Section 13-2 13-2.6 Game Attendance An athletic director suggests the median number for the paid attendance at 20 local football games is 3000. The data for a random sample are shown. At = 0.05, is there enough evidence to reject the claim? If you were printing the programs for the games, would you use this figure as a guide? 6210 3150 2700 3012 4875 3540 6127 2581 2642 2573 2792 2800 2500 3700 6030 5437 2758 3490 2851 2720 Source: Pittsburgh Post Gazette. 13-2.10 Lottery Ticket Sales A lottery outlet owner hypothesizes that she sells 200 lottery tickets a day. She randomly sampled 40 days and found that on 15 days she sold fewer than 200 tickets. At = 0.05, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the median is below 200 tickets? Section 13-3 Use the Wilcoxon rank sum test. 13-3.4 Lengths of Prison Sentences A random sample of men and women in prison was asked to give the length of sentence each received for a certain type of crime. At = 0.05, test the claim that there is no difference in the sentence received by each gender. The data (in months) are shown here.
