Rhianna hears that watching ASMR videos on YouTube can help with insomnia. She conducts a sleep study on 60 people who have difficulty sleeping by asking a simple random sample of 30 participants to watch at least 20 minutes of ASMR videos prior to sleeping and the remaining 30 participants to attempt to sleep without watching any videos. During the study, the subjects are connected to an EEG machine, which is used to measure brain activity. Rhianna analyzes the EEG results and concludes that those who watched the ASMR videos experienced a better quality of sleep than those who did not.

- In a science fair project, Emily conducted an experiment in which she tested professional touch therapists to see if they could sense her energy field. She flipped a coin to select either her right hand or her left hand, and then she asked the therapists to identify the selected hand by placing their hand just under Emily's hand without seeing it and without touching it. Among 340 trials, the touch therapists were correct 162 times. Complete parts (a) through (d). a. Given that Emily used a coin toss to select either her right hand or her left hand, what proportion of correct responses would be expected if the touch therapists made random guesses? 0.5 (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) b. Using Emily's sample results, what is the best point estimate of the therapists' success rate? (Round to three decimal places as needed.)A recent study investigated whether cell phone users experience separation anxiety when they cannot access their phones. Because blood pressure increases with anxiety, the researchers used systolic blood pressure as an operational measure of anxiety. The experiment involved a random sample of cell phone users that were divided into two groups at random. One group of participants completed a survey while their phones were locked in a cabinet in a separate room and the other group of participants completed the same survey while their phones were nearby. (The survey questions were unrelated to cell phone use.) At the end of the survey, theresearchers measured each participant's systolic blood pressure. The same experiment was conducted in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and St. Zotique. The blood pressure data needed is below. Use these data to answer the following question: compute r2 for the data collected in st. zotique. Please answer to 5 decimal places.

Down syndrome babies are mentally and physically challenged. Some mothers choose to abort the fetus when they are certain that their baby will be born with the syndrome. The most common screening is maternal serum screening, a blood test that looks for markers in the blood to indicate whether the birth defect may occur. The false-positive and false-negative rates vary according to the age of the mother. Mother’s Age False-Positive Rate False-Negative RateUnder 30 0.040 0.37630-34 0.082 0.29035-37 0.178 0.269Over 38 0.343 0.029 The probability that a baby has Down syndrome is primarily a function of the mother’s age.

When the data from the app was reviewed, the following observation was made: Of the people who work out strenuously on a particular day, 40% will work out strenuously the next day and 60% will work out moderately. Of the people who work out moderately on a particular day, 50% will work out strenuously the next day and 50% will work out lightly. Of the people working out lightly on a particular day, 30% will work out strenuously on the next day, 20% will work out moderately, and 50% lightly. (a) Set up the 3 x 3 transition matrix with rows and columns labelled S , M, and L. (b) Suppose that on a particular Monday, 80% work out strenuously, 10% moderately, and 10% lightly. What will the distribution be on Wednesday? (You can use a calculator for the matrix multiplication.)
