12. let θ denote the proportion of registered voters in a large city who are in favor of a certain proposition. suppose that the value of θ is unknown, and two statisticians a and b assign to θ the following different prior p. d.f.’s ξa(θ ) and ξb(θ ), respectively: ξa(θ ) = 2θ for 0 < θ< 1, ξb(θ ) = 4θ 3 for 0 < θ< 1. in a random sample of 1000 registered voters from the city, it is found that 710 are in favor of the proposition. a. find the posterior distribution that each statistician assigns to θ. b. find the bayes estimate for each statistician based on the squared error loss function. c. show that after the opinions of the 1000 registered voters in the random sample had been obtained, th

Aretha wanted to gather data about the cost of local bowling leagues in her area. she plotted the data and determined that the average bowling league costs consist of a one-time registration fee and a monthly fee modeled by the equation y = 15x + 20. identify and interpret the y-intercept in this model. the y-intercept is 20. this is the cost per month. the y-intercept is 20. this is the cost of registration. the y-intercept is 15. this is the cost of registration. the y-intercept is 15. this is the cost per month.
