Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 1CR
Statistical Literacy and Terminology When are two random samples independent?
Expert Solution & Answer

To determine
When two random samples are independent.
Explanation of Solution
Independent samples are samples that are selected randomly so that its observations do not depend on the values of other observations. Many statistical analyses are based on the assumption that samples are independent. If a sample is randomly chosen in the first group from their population and another sample is randomly chosen in the second group from their population, then the two samples are independent random samples.

The following list has statements about the classifiers. In the list, there is a single incorrect statement. Please identify the incorrect
statement.
Hint 1: recall that a classifier dominates another if both performance measures are better.
Hint 2: to help you visualize and compare classifiers, you may want to plot the classifier data in a ROC graph (which will not be
submitted).

This data set will be analysed after centering all columns (not scaling). In what follows, the centered data columns are referred to as
X and Y. Using these centered columns, we have the following quantities: XTX = 24/11 = 2.1818; XTY = 13/11 =
and YTY = 24/11 = 2.1818.
Ridge regression

Q2 Using the ridge estimate ẞ (0.56) you just computed, determine the percentage of shrinkage achieved with respect to the
squared L2 norm. That is, compute the shrinkage using || (0.56)||||||with the OLS estimate. In the provided space, write
the shrinkage as percentage between 0 and 100 with decimal values.

Calculate the 95% confidence intervals for the proportion of children surviving, and the proportion of non-crew adult passengers surviving. We want to use the given data to make inferences about the general population of all large boat crashes, so the data set should be treated as a random sample for this purpose.
Part 2
The 95% confidence interval for survival rate amongst non-crew adults runs from
