The chance that a randomly selected person in a population would have voted Conservative in the most recent general election is known as theata. A random sample of people from this group responds "True" or "False" in a specific type of "randomised response" experiment.
False' to either of the next two claims.
(a)I cast a Conservative vote in the most recent general election.
(b)I didn't cast a Conservative vote in the most recent general election.
The probability of responding to (a) and (b), where p is known and 0p1, are ensured to be p and 1-p, respectively, using a randomising device. Write out an expression for A in terms of p and 0 if x is the likelihood that someone will respond "True" to the question.
24 of the 43 participants in an experiment where p was fixed at 0–3 were mathematics professors taking a statistics course, and the response rate was 'True.' To calculate theata, use these numbers.
