Suppose the entire cola industry produces only two colas. Given that a person last purchased cola 1, there a 70% chance that her next purchase will be cola 1. Given that a person last purchased cola 2, there is an 75% chance that her next purchase will be cola 2. Suppose that each customer makes one purchase of cola during any week (52 weeks=1 year). Suppose there are 150 million customers. One selling unit of cola costs the company $0.5 to produce and is sold for $2. For $200 million per year, Britney Spears (by an advertising song) guarantees to decrease from 30% to 15% the fraction of cola 1 customers who switch to cola 2 after a purchase. Should the company that makes cola 1 hire Britney Spears?
Problem #3: A high-risk group of 808 male volunteers was included in a major clinical trial for testing a new vaccine for type B hepatitis. The vaccine was given to 328 persons randomly selected from the group, and the others were injected with a neutral substance (placebo). 15 of the vaccinated people and 33 of the nonvaccinated ones later got the disease. Problem #3(a): Problem #3(b): Problem #3 (c): Problem #3 (d): Problem #3(e): We wish to test the hypothesis that the probability of getting type B hepatitis is different (higher or lower) for people who were vaccinated compared with people who were not, using the 5% significance level. (a) If we use the contingency table method to test this hypothesis, find the 4 values in the expected table. (b) Find the value of the test statistic (using the contingency table method). (c) Find the critical value (using the contingency table method). (d) Using the z-test for proportions, find the value of the test statistic (and verify x², when…

Suppose there are four cities at locations x1 = 2; x2 = 5; x3 = 9, and x4 = 11, requiring respectively Ni = 6; 2; 3; 7 visits, respectively. Suppose that the cost-per-mile to ship goods is $4 between x1 and x2, but $8 between x2 and x3, and $10 between x3 and x4. What is the cost of keeping the PDC at x = 6? What about at x = 10?
1. "The Diet Problem": Suppose that a thrifty patient of limited means was advised by his doctor to increase the consumption of Vegetable1 and Vegetable2 in his diet. In each meal he must get no less than 200 cal from this combination and no more than 14 units of fat. When he consulted his diet book, he found the following information: there are 150 cal in a kg of Vegetable1 and 200 cal in a kg of Vegetable2. However there are 14 units of fat in a kg of Vegetable1 and 4 units of fat in a kg of Vegetable2. Vegetablel costs at least Rs.30 per kg and Vegetable2 costs at least Rs.50 per kg. He can afford to pay only the least price. How do he meet the requirement set by the doctor?
Problem#1: Exercise and diet are being studied as possible substitutes for medication to lower blood pressure. Three groups of subjects will be used to study the effect of exercise. Group 1 is sedentary, while group 2 walks and group 3 swims for 1 hour a day. Half of each of the three exercise groups will be on a salt-free diet. An additional group of subjects will not exercise or restrict their salt, but will take the standard medication. Use Z for sedentary, W for walker, S for swimmer, Y for salt, N for no salt, M for medication, and F for medication free (a) Show all of the elements of the sample space S. (b) Given that A is the set of nonmedicated subjects and B is the set of walkers, list the elements of A ∪ B. (c) List the elements of A ∩ B.
TRUE (1) OR FALSE (2) According to Statistics South Africa (2011), the total human population of KaNgove, a village in Giyani (South Africa), is 6376, while the total number of households is 1545. In this study, the population unit is the households since the study seeks to study indigenous systems of households. Based on the facts above: The population size of this study will be (N=6376)? TRUE / FALSE The population size of this study will be (N=1545)? TRUE/FALSE The sample size will be n=155? TRUE/FALSE
A system consists of two identical pumps, #1 and #2. If one pump fails, the system will still operate. However, because of the added strain, the remaining pump is now more likely to fail than was originally the case. That is, r 5 P(#2 fails | #1 fails). P(#2 fails) = q. If at least one pump fails by the end of the pump design life in 7% of all systems and both pumps fail during that period in only 1%, what is the probability that pump #1 will fail during the pump design life?
