Next questionWhen a man observed a sobriety checkpoint conducted by a police department, he saw 662 drivers were screened and 9 were arrested for drivingwhile intoxicated. Based on those results, we can estimate that P(W) = 0.01360, where W denotes the event of screening a driver and gettingsomeone who is intoxicated. What does P (W) denote, and what is its value?What does P (W) represent?

GRC students who took a Proficiency Exam had a μ=84 and σ=6 Find X such that 5% of the mean Exam score in 16 tests results falls above X? Give your answer precise to one decimal place.
A researcher believes at 49% of people who grew up as the only child have an IQ score over 100. However, unknown to the researcher this figure is actually 50% which is the same as the general population. To attempt to find evidence for the claim, the researcher is going to take a random sample of 400 people who grew up as an only child. Let X be the proportion of people in the sample with an IQ score above 100. (a) find the mean of C (b) find the standard deviation of X (c) compute the approximation for P(x >0.49) , which is the probability that there will be 49% or more with the IQ scores over 100 in the sample. Round your answer to four decimal places. * greater than sign, is supposed to be greater than or equal to sign*

The correlation between X and Y is r = 0.35. Based on thisr value, is this a good equation to use for predictions of other events within the range of the data? O Yes, the correlation is strong. cannot be determined O No, the correlation is too weak to give accurate estimates. O No, the correlation is too strong. O Yes, there is a positive correlation.
The CDC (Center for Disease Control) did a study to see if there is an association between lung cancer and exposure to asbestos (this data set has been made up. However, my understanding is that the association has already been proven). The doctors at the CDC took a SRS of 20 people with lung cancer and a SRS of 30 people without lung cancer. Suppose the incidence of lung cancer is 1 out of every 1000 people (I made this number up).Let C = a randomly selected person has lung cancerLet E = a randomly selected person has been exposed to asbestosUse 3 decimal places for the following questions.P(C | E) =
A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________
A random sample of n1 = 20 winter days in Denver gave a sample mean pollution index x1 = 43. Previous studies show that ?1 = 11. For Englewood (a suburb of Denver), a random sample of n2 = 18 winter days gave a sample mean pollution index of x2 = 36. Previous studies show that ?2 = 15. 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. a) What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Test the difference ?1 − ?2. Round your answer to two decimal places.)b) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Cardiovascular Disease Suppose the incidence rate of myocardial infarction (MI) was 5 per 1000 among 45- to 54-year-old men in 2000. To look at changes in incidence over time, 5000 men in this age group were followed for 1 year starting in 2010. Fifteen new cases of MI were found. 7.14 Of the 15 new MI cases in the preceding study, 5 died within 24 hours. Test whether the 24-hour case- fatality rate changed from 2000 to 2010.
Withdrawal symptoms may occur when a person using a painkiller suddenly stops using it. For a special type of painkiller, withdrawal symptoms occur in 4% of the cases. Consider a random sample of 2400 people who have stopped using the painkiller. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of p, where p is the proportion of people in the sample who experience withdrawal symptoms. (b) Find the standard deviation of (c) Compute an approximation for P(p <0.05), which is the probability that fewer than 5% of those sampled experience withdrawal symptoms. Round your answer to four decimal places.
Thirteen different video games showing drug use were observed. The duration times of drug use (in seconds) were recorded. When using this sample for a t test of the claim that the population mean is greater than 78 sec, what does df denote, and what is its value?
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…
1. You are interested in the effect of a new learning technique. The performance score on the test before applying the new learning technique is 50 (u=50), the standard deviation is 4 (o=4). You obtained a sample of 64 subjects and applied the new learning technique. After that, their performance score on the test increased by 2 (x=52).
