Question

Sofia made the following table where she categorized countries by their region and by average business startup costs, as a percentage of the per capita gross national income (GNI) for a certain year. She decided that high meant greater than or equal to 8% but less than 70% of the GNI and that very high meant greater than or equal to 70% of the GNI. Region Very high High Low Total East Asia & Pacific 3 13 8 24 Europe & Central Asia 0 8 17 25 Latin America & Caribbean 4 23 5 32 Middle East & North Africa 4 9 7 20 OECD 0 5 27 32 South Asia 0 7 1 8 Sub-Saharan Africa 21 22 4 47 Total 32 87 69 188 Find the probability that Sofia categorized the country's business startup costs as very high, given that the country is in the Sub-Saharan African region.

A study reports that 36% of companies in Country A have three or more female board directors. Suppose you select a random sample of 100 respondents. Complete parts (a) through (c) below: a. What is the probability that the sample will have between 34% and 39% of companies in Country A that have three or more female board directors? The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. The probability is 80% that the sample percentage of Country A companies having three or more female board directors will be contained within what symmetrical limits of the population percentage? The probability is 80% that the sample percentage will be contained above % and below %. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) c. The probability is 68% that the sample percentage of Country A companies having three or more female board directors will be contained within what symmetrical limits of the population percentage? The probability is 68% that the sample percentage will be contained above % and below %. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

Highest Level of Education and Household Income. The U.S. Census Bureau serves as the leading source of quantitative data about the nation's people and economy. The following crosstabulation shows the number of households $1,000 \mathrm{~s}$ and the household income by the highest level of education for the head of household (U.S. Census Bureau website). Only households in which the head has a high school diploma or more are included. a. Develop a joint probability table. b. What is the probability of the head of one of these households having a master's degree or more education? c. What is the probability of a household headed by someone with a high school diploma earning $\$ 100,000$ or more? d. What is the probability of one of these households having an income below $\$ 25,000 ?$ e. What is the probability of a household headed by someone with a bachelor's degree earning less than $\$ 25,000 ?$ f. Is household income independent of educational level?
