Answer:

(E) None of these above are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Married = 74% or 0.74

College graduates = 42% or 0.42

pr(married | college graduates) = 0.56

(A) These events are pairwise disjoint. This is false. Pairwise disjoint are also known as mutually exclusive events. Here we can see that both events are occurring at same time.

(B) These events are independent events. This is also false.

(C) These events are both independent and pairwise disjoint. False

(D) A worker is either married or a college graduate always. False

Here Probability(A or B) shall be 1

= Pr(A) + Pr(B) - Pr( A and B) = 0.74 + 0.42 - 0.56 * 0.42 = 0.9248

This is not equal to 1.

(E) None of these above are true. This is true.

The answer for the completion exercise shown above is the second option (option b), which is:

 b. critical value.

 Therefore, you have that the text is: "<span>A critical value is a numerical quantity computed from the data of a sample..."
</span>
 This numeral quantity is used in statitics. Then, if the absolute value is greater that the quantity defined before, the null hypothesis must be rejected.

We are told that the data is representative of the two populations (U.S. males aged 20-29 years and U.S. males aged 75+ years),
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The data provide strong evidence that young men weigh more on average than old men in the U.S

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The null hypothesis ; H0 : μ1 = μ2

The alternative hypothesis ; H1 : μ1 > μ2

T score = 5.3 ; Pvalue = < 0.0001

The decision region :

If Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

If Pvalue > α ; We fail to reject the Null

When the α - level isn't stated, we usually assume a α - level of 5%

However, even at lower alpha level of 1% = 0.01 ;

The Pvalue < α

Hence, we can conclude that there is significant evidence that there is difference in the mean weight of young men and old men in the U.S

A certain weightlifter is prone to back injury. He finds that he has a 20% chance of hurting his back if he uses the proper form
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Probability weightlifter hurts his back = 0.3875 i.e 38.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of using right body form = 75%

Probability of using bad body form : 1 - Prob (right body form) = 1 - 75% = 25%  

Probability of getting injured if right body form = 20%

Probability of getting injured if using bad body form = 95%

  • Probability of getting injury :

Prob (Right body form & injury) or Prob (wrong body firm & injury)

(0.75) (0.20) + (0.25) (0.95)

0.15 + 0.2375

= 0.3875 i.e 38.75%
