3. According to a Los Angeles Times study of more than 1 million medical dispatches from 2007 to 2012, the 911 response time for medical aid varies dramatically across Lo Angeles (IA Times website, November 2012). Under national standards adopted by the Los Angeles Fire Department, rescuers are supposed to arrive within six minutes to all medical emergencies. But the Times analysis found that in affluent hillside communities stretching from Griffith Park to Pacific Palisades, firefighters failed to hit that mark nearly 85% of the time. The following data show the response times, in minutes, for 10 emergency calls in the Griffith Park neighborhood. 11.8 10.3 10.7 10.6 11.5 8.3 10.5 10.9 10.7 11.2 a) Calculate the mean and mode b) calculate the Range, variance, and standard deviation (GO TO 4 DECIMALS FOR VALUES IN (X- XBAR)² COLUMN) c) calculate the Z score for 11.8? Based on the Z score, is the response time of 11.8 an outlier?

The success of an airline depends heavily on its ability to provide a pleasant customer experience. One dimension of customer service on which airines compete is on-time arrival. The file LateFlights contains a sample of data from delayed fights showing the number of minutes each delayed fight was late for two different airlines, Deita and Southwest.

An organization monitors many aspects of elementary and secondary education nationwide. Their 2000 numbers are often used as a baseline to assess changes. In 2000, 23% of students had not been absent from school even once during the previous month. In the 2004 survey, responses from 7792 randomly selected students showed that this figure had slipped to 22%. Officials would be concerned if student attendance were declining. Please refer to the following images:

In February 2021, the Chicago Tribune reported:“The overdose epidemic that has ravaged Chicago has not spared the nearby suburbs, some of which have death rates comparable to anything seen in the city, according to a report released this week by the Cook County Department of Public Health. ZIP codes in the towns of Worth, Broadview, Maywood, and Forest Park, areas that “have substantially lower median household incomes and higher poverty rates,” have been especially hard-hit, the report said.”In the article, they claimed that lower incomes were associated with higher overdose death rates and that overdose death rates are increasing over time. The data you have been analyzing wasn’t focused on Chicago, obviously. But do your results support the general gist of the statistical argument being made in this Tribune excerpt? Please address:• Do overdose death rates appear to be associated with per capita income (use scatterplot)?• Do overdose death rates appear to be increasing over time…
An Internet Service Provider (ISP) offers three plans, High Speed (H), Medium Speed (M) and Low Speed (L). Each customer has the option of changing plan each month, and using past data they have estimated the proportion of customers who change between plans as follows: 0.16 of those on H change to M, 0.12 change to L. 0.27 of those on M change to H, 0.09 change to L. 0.07 of those on L change to H, 0.27 change to M. All other customers stay on the same plan. (a) Construct a transition matrix A, such that if ck = (Hk, MkLk) describes the state at time k then ck+1 = Ack b sin (a) f 52 ?х (b) If at the moment 40 % of customers are on plan H, 30 % on plan M and 30 % on plan L, then what proportion are expected to be on each plan after 1 month?

6. A social worker looks at data in her state regarding the relationship between being in foster care and having a criminal record by the age of 25. "Aging out' refers to when a youth turns 18 years old and is expected to move out of foster care and start their lives on their own. Fictional data fro 1350 youths is shown below. Answer the following questions in the space below, labeling each response a, b, or c. What percentage of youths overall were adopted before aging out, and had a criminal record? What percentage of youths were in foster care until they were aged out? True or False: If foster care status and having a crime record were independent of each other, and 55% overall had no crime record, you would expect 55% of those who aged out in foster care to have no crime record. No crime record Crime record Total Foster care until ‘aged out’ 445 450 895 Adopted before aging out 300 155…
