6. A home improvement store carries two models of power drills. Lifetime (i.e., time to failure) of Model 1 drills are exponentially distributed with a rate of of 0.15 failures per year, whereas Model 2 drills have a lifetime that is log-normally distributed with parameters u = 0.75 and o = 1.2. (a) Which model of power drill is more likely to fail within a year? (b) Which brand produces cables that are more likely to last at least 2 years? (c) Which model of power drill has longer expected lifetime?

4. Consider the constant rate of decrease of certain microorganisms. At the start, there are 12,000 microorganisms in a certain place after 30 seconds, the population decreased to 8,000. If the number of microorganisms is directly proportional to the constant rate of decay and such a decrease in a number continues at the same rate, then how many microorganisms will there be after 45 seconds?

Suppose you believe that population abundance (A) of a particular species is a linear function of vegetation coverage (V) and the presence of a predators (P). Surveys where conducted across 20 sites and found the following information: a) There was an average of cover of .406 (40.6%) of the area, with an average 6.8 predators and 61.55 individuals in our target population. b) ⟨V2⟩=0.231⟨V2⟩=0.231, ⟨P2⟩=76.300⟨P2⟩=76.300, ⟨VP⟩=2.933⟨VP⟩=2.933, ⟨VA⟩=36.329⟨VA⟩=36.329, ⟨PA⟩=379.300⟨PA⟩=379.300 Set up the appropriate system of equations needed for a the linear regression of a model of the form A=aV+bP+cA=aV+bP+c.

A golfer practices different parts of their game for hours. Specifically, the golfer practices:(1) putting, (2) their short game, and (3) their iron game. The amount of time spent on each partof their game is exponentially distributed. If the golfer is practicing their putting, they will alwaysswitch to their short game after an average of 30 minutes. When the golfer practices their short game,they do so for an average of 45 minutes, and then switches to putting with probability 0.6 or to theiriron game with probability 0.4. When they practice their iron game, they do so for an average of 60minutes. After practicing their iron game, the golfer will switch to putting or to their short game withequal probability.(a) Draw the CTMC rate diagram, clearly label your states and transition rates (qij ’s)(b) Find the transition rates out of the states (vi’s) and transition probabilities (Pij ’s).(c) Find the limiting probabilities (make sure to write out the balance equations).(d) In the long…
Logistic and Cox proportional hazards regression are used widely in medical and epidemiologic studies for analyzing the relationship between several risk factors and a time-related dichotomous response variable. Suppose we are studying the risk factors associated with mortality of Covid-19 patients admitted to hospitals in the Philippines. The response variable is whether or not the patient with Covid-19 died at the end of their hospitalization. Other variables recorded were: the time to death of the patient, sex, age, vaccinated or not vaccinated, presence of comorbidities, severity of Covid-19, variant of Covid-19, etc. In this study, would you prefer using the logistic regression or the Cox PH regression? Justify your answer. Site some of the advantages and disadvantages of preferring one method over the other. NOTE: other answer aside from the previous one on the tutor here in bartleby.

An ecologist is studying the impacts of air pollution on giant panda populations, specifically on panda birth rates. Due to the historical interest in giant pandas, the ecologist has access to data from the last 30 years that allows her to fit two models to the evolution of giant panda populations over time (one for 30 years and one for the last 5 years after a new chemical plant was built close to the panda habitat). She will use these models to determine the long-term impacts of this pollution on panda populations. She has the following information to help her model the two sets of population dynamics data on adult and baby pandas : i. 1) Without pollution, for every 1 adult female panda a year earlier, 0.75 baby pandas are born each year (reproduction rate = 0.75). 2) With pollution, for every 1 adult female panda a year earlier, 0.7 baby pandas are born each year (reproduction rate = 0.7). 3) 3 in 4 of the adult female pandas survive to the next year. 1 in 3 female baby pandas…
