A glazier buys his glass from four different manufacturers - Clearglass (10%), Strongpane (25%), Mirrorglass (30%) and Reflection (35%). In the past, the glazier has found that 1% of Clearglass' product is cracked, 1.5% of Strongpane's product is cracked, and 2% of Mirrorglass' and Reflection's products are cracked. The glazier removes the protective covering from a sheet of glass without looking at the manufacturer's name - in other words, it's a random choice. He finds the glass is cracked. What is the probability it was made by Mirrorglass?

In the city of AZ, there are two supermarkets, X-Mart and Y-Mart. It is assumed that every shopper makes a purchase once a week at one of these supermarkets (not both).In a study, 100 samples of shoppers were taken over 10 weeks. From the study, it is known that if a shopper goes to X-Mart in one week, 85 people will continue to shop at X-Mart in the following week, and if a shopper goes to Y-Mart in one week, 70 people will continue to shop at Y-Mart in the following week.Create a transition probability table and matrix for this scenario, and then If in the first week Ivankov buys from X-Mart, what is the probability that Terry will buy from X-Mart in the third and fourth weeks?
Medical researchers performed a comparison of two drugs, clopidogrel and ticagrelor, which are designed to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in coronary patients. A total of 6665 patients were given clopidogrel, and 6740 were given ticagrelor. Of the clopidogrel patients, 651 suffered a heart attack or stroke within one year, and of the ticagrelor patients, 573 suffered a heart attack or stroke. Can you conclude that the proportion of patients suffering a heart attack or stroke is less for ticagrelor? Let p1 denote the proportion of patients suffering a heart attack or stroke with clopidogrel and p2 denote the proportion of patients suffering a heart attack or stroke with ticagrelor. Use the =α0.01 level of significance and the P -value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. please state p method clearly!
Medical researchers performed a comparison of two drugs, clopidogrel and ticagrelor, which are designed to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in coronary patients.

In search of a mosquito repellent that is safer than the ones that are currently on the market, scientists have developed a new compound that is rated as less toxic than the current compound, thus making a repellent that contains this new compound safer for human use. Scientists also believe that a repellent containing the new compound will be more effective than the ones that contain the current compound. To test the effectiveness of the new compound versus that of the current compound, scientists have randomly selected 100 people from a state. Up to 100 bins, with an equal number of mosquitoes in each bin, are available for use in the study. After a compound is applied to a participant’s forearm, the participant will insert his or her forearm into a bin for 1 minute, and the number of mosquito bites on the arm at the end of that time will be determined. a. Suppose this study is to be conducted using a completely randomized design. Describe a a.randomization process and identify an…
The television show Lett3rs has been successful for many years. That show recently had a share of 19, which means, that among the TV sets in use, 19% were tuned to Lett3rs. An advertiser wants to verify that 19% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 10 households have TV sets in use at the time of a Lett3rs broadcast. If at most one household is tuned to Lett3rs, does it appear that the 19% share value is wrong? (Hint: Is the occurrence of at most one household tuned to Lett3rs unusual?) A. no, it is not wrongB. yes, it is wrong
A study conducted by researchers was designed "to determine if application of duct tape is as effective as cryotherapy in the treatment of common warts." The researchers randomly divided 6969 patients into two groups. The 3535 patients in group 1 had their warts treated by applying duct tape. The 3434 patients in group 2 had their warts treated by cryotherapy. Once the treatments were complete, it was determined that 6969% of the patients in group 1 and 8585% of the patients in group 2 had complete resolution of their warts. The researchers concluded that cryotherapycryotherapy is significantly more effective in treating warts than duct tapeduct tape.

Globally, 35% of all ridged brittleshell tortoises have spots on their shells. A herpetologist in Citition collects a sample of 38 ridged brittlesell tortoises and finds that 16 of them have spots on their shells. The herpetologist would like to test the claim that the proportion of ridged brittleshell tortoises in Cititon with spots on their shells is greater than 35%. The herpetologist ends up rejecting the null hypothesis. If the actual proportion of ridged brittleshell tortoises in Cititon with spots on their shells is 41%, then what type of error, if any, has occurred? In the problem above, what is the test statistic?
Since 13 out of 20 samples have more than 7 adults who take a daily multivitamin, there is evidence to suggest that the proportion of adults who take a multivitamin is more than 58%. Since 13 out of 20 samples have more than 7 adults who take a daily multivitamin, there is NOT evidence to suggest that the proportion of adults who take a multivitamin is more than 58%. Since 1 sample has 7 adults who take a daily multivitamin, there is evidence to suggest that the proportion of adults who take a multivitamin is more than 58%. Since 1 sample has 7 adults who take a daily multivitamin, there is NOT evidence to suggest that the proportion of adults who take a multivitamin is more than 58%. Which one of four options
Sarah believes that completely cutting caffeine out of a person’s diet will allow him or her more restful sleep at night. In fact, she believes that, on average, adults will have more than two additional nights of restful sleep in a four-week period after removing caffeine from their diets. She randomly selects 8 adults to help her test this theory. Each person is asked to consume two caffeinated beverages per day for 28 days, and then cut back to no caffeinated beverages for the following 28 days. During each period, the participants record the numbers of nights of restful sleep that they had. The following table gives the results of the study. Test Sarah’s claim at the 0.02 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let the period before removing caffeine be Population 1 and let the period after removing caffeine be Population 2. Numbers of Nights of Restful Sleep in a Four-Week Period With Caffeine 18 24 22…
