Given the student waited less than 45 minutes, what is the probability they waited less than 20 minutes? What is the standard deviation of waiting time?
To carry hypothesis tests or to compute confidence intervals for risk and odds rations, we use the natural log of the sample risk or odds ration in place of their actual values. We do because:
If a chemical compound is randomly selected and its pH X is determined, is X a continuous or discrete random variable? Explain. (Note: pH reading runs from 0 to 14)
