3.5.12 Suppose there are two urns. Urn I contains 100 chips: 30 are labelled 1, 40 are labelled 2, and 30 are labelled 3. Urn 2 contains 100 chips: 20 are labelled 1, 50 are labelled 2, and 30 are labelled 3. A coin is tossed and if a head is observed, then a chip is randomly drawn from urn 1, otherwise a chip is randomly drawn from urn 2. The value Y on the chip is recorded. If an occurrence of a head on the coin is denoted by X = 1, a tail by X = 0, and X ∼ Bernoulli(3/4), then determine E(X | Y), E(Y | X), E(Y), and E(X)

Performance of stock screeners. In Exercise 2.44 (p. 71) you learned that stock screeners are automated tools used by investment companies to help clients select a portfolio of stocks to invest in. The table below lists the annualized percentage return on investment (as compared to the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index) for 13 randomly selected stock screeners provided by the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII).
9.0 -.1 -1.6 14.6 16.0 7.7 19.9 9.8 3.2 24.8 17.6 10.7 9.1
a. Find a 90% confidence interval for the average annualized percentage return on investment of all stock screeners provided by AAII. Interpret the result.
b. Recall that a negative annualized return reflects a stock
portfolio that performed worse than the S&P 500. On average, do
the AAII stock screeners perform worse or better than the S&P
500? Explain.
c. What assumption about the distribution of the annualized
percentage returns on investment is required for the inference,
part b, to be valid? Is this assumption
reasonably satisfied?

Please use the skills you learned in section 9.2 for this assignment. For this activity, you will be creating a confidence interval for the average number of hours of TV watched. Last semester, my MAT 152 online students asked the question, “How many hours of screen time do you have in a typical week?” Please use the data they collected to answer the following questions. Data: 21, 2, 28, 30, 18, 21, 25, 20, 25, 14, 21, 25, 50, 39, 46, 20, 35, 45, 37, 46

It is thought that prehistoric Indians did not take their best tools, pottery, and household items when they visited higher elevations for their summer camps. It is hypothesized that archaeological sites tend to lose their cultural identity and specific cultural affiliation as the elevation of the site increases. Let x be the elevation (in thousands of feet) for an archaeological site in the southwestern United States. Let y be the percentage of unidentified artifacts (no specific cultural affiliation) at a given elevation. Suppose that the following data were obtained for a collection of archaeological sites in New Mexico: x 5.50 6.25 6.75 7.25 7.50 y 9 38 38 50 72 What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line?
Select one:
a. 89.9%
b. 10.1%
c. 94.8%
d. 0.3%
e. 1.0%
