Early estimations pegged the mortality rate for corona virus in certain populations as high as 10%. There are a lot of factors to consider when trying to estimate this particular parameter. One very important factor to remember is that as test kits become more readily available, we will be testing those who don't have severe symptoms (and thus most likely showing as a case but most likely surviving). As of the other day, out of 369,000 people who were determined to have the virus, 11,000 died. Based on that estimation, can we conclude that the absolute mortality rate has decreased? Please calculate the test statistic and pvalue. What can be concluded? Support your answer. Please calculate the 95% confidence interval Interpret the interval. What can be concluded? Support your answer.

In a recent survey of 157 WMU graduates, 117 students said that parking was too limited on campus. What is the estimate of the population proportion? What is the standard error of this estimate? Question 7 options: 1) Estimate of proportion: 0.745, Standard error: 0.0348. 2) Estimate of proportion: 0.255, Standard error: 0.0028. 3) Estimate of proportion: 0.745, Standard error: 0.0028. 4) The true population proportion is needed to calculate this. 5) Estimate of proportion: 0.255, Standard error: 0.0348.
Your class results should suggest that even though sample values vary depending on which sample you happen to pick, there seems to be a pattern to this variation. To investigate this pattern more thoroughly, however, you need more samples. Because it is time-consuming (and possibly fattening) to literally sample candies, you will use technology to simulate the sampling process. To perform these simulations, you need to assume that you know the actual value of the parameter. Let us suppose that 45% of the population of Reese's Pieces candies is orange (T = 0.45) and consider a simple random sample of size n= 75 from this. The CLT predicts the sampling distribution will have a mean = (Round to three decimal places)

. Students may be classified as having a math dysfunction—and not have to take statistics—if they score below the 25th percentile on a diagnostic test. The m of the test is 75 and sX 10. Approximately what raw score is the cutoff score needed to avoid taking statistics?
A newspaper infographic titled "Baby's First Photo Reveal" summarized data from a survey of 1,000 mothers with children under the age of 2. The infographic stated that 84% of moms post new baby photos from the delivery room. This information could be used to provide an estimate of the proportion of new mothers who post pictures on social media from the delivery room. Assume that the sample is representative of the population of mothers with children under the age of 2 years. Use the five-step process for estimation problems (EMC3) to construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of mothers of children under the age of 2 years who post pictures of their new baby on social media from the delivery room. (Use a table or SALT. Round your answers to three decimal places.)
From a statistical perspective, accurate models can be built in data mining with as few as several hundred records. Choose one answer. 1. The statement is contradictory to the idea of data mining sifting through large amounts of data to gain useful information and therefore false. 2. The statement is true because what we need to build a model is 'good' representation of the population, which we can often get with a few hundred records. 3. The statement is false because use of a small number of records would lead to overfitting. 4. The statement is false because several hundred records are very unlikely to lead to an accurate model.
