Counting Principles

In statistics, the counting principle can be said to be the concept in which the quantity of an item is determined. There can be a single item, or a group of items, or items that are related to each other. In every possible set of items, the quantity of …

Chapter 6, Problem 9P

Write a program that asks the user to input a vector of integers of arbitrary length. Then, using a for-end loop the program eliminates all the negative elements. The program displays the vector that was entered and the modified vector, and a message that says how many elements were eliminated. Execute the program and when the program ask the user to input a vector type randi ([-15 20], 1, 25). This creates a 25-element vector with random integers between -15 and 20.

Two measurements are made of some quantity. For the first measurement, the average is 74.4528, the RMS error is 6.7441, and the uncertainty of the mean is 0.9264. For the second one, the average is 76.8415, the standard deviation is 8.3348, and the uncertainty of the mean is 1.1448. The expected value is exactly 75. 13. Express the first measurement in public notation. 14. Is there a significant difference between the two measurements? 1 15. How does the first measurement compare with the expected value? 16. How does the second measurement compare with the expected value?

A hat contains slips of paper numbered 1 through 6. You draw two slips of paper at random from the hat,without replacing the first slip into the hat.(a) (5 points) Write out the sample space S for this experiment.(b) (5 points) Express the event E : {the sum of the numbers on the slips of paper is 4} as a subset of S.(c) (5 points) Find P(E)(d) (5 points) Let F = {the larger minus the smaller number is 0}. What is P(F )?(e) (5 points) Are E and F disjoint? Why or why not?(f) (5 points) Find P(E ∪ F )

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%.
