Sampling senators Refer to Exercise 50.

(a) Construct a Venn diagram that models the chance process using events R: is a Republican, and F: is female.

(b) Find P(RF) Interpret this value in context.

(c) Find P(RcFc) Interpret this value in context.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (b) P(RF)=0.53

Part (c) P(RcFc)=0.47

Part (a) Venn diagram is

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given Information

The two-way table below shows who was a member of the United States Senate in the previous year.

02

Part (a) Step 2. Concept Used

A Venn diagram is a visual representation of relationships between things or limited groups of objects using circles. Circles that overlap have similar qualities to circles that do not overlap. Venn diagrams are graphic representations of the similarities and differences between two concepts.

03

Part (a)  Step 3. Explanation

The model is based on a random process with the events R: Republican and F: Female.

The Venn diagram is transformed into,

04

Part (b) Step 1. Calculation

Probability=NumberoffavorableoutcomesTotalpossibleoutcomes

Total number of possible outcomes: 100

Therefore, P(RF)=36+4+13100=0.53

05

Part (c) Step 1. Calculation    

P(Ac)=1-P(A)

100 different scenarios are possible.

Therefore,

P(RcFc)=1P(RF)P(RcFc)=10.53=0.47

03

Part (a)  Step 3. Explanation

The model is based on a random process in which event B: Eats breakfast on a regular basis and M: is male.

Venn diagram becomes,

04

Part (b) Step 1. Calculation

Probability =Number of favorable outcomes/Total possible outcomes

The total number of conceivable outcomes is 100

Therefore, P(R 鈭 F) = = 0.53

05

Part (c) Step 1. Calculation

P(Ac)=1-P(A)

100 different scenarios are possible.

Therefore,

P(R 鈭 ) = 1 鈭 P(R 鈭 F) c Fc

P(R 鈭 ) = 1 鈭 0.53 = 0.47

Preparing for the GMAT A company that offers courses to prepare students for the Graduate Management The admission Test (GMAT) has the following information about its customers: 20% are currently undergraduate students in business; 15% are undergraduate students in other fields of study; 60% are

college graduates who are currently employed, and 5% are college graduates who are not employed. Choose a customer at random.

(a) What鈥檚 the probability that the customer is currently an undergraduate? Which rule of probability did you use to find the answer?

(b) What鈥檚 the probability that the customer is not an undergraduate business student? Which rule of probability did you use to find the answer?

Late shows Some TV shows begin after their scheduled times when earlier programs run late. According to a network鈥檚 records, about 3% of its shows start late. To find the probability that three consecutive shows on this network start on time, can we multiply (0.97)(0.97)(0.97)? Why or why not?

Recycling Do most teens recycle? To find out, an AP Statistics class asked an SRS of 100 students at their school whether they regularly recycle. How many students in the sample would need to say 鈥淵es鈥 to provide convincing evidence that more than half of the students at the school recycle? The Fathom dot plot below shows the results of taking 200 SRSs of 100 students from a population in which the true proportion who recycle is 0.50.

(a) Suppose 55 students in the class鈥檚 sample say 鈥淵es.鈥 Explain why this result does not give convincing evidence that more than half of the school鈥檚 students recycle.

(b) Suppose 63 students in the class鈥檚 sample say 鈥淵es.鈥 Explain why this result gives strong evidence that a majority of the school鈥檚 students recycle.

In a table of random digits such as Table D, each digit is equally likely to be any of 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, or 9 What is the probability that a digit in the

table is7 or greater? (a) 7/10(c) 4/10 (e) 1/10 (b) 6/10 (d) 3/10

Who eats breakfast? Students in an urban school were curious about how many children regularly eat breakfast. They conducted a survey, asking, 鈥淒o you eat breakfast on a regular basis?鈥 All 595 students in the school responded to the survey. The resulting data are shown in the two-way table

below.7 Male Female Total Eats breakfast regularly 190110300 Doesn鈥檛 eat breakfast regularly 130165295Total320275595

(a) Who are the individuals? What variables are being measured?

(b) If we select a student from the school at random, what is the probability that we choose

  • a female?
  • someone who eats breakfast regularly?
  • a female who eats breakfast regularly?
  • a female or someone who eats breakfast

regularly?
