A stockroom dlerk retums three safety helmets at random to three steel mill employees who had previously checked them. If Smith, Jones, and Brown, in that order, receive one of the three hats, list the sample points for the possible orders of retuming the helmets, and find the value m of the random variable M that represents the number of correct matches.

A researcher is comparing the effectiveness of three devices designed to help people who snore. There are 210 people who snore participating in the experiment. Using a table of random digits starting from the first row and column, the researcher will randomly place the participants into three equally sized treatment groups suitable for comparison. Which number range would be needed to label the subjects correctly? O 0-2 O 1-3 O 000-210 O 001-210
In a large clinical trial, 392,553 children were randomly assigned to two groups. The treatment group consisted of 195,331 children given a vaccine for a certain disease, and 36 of those children developed the disease. The other 197,222 children were given a placebo, and 129 of those children developed the disease. Consider the vaccine treatment group to be the first sample. Identify the values of n1, p1, q1, n2, p2, q2, p, and q.
The proportion of brown M&M's in a milk chocolate packet is approximately 14%. Suppose a package of M&M's typically contains 57 M&M's. a) State the random variable. b) List the given numbers with correct symbols. = 57 = 0.14 c) Explain why this is a binomial experiment. Check all that apply. There are more than two outcomes for each M&M There are a fixed number of M&Ms, 57 Whether or not one randomly selected M&M is brown will not affect whether or not another randomly selected M&M is brown There is not a fixed number of M&Ms There are only two outcomes for each M&M p = 14% remains constant from one randomly selected M&M to another Whether or not one randomly selected M&M is brown will affect whether or not another randomly selected M&M is brown Find the probability, to 4 decimal places: It is possible when rounded that a probability is 0.0000 d) exactly none are brown. e) exactly 54 are brown. f) at least…

A car dealer is interested in comparing the average gas mileages of four different car models. The dealer believes that the average gas mileage of a particular car will vary depending on the person who is driving the car due to different driving styles. Because of this, he decides to use a randomized block design. He randomly selects five drivers and asks them to drive each of the cars. He then determines the average gas mileage for each car and each driver. Can the dealer conclude that there is a significant difference in average gas mileages of the four car models? The results of the study are as follows. Average Gas Mileage Driver Car A Car B Car C Car D Driver 1 3232 2222 3030 3939 Driver 2 2121 3939 3838 3737 Driver 3 2626 3131 3232 3939 Driver 4 3838 4040 2323 3434 Driver 5 3131 2929 2121 2222 Copy Data ANOVA Source of Variation SSSS dfdf MSMS Rows 174.2000174.2000 44 43.550043.5500 Columns 91.600091.6000 33 30.533330.5333 Error 607.4000607.4000 1212…
A sporting goods manufacturing company wanted to compare the distance traveled by golf balls produced using four different designs. Nine balls were manufactured with each design and were brought to the local golf course for the club professional to test. The order in which the balls were hit with the same club was randomized to the pro did not know which type of ball was being hit. All 36 balls were hit (assuming the environmental conditions played no role). The resulting distances in yards were recorded and are shown in the following table: Design 1 Design 2 Design 3 Design 4 206.32 217.08 226.77 230.55 207.94 221.43 224.79 227.95 206.19 218.04 229.75 231.84 204.45 224.13 228.51 224.87 209.65 211.82 221.44 229.49 203.81 213.90 223.85 231.10 206.75 221.28 223.97 221.53 205.68 229.43 234.30 235.45 204.49 213.54 219.50 228.35 Write a set of hypotheses to test the mean…
An adventure company runs two obstacle courses, Fundash and Coolsprint, with similar designs. Since Fundash was built on rougher terrain, the designer of the courses suspects that the mean completion time of Fundash is greater than the mean completion time of Coolsprint. To test this, she selects 205 Fundash runners and 260 Coolsprint runners. (Consider these as independent random samples of the Fundash and Coolspring runners.) The 205 Fundash runners complete the course with a mean time of 77.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 8.2 minutes. The 260 individuals complete Coolsprint with a mean time of 76.0 minutes and a standard deviation of 7.7 minutes. Assume that the population standard deviations of the completion times can be estimated to be the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are used to compute them are quite large. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there enough evidence to support the claim that the mean completion time, u,, of Fundash is greater than…
