What is the smallest number of men we would have to choose to estimate the mean height of men with an accuracy of +, - 0.5cm, and 95% confidence, assuming a standard deviation of 8cm? - Probability 59493
Determine the probability of a random event out of 10 randomly selected bridge cards. There will be at least three aces. Note This is a team game, with 52 cards in the deck, of which four aces. - Pass a test
The student has to pass a test that contains ten questions. For each of them, he chooses one of 5 answers, with just one being correct. The student did not prepare for the test, so he randomly chose the answers. What are the probabilities that the student - Compare distributions
Which would you expect to be larger, the standard deviation of 5 random numbers picked from 1 to 47 in the California Super Lotto (CSL - write 1 as a result), or the standard deviation of 5 random numbers picked from 1 to 69 in the multi-state PowerBall L
- A student 2
A student randomly selected 225 college students and asked whether they had eaten breakfast that morning before coming to campus. Fifty-seven students were at least 25 years old, and 30 had breakfast that morning. Of the 168 students younger than 25, 82 h - Population variance
In a California community college, 60% of students will transfer to a college in the CSU system. The number of students in a sample who will transfer follows a binomial distribution. If eight students are randomly selected, find the population variance σ² - Sample Proportion
In a California community college, 60% of students will transfer to a college in the CSU system. The number of students in a sample who will transfer follows a binomial distribution. Four hundred students are randomly selected from the college, and 224 of - Error rate
The exam has six questions. Students have an error rate of 20% and can have a maximum of 1 question wrong. What is the probability that they will succeed? - Germination 55283
The supplier of spruce seeds for our nursery declares a germination rate of 80% for his goods. Verify this statement based on an experiment in which only 70 seeds germinated out of 100 randomly selected seeds.

Five men drive to work together; 2 have a Škoda car, and the others have an Opel, Seat, and Hyundai. They always randomly choose which car to drive. Each of the five cars has an equal chance. The random variable X determines how many days the same charact - Suppose 4
Suppose that 14% of all steel shafts produced by a certain process are nonconforming but can be reworked (rather than having to be scrapped). Consider a random sample of 200 shafts, and let X denote the number among these that are nonconforming and can be - Rich retirement
Health care issues are receiving much attention in both academic and political arenas. A sociologist recently surveyed citizens over 60 years of age whose net worth is too high to qualify for government health care but who have no private health insurance - Publishing company
Suppose you work for a publishing company, and before launching a new magazine targeting fashion-oriented consumers, your boss wants to hold a meeting with prospective advertisers. Assume that annual expenditures on magazine ads in this genre are normally - Mortality tables
Mortality tables enable actuaries to obtain the probability that a person will live a specified number of years at any age. Insurance companies and others use such probabilities to determine life insurance premiums, retirement pensions, and annuity paymen
- Binomial probability
What is the binominal probability that at least 4 of the six trials (n=6) are succeeded where φ = 0.50? - Probability 53061
One hundred people work in the office. Each of them spends an average of 25 minutes daily on the phone. A working day has 8 hours. What is the probability that ten workers will be on the phone simultaneously in one day? - Level of significance
At a certain college, it is estimated that 25% of the students have cars on campus. Does this seem to be a valid estimate if, in a random sample of 90 college students, 28 are found to have cars? Use a 0.05 level of significance. - Unemployment rate
Over the last 16 years, the country's unemployment rate has changed according to the following frequency table: years of unemployment: 2 5 2 3 3 1 unemployment rate: 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 in % (percent). Determine the two-sided confidence interval for the var - Poisson distribution - daisies
The meadow behind FLD was divided into 100 equally large parts. Subsequently, it was found that there were no daisies in ten of these parts. Estimate the total number of daisies in the meadow. Assume that daisies are randomly distributed in the meadow.
