- Spam Spam filters try to sort your e-mails, deciding whichare real messages and which are unwanted. One methodused is a point system. The filter reads each incominge-mail and assigns points to the sender, the subject, keywords in the message, and so on. The higher the point total,the more likely it is that the message is unwanted. The filterhas a cutoff value for the point total; any message ratedlower than that cutoff passes through to your inbox, and therest, suspected to be spam, are diverted to the junk mailbox.We can think of the filter’s decision as a hypothesistest. The null hypothesis is that the e-mail is a real messageand should go to your inbox. A higher point total provides evidence that the message may be spam; when there’s suf-ficient evidence, the filter rejects the null, classifying the message as junk. This usually works pretty well, but, ofcourse, sometimes the filter makes a mistake.a) When the filter allows spam to slip through into yourinbox, which kind of error is…arrow_forwardVirginia polled a large sample of individuals to find the percentage of students with known food allergies and the percentage of students without known food allergies.

Teams of 3 race around a 200-meter circuit for 2 hours to see who can complete the most laps. Tonya, an office-chair racing coach, contacts the top 5 teams and randomly assigns them to complete a practice race using one of two popular brands of office chair: Brand A and Brand B. In a different time period, the same teams complete a practice race using the opposite brand of chair. Here are the data: A 2-column table with 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled Brand A with entries 116, 107, 101, 97, 94. Column 2 is labeled Brand B with entries 114, 102, 100, 94, 90. Calculate the mean difference (Brand A – Brand B) and the standard deviation of the differences.arrow_forwardThe operations manager in a company that manufactures car mufflers wants to determine if there are any differences in the quality of workmanship among the three shifts. He randomly selects 485 car mufflers and inspects them. Each muffler is either classified as perfect, satisfactory, or defective, and the shift that produced it is also recorded. The two variables of interest are: shift and condition of the muffler produced. The data is summarized by the two-way cross tabulation in Table 4.
