According to the website of the Lt. Governor of the State of Hawai'i, the statehas the highest rate of homelessness per capita in the nation. Unfortunately,the state is also sometimes a target by the homeless from other states who tryto get to Hawai'i for its perennial nice weather. Such people are identified andface either being arrested or given a free one-way ticket back to whereverthey came from.At one homeless shelter in Hawai'i, there are 12 individuals from New Yorkand 17 from Louisiana. Of these individuals, what is the probability that 7individuals from New York and 12 from Louisiana accept to be given a freeone-way ticket back to where they came from in order to avoid beingarrested?Note: If your answer has up to four decimal places, please enter it in the box belowwithout rounding the number. However, if your answer has more than four decimalplaces, please round your answer to four decimal places.

A national study found that treating people appropriately for high blood pressure reduced their overall mortality by 20%. Treating people adequately for hypertension has been diffcult because it is estimated that 50% of hypertensives do not know they have high blood pressure, 50% of those who do know are inadequately treated by their physicians, and 50% who are appropriately treated fail to follow this treatment by taking the right number of pills. Answer the following questions ( please answer all the parts 1,2 and 3): 1) What is the probability that among 10 true hypertensives at least 50% are being treated appropriately and are complying with this treatment?2) What is the probability that at least 7 of the 10 hypertensives know they have high blood pressure? 3) If the preceding 50% rates were each reduced to 40% by a massive education program, then what effect would this change have on the overall mortality rate among true hypertensives; that is, would the mortality rate decrease…
A gym wishes to evaluate the effectiveness of its programs. When a new member joins the gym, they meet with a trainer who designs a recommended routine based on the member’s current fitness and their goals. The recommended routines can be classified into high, medium, or low effort. Historically, 68% of the new members get a high effort routine, 21% get a medium effort routine, and the rest get a low effort routine. After the first six months as members, the gym surveys the members’ adherence to the recommended routine. The gym classifies a member’s performance as optimal if they follow the recommended routine for the six months, or as inferior otherwise. According to the historical results of the survey, 84% of the members with a low effort routine, 22% of the members with a medium effort routine, and 69% of the members with a high effort routine report optimal performance. After the first six months of joining the gym, a member can obtain different results: they can either…
please help with 3, 4, and 5 High school seniors with strong academic records apply to the nation’s most selective colleges in greater numbers each year. Because the number of slots remains relatively stable, some colleges reject more early applicants. Suppose that for a recent admissions class, an Ivy League college received 2851 applications for early admission. Of this group, it admitted 1033 students early, rejected 854 outright, and deferred 964 to the regular admission pool for further consideration. In the past, this school has admitted 18% of the deferred early admission applicants during the regular admission process. Counting the students admitted early and the students admitted during the regular admission process, the total class size was 2375. Let E, R, and D represent the events that a student who applies for early admission is admitted early, rejected outright, or deferred to the regular admissions pool. Answer questions 3-5. 3.Use the data to estimate P(E), P(R),…
Suppose you work for an organization that runs tests for life-threatening diseases and then discusses the results with their patients. You have just tested a 45 year old male patient, father of six, and according to the test he is terminally ill. Statistics shows that the man has seven months to live. The above scenario and in that context, explain how your knowledge of biostatistics might inform how you address the situation and how you might advance a Biblical worldview. Fell free to add details or assumptions left ambiguous in the prompt. Integrate at least one scholarly source on each thread pertaining to this topic and cite in AMA format.
"Tech D" has collected data concerning their 622 employees: 305 are married; 332 are over 40 years old; 311 are female; 196 are married and over 40; 181 are married and female; 235 are over 40 and female; 126 are married, over 40, and female. How many employees are over 40 and not married? You may want to draw a Venn Diagram to illustrate this situation.
A serious side effect of allergy medicines is that they cause drowsiness, which can cause many problems for the individuals taking them. In recent years, a new non-drowsy allergy medicine has been developed. The company that created the medicine claims to be the first, once-a-day, non-drowsy allergy medicine (call it Medicine A). An independent research group wanted to check on this claim by comparing Medicine A with another allergy medicine not advertised as non-drowsy (call it Medicine B). A random sample of 3,193 allergy sufferers was selected and each individual was randomly assigned to take either Medicine A or Medicine B. From the Medicine A group, 114 of 1,604 reported drowsiness and from the Medicine B group, 155 of 1,589 reported drowsiness. a) Calculate and label the two sample proportions separately. Next, calculate the difference between these sample proportions by subtracting (Medicine A – Medicine B). Complete these calculations by hand, label each of them, and present…

Even though Puerto Rico is a commonwealth of the United States, there are many cultural differences between the states on the continent and the island of Puerto Rico. These differences include the way consumers handle problems with purchases. Two researchers surveyed owners of DVD players in the Northeast United States and in Puerto Rico. They asked those who had experienced problems with their DVD players whether they complained. The results are given in the table below. Location Complained? United States Puerto Rico No 94 33 Yes 330 64
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…
A school Psychologist is interested in the effect of violent television programs on a child's agression depending on if the show is a cartoon or not. Eighty children were recruited and were divided into equal groups. Half of the children watched a violent television program while the other half watched a non- violent program. Half of the children watched a cartoon while the other half watched a show that was not a cartoon. The children were then placed in a small group and the researcher measured the level of agressiveness of each child.

Kentville, a community of 10,000 people, resides next to a krypton mine, and there is a concern that the emission from the krypton smelter have resulted in adverse effects. Specifically, Kryptonosis seems to have killed 12 of Kentville’s inhabitants last year. A neighboring community, Lanesburg, has 25,000 inhabitants and is far enough from the smelter to not be affected by the emission. In Lanesburg, only three people last year died of Kryptonosis. Given that the number of deaths in Kentville and their causes last year were: Heart attack=7 Accidents=4 Kryptonosis=12 Other=6 What is the risk of dying of Kryptonosis in Kentville relative to non-contaminated locality?What is the risk of dying of Kryptonosis in Kentville relative to deaths due to other causes? How many times the chance of dying of Kryptonosis compared to dying of accidents ? How many times the chance of dying of Kryptonosis compared to Other causes?
