Jose visits campus every Thursday evening. However, some days the parking garage is full, often due to college events. There are academic events on 35% of evenings, sporting events on 20% of evenings, and no events on 45% of evenings. When there is an academic event, the garage fills up about 25% of the time, and it fills up 70% of evenings with sporting events. On evenings when there are no events, it only fills up about 5% of the time. If Jose comes to campus and finds the garage full, what is the probability that there is a sporting event?
A. Draw a tree diagram (marginal probabilities in the primary branch and conditional probabilities in the secondary branches).
B. What is the probability that there is a sporting event when Jose finds the garage full?
AJ’s sleep pattern had been fluctuating due to stress and diet, so he started to keep a diary of how many hours he slept each night. On the 4th night after he started the diary, AJ slept 9.4 hours, which was the most sleep he got any night. Gradually, he got less sleep each successive night until, on the 18th night after he started the diary, AJ slept 6.2 hours, which was the least sleep he got any night. After keeping his diary for 6 months, he realized that the number of hours he got each night followed a sinusoidal curve. Let t be the number of nights since he started his diary, and s be how many hours he slept that night. It may be helpful to draw a crude sketch of the sleep time function and label the known t − and s − values on it. POSITIVE or NEGATIVE SIN or COS Maximum s − value = Minimum s − value = ______________ ______________ Middle s − value = ______________ = D Amplitude = ______________ = A ⇒ B = ______________ Given the crude sketch of the height function, the…
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 88 adults to help her test this theory. Each person is asked to consume two caffeinated beverages per day for 2828 days, and then cut back to no caffeinated beverages for the following 2828 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 0.020.02 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.

- If during the following year it is predicted that each comedy skit will generate 30 thousand and each musical number 20 thousand, find the maximum income for the year. A television program director must schedule comedy skits and musical numbers for prime-time variety shows. Each comedy skit requires 2 hours of rehearsal time, costs 3000, and brings in 20,000 from the shows sponsors. Each musical number requires 1 hour of rehearsal time, costs 6000, and generates 12,000. If 250 hours are available for rehearsal and 600,000 is budgeted for comedy and music, how many segments of each type should be produced to maximize income? Find the maximum income.arrow_forwardSolve Exercise 14 if a 25 solution of the same mixture is added instead of pure alcohol.arrow_forwardOHaganBooks.com has two principal competitors: JungleBooks.com and FarmerBooks.com.

- A recent drug survey showed an increase in the use of drugs and alcohol among local high school seniors as compared to the national percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local seniors and 100 national seniors is conducted to see if the proportion of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 60 national seniors reported using them.arrow_forwardA health researcher studying child birth is interested in the possible effect that smoking by the mother during pregnancy has on the baby's birth weight. To investigate, the researcher conducts an observational study by reviewing 400 records of women in their twenties who have recently given birth for the first time. For each record, he notes whether or not the woman smoked during pregnancy and the baby's birth weight, in addition to the woman's education level, and age. From the data, the researcher creates two groups: women in their twenties who smoked during pregnancy and women in their twenties who did not smoke during pregnancy. Then he compares the average birth weight between the two groups. (a)Why might the researcher have chosen to perform an observational study (by gathering information from past records) and not a randomized experiment (by assigning pregnant women to either the smoking or nonsmoking group at random)?

It offers its new tenants an 18-month lease, which is renewed on a month-to-month basis if the tenant chooses to stay longer than 18 months. The leasing office reports that The Centurion signs about 80 leases with new tenants in an average year, and that 60% of tenants who move in end up staying in the building longer than 18 months. On average, the building is 90% occupied. You may assume that a negligible number of tenants break their lease in the first 18 months.

- The market research department at a manufacturing plant determines that 30% of the people who purchase the plant's product during any month will not purchase it the next month. On the other hand, 40% of the people who do no purchase the product during any month will purchase it the next month. In a population of 1000 people, 200 people purchased the product this month. How many will purchase the product the next month and in 2 months.arrow_forwardSuppose that every year, only 10% of the fish in a lake have surviving offspring. If there were 100 fish in the lake last year, there would now be 110 fish. If there were 1000 fish in the lake last year, there would now be 1100 fish. Absent any inhibiting factors, populations of people and animals tend to grow by a percent of the existing population each year. Suppose our lake began with 1000 fish, and 10% of the fish have surviving offspring each year. Since we start with 1000 fish, Po 1000. How do we calculate P₁? The new population will be the old population, plus an additional 10%. Symbolically: = P1 = Po + 0.10Po Notice this could be condensed to a shorter form by factoring: P₁= Po+0.10Po = 1Po + 0.10Po= (1+0.10)Po= 1.10Po While 10% is the growth rate, 1.10 is the growth multiplier. Notice that 1.10 can be thought of as "the original 100% plus an additional 10%" For our fish population, P₁ = 1.10(1000) = 1100 We could then calculate the population in later years.

Maxwell wanted to know how many farmers were certified organic in 2011.He calculated it to be 6160 farms,but when he thought about it realized his answer does not make sense .
