Concept explainers

Contingency Table

A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.

Binomial Distribution

Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

5.28 Risks and insurance. The idea of insurance is that we all face risks that are unlikely but carry high cost. Think of a fire destroying your home. So we form a group to share the risk: we all pay a small amount, and the insurance policy pays a large amount to those few of us whose homes burn down. An insurance company looks at the records for millions of homeowners and sees that the mean loss from fire in a year is μ = $250 per house and that the standard deviation of the loss is σ = $1000. (The distribution of losses is extremely right-skewed: most people have $0 loss, but a few have large losses.) The company plans to sell fire insurance for $250 plus enough to cover its costs and profit. If the company sells 25,000 policies, what is the approximate probability that the average loss in a year will be greater than $270?
According to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Air Travel Consumer Report, the nation’s 12 largest airlines recorded an on-time arrival percentage of 77.4% in 2001. Of interest is to estimate the mean delay time for the 22.6% of all flights that did not arrive on time during 2013. A simple random sample of 28 late arriving flights was selected, and the mean delay time of this sample of 28 flights was 14.2 minutes, with a sample standard deviation of s= 6.4 minutes. Use this information to calculate and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the mean delay time for all flights that did not arrive on time during 2013.
A purchasing manager for a large university is investigating which brand of LCD projector to purchase to equip their classrooms. Of major concern is the longevity of the light bulbs used in the projectors. The purchasing manager has narrowed down the choice of projector to two brands, Infocus and Proxima, and wishes to determine if there is any difference between the two brands in the mean lifetime of the bulbs used. The purchasing manager obtained eight projectors of each brand for testing over the last several academic terms. The number of hours the bulbs lasted on each of the eight projectors is given in the table. Lifetimes of light bulbs (hours) Infocus 745, 955, 1085, 756, 901, 839, 858, 931 Proxima 1012, 988, 957, 920, 878, 1130, 657, 743 Send data to calculator Assume that the two populations of lifetimes are normally distributed and that the population variances are equal. Can we conclude, at the 0.01 level of significance, that u, the mean lifetime of light bulbs in Infocus…

9.15 HPV infections in women. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted infection. Certain types of HPV can cause genital warts in both men and women and cervical cancer in women. The U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) contacted a representative sample of 1921 women between the ages of 14 and 59 years and asked them to provide a self-collected vaginal swab specimen. Of these specimens, 515 tested positive for HPV, indicating a current HPV infection. a. Give the probability, risk, and odds that a randomly selected American woman between the ages of 14 and 59 years has a current HPV infection. b. The survey broke down the data by age group: Age group (years) 14–19 20-24 25–29 30–39 40-49 50–59 Percent HPV positive 24.5 44.8 27.4 27.5 25.2 19.6 Give the risk and the odds of being HPV positive for women in each age group. Which age group has the highest risk, and has the highest odds, of testing positive for HPV?
A particular paper included the accompanying data on the tar level of cigarettes smoked for a sample of male smokers who subsequently died of lung cancer. Assume it is reasonable to regard the sample as representative of male smokers who die of lung cancer.

4. 0 There is some indication that as countries' levels of literacy increases, authoritarian tendencies decline among the population. The following data show literacy (measured in number of literate people per 10 people) and authoritarian scores on a standard authoritarinaism- measuring scale from 8 countries. The data are: Xiiteracy : 9.2, 7.5, 8.8, 6.5, 4.3, 5.9, 9.7, 8.5 XAuth: 2.1, 3.4, 2.5, 7.3, 8.9, 5.7, 1.3, 2.5 Is there a reliable relationship between the two variables? If yes, what would the predicted authoritarian score of a country where only quarter of the country is literate? What about for a country where the literacy rate is %100? Use alpha = .05.
