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) 36% b)37% c) 24% d)23% e)5.3%

StarHortons Cup, the coffee company, wants to determine how long caffeine lasts throughout the day when individuals have a cup of one of their 3 types of coffee at 9am. They will then measure the levels of caffeine in these individuals’ systems at 10am, 12am, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm and 8pm. They want to have at least 20 observations per group. How many separate/distinct groups of participants are needed if they want to conduct this experiment using a mixed-measures ANOVA? 18 6 20 3
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.

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?

Human blood is classified by the presence or absence of three main antigens (A, B, and Rh). When a blood specimen is typed, the presence of the A and/or B antigen is indicated by listing the letter A and/or the letter B. If neither the A nor the B antigen is present, the letter O is used.The following table gives the percent of a certain country's population having each of the eight possible blood types in the sample space. Note that the presence or absence of the Rh antigen is indicated by the symbols + or −, respectively. Blood Types A+ A− B+ B− AB+ AB− O+ O− Percent 35.7 6.3 9.5 2.5 3.4 0.8 37.2 4.6 (a) What is the probability that a person selected randomly from the population has a blood type that is type O or Rh+?(b) What is the probability that a person selected randomly from the population has a blood type that contains the A antigen?(c) What is the probability that a person selected randomly from the population has a blood type that is type AB or Rh−?
A researcher thinks some social media sites are more prone to narcissistic behavior (excessive posting) than others. To examine the relationship between narcissism and social media, she recruits users of three different social media sites (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram), follows them for 24 hours and records the number of posts made by each user. The number of posts is given in the table below. Twitter Facebook Instagram 10 7 14 10 8. 10 10 10 11 9. www. 12 wwww. 11 13 12 8. 7 8. 11 8 10 12 11 11 a.

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 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?
