Assortative Mating: Assortative mating is a nonrandom mating pattern where individuals with similargenotypes and/or phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than what would be expected under arandom mating pattern. Researchers studying this topic collected data on eye colors of 204 Scandinavian menand their female partners. The table below summarizes the results (rows represent male eye color whilecolumns represent female eye color).

Marketing research has indicated that males and females may have different color preferences in visual advertising with males preferring brighter colors and females preferring softer tones. To test this theory, researchers surveyed females and males by asking them to rate two different visual advertisements for clothing items with the first ad primarily having bright red and blue lettering and graphics and the second primarily having pastel blue and yellow lettering and graphics. The results were as follows. Preferred BrightBlue and Red Preferred PastelBlue and Yellow Total Males 85 50 135 Females 65 80 145 Researchers suggested that males would be more likely to prefer the brighter colors than females. (a) If p1 represents the true proportion of males that prefer brighter colors in advertisements, and p2 represents the true proportion of females that prefer brighter colors in advertisements, state the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for this study.

This semester, we have talked about creating random samples as well as desirable qualities of random samples. Other than randomness, one quality of random samples that we have talked about is representation. Using your knowledge of that concept, consider this problem. At a college, 29% of the students are in their first year, 27% are in their second year, 25% in their third, and 19% in their fourth. You take a survey of students and when you classify them by year of study, you have 49, 70, 56, and 25 students in their first, second, third, and fourth years respectively. The table below highlights this information.

Ecologists conducted a study to investigate the potential ecological impact of golf courses. Investigators monitored the reproductive success of bluebirds in birdhouses at nine golf courses and ten similar birdhouses at nongolf sites. Data on nests in birdhouses occupied only by bluebirds are shown in the table. If the proportions of nests occupied is the same for golf and nongolf sites, what would be the expected count of birdhouse with 1 nest in nongolf locations?

True or False: Suppose I conducted a study using random assignment. This suggests that I took great effort to ensure that all of my subjects had an equal chance of being in either group.
Researchers studied the behavior of birds that were searching for seeds and insects in an Oregon forest. In this forest, 54% of the trees were Douglas firs, 40% were ponderosa pines, and 6% were other types of trees. At a randomly selected time during the day, the researchers observed 156 red-breasted nuthatches: 70 were in Douglas firs, 79 in ponderosa pines, and 7 in other types of trees. Do these data provide convincing evidence that nuthatches prefer particular types of trees when they’re searching for seeds and insects?
Sommelier4U is a company that ships its customers bottles of different types of wine and then has them rate the wines as “Like” or “Dislike.” For each customer, Sommelier4U trains a classification tree based on the characteristics and customer ratings of wines that the customer has tasted. Then, Sommelier4U uses the classification tree to identify new wines that the customer may Like. Sommelier4U recommends the wines that have a greater than 50% probability of being liked. Neal Jones, a loyal customer, has provided feedback on hundreds of different wines that he has tasted. Based on this feedback, Sommelier4U trained and validated the following classification tree: For these 178 wines, the tree only misclassifies two wines. These wines have the following characteristics: Wine 1: Proline = 735, Ash = 2.88, Flavanoids = 2.69, Magnesium = 118 Wine 2: Proline = 680, Ash = 2.29, Flavanoids = 2.63, Magnesium = 103 Based on this information, construct the confusion matrix based on the 178…
A study compares students who use a website and students who do not use the website. In addition to asking the students in the samples about GPA, each student was also asked how many hours he or she spent studying each day. The two samples (141 students who were users of the website and 68 students who were not users of the website) were independently selected from students at a large, public university. Although the samples were not selected at random, they were selected to be representative of the two populations. n USE SALT For the sample of users of the website, the mean number of hours studied per day was 1.46 hours and the standard deviation was 0.83 hours. For the sample of students who do not use the website, the mean was 2.77 hours and the standard deviation was 0.99 hours. Do these sample data provide convincing evidence that the mean time spent studying for users of the website at this university is less than the mean time spent studying by students at the university who do…
Assortative mating is a nonrandom mating pattern where individuals with similar genotypes and/or phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than what would be expected under a random mating pattern. Researchers studied this topic and collected data on Scandinavian men and their female partners. They found out 60% of Scandinavian men have blue eyes. Among those men with blue eyes, 80% of them choose female partners with blue eyes. Among those Scandinavian men whose eye color is not blue, 20% of them have partners with blue eyes. Given that a man’s partner has blue eyes, what’s that probability this man has blue eyes? If 60% of Scandinavian men have blue eyes and you randomly select 8 men, what’s the probability that none of them has blue eyes?
Itranscript One male and one female dam rat pup were randomly selected from 8 litters to perform the swim maze. Each pup was placed in the water at one end of the maze and allowed to swim until it escaped at the opposite end. If the pup failed to escape after a certain period of time, it was placed at the beginning of the maze and given another chance. The experiment was repeated until each pup accomplished three successful escapes. The table to the right reports the number of swims required by each pup. Is there sufficient evidence of a difference between the mean number of swims required by male and female pups? Use a=0.01. Comment on the assumptions required for the test to be valid.

SWIMMER’S FLEXIBILITY STUDY Swimming requires complete body movement as defined in sports science. A swimmer’s flexibility helps in his/her movement in water, thus making him/her a faster swimmer. In a study conducted to determine if there is an improvement in swim speed after doing flexibility exercise, 15 swimmers of the same characteristics were randomly selected. They were asked to do a 25-m freestyle and their swim speed (in seconds) were recorded. After this, a flexibility exercise was done. All the swimmers were then asked to do another 25-m freestyle and their swim speed (in seconds) were also recorded. The data collected are given below and can also be found in the worksheet “swim_speed”of excel file “exer3_data.xlsx”. R outputs can be found in the file “exer3_outputs.pdf”.(Use before – after in your computations Swimmer 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Before 16.87 19.42 20.04 22.82 24.24 17.76 23.91 17.17 After 15.82 18.47 20.43 21.76 23.88 18.12 20.96 16.03 Swimmer 9 10 11 12…
A movie director who combines dark humor and neo-western in his films is curious about gender preferences about his movies. His team randomly sampled 12 male and 14 female movie fans and had them score one of his movies after watching it. Here are the scores: Males: 85 59 90 81 90 88 87 87 64 82 87 63Females: 79 79 79 83 76 77 74 85 69 75 82 77 72 63 In order to investigate whether there is enough evidence to conclude that males actually like his movies more, the test statistic is Blank 1. Fill in the blank, read surrounding text.and the p-value is Blank 2. Fill in the blank, read surrounding text.. (Hint:Assume the populations are Normal and variances are equal, Use the mean of males as Mu1)
