Suppose a population consists of the following values: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9. If random samples of size 3 are to be selected without replacement and order not important, then how many samples can be taken from this population?

Suppose you rolled a fair six-sided die a few times and recorded the results. (You would have a collection of numbers 1-6.) Now, suppose you wanted to average these numbers. What value would you expect? If the die was rolled 6 times and the results were: 1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 2, then the average of this sample of rolls would be 2.333. This experiment could be peformed again: 6, 5, 2, 1, 1, 4. Now, the average of this sample is 3.167. Obviously, these small samples have a lot of variation in them; however, is there a way to calculate the expected average? If we were to construct a very large sample, rolling this die 1 million times, what would the expected value (mean) be? Luckily, the rules of probability allows us to do this calculation without actually having to roll the die 1 million times! Below, you will find a probability table where all of the possible outcomes from the die are listed. The first column contains the possible outcomes on the die, the second column contains the…

Q1) Below find the records of 12 randomly selected used pickup trucks (none used commercially) and 11 randomly selected used passenger cars, the time (in years) that they were kept by the original owner before being sold: Used pickup trucks | 3 | 2.5 2.9 5 4.2 3.1 3.3 4 5.3 3.8 4.5 Used passenger cars | 2.2 3 2.8 4.3 4 3.3 2.9 2.1 2 3.1 3 It is known that the standard deviation of used pickup trucks is 2 years and of used passenger cars is 1 year. (a) Investigate, at the 5% significant level, whether the mean time (in years) that used pickup trucks were kept by the original owner before sold is larger than used passenger cars. (b) What assumption is needed to perform the test in (a). (c) Construct the 96% confidence interval for the mean difference of time (in years) were kept by the original owner before sold between used passenger cars and used pickup trucks. Use this confidence interval to tell whether there is difference in the mean time (in years) between these 2 tynes of…
2. In a population it is estimated that 20% have a desired trait of interest for the researcher. The researcher wants to know how many people on average he has to draw from a population to get 2 people with the trait. Use rows 20-24 of the Random Number Table to carry out the simulation. Explain clearly how you set up the problem and report your findings. Answer:
2.4.4 A bag contains 1 red, 1 black and 1 green marble. I randomly select 1 of the marbles and record its color. I then replace it in the bag, shake the bag, and randomly select a second marble, again recording its color. The second marble is then replaced and a third marble is randomly selected and its color recorded. How many different samples of 3 colors could occur?
3. An integer is randomly chosen from the set 1, 2,..., 100. If this integer is divisible by 2 we let Y = 0, and if it is not divisible by 2 but is divisible by 3 then Y = 1. We let Y = 2 in all other cases. Find mean and variance of Y.

Here is a sample of amounts of weight change (kg) of college students in their freshman year: 13, 7, -3, -5, where -5 represents a loss of 5 kg and positive values represent weight gained. Here are ten bootstrap samples: {13, 13, 13, -3), (13, -5, -3, 13}, {13, 5, 7, 3), (7, 5, 3, 13), {-3, -3, -3, 7}, {7, 5, 7, 5), (13, 7, 5, 3}, {-5, 7, 5, 7), {-5, -3, -5, 7}, {7, 13, 13, 13). Complete parts (a) and (b) below. a. Using only the ten given bootstrap samples, construct an 80% confidence interval estimate of the mean weight change for the population. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
A single strand of a DNA molecule is a sequence of nucleotides. There are four possible nucleotides in eachposition (step), one of which is cytosine (C). In a particular long strand, it has been observed that C appearsin 34.1% of the positions. Also, in 36.8% of the cases where C appears in one position along the strand, italso appears in the next position.1. What is the probability that a randomly chosen pair of adjacent nucleotides is CC (that has cytosinein both locations).2. If a position along the strand is not C, then what is the probability that the next position is C?3. If a position n along the strand is C, what is the probability that position n + 2 is also C? How aboutposition n + 4?4. Answer parts (a)- (c) if C appeared independently in any one position with probability 0.341.
