QUESTION 3
A special advertising section in the July 20, 1998, issue of
Fortune magazine discusses “outsourcing.” According to the
article, outsourcing is “the assignment of critical, but noncore,
business functions to outside specialists.” This allows a
company to immediately bring operations up to best-in-world
standards while avoiding huge capital investments.
Assume that 40 percent of all business executives feel that
the benefits of outsourcing are either more or much more than
expected. You randomly select 10 business executives. Let X
be the total number of business executives who DO NOT feel
that the benefits of outsourcing are either more or much more
than expected.
What is P(X=3)?

QUESTION 5
Recall that the cigarette industry requires that models
in cigarette ads must appear to be at least 25 years
old. Also recall that a sample of 50 people is
randomly selected at a shopping mall. Each person
in the sample is shown a “typical cigarette ad” and is
asked to estimate the age of the model in the ad. The
sample gives a mean of 23.663 years and a standard
deviation of 3.596 years. Let µ be the mean
perceived age estimate for all viewers of the ad, and
suppose we consider the claim that µ is at least 25.
Please test the claim at α=0.01. Assume population
σ=3.596.

A battery company developed a new product. Quality
engineers found that the life times of the new
batteries have a normal distribution with mean 40000
minutes and variance 5000 minutes. To attract new
customers, the battery company will give customers
full refund if the purchased batteries do not last
longer than the minutes stated in the guarantee of
the new battery. What is the guaranteed minutes if the battery
company expects that 2 percent of the customers
who purchase the new batteries will be eligible for full
refund?

QUESTION 11
A random-number generator is supposed to produce
a sequence of 0s and 1s with each value being
equally likely to be a 0 or a 1 and with all values
being independent. In an examination of the random-
number generator, a sequence of 50,000 values is
obtained of which 25,264 are 0s.
Formulate a set of hypotheses to test whether there
is any evidence that the random-number generator is
producing 0s with probability 0.5. Please find the p-
