For the following experiment, let x determine a random variable, and use knowledge of probability to prepare a probability distribution. Two names are drawn from a hat, signifying who should go pick up pizza. FiveFive of the names are on the swim team and sixsix are not. The number of swimmers selected is counted.

Suppose that you are given a decision situation with three possible states of nature: s1, s2, and s3. The prior probabilities are P(s1) = 0.2, P(s2) = 0.5, and P(s3) = 0.3. With sample information I, P(I|s1) = 0.1, P(I|s2) = 0.05, and P(I|s3) = 0.2. Compute the revised (or posterior) probabilities: P(s1|I), P(s2|I), and P(s3|I).

Suppose you're given a data set that classifies each sample unit into one of four categories: A, B, C, the data as A = 1, B=2, C = 3, and D=4. Are the data consisting of the classifications A, B, C, and D or quantitative? Are the data consisting of the classifications A, B, C, and D qualitiative or quantitative? OA. Qualitative, because they are measured on a naturally occuring numerical scale. B. Quantitative, because they are measured on a naturally occuring numerical scale. C. Quantitative, because they can only be classified into categories. D. Qualitative, because they can only be classified into categories. *** After the data are input as 1, 2, 3, or 4, are they qualitative or quantitative? OA. Qualitative, because they cannot be meaningfully added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided. B. Qualitative, because they are measured on a naturally occurring numerical scale. OC. Quantitative, because they are measured on a naturally occurring numerical scale. OD. Quantitative, because…
