- Errors in medical prescriptions occur relatively frequently. In a study, two groups of doctors had similar err rates and one group switched to e-prescriptions while the other continued with hand-written prescriptions. C year later, the number of errors was measured. The results are given in the two-way table. No Error Error 254 Electronic 3594 Written 1478 2370 a). Fill in the row and column totals. b). What proportion of all the prescriptions had errors in them? c). What proportion of electronic prescriptions had errors in them? d). What proportion of written prescriptions had errors in them? e). What proportion of the prescriptions with errors were written prescriptions?arrow_forward1) The data below come from a study that investigated the usefulness of MRI to diagnose breast cancer. Of the 650 women in the study, 13 had breast cancer, and the MRI exam detected breast cancer in 12 of these women. Of the 637 women who did not have breast cancer, the MRI correctly identified that no cancer was present for 547 of them. The accompanying table summarizes this information. Breast Cancer Present Breast Cancer NOT Present Total MRI Indicated Breast Cancer 12 90 102 MRI Did NOT Indicate Breast Cancer 1 547 548 Total 637 650 Suppose that an MRI exam is used to decide between the two hypotheses. HO: A woman does not have breast cancer. Ha: A woman has breast cancer. A. In the context of this problem explain what a Type I error would mean B. In the context of this problem explain what a Type II error would mean.arrow_forwardC8. According to the Pew Research Center (2015), recent immigrants are better educated than earlier immigrants to the United States. The change was attributed to the availability of better education in each region or country of origin. The percentage of immigrants 25 years of age and older who completed at least high school is reported in this table for 1970 to 2013. Write a statement describing the change over time in the percentage who completed at least a high school degree. 1970 1980 1990 2000 2013 Mexico 14 17 26 30 48 Other Central/South America 57 53 60 66 Asia 75 72 75 82 84 48 68 81 87 95 Europe 36 48 52 58 72 Caribbean 81 91 88 85 85 Africa Source: Pew Research Center, Modern Immigration Wave Brings 59 Million to U.S., Driving Population Growth and Change Through 2065, 2015.

- The National Safety Board wants to determine the effect of seat belt use on saving lives. One study showed data on children under the age of 5 who were involved in car accidents in which at least one fatality occurred. Below is the table: X1 Survivors (0) Fatalities (1) Total No belt (0) Adult belt (1) Child seat (2) 1129 509 1638 X2 432 73 505 733 139 872 Total 2294 721 3015 Answer in 2 decimal places. a) Determine the probability that a child will be in a child seat. b) Determine the probability that X1 = 0 given X2 = 0 c) What is the probability of X1 = 1 given X2 = 0?arrow_forwardYou may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. The Consumer Reports Restaurant Customer Satisfaction Survey is based upon 148,599 visits to full-service restaurant chains.† One of the variables in the study is meal price, the average amount paid per person for dinner and drinks, minus the tip. Suppose a reporter for a local newspaper thought that it would be of interest to her readers to conduct a similar study for restaurants located in her city. The reporter selected a sample of 8 seafood restaurants, 8 Italian restaurants, and 8 steakhouses. The following data show the meal prices ($) obtained for the 24 restaurants sampled. Italian Seafood Steakhouse $13 $15 $24 14 19 18 16 18 22 17 25 24 17 22 21 19 16 23 16 18 26 32 11 34 Use ? = 0.05 to test whether there is a significant difference among the mean meal price for the three types of restaurants.

A British study of this question compared 98 drivers and 83 conductors of London double-decker buses. The conductors' jobs require more physical activity. The article reporting the study gives the data as "Mean daily consumption (+ se)." Some of the study results appear below. Drivers Total calories 2821 +44 Alcohol (grams) 0.24 0.06 Conductors 2844 +48 0.39 ± 0.11 Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in mean daily alcohol consumption between drivers and conductors.arrow_forward

Body fat percentages using each of these methods for 16 athletes (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper) are given in the accompanying table. You can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes.
