8. Three thousand fifty-nine cases of AIDS had been reported in Santa Clara County, CA, through a certain date. Those cases will be our population. Of those cases, 6.4% obtained the disease through heterosexual contact and 7.4% are female. Out of the females with the disease, 53.3% got the disease from heterosexual contact. Find P(Person is female). Find P(Person obtained the disease through heterosexual contact). Find P(Person is female given person got the disease from heterosexual contact)

A hearing specialist conducts a study on hearing loss at certain frequencies among a group of patients in a retirement community. Of 94 residents tested, 10 had significant hearing loss at low frequencies but not high, 40 had a significant loss at high frequencies but not low, and 26 showed no significant hearing loss at all. How many residents had hearing loss at both low and high frequencies?

Page 160 #17 We predict that children exhibit more aggressive act after watching a violent television show. The scores for ten children were recorded before they watched a violent show and then after they watched a violent show. Aggression was measured in terms of number of aggressive acts (e.g. hitting, yelling, kicking etc). Sample 1 (after TV show): 5,6,4,4,7,3,2,1,4,1 Sample 2 (before TV show): 4,6,3,2,4,1,0,0,5,2 Is this a one-tailed or two-tailed test?

Fewer young people are driving. In 1995, 63.9% of people under 20 years old who were eligible had a driver's license. Bloomberg reported that percentage had dropped to 41.7% in 2016. Suppose these results are based on a random sample of 1,200 people under 20 years old who were eligible to have a driver's license in 1995 and again in 2016.

2. A study for adverse reactions assigned adults at random to one of two common pain relievers (ibuprofen and acetaminophen). It was found that out of 733 adults who were administered ibuprofen, 103 of them experienced an adverse reaction, and out of 732 adults who were administered acetaminophen, 85 of them experienced an adverse reaction. Let p1 denote the proportion of adults who experience an adverse reaction when taking ibuprofen and let p2 denote the proportion of adults who experience an adverse reaction when taking acetaminophen. Suppose we want to answer the following questions. i) Test, at the 3% level of significance, whether the proportion of adults who experience an adverse reaction when taking ibuprofen is greater than the proportion of adults who experience an adverse reaction when taking acetaminophen. ii) Calculate the 97% confidence interval for p1 - P2. The table below provides the information needed to perform the hypothesis test: Value x1 103.0000 85.0000 733.0000…
