Chapter 5: Q. 73 (page 350)

The Pew Research Center asked a random sample of 2024adult cell-phone owners from the United States their age and which type of cell phone they own: iPhone, Android, or other (including non-smartphones). The two-way table summarizes the data.

Suppose we select one of the survey respondents at random.

a. Find P(iPhone|18-34).

b. Use your answer from part (a) to help determine if the events 鈥渋Phone鈥� and "18-34"are independent.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part a. 0.327

Part b. iPhone & 18-34are not independent.

Step by step solution

01

Part a. Step 1. Given information

The Table is-

02

Part a. Step 2. Calculation

We have,

P(iPhone|18-34)=169517=0.327

Therefore, the solution is0.327.

03

Part b. Step 1. Calculation

We have,

P(iPhone|18-34)=P(iPhone鈭�18-34)P(18-34)

If iPhone & 18-34are independent

=P(iPhone|路P(18-34)P(18-34)=P(iPhone)

Now,

P(iPhone)=4672024=0.2307鈮�0.327

Therefore, iPhone & 18-34are not independent.

Cell phonesThe Pew Research Center asked a random sample of 2024adult cell-phone owners from the United States their age and which type of cell phone they own: iPhone, Android, or other (including non-smartphones). The two-way table summarizes the data.

Suppose we select one of the survey respondents at random. What鈥檚 the probability that:

a. The person is not age 18to 34and does not own an iPhone?

b. The person is age 18to 34or owns an iPhone?

Three pointers The figure shows the results of a basketball player attempting many3鈥�

point shots. Explain what this graph tells you about chance behavior in the short run and

long run.

Who鈥檚 paying? Abigail, Bobby, Carlos, DeAnna, and Emily go to the bagel shop for lunch every Thursday. Each time, they randomly pick 2of the group to pay for lunch by drawing names from a hat.

a. Give a probability model for this chance process.

b. Find the probability that Carlos or DeAnna (or both) ends up paying for lunch.

The dotplot displays the number of made shots in 100simulated sets of 50free throw by someone with probability 0.56of making a free throw.

Which of the following is an appropriate statement about Wilt鈥檚 free-throw shooting

based on this dotplot?

a. If Wilt were still only a 56%shooter, the probability that he would make at least 34of his shots is about0.03.

b. If Wilt were still only a 56%shooter, the probability that he would make at least 34of his shots is about 0.97..

c. If Wilt is now shooting better than 56%, the probability that he would make at least 34of his shots is about 0.03.

d. If Wilt is now shooting better than56%, the probability that he would make at least 34of his shots is about0.97.

e. If Wilt were still only a 56%shooter, the probability that he would make at least 34of his shots is about 0.01.

Lefties A website claims that 10%of U.S. adults are left-handed. A researcher believes that this figure is too low. She decides to test this claim by taking a random sample of 20U.S. adults and recording how many are left-handed. Four of the adults in the sample are left-handed. Does this result give convincing evidence that the website鈥檚 10%claim is too low? To find out, we want to perform a simulation to estimate the probability of getting 4or more left-handed people in a random sample of size 20from a very large population in which 10%of the people are left-handed.

Let 00to 09indicate left-handed and 10to 99 represent right-handed. Move left to Page Number: 311right across a row in Table D. Each pair of digits represents one person. Keep going until you get20 different pairs of digits. Record how many people in the simulated sample are left-handed. Repeat this process many, many times. Find the proportion of trials in which4 or more people in the simulated sample were left-handed.
