Two marbles are drawn randomly from a bag having 5 red, 20 white, 10 blue, and 5 orange marbles. Solve each part, by first considering that the experiment is carried out with replacement and then without replacement. (a) the first is red and the second is white (b) neither is orange (c) they are either red or white or both (red and white)

You're a sociologist studying whether grocery prices are different in the inner cities than they are in the suburbs. To investigate this, you pick a random set of items (a basket of goods), and then send shoppers to buy these items at an inner city (IC) grocery, and also at a suburban (SU) grocery. You pick 27 different baskets of goods, so your secret shoppers buy 27 baskets, once at the inner city store, and once at a suburban store. The data is given in the dataset named "ICvSU_2799.xls", which you can find in data folder under Course Documents. Prices could be higher in the inner city because of discrimination, or they could be higher in the suburbs because of the greater disposable income. Use Excel to test the research hypothesis that inner city prices are different than the suburb's prices. The null hypothesis is that inner city prices are equal to suburban prices. You test at the alpha = 0.01 significance level. What do you conclude? Are prices the same? Who has higher…
Box I contains 4 red and 8 blue marbles while box II contains 5 red and 3 blue marbles. An unfair coin is tossed –whoseprobability of turning up heads is 40%. If the coin comes up heads, box I is chosen and a random marble is chosen, otherwise if it is tails the marble is chosen from box II. Suppose after the first marble is chosen –the experiment is repeated. Assume the first marble is NOT put back into its box. The coin is flipped again and another marble is chosen from either box I or box II. What is the probability that the second marble has the same color as the first marble?
8 For this problem, assume there are 3 grey females, 4 grey males, 2 white females, and 3 white males. As in the book, the biologist selects two mice randomly. (1) What is the probability of selecting two males given that both are grey? (2) What is the probability of selecting 1 mouse of each gender given that both are grey?
Bonnie and her friends are dubious that a new abdominal exercise machine is as effective as its commercial claims. They decide to conduct an experiment to find out. For three months, Bonnie has 25 randomly chosen friends use the new machine, and 25 others do traditional abdominal exercises. At the end of the experiment, she counts the number of sit-ups each friend can do in one minute.

Twenty university students chosen at random from students enrolled at Carthage College took part in an experiment testing the effect of watching ABC News versus CNN on knowledge of world events. The 20 participants were divided randomly into two equal groups of 10 students each. One group was assigned to watch ABC and the other was assigned to watch CNN. Participants then watched their assigned station (ABC or CNN) for 3 hours a night for 4 weeks. At the end of the 4 week period they were administered a test of world knowledge. The results were as follows: XbarABC = 104; sABC = 12 XbarCNN = 99; sCNN = 10 Compute the 95% confidence interval around the difference between the two groups.
Consider two urns: Urn-1 contains 3 red, 2 black and 4 white balls while Urn-2 contains 4 red, 4 black and 3 white balls. An urn is randomly selected with equal chances of it being Urn-1 or Urn-2, and then a ball is picked at random from the selected urn. (a) Find the probability that either a white or a red ball is picked? Your answer correct up to four decimal places. (b) If the picked ball is NOT black, find the probability it came from Urn-2? Your answer correct up to four decimal places.

7. A new drug study was conducted by a drug company. In the study, 10 people were chosen at random to take Vitamin X for 3 months and then have their cholesterol levels checked. In addition, 10 different people were randomly chosen to take Vitamin Y for 3 months and then have their cholesterol levels checked. All 20 people had cholesterol levels between 8 and 10 before taking one of the vitamins. The drug company wanted to see which of the 2 vitamins had the greatest impact on lowering people's cholesterol. The following data was collected: Vitamin X 7.27.5 5.2 6.5 7.7 10 6.47.6 7.77.8 Vitamin Y 4.8 4.44.5 5.1 6.5 8.03.1 4.6 5.2 6.1 (a) Draw a box-and-whisker plot for both sets of data on the same number line. (b) Use the double box-and-whisker plots to compare the 2 vitamins and provide a conclusion for the drug company. (e) State the skewness of both distributions and justify your answer.
