Chapter 6, Problem 13P

The reciprocal Fibonacci constant ?is defined by the infinite sum:

ψ = n = 1 1 F n

where Fnare the Fibonacci numbers 1, 1,2. 3, 5, 8, 13,.... Each element in this sequence of numbers is the sum of the previous two. Start by setting the first two elements equal to 1, then F n = F n 1 + F n 2 . Write a MATLA B program in a script file that calculates ? for a given n. Execute the program for n = 10, 50,and 100.

In addition to the in-school milk supplement program, the nurse would like to increase the use of daily vitamin supplements for the children by visiting homes and educating about the merits of vitamins. She believes that currently, about 50% of families with school-age children give the children a daily megavitamin. She would like to increase this to 70%. She plans a two-group study, where one group serves as a control and the other group receives her visits. How many families should she expect to visit to have 80% power of detecting this difference? Assume that drop-out rate is 5%.
A recent survey of 400 americans asked whether or not parents do too much for their young adult children. The results of the survey are shown in the data file. a) Construct the frequency and relative frequency distributions. How many respondents felt that parents do too much for their adult children? What proportion of respondents felt that parents do too little for their adult children? b) Construct a pie chart. Summarize the findings
