A study of admission rates of men and women into graduate programs for several majors at a certain university was conducted. The study found that overall a higher percentage of men were admitted than women. However, when looking at each major program separately it was found that the rate of admission for women was higher than that for men.Which of the following statements is true? Check all that apply. This is an example of Simpson’s paradox. This is an example of a negative association between variables. “Type of major” may be a lurking variable in this study. This situation is mathematically impossible.

A study was done on the graduation rates (graduate in 4 years versus did not graduate) from two universities: Mode College and Median University. Data were collected for the year 2012 in a variety of majors, and it was found that Mode College does better overall (i.e., has a higher percentage of students who graduate in 4 years). However, in each of the majors separately, Median University does better.Which of the following is true? Check all that apply.This is an example of Simpson's paradox.This is an example of a negative association between variables.This situation is mathematically impossible.“Type of major” could be a lurking variable in this example.

here are 2000 students studying in an undergraduate college that has 60 more female students than male students. 36% of all the students are in BA whereas 30.5% are in BCom. 32% of the students are in the first year. The number of students in second year is 100 more than those in third year. There are 30 more females in BA than in BCom whereas there are 20 less females in BSc than in Bcom. The ratio of males in BA 1st year and 3rd year is 8 : 7 respectively whereas in 2nd year BA the number of males is 5 more than those in 1st year. The number of males in 2nd year in BA and BSc are equal. The number of males in BSc 1st year is 5 more than those in 3rd year. The ratio of females in second year BA and males in second year BCom is 1 : 1. The number of males and females are equal in BSc 2nd year. The number of females in second year BCom and BSc are equal. In BCom, the number of males and females in the 1st year are each 5 less than those in 3rd year. There are 100 females in BSc third year.Q 109.   For which of these pairs is the total number of students in the class equal?a)  BA 1st year and BSc 2nd yearb)  BCom 2nd year and BA 2nd yearc)  BSc 1st year and BSc 3rd yeard)  All the above three
