A certain group of symptom-free women between the ages of 40 and 50 are randomly selected to participate in mammography screening. The incidence rate of breast cancer among such women is 0.8%. The false negative rate for the mammogram is 10%. The false positive rate is 7%. If a the mammogram results for a particular woman are positive (indicating that she has breast cancer), what is the probability that she actually has breast cancer?

You work for a supermarket that is considering the best way to promote sales of its store-brand canned vegetables. Store managers believe allocating additional shelf space to the store-brand canned vegetables would create additional sales. Company executives, on the other hand, believe increasing advertising expenditures would be a more effective strategy to expand sales. Complete a regression analysis to help answer this question (use the CANVEG Excel file posted on Canvas). NOTE: consider only a simple linear model, a multiple linear regression model, or an interaction model

1.Write out the equation that represents the hypothesized population regression equation for your model

2.Explain whether a positive or negative relationship is hypothesized

3.Use the “Microsoft Excel Data Analysis Toolpak” to determine the regression coefficients for the relationship and write out the final estimated regression equation. You must include the MS Excel output.

4.Give a practical interpretation of the slope(s) of the least squares line

5.Over what range of x-values is the interpretation meaningful?

6.Does the estimated slope support the relationship between the two variables you initially hypothesized (in parts a and b)? Explain.

7.Evaluate the overall utility of the model including any relevant hypothesis tests (be sure to fully write all 6-steps of any hypothesis test conducted, you can specify the rejection region in words it is not necessary to include a graph though you can if you prefer to).

8.Include any hypothesis tests of individual coefficients that are appropriate given your choice of model specification and results.

9.Given your results, would you recommend the company pursue expanding shelf space or increase advertising expenditures.

Two pea plants are crossed. One is homozygous for white flowers and the other is heterozygous for purple flowers. Both are heterozygous for being tall plants. In pea plants, tall is dominant to short, and purple flowers are dominant to white.

Fill out the table below for the probability of each possible phenotype. Report probability as a decimal rounded to four places (e.g. 0.1250, not 1/8 or 12.5%).

In a population of 150 pea plants, there are 50 tall-purple plants, 18 short-purple plants, 62 tall-white plants, and 20 short-white plants. In order to test if the two traits are experiencing independent assortment researchers would perform a chi squared test. The (null/alternative) ____________ hypothesis states that the two genes are independently assorted while the (null/alternative) ___________ hypothesis states the two genes are dependent.

What is your calculated Chi Squared statistic? ____________

When performing a contingency table, do not round your expected values!!

Report your calculated X² rounded to four decimal places

What is the corresponding P value? ____________

Use the formula =1-(CHISQ.DIST(X²,df,TRUE)) to convert calculated X^{2 _{into a P value}}

Report your answer rounded to 4 decimal places

Do you fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis? __________

As a result of this statistical analysis, it is possible to conclude that pea plant height and pea plant blossom color (are or are not) ___________ linked traits.

1. Design a function called middle_value, that takes 3 integers, and returns the integer with the middle value. If there is a tie, any of the possible middle values can be returned. Example: middle_value(1, 2, 8) -> 2 middle_value(9, 7, 7) -> 7 middle_value(3, 3, 3) -> 3

2. Design a function called combine_strings that takes two phrases and appends the longer string onto the back of the shorter one with no space between the two phrases joined. Example: If the phrases are “thought” and “after” the function should return “afterthought”, or “sea” and “food” would return “seafood”.

3. Design a function called get_letter_at that takes a phrase and a number and returns the letter at the phrase at the given index (note that 0 would return the first letter in the phrase). If the number is too large, then just return an empty string: “ ”.
   Examples:

   get_letter_at("Anthony", 0) -> "A" get_letter_at("Anthony", 4) -> "o" get_letter_at("Anthony", 7) -> " "

4. Design a function called brightness_modifier that takes an integer value that is either 0, 1, 2, or 3 representing the brightness level of a smartphone (0 means screen is off, up to 3 which means full brightness). The function should return a decimal number representing the modifier that the brightness level will affect the lifetime of battery of the device. For example:

   • - 0 brightness does not affect the battery life at all (returns 1.0)

   • - 1 brightness returns a 0.9 (the battery will last 90% of maximum battery lifetime)

   • - 2 brightness returns a .75 (the battery lasts 75% of maximum battery lifetime)

   • - 3 brightness returns a .5 (the battery only last 50% of maximum lifetime)

5. Design a function called hours_remaining that takes two integers and a boolean as parameters and returns the total hours of battery life left. The parameters represent the percentage of battery life left, the brightness (0, 1, 2, 3) and whether the device is currently streaming video. This function MUST call and use the brightness_modifier function you designed for exercise 4.

   The hours left is calculated by the following formula:

   1. The amount of battery life left is calculated by the maximum battery life (15 hours – see the

      CONSTANT defined at the top of the file) multiplied by percentage of battery left.

   2. Applying the brightness_modifier to the total amount of battery life left.

   3. If the phone is currently streaming video, the hours remaining is cut in half.

For example, given hours_remaining(80, 2, true) produces:
(Note the FULL_BATTERY_LIFE = 15 constant defined at the top of the file) 15*80% = 12 hours of regular battery remaining.
12 hours remaining at 2 brightness level = 12*.75 modifier = 9 hours
9 hours of streaming video = 9*0.5 = 4.5 actual hours remaining

tests = 0
passed = 0

FULL_BATTERY_LIFE = 15

Test the given claim. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population. Use either the​ P-value method or the traditional method of testing hypotheses.

Company A uses a new production method to manufacture aircraft altimeters. A simple random sample of new altimeters resulted in errors listed below. Use a 0.05 level of significance to test the claim that the new production method has errors with a standard deviation greater than 32.2​ ft, which was the standard deviation for the old production method. If it appears that the standard deviation is​ greater, does the new production method appear to be better or worse than the old​ method? Should the company take any​ action?
