In a given county, records show that of the registered voters, 45% are Democrats, 40% are Republicans, and 15% are Independents. In an election, 70% of the Democrats, 30% of the Republicans, and 90% of the Independents voted in favor of a parks and recreation bond proposal. If a registered voter chosen at random is found to have voted in favor of the bond, what is the probability that the voter is a Republican? An Independent? A Democrat? The probability...
In an election, there was a male and a female candidate and voters were either Democrats or non-Democrats. 90% (.90) of the voters were Democrats, and 10% (.10) were non-Democrats. 20% (.20) of the Democrats voted for the female candidate. 45% (.45) of the non-Democrats voted for the female candidate. You know that someone voted for the female candidate, and you are trying to figure out if they are a Democrat. A. Which number in the problem is P(Democrat)? B....
Step by Step Bayes Theorem In an imagined survey of voters, you found 55 % of the voters were Democrats and the rest were Republicans. You also found 90 % of the Democrats voted President Obama but only 14 % of the Republicans did. 55%, or, P(D) 0.55. First some easy questions. You clearly know that the probability voter is a Democrat What is the probability a voter is a Republican, P(D')? What is the probability of somebody voting for...
In a given county, records show that of the registered voters, 45% are Democrats, 35% are Republicans, and 20% are Independents. In an election, 80% of the Democrats, 40 % of the Republicans, and 80% of the Independents voted in favor of a parks and recreation bond proposal. If a registered voter chosen at random is found to have voted in favor of the bond, what is the probability that the voter is a Republican? An Independent? A Democrat?
4. A population of voters contains 45% Republicans, 46% democrats and the rest are independents. Assume 40% of republicans, 60% of democrats and 50% of independents favor an election issue. A person chosen at random from this population is found to favor the issue in question. Find the conditional probability this person is a democrat.
In a certain city, 47% of the registered voters are Democrats. If eight voters are sleeted at random, determine the probability that a) exactly four of them are democrats b) fewer than four of them are democrats c) at least three of them are democrats d) at least three of them are not democrats
40% of all registered voters are Republicans, 45% of all registered voters are Democrats and 15% of all registered voters are Independents. Among the Republican voters, 60% are men. Among the Democratic voters, 30% are men. Finally among the Independent voters, 20% are men. a. A person is selected at random from the population. What is the probability this person is a man? b. A person is selected at random from the population and is found to be a woman....
In one state, 52% of the voters are Republicans, and 48% are Democrats. In a second state, 47% of the voters are Republicans, and 53% are Democrats. Suppose a simple random sample of 100 voters are surveyed from each state. What is the probability that the survey will show a greater percentage of Republican voters in the second state than in the first state? (A) 0.04 (B) 0.05 (C) 0.24 (D) 0.71 (E) 0.76
3) If 40% of the voters in a city are registered Republican, what is the probability that a random sample of eight voters includes at least two Republicans?
