. Four buses carrying 170 students from the same school arrive at a football stadium. The buses carry, respectively, 50, 45, 40, and 35 students. One of the students is randomly selected. Let X denote the number of students that were on the bus carrying the randomly selected student (including that student). One of the 4 bus drivers is also randomly selected. Let Y denote the number of students on her bus. (a) Compute E[X] and E[Y ]. (b) Compute Var(X) and Var(Y ).

A poll reported that 63% of adults were satisfied with the job the major airlines were doing. Suppose 20 adults are selected at random and the number who are satisfied is recorded. Would it be unusual to find more than 17 who are satisfied with the job the major airlines were doing? The result is/is not unusual, because P(x>17) = _____under the assumption that the proportion of adults that are satisfied with the airlines is 63%. Thus, in 100 random samples of size 20, this result is expected in about ______ of the random samples. (Type integers or decimals. Round to four decimal places as needed.)

Weight Loss (pounds) 0 to <5 5 to <10 10 to <15 15 to 20 20 to <25 A sample of 400 people was randomly selected for a research study from a population of people who wanted to lose weight. The 400 people were placed in a diet and exercise program for four weeks. The table above summarizes the amount of weight loss for the 400 participants. If all the people in the population were placed in the same diet and exercise program as the 400 people in the sample, what percent of the population could the researcher infer would lose at least 10 pounds?

An ordinary (fair) coin is tossed 3 times. Outcomes are thus triples of "heads" (h) and "tails" (t) which we write hth, ttt, etc. For each outcome, let N be the random variable counting the number of tails in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is hht, then = Nhht1. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of N as follows: =X−2N2−4N3. The values of X are given in the table below. Outcome ttt hhh htt hht thh tht hth tth Value of X 3 −3 −3 −5 −5 −3 −5 −3 Calculate the probabilities P (X = x) of the probability distribution of X. First, fill in the first row with the values of X. Then fill in the appropriate probabilities in the second row. Value x of X P (X = x)

A fair dice is rolled. If the outcomes are 1,2,3 or 4, a fair coin is flipped once. If the outcomes are 5 or 6, the coin is flipped twice. Assume the outcomes of dice and the number of tails are represented with random variables X and Y , respectively. Calculate the amount of information for X given Y .
