Concept explainers
(a)
To display: the given data in a bar graph
(a)
Answer to Problem 16E
The height of the bar shows the category count or percentage.
The bar graph of the given data is below.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
Bar graph is used to display the distribution of a categorical variable more vividly. It represents each category as a bar. The height of the bar shows the category count or percentage. The bar graph of the given data is below:
By looking at the bar graph we observe that the percentage of people which attend a movie in the past 12 months is decreasing as the age is increasing. We inference that the interest in movies diminishes as the age increases.
Conclusion:
Therefore,older people seems to go the movies less than the younger people.
(b)
To explain: whether it is correct to make a pie chart of the given data.
(b)
Answer to Problem 16E
It would not be correct to make pie chart of these data.
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
Pie chart is used to display the distribution of categorical variables as a “pie” whose slices are sized by the counts or percent for the categories. A pie chart must include all the categories that make up a whole which is not the case in the given data. Also each percentage in the table refers to a different age group, not to parts of a single whole thus it would not be correct to make pie chart of these data.
Conclusion:
Therefore, it would not be correct to make pie chart of these data.
(c)
To explain: why the given data do not answer for the percent of the total audience having18 to 24 years old are watching movies.
(c)
Answer to Problem 16E
It is not possible to calculate the total number of audience for movies is 18 to 24 years old.
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
The data does not answer the question if a movie studio wants to know what percent of total audience for movies is 18 to 24 years old because each percentage in the table refers to a different age group, not to parts of a single whole. It is not possible to calculate the total number of audience for movie is 18 to 24 years as it gives the percentage pertaining to that age group not the percentage of total audience as a whole.
Conclusion:
Therefore, it is not possible to calculate the total number of audience for movies is 18 to 24 years old.

- T1.4: Let ẞ(G) be the minimum size of a vertex cover, a(G) be the maximum size of an independent set and m(G) = |E(G)|. (i) Prove that if G is triangle free (no induced K3) then m(G) ≤ a(G)B(G). Hints - The neighborhood of a vertex in a triangle free graph must be independent; all edges have at least one end in a vertex cover. (ii) Show that all graphs of order n ≥ 3 and size m> [n2/4] contain a triangle. Hints - you may need to use either elementary calculus or the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality.arrow_forwardWe consider the one-period model studied in class as an example. Namely, we assumethat the current stock price is S0 = 10. At time T, the stock has either moved up toSt = 12 (with probability p = 0.6) or down towards St = 8 (with probability 1−p = 0.4).We consider a call option on this stock with maturity T and strike price K = 10. Theinterest rate on the money market is zero.As in class, we assume that you, as a customer, are willing to buy the call option on100 shares of stock for $120. The investor, who sold you the option, can adopt one of thefollowing strategies: Strategy 1: (seen in class) Buy 50 shares of stock and borrow $380. Strategy 2: Buy 55 shares of stock and borrow $430. Strategy 3: Buy 60 shares of stock and borrow $480. Strategy 4: Buy 40 shares of stock and borrow $280.(a) For each of strategies 2-4, describe the value of the investor’s portfolio at time 0,and at time T for each possible movement of the stock.(b) For each of strategies 2-4, does the investor have…arrow_forwardNegate the following compound statement using De Morgans's laws.arrow_forward

Prove that G is a complete bipartite grapharrow_forwardProve sufficiency of the condition for a graph to be bipartite that is, prove that if G hasno odd cycles then G is bipartite as follows:Assume that the statement is false and that G is an edge minimal counterexample. That is, Gsatisfies the conditions and is not bipartite but G − e is bipartite for any edge e. (Note thatthis is essentially induction, just using different terminology.) What does minimality say aboutconnectivity of G? Can G − e be disconnected?

Prove that G has a vertex adjacent to all othersarrow_forwardWe consider a one-period market with the following properties: the current stock priceis S0 = 4. At time T = 1 year, the stock has either moved up to S1 = 8 (with probability0.7) or down towards S1 = 2 (with probability 0.3). We consider a call option on thisstock with maturity T = 1 and strike price K = 5. The interest rate on the money marketis 25% yearly.(a) Find the replicating portfolio (φ, ψ) corresponding to this call option.(b) Find the risk-neutral (no-arbitrage) price of this call option.(c) We now consider a put option with maturity T = 1 and strike price K = 3 onthe same market. Find the risk-neutral price of this put option. Reminder: A putoption gives you the right to sell the stock for the strike price K.1(d) An investor with initial capital X0 = 0 wants to invest on this market.
