For a t distribution with 16 degrees of freedom, find the area, or probability, in each region.
A consumer products company is formulating a new shampoo and is interested in foam height (in millimeters). Foam height is approximately normally distributed and has a standard deviation of 20 milli
What is the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval (to 2 decimals)? What would you recommend if the study required a margin of error of $150 or less?
If there is enough evidence, further testing is conducted. If there is not enough evidence, the site is removed from consideration. Discuss the consequences and potential costs of Type I and Type II
A machine that produces ball bearings is set so that the average diameter is .50 inch. A sample of 10 ball bearings was measured, with the results shown here. Assuming that the standard deviation is
A simple random sample of 40 items resulted in a sample mean of 25. The population standard deviation is 5.
An acceptance plan calls for the inspection of a sample of 115 products out of a lot of 3000. If there are 6 or fewer nonconforming products in the sample, the lot is accepted; with 7 or more, it is
The number of imperfections in an object follows a Poisson distribution with a mean=8.3. If the number of imperfections is 4 or fewer, the object is called "top quality." If the number of imperfecti
Let R1 and R2 be uniform random variables on the interval (a, b).
The average number of articles produced by 2 machines per day is 200 and 250 with standard deviation 20 and 25 respectively on the basis of records of 25 days production. Can u regard both the mach
What research design was used in this study? What is the independent variable in this study? What is the dependent variable in this study?
There are 4 yellow, 6 black, and 4 pink marbles in a hat. Marbles are not returned after they have been drawn. How do you find P(the first marble is black, the second marble is not pink, and the third
Follow the instructions in the applet to fill out the 1st graphs then answer the following question: What is the impact of the new point on the standard deviation?
Correlation is often miscast as causation. That is, cause is attributed to a variable when in fact, there is no causal relationship but only a correlation between the two variables.
You toss n coins, each showing heads with probability p, independently of the other tosses. Each coin that shows tails is tossed again. Let X be the total number of heads.
Suppose that the distribution function of a discrete random variable X is given by
The six readings, in parts per million, were 9.54, 9.61, 9.32, 9.48, 9.70, 9.26. Estimate σ^2, the population variance for readings on this standard, in a 90% con dence interval. What assumpti
A random sample of 90 students at a private high school is tested and and a mean SAT score of 1030 is obtained. The average score for public high school student is 1000 (s= 200).
We pick a number between 0 and 999, then a computer picks one at random from that range. Compute the probability at least two of our digits will match the computers number. ( Note: We include any le
An investor picks 3 stocks out of 10 recommended by his broker. Of these, six will show a profit in the next year. What is the porbability the investor will pick
The set of numbers chosen is all that is important. The order in which they were chosen is irrelevant.
Marks on a Chemistry test follow a normal distribution with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 12. Approximately what percentage of the students has scores below 50?
Given the estimated relationship Y = 4 + 3.1X +e where the standard deviation of the coefficient on X is 2 and we have a sample of 17 observations, test whether the coefficient is significantly diff
Make assumptions about the marginal pdf fx1(x1) and the conditional pdf fx2 I x1 (x2 I x1).
