A real estate company is interested in the ages of home buyers. They examined the ages of thousands of home buyers and found that the mean age was 40 years old, with a standard devlation of 12 years. Suppose that these measures are valid for the population of all home buyers. Complete the following statements about the distribution of all ages of home buyers. (a) According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least ages lie between 16 years and 64 years. of the home buyers' (b) According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least 8/9 (about 89%) of the home buyers' ages lie between years and years. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil change facility will perform 40 oil changes between 10 AM and 12PM. Treating this as a random sample, there would be a 10% chance of the mean oil change time being at or below what value.

In anticipation of an upcoming election, officials in Rising Falls County are looking at the distance from each voter's home to that voter's nearest polling station. Assume that the population of all such distances for voters in Rising Falls County is approximately normally distributed. An article for the newspaper Politically Sound claimed that the mean of this population is 5.15 km. You want to test this claim, so you select a random sample of 23 Rising Falls County voters, and for each you record the distance the voter lives from their nearest polling station. Follow the steps below to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean of all the distances voters in Rising Falls County live from their nearest polling station. Then state whether the confidence interval you construct contradicts the reporter's claim. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Click on "Take Sample" to see the results for your random sample. Take Sample Sample size: П Point estimate: 0…
In a data set of wages of productivity lost during a recent recession, the distribution can be roughly described as unimodal and very left-skewed. Select the most appropriate conclusion from the list of statements. A. Calculating the midrange is much more tedious process than calculating the mean. B. The median of wages lost must be far lower than the mean of wages lost. C. The mean is the most representative measure of center for this data set. D. If there are extremely high lost wages present, the mean will not be sensitive to these data values.

Would the data sets that follow possess relative frequency distributions that are symmetric, skewed to the right, or skewed to the left? a. The salaries of all persons employed by a large company Choose the correct answer below. A. The data set is symmetric because the mean value would be nearly the same as the median value. The measurements would be centered around a single value. B. The data set is skewed left because the mean value would be less than the median value. There would be a few, but small, measurements that would pull the mean away from the median toward the left. C. The data set is skewed right because the mean value would be more than the median value. There would be a few, but large, measurements that would pull the mean away from the median toward the right.
