Consider the hypothetical case that there were only two brands of juice on the market, company A and company B. 52% of the population drinks juice from company A (it is not known whether these people consume only juice A or if they also consume juice B). 51% of the population drinks juice of company B (again, it is not known how many of these people drink only juice B or if they drink both juice). However, it is known that 21% of the population does not drink juice. Based on these data, we can estimate that the percentage of the population that drinks juice from both companies is: (choose only one) a) 56%

Each American family is classified as living in an urban, suburban or rural location. During a given year, 15% of all urban families move to a suburban location, and 5% move to a rural location; also, 6% of all suburban families move to an urban location, and 4% move to a rural location; finally, 4% of all rural families move to an urban location, and 6% move to a suburban location. a.If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in an urban area two years from now? b. If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in a suburban area two years from now? c. If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in a rural area two years from now? d. Find the steady-state probabilities.
The Stanford University Heart Transplant Study (1974) was conducted to determine whether an experimental heart transplant program increased lifespan. Each patient entering the program was designated an official heart transplant candidate, meaning that he was gravely ill and would most likely benefit from a new heart. Some patients got a transplant and some did not. Of the 34 patients in the control group, 4 were alive at the end of the study. Of the 69 patients in the treatment group, 24 were alive. The contingency table below summarizes these results. Treatment Control Total Alive 24 4 28 Dead 45 30 75 Total 69 34 103 45 a) What proportion of patients in the treatment group died? 69 30 b) What proportion of patients in the control group died? 34 c) What are the claims being tested?

A certain bank issues customers with two types of credit card: V or M. A survey of customers at the bank showed that 50% of customers have a credit card of type V, 40% have a card of type M and 35% do not have a credit card at all. What is the percentage of customers who have both V and M credit cards? O a. 25% b.15% O C. 10%% O d. 209%
When looking at the data for graduate school admissions between men and women, it is shown that about 45% of men are admitted but only 38% of women. However, when the data is broken down by school it turns out that, within each school, the women are admitted at higher rates than the men. This could happen because I. The women apply in higher numbers to schools with lower acceptance rates. II. The women apply in higher numbers to schools with higher acceptance rates III. The men apply in higher numbers to schools with lower acceptance rates IV. The men apply in higher numbers to schools with higher acceptance rates
In a study carried out among low-income families in the young towns of Detroit, it was found that 30% spent less than $8 weekly on purchasing charcoal and consumed products from soup kitchens. 35% spent $8 to $15 weekly on the purchase of charcoal. 5% spent more than $15 weekly on the purchase of charcoal and consumed products from the soup kitchen. 15% spent more than $15 each week buying coal. Finally, 55% did not consume the products of the soup kitchens.If you randomly choose a low-income familyto. What is the probability that you spend less than $8 weekly on purchasing coal?b.

In a certain city, with a population of 1,000,000 people, 17 people have been infected with a disease. Five of these people are superspreaders. Superspreaders do not get sick, but will always be infected. Out of the remaining infected people, 50% do not get sick, and do not isolate, but will spread the disease for a week and then will no longer be infected. 35% will self-isolate and get better. The remaining 15% get sick and are admitted to hospital. Within a week, a superspreader will infect 0.1% of the population. A spreader is only infected for a week but will infect 0.01% of the population. Everyone in self-isolation will recover within a week. 50% of people in hospital will die, while the other 50% make a full recovery. a) Following this trend, what happens to the population over time?
Human blood may contain either or both of two antigens, A and B. Blood that contains only the A antigen is called type A, blood that contains only the B antigen is called type B, blood that contains both antigens is called type AB, and blood that contains neither antigen is called type O. At a certain blood bank, 35% of the blood donors have type A blood, 10% have type B, and 5% have type AB. (i) What is the probability that a randomly chosen blood donor is type O? (ii) A recipient with type A blood may safely receive blood from a donor whose blood does not contain the B antigen. What is the probability that a randomly chosen blood donor may donate to a recipient with type A blood? (b) A box contains 10 fuses. Eight of them are rated at 10 amperes (A) and the other two are rated at 15 A. Two fuses are selected at random. (i) What is the probability that the first fuse is rated at 15 A? (ii) What is the probability that the second fuse israted at 15 A, given that the first fuse is rated…
A company claims that its brand of dish detergent, A, is more effective than a competitor’s brand, B. Fifty dirty dishes are randomly selected and randomly divided into two groups. In one group, each dirty dish will be placed in a container of hot water with Brand A detergent and in the other group, each dirty dish will be placed in a container of hot water with Brand B detergent. The dishes will sit for two hours, and then the cleanliness of the dishes will be measured using a scale of 1–10 (1 = least clean to 10 = most clean). The difference in mean cleanliness ratings for the two detergents (A – B) will then be calculated. What is the appropriate inference procedure?
