Answer to Problem 18SLCT

The crude mortality rate for Florida = 0.0091

The crude mortality rate for the United States = 0.0080

Explanation of Solution

Given:

     Age 
     0-2425-6465 and olderTotal
    Florida deaths362539820129395172840
    Florida population57168619842031337530318934195
    U.S. deaths 6320861998218322682515458
    U.S. population10354260316396016345296729312799495
    Total10932629717446199650633695334421988

Formula:

  Crude mortality rate=Number of deathsTotal population

The crude mortality rate for Florida is,

  Crude mortality rate=Number of deathsinFloridaTotal populationofFlorida

  Crude mortality rate=17284018934195=0.0091

The crude mortality rate for U.S. is,

  Crude mortality rate=Number of deathsinU.S.Total populationofU.S.Crude mortality rate=2515458312799495=0.0080

We can not compare this crude mortality rate as there are different number of deaths for each age group. So, this might be misleading the results if we compare total crude mortality rate of Florida with U.S.

b)

To determine

To find the mortality rate of Florida and United States for age group 65 and older.

Answer to Problem 18SLCT

The mortality rate for Florida = 0.0383

The mortality rate for the United States = 0.0405

The mortality rate for Florida is,

  Mortality rate=Number of deathsinFloridaPopulationsizeofFloridaMortality rate=1293953375303=0.0383

The mortality rate for U.S. is,

  Mortality rate=Number of deathsinU.S.PopulationsizeofU.S.Mortality rate=183226845296729=0.0405

The mortality rate of U.S. is higher than mortality rate of Florida.

c)

To determine

To find the percentage of population of Florida and U.S. is made up of people aged 65 and older.

c)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 18SLCT

The percentage of population of Florida is made up of people aged 65 and older = 17.8%

The percentage of population of United States is made up of people aged 65 and older = 14.5%

Explanation of Solution

Given:

     Age

    Total10932629717446199650633695334421988

Formula:

  Percentage=Populationofagegroup65andolderTotalPopulationsize

The percentage of population of Florida is made up of people aged 65 and older

  Percentage =337530318934195=17.8%

The percentage of population of U.S. is made up of people aged 65 and older

  Percentage =45296729312799495=14.5%

There is highest percentage of Florida people for age group 65 and older as compare to U.S. population.

Elementary StatisticsBase on the same given data uploaded in module 4, will you conclude that the number of bathroom of houses is a significant factor for house sellprice? I your answer is affirmative, you need to explain how the number of bathroom influences the house price, using a post hoc procedure. (Please treat number of bathrooms as a categorical variable in this analysis)Base on the same given data, conduct an analysis for the variable sellprice to see if sale price is influenced by living area. Summarize your finding including all regular steps (learned in this module) for your method. Also, will you conclude that larger house corresponding to higher price (justify)?Each question need to include a spss or sas output.       Instructions: You have to use SAS or SPSS to perform appropriate procedure: ANOVA or Regression based on the project data (provided in the module 4) and research question in the project file. Attach the computer output of all key steps (number) quoted in…
Elementary StatsBase on the given data uploaded in module 4, change the variable sale price into two categories: abovethe mean price or not; and change the living area into two categories: above the median living area ornot ( your two group should have close number of houses in each group). Using the resulting variables,will you conclude that larger house corresponding to higher price?Note: Need computer output, Ho and Ha, P and decision. If p is small, you need to explain what type ofdependency (association) we have using an appropriate pair of percentages.       Please include how to use the data in SPSS and interpretation of data.
An environmental research team is studying the daily rainfall (in millimeters) in a region over 100 days. The data is grouped into the following histogram bins: Rainfall Range (mm) Frequency 0-9.9 15 10 19.9 25 20-29.9 30 30-39.9 20 ||40-49.9 10 a) If a random day is selected, what is the probability that the rainfall was at least 20 mm but less than 40 mm? b) Estimate the mean daily rainfall, assuming the rainfall in each bin is uniformly distributed and the midpoint of each bin represents the average rainfall for that range. c) Construct the cumulative frequency distribution and determine the rainfall level below which 75% of the days fall. d) Calculate the estimated variance and standard deviation of the daily rainfall based on the histogram data.
