You decide to collect a bunch of cans of soda and measure the volume of soda in each can. Let the number of mL of soda in each can. Does qualify for being a random variable? Is it continuous or discrete? You want to study the efficiency of a machine producing nails over a day that is the number of faultless nails produced during the day. Assuming that the probability that a nail is produced is faultless is independent of the previous nail produced. What is the random variable in this case? This random variable is __________(random/continuous)

ints Assume that females have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of u 72.0 beats per minute and a standard deviation of a 12.5 beats per minute. Complete parts (a) through (c). below. a. If 1 adult female is randomly selected, find the probability that her pulse rate is less than 79 beats per minute. The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. If 4 adult females are randomly selected, find the probability that they have pulse rates with a mean less than 79 beats per minute. The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed) c. Why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 307 OA. Since the mean pulse rate exceeds 30, the distribution of sample means is a normal distribution for any sample size. OB. Since the original population has a normal distribution, the distribution of sample means is a normal distribution for any sample size OC. Since the distribution is of individuals, not sample…
