An Internet company located in Southern California has season tickets to the Los Angeles Lakers basketball games. The company president always invites one of the seven vice presidents to attend games with him, and claims he selects the person to attend at random. One of the seven vice presidents has not been invited to attend any of the last four Lakers home games. What is the likelihood this could be due to chance

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5398

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total possible numbers vice presidents invited = 7

Required number of vice presidents invited = 1

Probability that a certain vice president is invited ;

P(a certain V. P is invited) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(a certain V. P is invited) = 1/ 7

P(1 of the V. P's hasn't been invited to attend any of the last 4 games)

Then ; it means any of the remaining (7 - 1) = 6 has been invited ;

Hence,

P(1 of the V. P's hasn't been invited to attend any of the last 4 games) = ((7-1) / 7)^4

Likelihood that it could be due to chance :

(6/7)^4 = 0.5397750

= 0.5398

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{Investment's Expected Return} = (0.20 \times -0.04) + (0.50 \times 0.04) + (0.10 \times 0.07) + (0.20 \times 0.08) \\ \\ = (-0.008)+(0.02)+(0.007) + (0.016) \\ \\ \text{= 0.035}\\ \\ = 3.50\%}[/tex]

[tex]Var (r) = [(-0.04- 0.035)^2 * 0.2] + [(0.04 - 0.035)^2 * 0.5] + [(0.07 - 0.035)^2 * -0.10] + [(0.08 - 0.035)^2 * 0.20] \\ \\ = (-5*10^{-6} )+(1.25*10^{-5})+(-1.225*10^{-4}) + (4.05 \times 10^{-4}) \\ \\= 0.001665[/tex]

A music therapist was interested in investigating whether listening to music or composing music had an influence on both anxiety levels and oxygen saturation in children who were hospitalized for asthma-related illnesses. Thirty-two children spent 20 minutes listening to classical waltzes played on a piano. On a different day, they spent 20 minutes composing their own short pieces of music using a software program.
When listening to music: For the physiological measure, the critical value for t was larger than the test statistic for the observed data. For the anxiety measure, the critical value for t was smaller than the test statistic for the observed data.
When composing music: For the physiological measure, the critical value for t was larger than the test statistic for the observed data. For the anxiety measure, the critical value for t was larger than the test statistic for the observed data.
When writing the results of the music therapist's study, which of these statements reflects the correct conclusions that should be drawn from the results and then included as part of the interpretation paragraph?Question 8 options:
a) Music therapists should make pediatric asthma patients compose music in order to increase their oxygen saturation.
b) Music therapists should make pediatric asthma patients listen to music in order to reduce their anxiety.
c) Pediatric asthma patients should listen to music in order to increase their oxygen saturation.
d) Additional information is needed to draw a proper conclusion.

Answers

Answer:

The correct conclusion is;

d) Additional information is needed to draw a proper conclussion

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

When listening to music;

Physiological measure Critical t > Test statistic Accept H₀

Anxiety measure Critical t < Test statistic Reject H₀

When composing music;

Physiological measure Critical t > Test statistic Accept H₀

Anxiety measure Critical t > Test statistic Accept H₀

When the test statistic is larger the critical 't'

Therefore, the test suggest that there is no difference between physiological and anxiety influence of composing music on pediatric asthma patients

There is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that listening to music has an influence on the anxiety of pediatric asthma patients however, the nature of the influence is not specified and more information is needed to draw a proper conclusion
