The process of random sampling guarantees that the sample selected will be representative of the population. Is this statement true? Discuss. AND In 1 Sentence describe the most valuable thing you learned this week about Introduction to Statistics and Description Statistics and Probability and Standardized Scores.  Must use reference below Witte, R. S., & Witte, J. S. (2017). Statistics (11 ed.). Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Discuss the pros and cons associated with the use of standard scores. Are they useful? Can you think of any situations in which they would not be helpful?    Used Cited Sources : APA FORMAT  References: 3 sources   Caffo, B.

An understanding of statistics is necessary in many situations in life or in a work setting.  The use of statistics can help provide answers to many questions. Post a question you think that statistics may help you answer and in at least 200 words explain why statistics can help provide an accurate answer.  After your posting, write a reply to one of your classmates in at least 100 words.  Do you agree that statistics are necessary to answer their questions?  Is their question one that you would also like to have an answer to?  Why or why not?

8.) Suppose that we have an urn with red and green balls with an X or Y on them (i.e. four different kinds of balls, namely, Red – X ,Red – Y , Green – X , Green – Y ). Suppose that we know the following:P ( Red ) = .2P ( Red and X ) = .1P ( X ) = .3Find:A.) P ( Green )B.) P ( Red or X )C.) P ( Red|X )D.) P ( X|Red )E.) Are events Red and X independent?F.) Why or why not? If they are not independent, change one of the probabilities given to make them independent.10.) Suppose the probability of being farsighted is .1. Suppose also that the probability of a farsighted person being dyslexic is .05 and the probability of a person who is not farsighted being dyslexic is .025 (1/2 as likely). What is the probability that a person with dyslexia is farsighted?11.) In baseball, suppose we are told that the probability of scoring a run on a double is .54. That is, given a play has generated a double, 54% of the time at least one run will score. However, we want to know how often when a run scores, it was generated by a double. This is not the same question. Do we see the difference? We are told that the probability of runs scoring on plays that are not doubles is .11 and the probability of hitting a double is 18%.13.) One cab company in our city is named “Blue Cab Co.” And they have had some complaints about the driving behavior of their employees. But we know that all cab companies have some drivers who are a bit reckless. We know that the probability of getting a reckless driver if we are in a Blue Cab car is .25, but what we want to know is if we have a reckless driver, how likely is it a Blue Cab that we are in? Do we see the difference? We know the probability of getting a reckless driver if we are not in a Blue Cab car is .15, and we know the probability of getting a Blue Cab car is .4. So, what is the probability of being in a Blue Cab car if we have a reckless driver?3.) For each of the following situations, specify the null and alternative hypotheses:A.) The average respiration rate per minute is 8. Do smokers have an average rate different from 8?B.) The average score on the Beck Depression Inventory is 12. Does the average depression score of mothers with young children deviate from the population mean?C.) The average miles per gallon (mpg) of cars used in the United States is 20. Is the observed mpg of a sample of cars used in Japan different?4.) When conducting an inferential test, when should we use the t distribution?5.) `What if a researcher conducting a project using a single?sample design has access to both the population and the sample standard deviation, which test should they use?7.) What type of error corresponds to a “false positive?”8.) What type of error corresponds to a “false negative?”11.) For which type of error can we set the precise risk rate, and which one can we only increase or decrease the chance of making?16.) Among trained typists, suppose it is known that the average typing speed using a standard keyboard is 60 words per minute (wpm), with a standard deviation of 5 wpm. The manufacturer of an ergonomically designed keyboard claims their device will improve typing speed. A random sample of 50 typists is tested on the ergonomically designed keyboard, and the sample mean wpm is 65. Test the hypothesis that using the new device affects typing speed. Set alpha at .05.A.)Should we use the z distribution or t distribution? Why?B.) State H 0 and H 1 .C.) What are the critical values?D.) What is the obtained statistic?E.) Reject the null hypothesis?F.) What type of decision error might have been made?G.) Is there sufficient evidence to support the manufacturer’s claim?H.) If so, what is the effect size?17.) On one standardized measure of IQ, ? =?100 and ? =?15. Imagine we want to test the hypothesis that children of parents with college degrees have an average IQ that is greater than the national average. A sample of 100 students who have college?educated parents is randomly selected, and the mean is 110 with a standard deviation of 12. Conduct a test of the null hypothesis and set alpha at .05.A.) Should we use the z distribution or t distribution? Why?B.) State H 0 and H 1 .C.) What are the critical values?D.) What is the obtained statistic?E.)Reject the null hypothesis?F.) What type of decision error might have been made?G.) Interpret the finding.H.) If the null is rejected, what is the effect size?20.) An industrial/organizational psychologist believes that people who work at home experience greater job satisfaction. Imagine that a job satisfaction rating scale exists. The publishers of this scale claim the population is normally distributed with a mean of 50. The psychologist samples 20 people who work at home finding M =?63 and s =?17.

Hello I just need a 2 page paper about George Boole the mathematician. My professor is not very strict so just a normal paper about the history of George Boole will do.

When grading math papers, the teacher often has to treat the student’s solutions like a puzzle that needs to be unravelled. You have no clue what they are doing or why. Students rarely write down numbers or scratch work at random, there is some kind of logic to it. Your job as the teacher is to figure out what that logic is, pinpoint the errors, and then come up with a way to fix it. View the following lecture to learn about the process of error analysis which explains what it is, how to use it and then presents many examples of common student errors.

Z-scores A normal distribution of scores has a standard deviation of ? =10; and a ? = 70. Find the z-scores corresponding to each of the following values: a) A score that is 20 points above the mean. (Hint: what score is 20 points above the mean of ? = 70?) b) A score that is 10 points below the mean. c) A score of x = 50. d) A score of x = 35.

1. Why do we want our standard deviation to be low for our sample? 2. There are tons of reasons why our sample’s time completing their rental task differed from the website’s claim. There are other reasons for why the differences occur. All out test tells us is that the sample and population differ. As a Pause Problem, tell me two more! 3. Here is a three part question. First, write out in words a research hypothesis for this statement: The Geography Department is interested in finding out if the average GPA of this year’s graduating seniors is comparable to the average GPA of graduating seniors over the last 40 years. Second, write the formula of the null hypothesis for the above research problem. Finally, write the formula of a directional or non-directional research hypothesis for the above research problem.
