Suppose 15% of the apples picked one afternoon are rotten. The following simulations demonstrate how apples can be randomly chosen and then recorded as rotten or not rotten. Which simulation best models the scenario? O Place 15 equally sized pieces of paper in a hat. Of the 15, 3 read "rotten," and the rest read "not rotten". O Place 20 equally sized pieces of paper in a hat. Of the 20, 3 read "rotten," and the rest read "not rotten". O Place 30 equally sized pieces of paper in a hat. Of the 30, 3 read "rotten," and the rest read "not rotten". O Place 12 equally sized pieces of paper in a hat. Of the 12, 3 read "rotten," and the rest read "not rotten".

Suppose you try to conduct a presidential approval poll of 10,000 likely U.S. voters. You know that 44% of the voters are registered with the Independent party, 28% are registered with the Reform party and 23% are registered with the Green party. If you are going to construct a representative sample of this population, approximately how many of the likely voters in the sample should be Green party?
A chef is trying out a new recipe he has been working on and wants to see if it will sell better than his old one. To find out, he performs an experiment where he randomly assigns 20 people to try his new recipe and 20 people to try his old one. He asks each group how much they would be willing to pay for their food, and he finds that the group with the old recipe would pay an average of $20.00 and the second would pay an average of $26.00. He then performs an independent samples t-test between these groups. a. Suppose the sample variance for the price of the chef’s old recipe is $2.00, and the sample variance for the new recipe is $3.00. Perform a one-tailed t-test at a significance level of α = 0.01 and explain what the result means (how does the new recipe compare to the old one?). b. To evaluate the magnitude of effect size, compute the estimated Cohen’s d. Briefly describe what it means, and comment on the strength of the effect: is it weak, moderate or strong?
Joe and Maggie take turns mowing the lawn each week. Maggie suggests they try a new system for determining who should mow the lawn. Each week, they will roll two dice and determine the sum of the values. Since the highest possible sum is 12, Maggie will mow the lawn if the sum is 6 or less, and Joe will mow the lawn if the sum is greater than 6. Before agreeing to Maggie's suggestion, Joe wants to check if this plan would be fair. He decides to roll a pair of dice and determine the sum of the values 100 times. The graph shows the results of the 100 trials. Based on his simulation, should Joe agree to Maggie’s plan? (yes/no), because a sum greater than 6 is likely to occur (more than, less then, equal to)(30%, 50%, 75%) of the time

If it was heads shc uscd namc-brand batteries and if it was tails she used the generic brand. She left the flashlights on and recorded how long it took for the batterics to wear out. The results showed that the flashlights that had the name-brand batteries, on average, lasted significantly longer than the flashlights that used the generic brand. What type of design is this study? a. This study is an example of a simple random sample. b. This study is an example of a matched pairs experiment. This study is an example of a completely randomized experiment. This study is an example of an obscrvational study. c. d.
Psychologists at Disney World measured factors that affect the scariness of the soundtrack for their Haunted House ride. In particular, they were interested in the loudness of the screams (soft versus loud) and the length of the screams (short versus long). They used a 2 × 2 factorial design to test how these factors combined. They collected data from 10 different riders in each of the four conditions. Each rider rated the scariness of the ride on a nine-point scale. short screams long screams soft screams T=38, n = 10, SS = 13.6 T=64, n = 10, SS = 22.4 loud screams T=52, n=10, SS = 29.6 T=50, n=10, SS = 16.0 For these data: G = 204, N = 40, X2 = 1156. 1. Sketch a dataplot of the mean rating in each condition. 2. Calculate SS total, the total sum of squares 3. Calculate SSwithin, the within-treatments sum of squares. 4. Calculate SSbetween, the between-treatments sum of squares. 5. Calculate SSA the sum of squares for Factor A (length of scream). 6. Calculate SSB, the sum of squares…
Jim and John run a barber shop. Every night, both of them predict how many guests willcome on the next day. Over the last four days, they have collected some data about theirpredictions and the actual outcome. Jim predicts the number of guests to be 56 for day 1,50 for day 2, 45 for day 3, and 59 for day 4. John predicts 47, 49, 51, and 51 for the four respective days. The actual numbers of guests turn out to be 45, 51, 41, and 61. Who hasthe bigger forecast bias? What are the MSE and the MAE for Jim and John?
A manufacturing plant makes computer chips 24 hours a day. Employees work one of three, 8 hour shifts during the morning (2am-10am), day (10am-6pm), and night (6pm-2am). Below are data on the number of defective chips on a randomly chosen 24 hour period. Shift Morning Day Night Number of Defective Chips 23 26 47 Total Chips Manufactured 330 330 330 The plant manager thinks there might be more defective computer chips manufactured during the night shift compared to the day shift. Give appropriate statistical evidence to test the managers' claim.
A basketball coach is interested in determining if shooting free throws underhand is better than shooting them using the overhead method. He has four high school teams (two boys' teams and two girls' teams, with 13 players on each team) available to take part in an experiment. He believes that the difference in shooting percentages will vary more for boys than for girls. He randomly chooses and instructs half of the boys to continue shooting free throws overhead and the rest of the boys to shoot underhand. He does the same for the girls. At the end of a six-game summer league, he compares the shooting percentages for the overhead shooting boys to the underhand shooting boys and the overhead shooting girls to the underhand shooting girls. (a) What is the advantage of using a block design for this study? O Blocking by gender will reduce the variation in the response variable by creating homogeneous groups and determining the effect of the new shooting style on the response (percentage of…

Diana tested the effect of number of items on short-term memory in dolphins. She randomly presented visual arrays with 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 items for five minutes. She asked 3 dolphins to remember the items. She then presented a new array with old and new items. The dolphins responded by touching the items with their tails. She hypothesized that Dolphins could remember 3 items accurately, but not more than that. How many pairwise comparisons should she do according to the recommended guideline?
