- 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 - Three sigma rule
The height of trees in a given stand is known to be a quantity with a normal probability distribution with a mean value of 15 m and a variance of 5 m². Determine the interval in which there will be tree heights in such a stand with a probability of 90% - IQ Intelligence quotient
Intelligence quotient (IQ) is a standardized score used as the output of standardized intelligence psychological tests to quantify a person's intelligence with the rest of the population (respectively, to a given group). Intelligence has an approximately - Probability 30311
There are 200 components in the production batch, of which 26 have a plus deviation from the nominal value. Calculate the probability that none of the 10 products selected will have a positive variance if we make selections without repetition - The shooter
The shooter shoots at the target, assuming that the individual shots are independent of each other and the probability of hitting them is 0.2. The shooter fires until he hits the target for the first time, then stop firing. (a) What is the most likely num - Distribution 29371
Let the random variable ξ represent the number of satisfied customers. The probability of a satisfied customer for each of the four customers is 7/10. Specify: a) probability distribution, distribution function F(x) and P(-0.5 < ξ < 3.1) b) variance - Ball bearings
One bearing is selected from the shipment of ball bearings. It is known from previous deliveries that the inner bearing radius can be considered a normal N distribution (µ = 0.400, σ2 = 25.10^−6). Calculate the probability that the selected radius will ex - Distribution 6399

The life of the bulbs has a normal distribution with a mean value of 2000 hours and a standard deviation of 200 hours. What is the probability that the light bulb will last for at least 2100 hours? - Distribution 6282
The waiting time in the buffet is governed by the normal distribution with a mean value of 130 seconds and a variance of 400. What is the probability that someone will wait less than a minute and a half? - Distribution 2645
The worker operates 600 spindles on which the yarn is wound. The probability of tearing the yarn on each spindle at time t is 0.005. a) Determine the probability distribution of the number of torn spindles at time t and the mean and variance. b) What is t - Balls
We have n identical balls (numbered 1-n) selected without replacement. Determine 1) The probability that at least one tensile strength number coincides with the number of balls? 2) Determine the mean and variance of the number of balls, which coincides wi
