Match the value on the left with the disease/condition on the right 

Please note that this question consists of three parts. You may use MINITAB to find a final answer. However you MUST show all the mathematical work to get to the final answer. Just giving the answer without adequate work/explanation may result in zero for the question.  In a college town, there is a central location where people can drop-off miscellaneous plastics that were not collected in regular weekly pick-ups. The authorities want to study the true proportion of households using the drop-off location for plastic recycling. They have taken a random sample of 120 households and asked them if they use drop-off facility. Of the sampled households, 45 said they use the drop-off bins.  Find a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of households using the drop-off location for plastic recycling. Interpret the above calculated interval in the context of the problem. The authorities believe about 35% of the households in the town are using the drop-off location for plastic recycling. Based on the interval in part 1, are the authorities correct? Explain using the interval.

Please note that this question consists of five parts. You may use MINITAB to find a final answer. However you MUST show all the mathematical work to get to the final answer. Just giving the answer without adequate work/explanation may result in zero for the question.  A cookie company claims that more than 60% of the cookies in their mixed cookie boxes are chocolate chip. A customer suspects this might not be true. To test the customer’s question, a box of cookies was randomly selected and the number of chocolate chip cookies was counted. Out of 70 cookies, 38 turn out to be chocolate chip. Set up appropriate null and alternative hypotheses that answers customer’s question. Are the conditions to carry out the above test satisfied? Show your work for checking the conditions rather simple “yes” or “no” answer. Calculate the test statistic (show the mathematical work) Calculate the p value for the test. You must clearly write down the probability statement for the p-value. You can use the appropriate distribution table or Minitab for the value. Write the final conclusion in the context of the problem (use 5% significance level).
