A student studying for a probability and statistics exam will continue to solve problems from the assigned problems until they encounter four problems the student cannot solve. The probability the student solves a randomly chosen problem is 85%. Let X denote the number of problems attempted. Assume that trials are independent and the probability of solving a problem remains the same. Calculate the expected number of problems O 26.66 O 4.7 4.44 40

A city has 4 voting districts. Records from previous years show the proportion of registered voters that voted in previous elections for each district. A political analyst wants to see if those proportions have changed for this year's upcoming elections. The political analyst randomly samples 123 registered voters and asks them which district they live in and if they have voted yet. H0: Pa = 0.3: Pb = 0.2; Pc = 0.2; Pd = 0.3 Test the claim that there is a difference in the proportions using a α =0.01. Round all answers to at least 4 decimal places. a.) Complete the table: District: A, B, C, D; Observed: 36, 32, 19, 36 ( Respectively, matching Category Letters. Total of Observed: 123) b.) What is the chi-square test-statistic for this data? X 2=______ c. For significance level alpha , what is the chi-square Critical Value? Critical Value = _________________ d. What would be the correct conclusion for this hypothesis test?
