A previous year, the weights of the members of the
San Francisco 49ers and the
Dallas Cowboys were published in the
San Jose Mercury News . The factual data are compiled into the following table.

For the following, suppose that you randomly select one player from the 49ers or Cowboys.
Find the probability that his shirt number is from 1 to 33.
Find the probability that he weighs at most 210 pounds.
Find the probability that his shirt number is from 1 to 33 AND he weighs at most 210 pounds.
Find the probability that his shirt number is from 1 to 33 OR he weighs at most 210 pounds.
Find the probability that his shirt number is from 1 to 33 GIVEN that he weighs at most 210 pounds.
If having a shirt number from 1 to 33 and weighing at most 210 pounds were independent events, then what should be true about
?
Approximately 281,000,000 people over age 5 live in the United States. Of these people, 55,000,000 speak a language other than English at home. Of those who speak another language at home, 62.3% speak Spanish. (

Let:
= speak English at home;
= speak another language at home;
= speak Spanish;
Finish each probability statement by matching the correct answer.
The probability that a male develops some form of cancer in his lifetime is 0.4567 (Source: American Cancer Society). The probability that a male has at least one false positive test result (meaning the test comes back for cancer when the man does not have it) is 0.51 (Source: USA Today). Some of the questions below do not have enough information for you to answer them. Write “not enough information” for those answers.
Let:
= a man develops cancer in his lifetime;
= man has at least one false positive
Construct a tree diagram of the situation.

If a test comes up positive, based upon numerical values, can you assume that man has cancer? Justify numerically and explain why or why not.
In 1994, the U.S. government held a lottery to issue 55,000 Green Cards (permits for non-citizens to work legally in the U.S.). Renate Deutsch, from Germany, was one of approximately 6.5 million people who entered this lottery. Let
.
What was Renate’s chance of winning a Green Card? Write your answer as a probability statement.
In the summer of 1994, Renate received a letter stating she was one of 110,000 finalists chosen. Once the finalists were chosen, assuming that each finalist had an equal chance to win, what was Renate’s chance of winning a Green Card? Let
. Write your answer as a conditional probability statement.
Are
and
independent or dependent events? Justify your answer numerically and also explain why.
Are
and
mutually exclusive events? Justify your answer numerically and also explain why.
P.S. Amazingly, on 2/1/95, Renate learned that she would receive her Green Card -- true story!
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills
