Why do zebras have stripes? One hypothesis is that stripes help keep biting flies away. Trinity wants to test this hypothesis with an experiment. She will use 15 horses as the subjects in her experiment, and assign them to 3 treatments, as follows: 5 horses will wear a fabric coat that is printed with zebra stripes, as shown above 5 horses will wear nothing 5 horses will wear a fabric coat that is printed with a solid grey colour Trinity will record a video of each horse for 1 hour. She will use the video to determine the number of biting flies that land on the horse's back. a) What types of experimental group do each of (i), (ii), and (iii) represent? Choose from: Main experimental treatment group Classical control Positive control Negative control b) Why is it important for Trinity to include group (iii) in her study? Provide a brief explanation. Hint: you can describe potential scenarios for results to help explain why group (iii) is needed. c) Can you suggest ONE potential…
7. A new drug study was conducted by a drug company. In the study, 10 people were chosen at random to take Vitamin X for 3 months and then have their cholesterol levels checked. In addition, 10 different people were randomly chosen to take Vitamin Y for 3 months and then have their cholesterol levels checked. All 20 people had cholesterol levels between 8 and 10 before taking one of the vitamins. The drug company wanted to see which of the 2 vitamins had the greatest impact on lowering people's cholesterol. The following data was collected: Vitamin X 7.27.5 5.2 6.5 7.7 10 6.47.6 7.77.8 Vitamin Y 4.8 4.44.5 5.1 6.5 8.03.1 4.6 5.2 6.1 (a) Draw a box-and-whisker plot for both sets of data on the same number line. (b) Use the double box-and-whisker plots to compare the 2 vitamins and provide a conclusion for the drug company. (e) State the skewness of both distributions and justify your answer.
A murder scene is found with two types of blood - that of the victim and that ofthe murderer. As luck would have it, the unidentified blood has an incredibly rareblood disorder, only found in 1 in every million men. The capital and surroundingareas have a population of 20 million - and the police are sure the murderer isfrom the capital. The police have already started cataloging all citizens' bloodtypes for their new super crime-database. They already have nearly 1 millionmale samples in there - and bingo - one man, Mr XY, is a match. He is promptlymarched off to trial, there is no other evidence, but the jury are told that the oddsare 1 in a million that he is innocent. He is duly convicted. The question is, howlikely is it that he did not commit this crime?

You are trying frantically to get dressed, and you need to reach into your sock drawer to get two matching socks in the dark. Your sock drawer contains 20 socks, consisting of 10 matched pairs. All of them are only black or white, and they are loose, disorganized randomly, and not bound together. This means you have 10 black and 10 white socks in your disorganized drawer. This makes 10 total matching pairs of 5 pairs of white and 5 pairs of black. 1. How can you guarantee success of picking a matching pair? In other words, what is the minimum number of socks needing to be picked to guarantee a matching pair? (Hint: There is a right answer to this question!) 2. Explain dependent and independent trials
A group of Industrial Organizational psychologists wanted to test if giving a motivational speech at the end of a meeting would encourage office workers to have a higher output to their work based on the numbers of sales each workers made. The group tested 10 participants that were in two conditions where one meeting ended in a motivational speech and another were no motivational speech was given. Here are the number of sales that was produced by the 10 participants for both conditions: Yes speech: 2, 6, 1, 9, 3, 12, 8, 0, 5, 1No speech: 3, 0, 5, 10, 1, 8, 2, 1, 9, 11Use the four steps of hypothesis testing to find out if there is a significant difference between the two groups, using APA format to answer the question.
A researcher randomly selected 158 personal vehicles and noted the type of vehicle and its color. The two-way table displays the data. A 5-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 has entries sedan, S U V, convertible, total. Column 2 is labeled Red with entries 14, 9, 20, 43. Column 3 is labeled Blue/Green with entries 31, 19, 6, 56. Column 4 is labeled Black/Gray with entries 22, 34, 3, 59. Column 5 is labeled Total with entries 67, 62, 29, 158. The columns are titled Vehicle color and the rows are titled vehicle type. Suppose a vehicle is randomly selected. Let event C = convertible and R = red. What is the value of P(R|C)?
