To better understand how husbands and wives feel about their finances, Money Magazine conducted a national poll of 1010 married
Xelga [282]

Answer:

  • a. See the table below
  • b. See the table below
  • c. 0.548
  • d. 0.576
  • e. 0.534
  • f) i) 0.201, ii) 0.208

Explanation:

First, order the information provided:

Table: "Who is better at getting deals?"

                                       Who Is Better?

Respondent      I Am        My Spouse     We Are Equal

Husband           278             127                     102

Wife                   290            111                       102

<u>a. Develop a joint probability table and use it to answer the following questions. </u>

The<em> joint probability table</em> shows the same information but as proportions. Hence, you must divide each number of the table by the total number of people in the set of responses.

1. Number of responses: 278 + 127 + 102 + 290 + 111 + 102 = 1,010.

2. Calculate each proportion:

  • 278/1,010 = 0.275
  • 127/1,010 = 0.126
  • 102/1,010 = 0.101
  • 290/1,010 = 0.287
  • 111/1,010 = 0.110
  • 102/1,010 = 0.101

3. Construct the table with those numbers:

<em>Joint probability table</em>:

Respondent      I Am        My Spouse     We Are Equal

Husband           0.275           0.126                 0.101

Wife                   0.287           0.110                  0.101

Look what that table means: it tells that the joint probability of being a husband and responding "I am" is 0.275. And so for every cell: every cell shows the joint probability of a particular gender with a particular response.

Hence, that is why that is the joint probability table.

<u>b. Construct the marginal probabilities for Who Is Better (I Am, My Spouse, We Are Equal). Comment.</u>

The marginal probabilities are calculated for each for each row and each column of the table. They are shown at the margins, that is why they are called marginal probabilities.

For the colum "I am" it is: 0.275 + 0.287 = 0.562

Do the same for the other two colums.

For the row "Husband" it is 0.275 + 0.126 + 0.101 = 0.502. Do the same for the row "Wife".

Table<em> Marginal probabilities</em>:

Respondent      I Am        My Spouse     We Are Equal     Total

Husband           0.275           0.126                 0.101             0.502

Wife                   0.287           0.110                  0.101             0.498

Total                 0.562           0.236                0.202             1.000

Note that when you add the marginal probabilities of the each total, either for the colums or for the rows, you get 1. Which is always true for the marginal probabilities.

<u>c. Given that the respondent is a husband, what is the probability that he feels he is better at getting deals than his wife? </u>

For this you use conditional probability.

You want to determine the probability of the response be " I am" given that the respondent is a "Husband".

Using conditional probability:

  • P ( "I am" / "Husband") = P ("I am" ∩ "Husband) / P("Husband")

  • P ("I am" ∩ "Husband) = 0.275 (from the intersection of the column "I am" and the row "Husband)

  • P("Husband") = 0.502 (from the total of the row "Husband")

  • P ("I am" ∩ "Husband) / P("Husband") = 0.275 / 0.502 = 0.548

<u>d. Given that the respondent is a wife, what is the probability that she feels she is better at getting deals than her husband?</u>

You want to determine the probability of the response being "I am" given that the respondent is a "Wife", for which you use again the formula for conditional probability:

  • P ("I am" / "Wife") = P ("I am" ∩ "Wife") / P ("Wife")

  • P ("I am" / "Wife") = 0.287 / 0.498

  • P ("I am" / "Wife") = 0.576

<u>e. Given a response "My spouse," is better at getting deals, what is the probability that the response came from a husband?</u>

You want to determine: P ("Husband" / "My spouse")

Using the formula of conditional probability:

  • P("Husband" / "My spouse") = P("Husband" ∩ "My spouse")/P("My spouse")

  • P("Husband" / "My spouse") = 0.126/0.236

  • P("Husband" / "My spouse") = 0.534

<u>f. Given a response "We are equal" what is the probability that the response came from a husband? What is the probability that the response came from a wife?</u>

<u>What is the probability that the response came from a husband?</u>

  • P("Husband" / "We are equal") = P("Husband" ∩ "We are equal" / P ("We are equal")

  • P("Husband" / "We are equal") = 0.101 / 0.502 = 0.201

<u>What is the probability that the response came from a wife:</u>

  • P("Wife") / "We are equal") = P("Wife" ∩ "We are equal") / P("We are equal")

  • P("Wife") / "We are equal") = 0.101 / 0.498 = 0.208

Compare the table and equation.
iren2701 [21]
The slope formula is y2 - y1/x2 - x1. 

First plug in x = 1, x = 2, and x = 3 in to the equation y = 4x to find the first 3 points(Like the first three are shown for the table.) which are (1, 4), (2, 8), and (3, 12). 
The slope of the table would be 9 - 3/3 - 1, after subtracting you get 6/2. You would then divide 6 by 2, which gives you 3. 3 is the slope of the table.

The slope of the equation goes through the same process. 12 - 4/3 - 1, after subtracting it's 8/2, and after dividing you get 4. The slope of the equation is 4. 

This means the equation has the greater slope.
