Textbook Question
Chapter 5.4, Problem 5.51ACI
Apps not working on smartphone. In a survey titled U.S. Smartphone Use in 2015, 90% of smartphone users indicated that they have had a problem with a downloaded application (app) on their cell phone not working correctly. Assume this percentage applies to all smartphone users in the United States. In a random sample of 75 smartphone users, suppose that fewer than 60 indicate that they have had a problem with an app on their cell phone not working correctly. What inference can you make about the true proportion of smartphone users who have a problem with apps not working on their cell phone? p < .90; normal approx. not valid

- Flexible Work Hours In a recent survey, people were asked whether they would prefer to work flexible hours----even when it meant slower career advancement----so they could spend more time with their families. The figure shows the results of the survey. What is the probability that three people chosen at random would prefer flexible work hours?arrow_forwardPopulation Genetics In the study of population genetics, an important measure of inbreeding is the proportion of homozygous genotypesthat is, instances in which the two alleles carried at a particular site on an individuals chromosomes are both the same. For population in which blood-related individual mate, them is a higher than expected frequency of homozygous individuals. Examples of such populations include endangered or rare species, selectively bred breeds, and isolated populations. in general. the frequency of homozygous children from mating of blood-related parents is greater than that for children from unrelated parents Measured over a large number of generations, the proportion of heterozygous genotypesthat is, nonhomozygous genotypeschanges by a constant factor 1 from generation to generation. The factor 1 is a number between 0 and 1. If 1=0.75, for example then the proportion of heterozygous individuals in the population decreases by 25 in each generation In this case, after 10 generations, the proportion of heterozygous individuals in the population decreases by 94.37, since 0.7510=0.0563, or 5.63. In other words, 94.37 of the population is homozygous. For specific types of matings, the proportion of heterozygous genotypes can be related to that of previous generations and is found from an equation. For mating between siblings 1 can be determined as the largest value of for which 2=12+14. This equation comes from carefully accounting for the genotypes for the present generation the 2 term in terms of those previous two generations represented by for the parents generation and by the constant term of the grandparents generation. a Find both solutions to the quadratic equation above and identify which is 1 use a horizontal span of 1 to 1 in this exercise and the following exercise. b After 5 generations, what proportion of the population will be homozygous? c After 20 generations, what proportion of the population will be homozygous?arrow_forwardSick leave probability that a given worker at Dyno Nutrition Will call in sick on a Monday is 004.
