- The first test a doctor would order to determine whether a person is infected with HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) is the ELISA test. It detects antibodies and antigens for HIV. A study in Statistical Science by J. Gastwirth estimated that, if the person is actually infected with HIV, this test produces a positive result 97.7% of the time. If a person is not infected with HIV, the test result is negative 92.6% of the time. According the the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC), an estimated 1.1 million Americans out of a population of 321 million were infected with HIV in 2015. Using the information above, determine the probability that a randomly selected person whose ELISA test is positive actually is infected with HIV? a. What is the probability that a randomly selected American is infected with HIV? b. Using the answer to part (a) and the conditional probabilities of positive and negative ELISA test results, fill out the contingency table below: ELISA Test Result…arrow_forwardHow can I solve this question?

Predict the median income of a region in which 20% of adults 25 years and older have at least a bachelor's degree.arrow_forward
- In Class Exercise You are asked to evaluate the effect of a fast acting blood pressure medication. You take a random sample of 200 people from the population and assign half of them at random to take the pill. Of the 100 you told to take the pil| 25 refuse and 75 take it. At the end of a week you check the blood pressure of the group assigned to get the pill and it is 120 on average and the blood pressure of the group assigned to control is 127.5 on average. 1. What is Y;, what is Z;, what is D;? 2. What is the first stage? Estimate and interpret 3. What is the reduced form? Estimate and interpret. 4.

A scout is assessing two players—Tabitha and Lauren—who play for different teams in different leagues. The scout wonders if they have similar or different shot selections. They take a random sample of Tabitha's games and a separate random sample of Lauren's games. They tally how many of each type of shot the players attempted in those games. Here is a summary and the results of a chi-square test: Chi-square test: Shot vs. player Tabitha Lauren 333-point 888 121212 Expected 10.3410.3410, point, 34 9.669.669, point, 66 222-point 404040 373737 Expected 39.8339.8339, point, 83 37.1737.1737, point, 17 111-point 121212 777 Expected 9.839.839, point, 83 9.179.179, point, 17 �2=2.097, DF=2, P-value=0.350χ2=2.097, DF=2, P-value=0.350\chi, squared, equals, 2, point, 097, comma, start text, space, D, F, end text, equals, 2, comma, start text, space, P, negative, v, a, l, u, e, end text,…arrow_forwardPlease give correct Answers and Answer both parts. A B 6.13 Taste test. Some people report that just one sip, they can detect the difference between a diet and a regular Coke. A researcher wanted to test this claim, so he chose 80 persons at random. He then filled 80 simple white cups with soda, half diet and half regular, and asked each person to take one taste from their cup and identify the soda as diet or regular based on a random assignment. The drink was accurately identified by 53 of the participants. (a) Do these data show that these folks are any better or worse at telling the difference between diet and regular soda than random guessing? (b) Explain the significance of the p-value in this context.arrow_forward
- MAKE SURE YOU SELECT 2 ANSWERS FOR THIS QUESTION - Type of test and hypothesis. Professor Diff E. Cult wonders if male and female students earn significantly different grades when taking the same course with the same instructor. He randomly samples 160 males and 100 females from selected classes. The males receive 20 As, 32 Bs, 70 Cs, 30 Ds, and 8 Fs. The females receive 20 As, 28 Bs, 30 Cs, 10 Ds, and 12 Fs. His hypothesis is that gender and grades are related. Choose the type of test you should use to test this hypothesis? Then choose the correct hypotheses in symbol notation (or words if symbol is not appropriate).
