he Wall Street Journal Corporate Perceptions Study 2011 surveyed readers and asked how each rated the Quality of Management and the Reputation of the Company for over world-wide corporations. Both the Quality of Management and the Reputation of the Company were rated on an Excellent, Good, and Fair categorical scale. Assume the sample data for respondents below applies to this study. Excel File: data12-13.xlsx a. Use level of significance and test for independence of the quality of management and the reputation of the company. Compute the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals). Do not round intermediate calculations. The -value is - Select your answer - What is your conclusion? - Select your answer - b. If there is a dependence or association between the two ratings, discuss and use probabilities to justify your answer.

Overproduction of uric acid in the body can be an indication of cell breakdown. this may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma.† over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken nine blood tests for uric acid. the mean concentration was x = 5.35 mg/dl. the distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with σ = 1.87 mg/dl. (a) find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood. what is the margin of error? (round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit upper limit margin of error (b) what conditions are necessary for your calculations? (select all that apply.) σ is unknown n is large σ is known normal distribution of uric acid uniform distribution of uric acid (c) interpret your results in the context of this problem. there is not enough information to make an interpretation. the probability that this interval contains the true average uric acid level for this patient is 0.05. the probability that this interval contains the true average uric acid level for this patient is 0.95. there is a 95% chance that the confidence interval is one of the intervals containing the population average uric acid level for this patient. there is a 5% chance that the confidence interval is one of the intervals containing the population average uric acid level for this patient. (d) find the sample size necessary for a 95% confidence level with maximal margin of error e = 1.10 for the mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood. (round your answer up to the nearest whole number.) blood tests
