1. Sampling Individuals Assume the machine shifts and the distribution of the amount of the compound added now has a mean of 9.96 milligrams and a standard deviation of 0.05 milligram. You select one vial and determine how much of the compound was added. (a) What is the probability that you select a vial that is within the acceptable range (in other words, you do not detect that the machine has shifted)? (See figure.) (b) You randomly select 15 vials. What is the probability that you select at least one vial that is within the acceptable range?

Information needed for the next two problems: A bored statistician is interested in researching length of commercial breaks on cable channels (ESPN, TNT, etc.) and comparing them to the length of commercial breaks on the networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX). She times a random sample of commercials from each of the two types of broadcasts which are assumed to be normally distributed. Source n Mean(min.) Std. Dev. (min.) Cable 15 2.36 0.16 Network 12 2.18 0.13 Based on your previous answer for the upper bound and assuming the lower bound ratio of variances of cable to network is 0.5531, your conclusion about the spread of the variances of cable vs network commercials is O 1 is in the interval so statistically the same O O is in the interval so statistically the same O 1 is not in the interval so statistically different O O is in the interval so statistically not the same O 1 is in the interval so statistically not the same
A population of N = 5 scores has a mean of u = 20 and a standard deviation of o = 4. Which of the following is the correct Interpretation of the standard deviation? O The average distance of scores from the mean of p- 20 is 5 points. O The average distance of scores from the mean of u = 20 is 1 point. The average distance of scores from the mean of u = 20 is 4 points. O The average squared distance of scores from the mean of u = 20 is 4 points.
Empirical research on stock market data for two consecutive trading days indicates that 60% of the stocks that went up on the first day also went up on the second day. Yesterday, 600 stocks went up. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of p, where p gives the proportion of the 600 stocks that went up yesterday that will go up today. (b) Find the standard deviation of p. (c) Compute an approximation for P(p <0.58), which is the probability that fewer than 58% of the stocks that went up yesterday will go up again today. Round your answer to four decimal places.
In a Normal distribution, the Empirical Rule states that... ["", "", "", "", ""] of the data is within 1 standard deviation of the mean, ["", "", "", "", ""] of the data is within 2 standard deviation of the mean, and ["", "", "", "", ""] of the data is within 3 standard deviation of the mean.
In a study, 25,000 adults were randomly surveyed as to the number of grandchildren they have, X. The probability distribution is given below. Find the mean and the standard deviation of the probability distribution using a TI-83, TI-83 Plus, or TI-84 graphing calculator.
