- A total of 150 participants are selected for a study of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. At baseline (study start), 24 are classified as hypertensive. At onc year, an additional 12 have developed hypertension and at 2 years another 8 have developed hypertension. What is the prevalence of hypertension at 2 years in the study?arrow_forwardyou randomly select 15 apple tree locations and 15 citrus tree locations from different forests. Each location is 1000 m² in size. Now you randomly create 10 zones within each forest (300 total) and measure plant biomass in each for three years (900 being the final tally) determine the population of interest, the dependent variable, the independent variable, and if the independent variable is being observed or controlled/manipulated, and number of replicates pseudoreplicates.arrow_forwardA research study was conducted about gender differences in 'sexting'. The researcher believed that the proportion of girls involved in 'sexting' is different from the proportion of boys involved. The data collected in the spring of among a random sample of middle and high school students in a large school district in is summarized next: out of 380 females 43 sent 'sexts' and out of 410 males 64 sent 'sexts'. Is the proportion of girls sending sexts different from the proportion of boys 'sexting'? Choose the appropriate procedure. Procedure: Assumptions: (select everything that applies) Population standard deviations are known Normal populations Sample sizes are both greater than 30 Population standard deviation are unknown but assumed equal Paired samples Population standard deviation are unknown Simple random samples The number of positive and negative responses are both greater than 10 for both samples Independent samplesarrow_forward
- A person with tuberculosis is given a chest x-ray. Four tuberculosis x-ray specialists examine each x-ray independently. If each specialist can detect tuberculosis 83% of the time when it is present, what is the probabilty that at least 1 of the specialists will detect a person positive.arrow_forwardIn the city of AZ, there are two supermarkets, X-Mart and Y-Mart. It is assumed that every shopper makes a purchase once a week at one of these supermarkets (not both).In a study, 100 samples of shoppers were taken over 10 weeks. From the study, it is known that if a shopper goes to X-Mart in one week, 85 people will continue to shop at X-Mart in the following week, and if a shopper goes to Y-Mart in one week, 70 people will continue to shop at Y-Mart in the following week.Create a transition probability table and matrix for this scenario, and then If in the first week Ivankov buys from X-Mart, what is the probability that Terry will buy from X-Mart in the third and fourth weeks?arrow_forwardA certain medical school accepts only 8% of applicants. A prep program claims that their students are admitted to this medical school at a higher rate. To test their claim at the 10% significance level, we select at random 144 students from the prep program (who all apply to this medical school), and we compute p, the proportion of the sample who are admitted to the medical school.arrow_forward

The university has a student cohort of 1000, and 100 students are sampled. Thirty students are 175cm, thirty are 160cm, fifteen are 163cm, ten are 180cm, ten are 158cm, and five are 170cm. To three significant figures, how many resamples of size 100 can one make from this data? 4.53 × 1058 3.72trillion 2.63 × 1051 135million 3.72 x 1048arrow_forwardAn undergraduate psychology course only gives the grades of A, B, C, or F. The department has determined that there should be 20% A's given, 30% B's given, 40% C's, and 10% F's given as final grades for the course. For the spring 2021 semester, 400 students took the course and 100 students received A's, 100 students received B's, 150 students received C's and 50 students received F's, so taose are my obsérved frequencies. We want to do a Chi-square Multinomial Goodness of Fit test to see if our grading guidelines match up with what is actually happening. What is the expected frequency for the grade of C category?

- Hydroxychloroquine is a drug sometimes used to treat malaria or rheumatoid arthritis. This drug has recently received some notoriety as a possible treatment for those suffering from Covid-19. A hydroxychloroquine tablet comes in a 200 mg strength, but hydroxychloroquine dosage may be anywhere from 200 to 1200 mg. Thus, a patient must take multiple pills. Suppose X is the number of pills taken by a randomly selected hydroxychloroquine patient. Then according to JJSDA, x has the following probability mass function, p(x), and cumulative distribution function F(x). 1 2 4 p(x) .04 .27 .35 .10 07 F(x) .04 .31 a .83 .93 1 a. If F is the cumulative distribution function of x, then what is the value of a? b. If p is the probability mass function for x, then evaluate b. c. What is the expected value of x? d. Calculate the variance of x. e. What is the variance of 0.7*x? f. The CDC 'randomly' checks the dosage of 10 hydroxychloroquine patients.

One method uses ultrasound, and the other method uses X-ray technology. The table gives body fat percentages for 16 athletes using each of these methods (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper). For purposes of this exercise, you can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes.
