Two proposed computer mouse designs were compared by recording wrist extension in degrees for 24 people who each used both mouse types ("Comparative Study of Two Computer Mouse Designs," Comell Human Factors Laboratory Technical Report RP7992). The difference in wrist extension was computed by subtracting extension for mouse type B from the wrist extension for mouse type A for each student. The mean difference was reported to be 8.82 degrees. Assume that it is reasonable to regard this sample of 24 people as representative of the population of computer users. a. Suppose that the standard deviation of the differences was 10 degrees. Is there convincing evidence that the mean wrist extension for mouse type A is greater than for mouse type B?

Briefly explain why a different conclusion was reached in the hypothesis tests of Parts (a) and (b).\fSome people seem to believe that you can fix anything with duct tape. Even so, many were skeptical when researchers announced that duct tape may be a more effective and less painful alternative than liquid nitrogen, which doctors routinely use to freeze warts. The article "What a Fix-It; Duct Tape Can Remove Warts" (San Luis Obispo Tribune,October 15,2002] described a study conducted at Madigan Army Medical Center. Patients with warts were randomly assigned to either the duct tape treatment or the more traditional freezing treatment. Those in the duct tape group wore duct tape over the wart for 8 days, then removed the tape. soaked the area in water, and used an emery board to scrape the area. This process was repeated for a maximum of 2 months or until the wart was gone. Data consistent with values in the article are summarized in the following table: Treatment n Number with Wart Successfully Removed Liquid nitrogen freezing | 100 80 Duct tape 104 8.8 Do these data suggest that freezing is less successful than duct tape in removing warts? Test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of .01. (Hint: See Example 11.9.)The authors of the paper "Adolescents and MP3 Players: Too Many Risks, Too Few Precautions" (Pediatrics [2009]: e953-e958) concluded that more boys than girls listen to music at high volumes. This conclusion was based on data from independent random samples of 784 Dutch boys and 748 Dutch girls age 12 to 19. Of the boys, 307 reported that they almost always listen to music at a high volume setting. Of the girls, 331 reported listening to music at a high volume setting. Do the sample data support the authors' conclusion that the proportion of Dutch boys who listen to music at high volume is greater than this proportion for Dutch girls? Test the relevant hypotheses using a .01 significance level.After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, many charitable organizations conducted fundraising campaigns to raise money for emergency relief. Some of these campaigns allowed people to donate by sending a text message using a cell phone to have the donated amount added to their cell-phone bill. The report "Early Signals on Mobile Philanthropy: Is Haiti the Tipping Point?" (Edge Research, 2010) describes the results of a national survey of 1526 people that investigated the ways in which people made donations to the Haiti relief effort. The report states that 17% of Gen Y respondents (those born between 1980 and 1980) and 14% of Gen X respondents (those born between 1908 and 1979) said that they had made a donation to the Haiti relief effort via text message. The percentage making a donation via text message was much lower for older respondents. The report did not say how many respondents were in the Gen Y and Gen X samples, but for purposes of this exercise, suppose that both sample sizes were 400 and that it is reasonable to regard the samples as representative of the Gen Y and Gen X populations. a. Is there convincing evidence that the proportion of those in Gen Y who donated to Haiti relief via text message is greater than the proportion for Gen X? Use o= .01. b. Estimate the difference between the proportion of Gen Y and the proportion of Gen X that made a donation via text message using a 09% confidence interval. Provide an interpretation of both the interval and the associated confidence level.The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety issued a press release titled "Teen Drivers Often Ignoring Bans on Using Cell Phones" (June 0, 2008). The following quote is from the press release: Just 1-2 months prior to the ban's Dec. 1. 2006 start, 11 percent of teen drivers were observed using cell phones as they left school in the afternoon. About 5 months after the ban took effect, 12% of teen drivers were observed using cell phones. Suppose that the two samples of teen drivers (before the ban, after the ban) can be regarded as representative of these populations of teen drivers. Suppose also that 200 teen drivers were observed before the ban (so n, = 200 and 1 5 .11) and 150 teen drivers were observed after the ban. a. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion using a cell phone while driving before the ban and the proportion after the ban. b. Is zero included in the confidence interval of Part (c)? What does this imply about the difference in the population proportions
