(b) Tiffany obtained data about the gross domestic product (GDP) and the birth rate for 170 countries. She classified each GDP and each birth rate as either "low", "medium" or "high". There were 74 countries that had a medium GDP and 43 countries that had a high GDP. Among the countries that have 58 low birth rate, there were 3 countries that have a low GDP and 20 countries that have a medium GDP, whereas among the countries that have high birth rate, there were 45 countries that have a low GDP, 12 countries have a medium GDP and no country has a high GDP. i. Construct a contingency table to represent the information above. One of these countries is chosen at random. Find the probability that The country chosen has a low GDP or a medium birth rate. ii. iii. The country chosen has a low birth rate, given that it does not have a medium GDP. iv. States with a reason whether or not the events 'the country chosen has a medium GDP' and 'the country chosen has a medium birth rate' are…
Grade points are assigned such that an A receives 4 points, a B receives 3 points, a C receives 2 points, a D receives 1 point, and a F receives 0 points. Grades are weighted according to credit hours (units). If a student receives an A in a four-unit class, a D in a two-unit class, a B in a three-unit class and a C in a three-unit class, what is the student's grade point average? O A. 2.75 O B. 1.75 O C. 3.00 O D. 2.50 Click to select your answer. DELL XXX EVD disc RW DELL

Suppose you were to collect data for the following pair of variables, gasoline: number of miles driven since your last fill up, gallons of gas remaining in your tank. You want to make a scatterplot. Which variable would you use as the explanatory variable? number of miles driven since your last fill up gallons of gas remaining in your tank Which variable would you use as the response variable? O number of miles driven since your last fill up gallons of gas remaining in your tank Would you expect to see a positive or negative association? positive negative O neither
The researcher is concerned that older persons may not be knowledgeable of the COFLU-20. As such, he is interested in investigating the association between the age of the respondents and their knowledge level. Table 2 below shows the knowledge level of respondents, by age group. Table 2 Age Group Knowledge Level Total Poor Satisfactory Good 18 - 25 33 16 13 62 26 - 34 30 18 12 60 35 - 44 45 - 54 29 14 12 55 36 16 18 70 55 - 75 17 14 22 53 Total 145 78 77 300 Conduct a test, at the 5% level of significance, to determine whether the data provided sufficient evidence to conclude that an association exists between age group and knowledge level. () State the hypotheses to be tested: H: Calculate: (ii) state the degrees of freedom for this test (ii) the p-value for this test, given that the chi-square test statistic, x, i 11.029. (iv) state the conclusion for the test. Give reason for your answer.

Imagine that you were hired as a consultant by a local business owner tohelp her determine how many paid days off she should provide to her employees. In general, she wants to establish some sort of standard for her employees and for herself. Based on data provided by the government, you conclude that on average, workers in the United States take 14 paid days off per year. The data for the eight employees who work at the company you are consulting for are: 12, 9, 7, 12, 13, 14, 14, and 12 days. Thequestion you are trying to answer is, are the number of days off taken by the eight employees statistically different from the data provided by the US government? (I have stated the null and alternative hypotheses, and found that this is a two-tailed test. With alpha=0.05, I have found the t-critical value to be +/- 2.365, with DF=7)I need help with: A. Compute the appropriate test statistic. Use the computational formula tocompute the sample standard deviation. Show all formulas that you…

6) The following results are from data that were collected from the appraisal of houses based on a number of the houses’ characteristics: the dependent variable is APPRAISAL VALUE, the variable Land measures the amount of land the lot is, HOUSE SIZE measures the size of the house, AGE measures how old the house is, ROOMS measures the number of bedrooms the house has, BATHS measures the number of bathrooms a house has, and GARAGE measures weather it is a 1 or 2 car garage. *see below* Since the 3 variables ROOMS, BATHS, and GARAGE are each not significant at the 10% level of significance individually, in order to test to see if as a group they are significant (versus the alternative that they are not significant and that house values are really determined primarily by LAND, HOUSE SIZE, and AGE) the 3 variables are excluded and another regression is run. The results are as follows: *see below* a) At the 10% level of significance, test whether as a group ROOMS, BATHS, and GARAGE are…
