Suppose that 6% of a particular population have a particularly nasty disease. There is a test for the disease that correctly identifies those with the disease 98% of the time. However, the same test gives a false positive 1% of the time. Suppose that a random person from this population is given the test as part of a wellness exam. Give answers in decimal form rounded to 4 decimal places as needed. A. Suppose that a random person comes in for a wellness exam and tests positive for the disease. What is the probability that she actually has the disease? B. Suppose that a person comes in for a wellness exam and tests negative. What is the probability that this person does not have the disease? C. What proportion of the total population will test positive? D. What proportion of the total population will not have the disease and will test negative?
A sample of 3 balls is to be selected at random from an urn containing 20 balls numbered 1 to 20. Six balls are green, 4 balls are white, and 10 balls are black. How many different samples can be selected?
A research team is working on a project to study the time (in seconds) for high school male runners to finisha 400-meter race. Jimmy, a junior researcher in the team, has randomly selected a sample of 25 male runnersfrom a high school and the time (in seconds) for each of them to complete a 400-meter race was recorded.The sample mean running time was 53 seconds. It is assumed that the running time in a 400-meter racefollows a normal distribution with a population standard deviation of 5.5 seconds.(a) Give a point estimate of the population mean running time for a 400-meter race.(b) Calculate the sampling error at 95% confidence level.(c) Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean running time for a 400-meter race. (d) If instead of 25, 80 male runners are selected for the study, what is the sampling error at 95% confidencelevel? When the 95% confidence interval is constructed based on a sample with 80 male runners, wouldyou expect the interval will be (I)…

A farmer sows 100 seeds of a new type of corn and wants to quickly determine the yield, or total number of ears of corn, for the crop when it has matured. He decides to take a simple random sample of 10 corn plants. He labels the 100 plants 00-99. Refer to the given line from a random number table. Which numbers represent the sample of 10 corm plants? 58160 0969538399 40400 32662 46254 O 58, 16, 00, 96, 95, 38, 39, 94, 04, 00 O 58, 16, 00, 96, 95, 38, 39, 94, 04, 32 O 58, 16, 96, 95, 38, 39, 94, 04, 32, 66 58, 16, 09, 69, 38, 39, 40, 32, 66, 46

A study of n = 2252 adults age 18 or older found that 72% of the cell phone users send and receive text messages.15 A study of n = 800 teens age 12 to 17 found that 87% of the teen cell phone users send and receive text messages. What is the best estimate for the difference in the proportion of cell phone users who use text messages, between adults (defined as 18 and over) and teens? Give notation (as a difference with a minus sign) for the quantity we are trying to estimate, notation for the quantity that gives the best estimate, and the value of the best estimate. Be sure to clearly define any parameters in the context of this situation.
