To find:
The result produced from the given expressions and verify them using MATLAB.
Answer to Problem 1.3P
Solution:
The required result is verified.
Explanation of Solution
The given expressions are,
3==5+2
'b'<'a'+1
10>5+2
(10>5)+2
'c'=='d'-1&&2<4
'c'=='d'-1||2>4
xor('c'=='d'-1, 2>4)
xor('c'=='d'-1, 2<4)
10>5>2
There are only two possibilities that can be concluded from the expression. If the expression is true, then it will have the logical value
Consider the value of a is
The obtained output is false. Hence, it will have the logical value
The given expression “10>5+2” is false. Hence, the output will be
In the expression “(10>5)+2”, first “(10>5)” will be evaluated. This expression is true. Hence, it will have the logical value
Consider the value of c is
In this expression, the order of preference is “
Consider the value of c is
In this expression, the order of preference is “
Consider the value of c is
In this expression, the order of preference is “
Consider the value of c is
In this expression, the order of preference is “
In the expression “10>5>2”, first “(10>5)” will be evaluated. This expression is true. Hence, it will have the logical value
MATLAB Code:
3==5+2
'b'<'a'+1
10>5+2
(10>5)+2
'c'=='d'-1&&2<4
'c'=='d'-1||2>4
xor('c'=='d'-1, 2>4)
xor('c'=='d'-1, 2<4)
10>5>2
Save the MATLAB script with name, chapter1_54793_1_3P.m in the current folder. Execute the script by typing the script name at the command window to generate output.
Result:
Therefore, the required variable is created.

- Suppose that we have data y = (1,...,n). Each data point y; is assumed to be generated by a distribution with the following probability density function: P(yi | n)=3nye, y; ≥0. The unknown parameter is >0. (a) Write down the likelihood for n given y, and find an expression for the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) of n. (b) A Gamma(a, 3) distribution is chosen as the prior distribution for 7, where a > 0 and > 0 are known. Show that the posterior distribution of n, denoted p(n | A), is also a gamma distribution with updated parameters that you should determine.arrow_forwardDo the data provide compelling evidence (at α=0.05) for concluding that true average strength for the 1078 grade exceeds that for the 1064 grade? Show all your work. Estimate the difference between true average strengths for the two grades with a 95% confidence interval for the previous problem.arrow_forwardUse Minitab and the GPA data (GPAData.xlsx) to answer the following. a) (15 points) Is there a mean difference in High School GPA and a person's GPA following their first year of college? State the relevant hypotheses and provide the p-value from the output. Include a decision and interpretation at a 10% level of significance. b) (5 points) Is the assumption of normality satisfied? Include any plots you make to check the normality assumption and comments on your observations.arrow_forward
- A researcher wants to perform a hypothesis test to see if the mean salary of the faculty in private and public institutions are different. Random samples of 36 faculty from private and public institutions were selected. Salaries of the selected faculty from private and public institutions are provided to you in facultysalary.csv file. 1. Make side-by-side boxplots of the salaries for faculty in private and public institutions (In MINITAB, go to Graphs-- >Boxplot-->and explore the available options to see how to make a side-by-side boxplot of the data). 2. Comment on your observations from the side-by-side boxplot made in part 1. 3. Calculate the descriptive statistics: mean, standard deviation for the two samples and attach the MINITAB output. 4. When carrying out a hypothesis test to achieve the aforementioned goal, would you recommend using pooled variance approach or unpooled variance approach? Provide reasoning for your choice. 5. Regardless what you recommend in part 4, carry out…arrow_forwardDave Hughes owns a local restaurant. He wonders if a redesign of the menu will increase, on average, the amount customers spend when visiting his establishment. For the following scenario, pick a statistical method we discussed regarding comparing two groups that would be appropriate for analyzing the problem. a) Hughes records the mean sales the week before the change and the week after the change and then wonders whether the difference is statistically significant. [ Select ] b) Hughes randomly samples 100 people and shows both menus to each person, asking them to rate each menu from 0 (very poor) to 20 (excellent) and then wonders whether the difference is statistically significant. [ Select ] c) Hughes randomly samples 100 people and randomly separates them into two groups of 50. He asks those in group 1 to give a rating of ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ to the old menu and those in group 2 to give a rating of ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ to the new menu. He then computes the proportion of…arrow_forwardPlease don't answer of this statistics and probability question without knowledge.arrow_forward
