Which of the following conclusions is supported by this diagram?
a) There are currently several billion people living in the country
b) Slightly more girls than boys were born during the past five years.
c) The birthrate has been steadily decreasing for the past 25 years. 
d)The country experienced a population decrease between 30 and 35 years ago.
Three businesswomen are trying to convene in Cincinnati for a business meeting. The first women (Woman 1) is arriving on a flight from Atlanta, the second (Woman 2) is arriving on a flight from Dallas, and the third (Woman 3) is arriving on a flight from Chicago. Historical data suggests that the Atlanta flight is “on time” 90% of the time, the Dallas flight is “on time” 95% of the time, and the Chicago flight is “on time” 80% of the time. Furthermore, historical data suggests that the three flights are independent with respect to on time behavior.
Define the sample space for this random experiment.
Compute the probability for each of the outcomes in the sample space.
Let W denote the number of business women that arrive on time.
Construct the probability mass function of W
Construct the cumulative distribution function of W
Find the expected value of W
Compute the standard deviation of W
8) In the US, 4.5% of the population identifies as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or
transgender (see, for instance, this report). In the UK, the LGBT community
accounts for 1.5% of the population. Which of the following can be inferred from
the given information?
a) The number of LGBT individuals in the US is greater than that in the UK.
b) The proportion of LGBT individuals in the US is 3% greater than the
proportion of LGBT individuals in the UK.
c) The proportion of LGBT individuals in the UK is 3% less than that in the US.
d) The proportion of LGBT individuals in the UK is 200% greater than that in the
US.
e) The proportion of LGBT individuals in the US is 200% greater than that in the
UK.

- Cholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.arrow_forwardA loan officer knows that 50% of loan applicants in their 20s have bad credit, 40% of loan applicants in their 30s have bad credit, and 20% of loan applicants age 40 or greater have bad credit.

In a study of modeling, one group of 20 children saw an adult acting aggres- sively on videotape. Another group of 20 children saw the same adult acting aggressively in real life. Later, each child was placed in a room where he or she was given the opportunity to behave aggressively toward a Bobo doll (a humanlike dummy). The researchers recorded the number of aggressive acts toward the Bobo doll by each child in a 15-minute period. Here are the results: Real-Life Model Video Model X f f 37 1 25 1 35 23 3 34 3 22 30 21 5 27 4 19 4 22 18 19 17 18 3 10 Compare the two groups in terms of the aggressiveness displayed.

The College of Engineering of a State University gives an entrance exam to incoming freshmen. Those who got scores equal or higher than the set passing are accepted in the College. The average score of the incoming freshmen was 80% before the implementation of K to 12 education system. Due to this implementation, the entrance exam was suspended for two years and it is thought that the quality of the first year students had diminished. However, with the vision, mission, goals and objectives of the University and the College towards quality education, the Dean wants to determine if the quality of freshmen students has changed. He wants to know if it has improved or diminished so a small random sample of 15 freshmen students and administers the same entrance exam. The average score is found to be 83% with a standard deviation of 5%. Determine whether the quality has changed using 1% level of significance.arrow_forward
- 2. In a Calif. study, Dean Lester Breslow and Dr. James Enstrom of the UCLA School of Public Health concluded that by following 7 simple health rules a man's life can be extended by 11 years on the average, and a women's life by 7 years. The 7 rules are: 1. no smoking 2. regular exercise 3. use alcohol moderately 4. get 7 to 8 hours of sleep nightly 5. maintain proper weight 6. eat breakfast 7. do not eat between meals In how many ways can a person adopt exactly FIVE of these rules IF: a) the person presently violates all 7 rules?? b) the person already never drinks and always eats breakfast ??arrow_forward2) . In February 2021, the Chicago Tribune reported:“The overdose epidemic that has ravaged Chicago has not spared the nearby suburbs, some of which have death rates comparable to anything seen in the city, according to a report released this week by the Cook County Department of Public Health. ZIP codes in the towns of Worth, Broadview, Maywood, and Forest Park, areas that “have substantially lower median household incomes and higher poverty rates,” have been especially hard-hit, the report said.”In the article, they claimed that lower incomes were associated with higher overdose death rates and that overdose death rates are increasing over time. The data you have been analyzing wasn’t focused on Chicago, obviously. But do your results support the general gist of the statistical argument being made in this Tribune excerpt?

At the age of 83, he became the oldest actor to ever win the Oscar for Best Actor. This made Kelly, a student in Quantitative Reason, wonder about the age differences between those who have won the award for Best Actor compared with those who have won the award for Best Actress. Based on her research, Kelly believes that there is clear gender discrimination for this award by the memberss of the Academy of Motion Pictures. Below are two box plots showing the ages of the Oscar winners for these two categories over the last 44 years. Best Actor 29 38 44 51 83 Best Actress 21 30 35 47 80 a) Look at the box plot for Best Actor.

Modified Exercise 2.36 A restaurant offers three ways of paying the bill: cash, credit card, and mobile payment (e.g., Apple Pay, Google Wallet). At the end of the day there were 200 paid bills. Some of the bills were paid with a mix of cash, credit card, and mobile payment. There were 36 bills paid with cash, 82 bills paid with credit card, and 113 bills paid by mobile payment. There were 8 bills that used cash and credit card, 13 bills that used cash and mobile payment, and 15 bills that used credit card and mobile payment.
