- Suppose that X1, X2, X3 and X4 are all independent random variables, each with a normal distribution with mean 9 and variance 25. Define X-bar = (X1 + X2 + X3 + X4) / 4. Find Prob(X-bar > 10).Let x be a random variable that represents the weights in kilograms (kg) of healthy adult female deer (does) in December in a national park. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal with mean ? = 62.0 kg and standard deviation ? = 9.0 kg. Suppose a doe that weighs less than 53 kg is considered undernourished. (c) To estimate the health of the December doe population, park rangers use the rule that the average weight of n = 70 does should be more than 59 kg. If the average weight is less than 59 kg, it is thought that the entire population of does might be undernourished. What is the probability that the average weight x for a random sample of 70 does is less than 59 kg (assuming a healthy population)? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Suppose park rangers captured, weighed, and released 70 does in December, and the average weight was x = 63.8 kg. Do you think the doe population is undernourished or not? Explain. A. Since the sample average is above the mean, it…Previous Probletn Let X and Y be independent random variables. Suppose X has variance 2 and let Y have variance 5. Find Var(3X-2Y + 3). Please answer to 2 decimal places.
- tion 21. An investor is considering two types of investment. She is quite satisfied that the expected return on investment 1 is higher than the expected return on investment 2. However, she is quite concerned that the risk associated with investment 1 is higher than that of investment 2. To help make her decision, she randomly selects seven monthly returns on investment 1 and ten monthly returns on investment 2. She finds that the sample variances of investments 1 and 2 are 225 and 118, respectively. a) Can she infer at the 5% significance level that the population variance of investment 1 exceeds that of investment 2? b) Estimate with 95% confidence the ratio of the two population variances. c) Briefly describe what the interval estimate tells you., A manufacturer of sunflower oil uses machines to distribute liquid ingredients into bottles that move along a filling line. The machine that distributes is working properly when 8 ounces are distributed. Suppose that the average amount distributed in a particular sample of 35 bottles is 7.91 ounces. Assume that the variance of the process is known to be 0.03 ounces squared. Is there evidence that the machine should be stopped (when not 8 ounces are distributed), and production wait for repairs? The lost production from a shutdown is potentially so great that management feels that the level of confidence in the analysis should be 99%.13
