An experimenter wishes to compare the numbers of bacteria of types A and B in samples of water. A total of n independent water samples are taken, and counts are made for each sample. Let Xi denote the number of type A bacteria and Yi denote the number of type B bacteria for sample i. Assume that the two bacteria types are sparsely distributed within a water sample so that X1, X2,..., Xn and Y1, Y2,..., Yn can be considered independent random samples from Poisson distributions with means λ1 and λ2, respectively. Suggest an estimator of λ1/(λ1 +λ2). What properties does your estimator have?

It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the average number of minutes per day that people spend standing or walking. among mildly obese people, the mean number of minutes of daily activity (standing or walking) is approximately normally distributed with mean 376 minutes and standard deviation 64 minutes. the mean number of minutes of daily activity for lean people is approximately normally distributed with mean 528 minutes and standard deviation 107 minutes. a researcher records the minutes of activity for an srs of 7 mildly obese people and an srs of 7 lean people. use z-scores rounded to two decimal places to answer the following: what is the probability (image for it appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the averag0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes? what is the probability (image for it appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the averag0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?
