7. In a 2011 article, M. Radelet and G. Pierce reported a logistic prediction equation
for the death penalty verdicts in North Carolina. Let Y denote whether a subject
convicted of murder received the death penalty (1=yes), for the defendant's race
h (h1, black; h = 2, white), victim's race i (i = 1, black; i = 2, white), and
number of additional factors j (j = 0, 1, 2). For the model
logit[P(Y = 1)] = a + ß₁₂ + By + B²²,
they reported = -5.26, D
â
BD
=
0, BD
=
0.17, BY = 0, BY
=
0.91, B = 0,
B = 2.02, B = 3.98.
(a) Estimate the probability of receiving the death penalty for the group most
likely to receive it. [4 pts]
(b) If, instead, parameters used constraints 3D = BY = 35 = 0, report the esti-
mates. [3 pts]
h
(c) If, instead, parameters used constraints Σ₁ = Σ₁ BY = Σ; B = 0, report
the estimates. [3 pts]
Hint the probabilities, odds and odds ratios do not change with constraints.

- Question 1:We want to evaluate the impact on the monetary economy for a company of two types of strategy (competitive strategy, cooperative strategy) adopted by buyers.Competitive strategy: strategy characterized by firm behavior aimed at obtaining concessions from the buyer.Cooperative strategy: a strategy based on a problem-solving negotiating attitude, with a high level of trust and cooperation.A random sample of 17 buyers took part in a negotiation experiment in which 9 buyers adopted the competitive strategy, and the other 8 the cooperative strategy. The savings obtained for each group of buyers are presented in the pdf that i sent: For this problem, we assume that the samples are random and come from two normal populations of unknown but equal variances.According to the theory, the average saving of buyers adopting a competitive strategy will be lower than that of buyers adopting a cooperative strategy.a) Specify the population identifications and the hypotheses H0 and H1…arrow_forwardYou assume that the annual incomes for certain workers are normal with a mean of $28,500 and a standard deviation of $2,400.
