For each of the word problems, use a solution sheet to do the hypothesis test. The solution sheet is found in Appendix E, Solution Sheets. Please feel free to make copies of the solution sheets. For the online version of the book, it is suggested that you copy the.doc or the.pdf files.
A group of researchers research a common contagious disease. A newspaper found that 13 percent of Americans have been diagnosed with the disease in the last year. The researchers doubt that the percentage is really that high. It conducts its own survey. Out of 76 Americans surveyed, only two had been diagnosed with the disease. Would you agree with the newspaper's poll? In complete sentences, give three reasons why polls might give different results.
This exercise builds on another exercise in its source book, which isn't shown here.
