Explain your reasoning. 15. A study found that people who suffer from moderate to severe sleep apnea are at increased risk of having high blood pressure. (Sourds Journal of the American Medical Association) 16. Stress causes the body to produce higher amounts of acid, which can irritate already existing ulcers. But, stress does not cause stomach ulcers. (Source: Baylor College of Medicine) 17. A study found that there is no relationship between being around cell phones and developing cancer.

Client: 70 year old grandmother, in good physical health, but recently diagnosed with depression. Based on current research, should a client of this age seek therapy as a form of treatment? Maybe; though only about 15 percent of elderly patients show improvement." Yes; but be sure she gets individual therapy, since group therapies don't work well with the elderly. No; older adults with depression don't usually respond well to therapy. Yes; more than half of elderly patients show improvement with treatment.

A random variable \( X \) can take the values 0,1 and 2 with \( P(X=0)=1-3 \alpha / 4 \), \( P(X=1)=\alpha / 2 \) and \( P(X=2)=\alpha / 4 \) for some parameter \( \alpha>0 \). One observation is taken and we would like to estimate \( \alpha \). i. Consider the estimators \( T_{1}=X \) and \( T_{2}=2 X^{2} / 3 \). Show that they are both unbiased estimators of \( \alpha \). ii. Which of these estimators do you prefer and why?

Consider the following discrete probability distribution. X 15 22 34 40 P(X = x) 0.14 0.38 0.27 0.21 a. Is this a valid probability distribution? Yes, because the probabilities add up to 1. No, because the gaps between x values vary. b. What is the probability that the random variable X is less than 36? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Probability c. What is the probability that the random variable X is between 12 and 30? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Probability

In dodders, wild type plants are completely parasitic (CP) whereas a mutation in gene R makes them partially parasitic (PP). Another mutation in gene F causes the plant to produce large flowers. Yet another mutation in gene L decreased the size of the stigma. A scientist crossed a wild type plant to a plant that is partially parasitic with large flowers and small stigma. All the F1 plants are completely parasitic plants with small flowers and normal sized stigma. You cross an F1 plant back to the parental plant with large flowers and small stigma and you see the following progeny:
