Pertains to Quesions (1 - 6):

A produce distributor claims that only 10% of its apples bruise during shipping. A high-end food retailer has recently had a lot of complaints about the condition of their apples. The retailer decided to perform a hypothesis test in order to determine whether the true proportion of bruised apples is greater than 10%. A random sample of 300 apples were collected and 42 of them were bruised. Perform the appropriate hypothesis test with a 0.05 significance level.

Answer on paper.

Pertains to Quesions (7 - 13):

Syringe-exchange programs represent one attempt to slow the spread of HIV infection among intravenous drug users. A study in The New England Journal of Medicine found that 68% of a random sample of syringes that were not distributed by the exchange were HIV-positive. After the syringe-exchange program was underway, a random sample found that 164 out of 338 needles were HIV-positive. Test the hypothesis, with a 0.005 significance level, that the proportion of HIV-infected needles has decreased after the exchange program was in operation.
