- Economists use Lorenz curves to illustrate the distribution of income in a country. A Lorenz curve, y = f(x), represents the actual income distribution in the country. In this model, x represents percents of families in the country from the poorest to the wealthiest and y represents percents of total income. The model y = x represents a country in which each family has the same income. The area between these two models, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 100, indicates a country’s “income inequality.” The table lists percents of income y for selected percents of families x in a country. (a) Use a graphing utility to find a quadratic model for the Lorenz curve. (b) Plot the data and graph the model. (c) Graph the model y = x. How does this model compare with the model in part (a)?

O True Falsearrow_forwardEconomists use Lorenz curves to illustrate the distribution of income in a country. Letting x represent the percent of families in a country and y the percent of total income, the model y = x would represent a country in which each family had the same income. The Lorenz curve, y = f(x), represents the actual income distribution. The area between these two models, for 0 sxs 100, indicates the "income inequality" of a country. In 2013, the Lorenz curve for a country could be modeled by y = (0.00068x2 + 0.0140x + 1.723)2, OSx S 100 where x is measured from the poorest to the wealthiest families.

In most cases this bias is ignored. If it is important to reduce this bias, however, a bias-corrected estimate is U(X) – (1/2)(PU /dx . In general the bias-corrected estimate is not unbiased, but has a smaller bias than U(X). Assume that the radius of a circle is measured to be r = 3.0 + 0.1 cm. Estimate the area A, and find the uncertainty in the estimate, without bias correction. Compute the bias-corrected estimate of A. Compare the difference between the bias-corrected and non-bias-corrected estimates to the uncertainty in the non-bias-corrected estimate. Is bias coIrection important in this case? Explain. a. b.
