NeX [460]

Answer: 2. All college students

Step-by-step explanation:

A population is a large group of individuals that have some common feature by the researcher's point of interest.

Herero , the Department of Education wishes to estimate the proportion of all college students who have a job off-campus.

So , he need data of all students to compute the exact proportion.

But instead of that he surveyed 1600 randomly selected students which determine the sample.

Sample just gives the estimate of the parameter.

Hence, the population of interest to the Department of education is " All college students" .

Students in an introductory statistics course were asked the following questions as part of a class survey:(1) What is your gend

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answers:

Gender = categorical, nominal variable

Sleep length = numerical, continuous

Bedtime = categorical, ordinal

Number of countries visited = numerical, discrete

Scale of dreading semester = categorical, ordinal

=========================

Explanation:

Gender is categorical because there are two categories or labels, male or female. It is nominal because we simply attach names to each label and we can't sort them or order them from highest to lowest. There is no ranking for gender.

Sleep length is numerical as it deals with numbers. I put continuous because someone could write 2.5 hours or 3.75 hours. If whole numbers are only allowed, then the variable would be discrete.

The bedtime portion is categorical as each time slot is a category. Like with the first part, they are simply labels. We can order them however from earliest to later on, which is why this variable is ordinal.

The number of countries visited is numeric as expected, and it's also discrete because we can't visit 0.1 of a country. By "visit", I mean step foot in any part of the country for any length of time. It does not mean you have to explore every square inch of the territory.

The last part is categorical and ordinal. The scale ranking is ordered for us from 1 to 5. Despite the fact we have numbers here, the data is not numerical as the numbers 1 through 5 represent labels of "very little" through "a lot".

ryzh [129]

Answer:

a) Joint ptobability distribution

$\begin{pmatrix} &Y=0&Y=1&Y=2&Y=3&Y=4\\X=0&0.3&0.05&0.025&0.025&0.1\\ X=1&0.18&0.03&0.015&0.015&0.06 \\ X=2&0.12&0.02&0.01&0.01&0.04\end{pmatrix}$

b) P(X<= 1 and Y <= 1) = P(X<= 1) * P(Y<=1) = 0.56

c) P(X + Y = 0)=0.3

d) P(X + Y <= 1)=0.53

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct the joint probability table with the marginal probabilities of X and Y.

X can take values from 0 to 2, and Y can take values from 0 to 4.

We can calculate each point of the joint probability as:

$P(x,y)=P_x(x)*P_y(y)$

Then, the joint probabilities are:

X=0 Y=0 Px=0.5 Px=0.6 P(0,0)=0.3

X=0 Y=1 Px=0.5 Px=0.1 P(0,1)=0.05

X=0 Y=2 Px=0.5 Px=0.05 P(0,2)=0.025

X=0 Y=3 Px=0.5 Px=0.05 P(0,3)=0.025

X=0 Y=4 Px=0.5 Px=0.2 P(0,4)=0.1

X=1 Y=0 Px=0.3 Px=0.6 P(1,0)=0.18

X=1 Y=1 Px=0.3 Px=0.1 P(1,1)=0.03

X=1 Y=2 Px=0.3 Px=0.05 P(1,2)=0.015

X=1 Y=3 Px=0.3 Px=0.05 P(1,3)=0.015

X=1 Y=4 Px=0.3 Px=0.2 P(1,4)=0.06

X=2 Y=0 Px=0.2 Px=0.6 P(2,0)=0.12

X=2 Y=1 Px=0.2 Px=0.1 P(2,1)=0.02

X=2 Y=2 Px=0.2 Px=0.05 P(2,2)=0.01

X=2 Y=3 Px=0.2 Px=0.05 P(2,3)=0.01

X=2 Y=4 Px=0.2 Px=0.2 P(2,4)=0.04

We can write it in the form of a matrix:

$\begin{pmatrix} &Y=0&Y=1&Y=2&Y=3&Y=4\\X=0&0.3&0.05&0.025&0.025&0.1\\ X=1&0.18&0.03&0.015&0.015&0.06 \\ X=2&0.12&0.02&0.01&0.01&0.04\end{pmatrix}$

b) From the joint probability P(X<= 1 and Y <= 1) is equal to

$P(X\leq 1 \& Y \leq 1)=P(0,0)+P(0,1)+P(1,0)+P(1,1)\\\\P(X\leq 1 \& Y \leq 1)=0.3+0.05+0.18+0.03=0.56$

We can calculate P(X<= 1) * P(Y<=1)

$P_x(X\leq 1)=P_x(0)+P_x(1)=0.5+0.3=0.8\\\\P_y(Y\leq1)=P_y(0)+P_y(1)=0.6+0.1=0.7\\\\P_x(X\leq1)*P_y(Y\leq1)=0.8*0.7=0.56$

Both calculations give the same result.

c) Probability of no violations

$P(X+Y=0)=P(0,0)=0.3$

d) P(X + Y <= 1)

$P(X+Y \leq 1)=P(0,0)+P(0,1)+P(1,0)\\\\P(X+Y \leq 1)=0.3+0.05+0.18=0.53$

Draw the image of the following segment after a dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 2/3

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ends of the given segment are A and B.

Coordinates of A → (8, 6)

Coordinates of B → (12, 12)

If a point (x, y) is dilated by a scale factor 'k' about the origin, rule to be followed,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

If k = $\frac{2}{3}$

(x, y) → $(\frac{2}{3}x, \frac{2}{3}y)$

By this rule coordinates of the image points of A and B will be,

A(8, 6) → $A'(\frac{2\times 8}{3},\frac{2\times 6}{3})$

→ A'(5.3, 4)

B(12, 12) → $B'(\frac{12\times 2}{3}, \frac{12\times 2}{3})$

→ B'(8, 8)

Now we can get the image of segment AB after dilation by a scale factor of $\frac{2}{3}$ .
