2.72 Foracertain population of employees, the percentage passing or failing a job competency exam,listed according to sex, were as shown in the accompanying table. That is, of all the peopletaking the exam, 24% were in the male-pass category. 16% were in the male-fail category, andso forth. An employee is to be selected randomly from this population. Let A be the event thatthe employee scores a passing grade on the exam and let M be the event that a male is selected.SexOutcome Male (M) Female (F) TotalPass (A)243660Fail (A)162440Total4060100a Are the events A and M independent?b Are the events A and F independent?

The table below gives the two-way classification of 400 randomly selected persons based on their status as a smoker or a nonsmoker and on the number of visits they made to their physicians last year. Suppose you must test the hypothesis at 5% level of significance whether there is a relationship between smoking and visits to the physician. Status Visits to the Physician 0-1 2-4 >=5 Smoker 25 60 75 Nonsmoker 110 90 40 The conclusion will be: a) Since 2 56.428 is not greater than 2 s =0.103. we then reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of 0.95.2 significance and conclude that smoking and visits to the physician are related. O b) Since x-= 56.428 is greater than xos ,=0.103, we then fail to reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance and conclude that smoking and visits to the physician are related.

Of the approximately 300 million current U.S. residents, only about 30,000 have ever appeared in a movie. Only 30 of the current U.S. residents having appeared in a movie have ever won an Oscar for Best Actor, which is an award presented annually to the American actor who delivered the most outstanding performance in a leading movie role. A person is randomly selected from the current U.S. residents. Let M represent the event the selected individual has appeared in a movie. Let O represent the event the selected individual has ever won an Oscar for Best Actor. Order the following probabilities from smallest to largest. I. P(O) II. P(M) III. P(MO) IV. P(O|M) (A) I, III, II, IV (B) IV, II, I, III (C) IV, III, I, II (D) I, II, IV, III (E) IV, I, III, II
A survey was done in regards to what type of animals are preferred as pets. Each respondent selected their top choice of animal for a pet. Respondents selected from: dog, cat, farret, fish, and bird. After the survey was completed, 41% picked dog, 34% picked cat, 4% picked farret, 8% picked fish, and 13% picked bird. Suppose three respondents were chosen at random. What is the probability that AT LEAST ONE of them picked dog? Round the answer to 3 decimal places.
