Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that an online poll at a website was asked. This question was based on the research that do you think that ephedra should continue to be banned nationwide. Thus, the comment on this was: With a
(b)
To comment on each of the following statement about the poll.
(b)
Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that an online poll at a website was asked. This question was based on the research that do you think that ephedra should continue to be banned nationwide. Thus, the comment on this was: The wording of the question is clearly very biased. Thus, we can say about the comment is that the wording is not necessarily biased since it only states the facts that lead to the respondents making a justified conclusion.
(c)
To comment on each of the following statement about the poll.
(c)
Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that an online poll at a website was asked. This question was based on the research that do you think that ephedra should continue to be banned nationwide. Thus, the comment on this was: The sampling frame is all internet users. Thus, we can say about the comment that the sampling frame would be all Internet users who see this online poll because not all Internet users will be able to see this poll.
(d)
To comment on each of the following statement about the poll.
(d)
Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that an online poll at a website was asked. This question was based on the research that do you think that ephedra should continue to be banned nationwide. Thus, the comment on this was: Results of this voluntary response survey cannot be reliable generalized to any population of interest. Thus, we can say about this comment that this is true because this survey displays response bias where only the individuals who see this poll would be able to voice their opinions.

If X has an exponential distribution with the parameter 0, use the distribution function technique to find the probability density of the random variable Y = ln X. bilaga in dwreatarrow_forward3.

When a margin of error is reported for a survey, it includes a. random sampling error and other practical difficulties like undercoverage and non-response b. random sampling error, but not other practical difficulties like undercoverage and nonresponse c. practical difficulties like undercoverage and nonresponse, but not random smapling error d. none of the above is corretarrow_forward
- solve the question based on hw 1, 1.41arrow_forwardT1.4: 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_forward
