Due to pollution 25 percent of the people in a country suffer from a lung related desease and10 percent have another desease. For simplicity we assume that there are no people having boththis lung related desease and another desease. It is known that 50 percent of the people infectedby this lung related desease needs to be hospitalized in a hospital. From historical data it is alsoknown that 6 percent of the population needs to be hospitalized in a hospital due to other deseasesthen this lung related deseaseCompute the probability that a person needs to be hospitalized and the condi-tional probability that a person suffer from this lung related desease given that this person ishospitalized.The authorities do not know how many people in the country are suffering fromthis lung related desease and so the above 25 percent is not based on reality. To get anestimation of this percentage all the people in the country need to do some test to detect thislung related desease. The type I error of this test given by P(test is negative|person has thelung related desease ) = 0.4 and the type II error given by P(test is positive |person hasnot this lung related desease) equals 0.3 Of the population taking the test 40 percent testedpositive. Observe if the test is positive this means that according to the test the person hasthis lung related desease. Give an estimate of the fraction of the population having this lungrelated desease.In total the total population of the country is 100.000. Give an estimate of thenumber of beds necessary in the hospital using the updated estimate derived in part 2.

Over the past 40 years, the percentage of homes in the United States with smoke detectors has risen steadily and has plateaued at about 96% as of 2015.† With this increase in the use of home smoke detectors, what has happened to the death rate from home fires? Suppose the following contains 17 years of data on the estimated percentage of homes with smoke detectors and the estimated home fire deaths per million of population. Percentage ofHomes withSmoke Detectors Home Fire Deathsper Millionof Population 0.52 22.8 0.69 20.7 0.76 17.2 0.78 20.4 0.79 19.3 0.84 18.8 0.83 17.5 0.87 16.1 0.88 13.5 0.90 14.3 0.92 14.2 0.94 12.9 0.95 10.8 0.96 10.8 0.97 10.1 0.96 8.3 0.96 8.0 (a) Do you expect a positive or negative relationship between smoke detector use and deaths from home fires? Why or why not? We would expect there would be a ---Select--- negative positive relationship between smoke detector use and deaths from home fires. As more households have…
In a hypothetical city, there is a population of 200,000 people. During the year 2000, there were 1,000 deaths from all causes. All new cases of disease “X” have been accounted for and they total 600 (400 males and 200 females). During the year 2000 there were 120 deaths from disease “X”, 100 of them in males. Assume the number of existing cases of disease “X” at the end of 1999 is 1200. What is the prevalence rate of disease “X” per 100,000 population at the end of the year 2000?
A series of surveys in GARISSA, carried out from 1990 to 1998, asked random samples of men and women aged 75 to estimate whether or not they would survive to the age of 85. Ten years after each survey the actual numbers surviving in each cohort were determined. All the sample sizes were large. The table summarizes the data.

Many regions in North and South Carolina and Georgia have experienced rapid population growth over the last 10 years. It is expected that the growth will continue over the next 10 years. This has motivated many of the large grocery store chains to build new stores in the region. The Kelley’s Super Grocery Stores Inc. chain is no exception. The director of planning for Kelley’s Super Grocery Stores wants to study adding more stores in this region. He believes there are two main factors that indicate the amount families spend on groceries. The first is their income and the other is the number of people in the family. The director gathered the following sample information. Family Food Income Size 1 $ 4.71 $ 73.98 2 2 4.08 54.90 2 3 5.76 62.70 4 4 3.48 52.02 1 5 4.20 65.70 2 6 4.80 53.64 4 7 4.32 79.74 3 8 5.04 68.58 4 9 6.12 165.60 5 10 3.24 64.80 1 11 4.80…

Each year, more than 2 million people in the United States become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. In particular, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention have launched studies of drug-resistant gonorrhea.† Suppose that, of 205 cases tested in a certain state, 13 were found to be drug-resistant. Suppose also that, of 375 cases tested in another state, 7 were found to be drug-resistant. Do these data suggest a statistically significant difference between the proportions of drug-resistant cases in the two states? Use a 0.02 level of significance. (Let p1 = the population proportion of drug-resistant cases in the first state, and let p2 = the population proportion of drug resistant cases in the second state.) State the null and alternative hypotheses. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.) A. H0: Ha: B. a) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) b) What is the p-value?

A researcher wonders if there an association between the incidence of colds and the amount of vitamin C taken. He recruits 98 volunteers and randomly assigns 29 of them to take 500 mg of vitamin C, 17 of them to take 1000 mg of vitamin C and the rest to take no vitamin C. At the end of the study, it was determined that 28 of the volunteers did not have any colds where 12 of them were in the 500 mg group and 8 of them were in the 1000 mg group. Test the appropriate hypothesis at α=.01 Complete the table of expected counts under the null hypothesis. At least one cold No colds No vitamin C 14.857 500 mg vitamin C 20.714 1000 mg vitamin C 12.143 4.857

The permanent residence of adults aged 18-25 in the U.S. was examined in a survey from the year 2000. The survey revealed that 27% of these adults lived alone, 32% lived with a roommate(s), and 41% lived with their parents/guardians. In 2008, during an economic recession in the country, another such survey of 1600 people revealed that 398 lived alone, 488 lived with a roommate(s), and 714 lived with their parents. Is there a significant difference in where young adults lived in 2000 versus 2008 and state the p-value? Test with a Goodness of Fit test at α=0.05.

Burning fuels in power plants and motor vehicles emits carbon dioxide (CO2), which contributes to global warming. The CO2 emissions (metric tons per capita) for countries varies from 0.02 in Burundi to 44.02 in Qatar. Although the data set includes 214 countries, the CO2 emissions of 15 countries are not available on the World Bank database. The data set is too large to display but the data for the first five countries is given. Use the full data set with data on the 214 countries to answer the questions.

Researchers wanted to conduct a study on the GPA of third year working engineering students in their University. They think that some students with work learned how to manage their time wisely and step up to leadership challenges, while a certain portion of them have problems balancing work and school, and thus, experience stress more than non-working students. The study wants to identify if there is significant difference on the GPA of third year working students with leadership roles and working students without. Identify the population from which the study should be sampled. a. All working students b. Third year working engineering students c. All engineering students in the University d. Third year Engineering Students with part-time job who have adequate time-management and leadership skills.
Helena gathers data about the music preferences of users of a social media application. She gathers information on music events (MEs). In her study, a music event is defined as a posting that has a hashtag or is linked to other video- sharing websites. 1. From her data, Helena claims that about 15% of MEs on the application are hip hop/rap. Juan wants more proof of her claim. • Juan uses technology to determine the genres of music of 100 MEs he chooses at random. He determines that 9 were hip hop/rap. • Juan points out the 9% rate to Helena. Part A Assume Helena is correct and 15% of MEs on the app are hip hop/rap. Use random numbers and a simulated sampling distribution to simulate the outcome of several trials, in which each trial samples 100 MEs from the app and counts the number of hip hop/rap MEs. Make a histogram for your data. Is the model consistent with what you would expect? Explain.
