Forty-three percent of all registered voters in a particular state prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. Among Latino registered voters in the state, 66% prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. 37.5% of all citizens in the state are Latino.In this problem, define variables as the following.•   C = Registered voters preferring life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder.•   L = Latino citizensSuppose that one registered voter is randomly selected.Find P(L AND C ). (Round your answer to four decimal places.)P(L AND C ) =

Recall the estimate by the Pew Research Center that 62% of U.S. adults favor the death penalty for murder. The same report gave a much lower estimate for the percentage of U.S. college graduates supporting the death penalty in cases of murder. According to census data from 2000, roughly 28% of U.S. adults have a college degree.What is the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult has a college degree and favors the death penalty?Let A be the event that a U.S. adult has a college degree. Let B be the event that this person supports the death penalty. We want to find P(A and B).Which answer is correct, Answer 1 or 2?Answer 1: P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) = 0.62(0.28) = 0.1736 We can use the Multiplication Rule for Independent Events because the events are independent. Having a college degree does not determine a person’s views on the death penalty.Answer 2: We do not have enough information to answer the question. We cannot use the Multiplication Rule for Independent Events because these events are dependent. Having a college degree affects the likelihood that a person supports the death penalty.

A Gallup Poll in May 2004 estimated that roughly 70% of U.S. adults are in favor of the death penalty for a person convicted of murder. A random sample of 750 U.S. adults is chosen. Let X be the number of adults (out of 750) who favor the death penalty.The distribution of X is binomial. What are the values of n and p?

A study was done of all homicide convictions in the State of Florida between 1976 and 1980 in order to examine if the application of the death sentence was racially biased. The data showed that a larger percentage of white suspects (11.2%) were sentenced to death than black suspects (8.5%). However, if the race of the victim was included in the analysis, the study found that for white victims, a larger percentage of black suspects (19.3%) were sentenced to death than white suspects (12.3%).Which of the following is correct? Check all that apply. “Race of the suspect” is a lurking variable in this situation. “Race of the victim” is a lurking variable in this situation. This is an example of Simpson’s paradox. This is an example of a negative association.

In a certain city, 60% of the registered voters are congress supporters and the rest are BJP supporters. In an assembly election, if 75% of the registered congress supporters and 20% of the registered BJP supporters are expected to vote for candidate A, what percent of the registered voters are expected to vote for candidate A?
