A student at Tolland High School wondered if boys or girls at her school traveled a greater distance to college. The student randomly selected 50 boys and 50 girls and found the distance each boy and girl travels to college. What type of interval should the student use to compute the difference in the average distances between how far boys and girls from Tolland High School travel to college?
Imagine a soldier in a trench during an armed conflict. In the enemy camp, inside another trench, is an enemy soldier. This soldier can be one of two categories: regular soldiers or snippers. Only 0.1% of enemy soldiers are known to be snippers. The soldier raises his head to out of the trench and a shot hits his helmet. Considering the distance between individuals, a regular soldier would hit that shot 18% of the time while a snipper would hit 87%. Given that the enemy soldier hit the helmet, what is the probability that the enemy soldier is a snipper? (choose only one) a) 0.091 b) 0.0048 c) 0.046 d)0.17 e) 0.13
Before every flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The Bombardier Dash 8 aircraft can carry 37 passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 6200 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 6200lb/37 = 167.6lb. What is the probability that the aircraft is overloaded? Should the pilot take any action to correct for an overloaded aircraft? Assume that weights of men are normally distributed with a mean of 185.47 lb and a standard deviation of 39 lb. make sure to include pdf

A music fan claims that R&B songs and Rap songs differ in terms of their positivity. The individual collected two independent random samples from the population of all songs on Spotify. Fifteen R&B songs and another fifteen Rap songs were collected and their Valence was recorded. Remember, the variable Valence is measured on a 0 to 1 scale. Songs with high valence sound more positive (e.g. happy, cheerful, euphoric), while songs with low valence sound more negative (e.g. sad, depressed, angry). We will subtract (R&B – Rap) and use the 10% significance level. Assume the Central Limit Theorem conditions hold. The data set is called RBRapSample31. Please import the data set into Rguroo or find it in our group. Define the population parameter in context and symbols in one sentence. State the hypotheses you would use to test the claim that a difference exists in the mean Valence between R&B and Rap songs using correct notation.
