Incubation period for Covid-19At the end of the pdf of this quiz (posted in the topic module) is a Wall Street Journalarticle about the incubation period of the coronavirus (how long it takes symptoms toappear after the person is exposed and contracts the virus). The article gives the medianand a couple of probabilities. We'll make the additional assumption that the incubationperiod is approximately normally distributed in the population of people who contract thevirus.This is the first of 2 questions in this set.Define X; to be the incubation period of Covid-19 in patient i. Assume that X; has anapproximately normal distribution with mean 5.1. (The article says the median is 5.1, andsince we're assuming a normal distribution, which is symmetric, the mean also is 5.1).The article says that 0.975 of people develop symptoms within 11.5 days of exposure. Inother words, P(X, < 11.5) = 0.975. Calculate the standard deviation of the distribution ofX. Four decimals3.2

A company claims that the number of defective items manufactured during each run of making 100 of their products is independent of the number from other runs and that the proportion of defectives is not more than 3%. Assuming that the defective rate for each run is 3% Which of the following can be used to determine whether x = 8 is unusually a high number of defective items on the next run of 100 of their products?
In the general population, the mean IQ score is 100, with standarddeviation σ = 15. A random sample of 36 newly tested incoming students atCommunity College revealed a sample mean IQ of 104.5. Does this sample givegood evidence (at a 5% level of significance) that the mean IQ of allincoming students is different from 100?
T7.13. According to government data, 22% of American children under the age of six live in households with incomes less than the official poverty level. A study of learning in early childhood chooses an SRS of 300 children. Find the probability that more than 20% of the sample are from poverty households. Be sure to check that you can use the Normal approximation.
A company's single-serving cereal boxes advertise 1.63 ounces of cereal. In fact, the amount of cereal X in a randomly selected box can be modeled by a Normal distribution with a mean of 1.70 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.03 ounces. Let Y = the excess amount of cereal beyond what's advertised in a randomly selected box, measured in grams (1 ounce = 28.35 grams). A. Find the mean of Y B. Calculate and interpret the standard deviation of Y C. Find the probability of getting at least 1 gram more cereal than advertised
In the US, 42.3% of all people have type O blood, 40.8% have type A blood, 12% have type B blood and 4.9% have type AB blood. A researcher wants to see if the distribution of blood type is different for millionaires. The table below shows the results of a random sample of 897 millionaires. What can be concluded at the significant level of a = 0.1. For this study, we should use [x²GOF-Test Your friend Henry helped you with the null and alternative hypotheses... Ho: The distributions of blood types are the same between the general population and the millionaires. H₁: The distributions of blood types are NOT the same between the general population and the millionaires. You drew 897 samples, and the observed frequencies are recorded below.

A study is conducted to determine factors in solving missing persons cases. The outcome is Y; which is equal to 1 if the i-th missing person case is unsolved and 0 if it is solved. Let covariate X1; be an indicator equal to 1 if the i-th case is female and 0 for male. Let X2i be a categorical covariate of age group for the i-th case. Categories are less than 14 years old (base level/group), between 14 and 19 years old, and older than 19 years. Set u = P(Y = 1) and the following model is fit: logit(u) = Bo + BịI(Female) + B2I(14 to 19 yrs old) + B3I(> 19 yrs old) The output from the model is below: Estimate S.E. p-value Bo -4.565 0.128 0.380 0.087 B2 Вз -0.198 0.042 0.163 1.128 0.133 a. Using the logistic regression output, calculate the estimated odds ratio of a case being unsolved (again Y=1 is unsolved and Y=0 is solved) comparing females to males (female is the numerator odds) of the same age. Interpret this odds ratio in context of the problem. iii b. Create a 95% confidence…

A random sample of n = 19 winter days in Denver gave a sample mean pollution index x1 = 43. Previous studies show that o1 = 10. For Englewood (a suburb of Denver), a random sample of n2 = 18 winter days gave a sample mean pollution index of x2 = 34. Previous studies show that o2 = 13. Assume the pollution index is normally distributed in both Englewood and Denver. Do these data indicate that the mean population pollution index of Englewood is different (either way) from that of Denver in the winter? Use a 1% level of significance.
