When doing blood testing for a viral infection, the procedure can be made more efficient and less expensive by combining partial samples of different blood specimens. If samples from three people are combined and the mixture tests negative, we know that all three individual samples are negative. Find the probability of a positive result for three samples combined into one mixture, assuming the probability of an individual blood sample testing positive for the virus is 0.04. Report the answer as a per

A group of scientists are interested in finding out whether the days of rainfall during the spring could predict the amount of maple syrup produced in the fall. Every year for fifteen years, they count the total days of rainfall during the spring season preceding the maple syrup collection and measure the amount of maple syrup produced during the fall. Which type of statistical test should they use to analyze their data?

A firm produces bolts whose length x is normally distributed with a Me = 78.3 mm and a SD = 1.4mm. If any bolt longer than 80mm has to be discarded, what proportion of the firm's production will be lost?

The test for a certain disease is 86% accurate.  A hospital tests a sample of 5000 patients for this disease and the incidence rate of the disease is 12%. Fill in the following table showing the results of this disease testing.   Disease No Disease Total Test Positive       Test Negative       Total       A. What percent of these patients tests positive? Round to the nearest 0.1%.   C. If a patient tests negative, what is the percent chance they have the disease? Round to the nearest 0.1%   D.Suppose you select a patient at random from this sample, what is the probability the patient has the disease or tests positive? Use three significant digits.

Sean is the star shortstop for his baseball team. He notices that his team typically scores about half as many runs as he has singles, and that his team is about 10% more likely to win a game for each run scored.  How likely is it that the team wins if he has 6 singles?  How many singles did Sean hit if the team was 70% likely to win?

A new screening test for Lyme disease is developed for use in the general population. The sensitivity and specificity of the new test are 60% and 70%, respectively. Three hundred people are screened at a clinic during the first year the new test is implemented. Assume the true prevalence of Lyme disease among clinic attendees is 10%. Calculate the number of false positives.

Researchers have been studying the reliability of a new medical test. On their last study, they found that the test accurately identified those with the disease 92% of the time, and it accurately identified those without the disease only 74% of the time. There were 1,000 total people in this study, and 200 of them had the disease. Complete the table below using this information. Then, use your completed table to help you answer the questions. Disease Is Present Healthy (Disease Is Not Present) 184 Positive Test Result 16 Negative Test Result ९ Enter text [more.. 592 a) If an individual does not have the disease, what is the probability that the test suggests that the disease is present? Give your answer as a percent rounded to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. Be sure to include the % when inputting your answer. 0.26 X b) If the test result suggests that the disease is present, what is the probability that the patient does not have the disease? Give your answer as a percent rounded…

A music fan claims that R&B songs and Rap songs differ in terms of their positivity.  The individual collected two independent random samples from the population of all songs on Spotify.  Fifteen R&B songs and another fifteen Rap songs were collected and their Valence was recorded.  Remember, the variable Valence is measured on a 0 to 1 scale.  Songs with high valence sound more positive (e.g. happy, cheerful, euphoric), while songs with low valence sound more negative (e.g. sad, depressed, angry). We will subtract (R&B – Rap) and use the 10% significance level.  Assume the Central Limit Theorem conditions hold.  The data set is called RBRapSample31.  Please import the data set into Rguroo or find it in our group.   Define the population parameter in context and symbols in one sentence.   State the hypotheses you would use to test the claim that a difference exists in the mean Valence between R&B and Rap songs using correct notation.

When doing blood testing for a viral infection, the procedure can be made more efficient and less expensive by combining partial samples of different blood specimens. If samples from three people are combined and the mixture tests negative, we know that all three individual samples are negative. Find the probability of a positive result for three samples combined into one mixture, assuming the probability of an individual blood sample testing positive for the virus is 0.06. Round the answer to four decimal place accuracy.

Consider a medical test with a false positive rate of 1% and a false negative rate of 2%. The frequency of the condition in people who take this test is 3% Q4. If this test was given to 100,000 healthy people, how many false diagnoses would there be? Q5. What is the overall percentage of people who test "positive" who are actually negative for the condition? Q6. What is the overall percentage of people who test "negative" who are actually positive for the condition? # wrong diag. = ??? % pos. = ??? % % pos. = ??? %
