Information theory is concerned with the transmission of data, usually encoded as a stream of 0s and 1s, over communication channels. Because channels are “noisy,” there is a chance that some 0s sent through the channel are mistakenly received at the other end as 1s, and vice versa. The majority of digits sent, however, are not altered by the channel. Draw a tree diagram that depicts the type of bit sent (either 0 or 1) and the type of bit received at the end of the channel.

A researcher is interested in the affects that a person’s avatar (i.e. visual representation of oneself) has on the number of profile views on Facebook.com. The average number of individual personal profile views is known to be 230 views per day (excluding bands, artists, etc.). The researcher creates 36 fictitious profiles that contain roughly the same information but the picture (avatar) is an animated .gif of a smiling face (36 faces randomly selected from a compilation of faces judged to be of average attractiveness). The results showed that of the 36 profiles the average number of views was 250 with a standard deviation of 60. Test the hypothesis that the average number of views for a smiling face gif is significantly different than the usual number of personal profile views.
A popular summer event is Skee-Ball. For $2, a customer purchases three balls and attempts to roll each ball into a central target. The customer wins their $2 back and wins an additional $1 if they hit the target once, an additional $3 if they hit the target twice and an additional $5 if they hit the target three times. If the customer does not hit the target at all, they lose their initial $2. Access the data set labeled ”Skee-Ball” which reports the outcomes of 2,500 games for a single day’s operation of a Skee-Ball booth. (a) Define a random variable C (Customer Score) equal to the number of times a customer hits the target in each set of three rolls. How many possible outcomes of C are there? Report your answer as an integer. (b) Report the net profit ($) that the Skee-Ball booth achieved for the day. Report your answer as an integer. Hint: Estimate the PDF of C based on the relative frequencies: P(C = c) = Frequency of C = c / 2,500 (c) Report P(C = 0). Round your answer to three…
Researchers investigated two kinds of laugh tracks – one with posed laughter and one with spontaneous laughter. Recall that to create the posed laughter laugh track, the researchers asked people to laugh and recorded the results. The researchers also tested the same 40 jokes with a spontaneous laughing laugh track, which they created by having people watch funny videos and recording their laughter. The data can be found in the file LaughTypes in pictures. Put these data into the Matched Pairs applet to investigate whether the type of laughter makes a difference in the ratings of the jokes and also do parts (a) (b) and (c):
You will use the following data set to answer all parts of the project. This data set is the number of students enrolled at CCA from 2015 to 2019 by semester Fall 2015 6933 Summer 2015 2495 Spring 2015 7518 Fall 2016 7386 Summer 2016 2301 Spring 2016 8056 Fall 2016 8025 Summer 2016 2235 Spring 2016 8725 Fall 2018 7982 Summer 2018 2140 Spring 2018 8436 Fall 2019 5859 Summer 2019 2089 Spring 2019 9048 1) Find the mean, median, and mode for CCA Student enrollment data set. Then using the formulas for samples, find the variance and standard deviation. 2) Organize the data set on student enrollment by creating a frequency distribution and include the relative frequency. Group the data into seven logical equal intervals starting with 2,000 ≤ x < 10,000 and so on. x f relative f…
Every day a school bus driver passes the same traffic light twice, once before school and once after. Each time he passes the light, he records if it is red, green, or yellow. Here is a summary of the data he got after 200 days. Traffic light before school red red red green green green yellow yellow yellow Traffic light after school red green yellow red green yellow red green yellow Number of days 25 38 12 34 36 11 16 13 15 Suppose the driver will continue recording the colors for 150 more days. In how many of these 150 days will the light be yellow exactly once? Use the data to make a prediction.
Doctors at a technology research facility randomly assigned people to use computer keyboards in two rooms. In one room a group of people typed a manuscript using standard keyboards, while in the other room a second group of people typed the same manuscript using ergonomic keyboards to see if those people could type more words per minute. The table shows the resulting data. Standard Ergonomic Words per Words per minute minute 12 43 38 35 21 35 28 69 18 58 45 52 40 36 42 37 52 38 19 47 24 46 63 58

Researchers conducted a study to find out if there is a difference in the use of online-learning by different age groups. Randomly selected participants were divided into two age groups. In the 16 to 29-year-old group, 7% of the 628 surveyed use online-learning, while 11% of the 2,309 participants 30 years old and older use online learning. (Set 1 for 16-29 year old group; Set 2 for 30 years old and older). Find the p-value of 2-prop-z-test.

Suppose we have a dataset containing 50 rows, one row for each state. The population of each state, measuredin millions of people, is a variable in that data set. Below is a histogram for the population data. I have attached the bar graph- I am havinng trouble discerning which axis is the state and which axid is the population count? theres only 14 on one axis and 44 on the other. Doesn't make sense for a state to have a zero population. Can you tell which is which? a) What proportion of states have a population between 6 and 10 million? what is the mean population? what is the median population?
Set A: n = 5; x = 10Set B: n = 50; x = 10(a) Suppose the number 32 is included as an additional data value in Set A. Compute x for the new data set. To compute x for the new data set, add 32 to x of the original data set and divide by 6. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) b.) Suppose the number 32 is included as an additional data value in Set B. Compute x for the new data set. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
