An ecologist is studying the impact of local polluted waters on the growth of alligators. The length of adult male alligators typically follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 2 feet. The ecologist wants to estimate the mean length of this population of alligators. Suppose she samples n alligators at random and uses the sample mean, X to as an estimator for u. a. What is the bias and variance of the estimator? (Note, these may be a function of n.) b. If n = 4, what is the probability that the estimator is within one foot of the true mean? (I.e. find P(|X – µ| < 1). c. What sample size, n, is required for the estimator to be within one foot of the true mean with 95% probability? (I.e. find the value of n that satisfies P(|X – µ| < 1) = 0.95.) d. Suppose the ecologist ends up sampling n = 9 alligators and calculates a sample mean of ī = 10.4 feet. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. e. Give an interpretation for the interval obtained in (d).
Ex. Derive the MLE for a random sample from Exp(A) distribution that is subject to left truncation and right-censoring (LTRC); be sure to provide its variance estimate as well. Compare to the case where there is only right-censoring that we derived in the lecture notes earlier.
Suppose it is desired to estimate the variance of the tensile strength of a particular type of thread. For 21 pieces of this type of thread, E (X; – Xave)² = 2000. Suppose a hypothesis testing procedure is wished to be carried out to check whether or not it is safe to assume that the variability in tensile strength of thread is 110. Derive the condition that needs to be satisfied, expressed in terms of the value of s? (sample variance), such that the null hypothesis will be accepted. (Use 0.05 level of significance.) What is the maximum value of s? such that we still accept tensile strength variability to be 110?
21 - The average weekly income of 50 students randomly selected from a class is 250 TL with a variance of 16, a weekly average working time of 15 hours and a variance of 16. The average weight of the students was 60 kg and the variance was 9, and the average of their height was 160 cm and the variance was 25. Based on this information, which of the following is true of the variable with the greatest variation between observations? a) Income variable B) Income and working time variable NS) Height variable D) Working time variable TO) Weight variable

Let x = age in years of a rural Quebec woman at the time of her first marriage. In the year 1941, the population variance of x was approximately ?2 = 5.1. Suppose a recent study of age at first marriage for a random sample of 41 women in rural Quebec gave a sample variance s2 = 2.9. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the current variance is less than 5.1. Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) What are the degrees of freedom?

3) For a sample of 306 students in a basic business communications course, the sample regression line y = 58.813 + 0.2875x was obtained. Here y = final student score at the end of the course x = score on a diagnostic writing skills test given at the beginning of the course The coefficient of determination was 0.1158 and the estimated standard deviation of the estimator of the slope of population regression line was 0.04566. a) Define and interpret the estimates of the regression equation. b) Interpret the coefficient of determination. c) What will happen to the final student score if his diagnostic writing test score increases by 2? d) How can you inmprove this model?
A researcher found a significant correlation of .12 between gender (coded as 0 = ‘male’ and 1 = ‘female’) and number of friends at university. If the assigned values of gender were changed to 1 = ‘female’ and 2 = ‘male’, how would this affect the correlation? The strength of the relationship would become weaker The amount of variance explained by the relationship would increase It would become nonsignificantThe sign would change to become negative A researcher is trying to predict anxiety (measured on a 7-point scale) from exposure to stress (operationalised as the number of stressful life events participants can recall in the last week). She has found a correlation coefficient of r = .54 between anxiety and stress, with a standard deviation of 4.45 for anxiety and a variance of 17.21 for stress. What other information is needed to calculate b? The sums of squares of stressThe sums of products of anxiety and stress The covariance of anxiety and stressNo other information is…
Albumin is a liver protein that helps circulate vitamins throughout the body. Reduced Albumin has been associated with severe illness with Covid-19 patients. Suppose we wanted to conduct a study to compare the mean Albumin concentration (g/L) between a sample of adult patients hospitalized for Covid 19 (Sample Mean= 32.8, s=6.0) to the mean albumin concentration (g/L) of healthy adults (u=34.1, o=7.13). How many patients would need to enroll from the hospital to conduct this study with 99% confidence, and 80% power? A. 267 B. 120 C. 352 D. 225
