Each American family is classified as living in an urban, suburban or rural location. During a given year, 15% of all urban families move to a suburban location, and 5% move to a rural location; also, 6% of all suburban families move to an urban location, and 4% move to a rural location; finally, 4% of all rural families move to an urban location, and 6% move to a suburban location. a.If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in an urban area two years from now? b. If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in a suburban area two years from now? c. If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in a rural area two years from now? d. Find the steady-state probabilities.
A research wants to determine if pre-natal exposure to the hormones in birth control pills alters the sex makeup of midshipman fish populations (which are typically half male and half female).Specifically, the researcher wishes to test the hypothesis that exposure to hormones will increase the number of females in the population.The researcher exposes a group of pregnant midshipman fish to birth control hormones and records the sex of the first 18 offspring birthed.They then observe that 10 are female.Use a sign test to test the indicated hypothesis.What is the value of "significance"
Each American family is classified as living in an urban, rural, or suburban location. During a given year, 15% of all urban families move to a suburban location, and 5% move to a rural location; also, 6% of all suburban families move to an urban location, and 4% move to a rural location; finally, 4% of all rural families move to an urban location, and 6% move to a suburban location. a If a family now lives in an urban location, what is the probability that it will live in an urban area two years from now? A suburban area? A rural area? b Suppose that at present, 40% of all families live in an urban area, 35% live in a suburban area, and 25% live in a rural area. Two years from now, what percent- of American families will live in an urban area? c What problems might occur if this model were used to predict the future population distribution of the United States? age
Michael wants to know if support for a local referendum on gay rights is related to political party affiliation. He conducts a survey of 200 local residents and asks them their political party affiliation and whether they intend to vote for or against the referendum. He learns that 16 people who say they are republican are for the referendum and 54 are against. Of those who say they are democrat, 72 people are for the referendum and 28 are against it. Some people identified as “other” and among that group, 3 were against the referendum and 27 were in favor of it. 1. Conduct the appropriate analysis with α=.05. 2. What should Michael conclude?
On a youth soccer team 3 out of 12 team members have played in previous years. Based on this information, if 150 kids are in the youth soccer league, then how many could be expected to have played the year before?
The Pew Internet & American life project conducted a survey that included several questions about how Internet users feel about search engines and other websites collecting information about them and using this information either to shape search results or target advertising to them. In one question, participants were asked, "If a search engine kept track of what you search for, and then used that information to personalize your future search results, how would you feel about that?" Respondents could indicate either "Would not be okay with it because you feel it is an invasion of your privacy" or "Would be okay with it, even if it means they are gathering information about you." Joint probabilities of responses and age groups are summarized in the following table. Age Not Okay Okay 18-29 0.1485 0.0601 30-49 0.2286 0.0922 50+ 0.4024 0.0682 Round your answers to four decimal places. a. What is the probability a respondent will say she or he is not okay with this practice?…
A report in the college newsletter used the registrar's database for all the students in the school to look at majors and classes being taken this semester. The report includes the sentences:
According to the United States Census Bureau (2011 data), there are approximately 55,500,000 married couple households in the United State. Every married-couple household is classified into one of three categories:• both native which means that both spouses were born in the U.S.• both foreign which means that both spouses were born outside of the U.S.• one native, one foreign which means that one spouse was born in the U.S. and one was born outside of the U.S..If 79.5% of married couple households are both native and 13.2% are both foreign, then(a) what percentage of married couple households are one native, one foreign % married couple households are one native, one foreign(b) how many married couple households are one native, one foreign? married couple households are one native, one foreign
After an earthquake, 32 homes in a remote area were checked by public safety officers before nightfall. They found that 22 of the houses had no gas, including 10 houses whose own gas lines were damaged. (A house loses its gas service if it has damage to its own line or if there is damage to the feeder line.) Of those houses that lost their gas, only 4 did not lose their electricity. Twenty-four houses in all had no electricity, the same number of them lost only their electricity as those that both lost electricity and had damage to their gas lines. How many of the houses checked did not lose either gas or electricity, and how many lost only their gas service! Students, draw anywhere on this slide!
In a series of studies, Sebastian Deri and his colleagues (2017) asked multiple groups about the number of friend groups they had and how often they attended different social events. They then asked participants how they thought their own numbers compared to other people's: Did participants see themselves as less social, the same as, or more social than others? In the first study, the researchers reported that: "Three hundred four participants from Amazon's Mechanical Turk (150 women; Mage = 37.1; 78% White, 10% Black, and 6% Asian) completed a survey in exchange for modest payment" (p. 860). What do the researchers mean by "Amazon's Mechanical Turk" with respect to their sample of participants? O A. An archival data set that already exists and from which researchers can use data O B. An online tool that researchers can use to recruit people to participate in research in exchange for a small payment O C. An e-book sold by Amazon that includes contact information for possible…
