(a)Interpret the lift ratio of the first rule in the table. The lift ratio of the first rule in the table means that it is % likely that a representative votes no on the El Salvador bill given that he or she votes yes on the Contras bill, no on the Physician bill, and yes on the Satellite bill than a randomly selected representative. (b)What is the probability that a representative votes no on El Salvador aid given that they vote yes to aid to Nicaraguan Contra rebels and yes to the M-X missile program? Round your answer to two decimal places. (c)What is the probability that a representative votes no on El Salvador aid given that they vote no to the M-X missile program and yes to equal access to religious groups in schools? Round your answer to two decimal places. (d)What is the probability that a randomly selected representative votes yes on El Salvador aid? Round your answer to three decimal places. Freelance reporter Irwin Fletcher is examining the historical voting records of members of the U.S. Congress. For 175 representatives, Irwin has collected the voting record (yes or no) on 16 pieces of legislation. To examine the relationship between representatives' votes ondifferent issues, Irwin has conducted an association rules analysis with a minimum support of 40% and a minimum confidence of 90%.The data included the following bills:Budget: approve federal budget resolutionContras: aid for Nicaraguan contra rebelsEl_Salvador: aid to El SalvadorMissile: funding for M-X missile programPhysician: freeze physician fees• Religious: equal access to all religious groups at schools• Satellite: ban on anti-satellite weapons testingThe following table shows the top five rules with respect to lift ratio. The table displays representatives' decisions in a "bill-vote" format. For example, "Contras-y" indicates that the representative voted yes on a bill to support the Nicaraquan Contra rebels and "Physician-n"indicates a no vote on a bill to freeze physician fees.AntecedentConsequentSupport for A and C Confidence Lift RatioContras-y, Physician-n, Satellite-y El_Salvador-n0.400.951.98Contras-y, Missile-yEl_Salvador-n0.400.911.90Contras-y, Physician-nEl_Salvador-n0.440.911.90Missile-n, Religious-yEl_Salvador-y0.400.931.79Budget-y, Contras-y, Physician-nEl_Salvador-n0.410.901.89

A psychology teacher teaches two statistics classes back-to-back, lecture L1 at 09:00 am and lecture CL1 at 10 am. Suppose the probability that the instructor gives a good L1 lecture is 0.25. If L1 lecture is good, then CL1 lecture is also good with probability 0.50. However, if L1 lecture is bad, then there is an 90% chance that CL1 lecture will also be bad. a) What proportion of the CL1 lectures are good? b) Suppose CL1 lecture was good. What is the probability that L1 lecture was also good? c) What is the probability that at least one lecture is good (i.e., either L1 lecture is good or CL1 lecture is good, or both)?
4. If a randomly chosen athlete tests negative, what’s the probability that the student took a banned substance? Explain why it makes sense for the drug-testing process to be designed so that this probability is less than the one you found in Question 3.5. The district decides to immediately retest any athlete who tests positive. Assume that the results of an athlete’s two tests are independent. Find the probability that a student who gets a positive result on both tests actually took a banned substance. Based on your answer, do you think that an athlete who tests positive twice should be suspended from athletic competition for a year? Why or why not?
Just before a city referendum on a school budget, a local newspaper polls 450 voters in an attempt to predict whether the budget will pass. Suppose that, unknown to everyone, the budget actually has the support of 52% of the voters. What is the probability the newspaper's sample will lead the newspaper to predict defeat of the referendum, that is, what is the probability that the newspaper's sample results in a sample proportion p̂ less than 0.50 in favor of the referendum?

(ii) The event that an automobile owner purchases collision coverage is independent of the event that he or she purchases disability coverage. (iii) The probability that an automobile owner purchases both collision and disability coverages is 0.15.

After being rejected for employment, Appa Love learns that the Old West Credit Company has hired only 5 women among the last 25 new employees. She also learns that the pool of applicants is very large, with an approximately equal number of qualified men as qualified women.

That is, address the claim that the proportion of females hired is 50%. Use the sample data stated above. a. The null and alternative hypothesis would be: Ho : μ 0.5 H₁: p > 0.5 H₁ μ Σ+ Σ Α
