There is a group of kindergarten children observed who have two different shirt colors, red and blue. Red = 1 and Blue = 0. The sample size of 8 can be formed as 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0. What are the lower and upper bounds of the 95 percent confidence interval for this sample if we believe that the sample is drawn from a binomial distribution?

A researcher conducted a study to determine differences in reading ability between children who began Kindergarten at the required age of 5 years old (“on time”) compared to students who were eligible to have started school, but were held back at home for another year (“red-shirted”), by parental choice, and began Kindergarten at age 6. The research tested the Kindergarten children of both groups on reading ability in one school in the district. Respond to the following questions related to...

STAT_14_1 In the pitcher are balls of different colors. The probability of accidentally taking a red-ball out of the pitcher is p: (0<p<1). A. Remove from the pitcher, incidentally and with the possibility of return, six balls. The probability that exactly one red ball came out is four times greater than the probability that no red balls came out at all. 1. Find the p value. 2. What is the probability that only the first, third, and fifth balls will...

Assume you are studying some species of flower that comes in three different colors: red, pink, and white. You know that color is determined by a single locus with two alleles with incomplete dominance. You count 124 red flowers, 62 pink flowers, and 30 white flowers. What are the allele frequencies and is the population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Calculate the χ2 test statistic and p-value.
