305. About 15% of a town's population consists of senior citizens. Let X count the numberof customers that arrive at a certain restaurant until the tenth senior citizen arrives.(a) What type of random variable is X? Indicate both the type and the appropriateparameters using the "~" notation. Write down the pmf of X, and do not forgetto indicate the range of values that X can take on.Xpx(x)=X||4viilidsdor

A researcher believes at 49% of people who grew up as the only child have an IQ score over 100. However, unknown to the researcher this figure is actually 50% which is the same as the general population. To attempt to find evidence for the claim, the researcher is going to take a random sample of 400 people who grew up as an only child. Let X be the proportion of people in the sample with an IQ score above 100. (a) find the mean of C (b) find the standard deviation of X (c) compute the approximation for P(x >0.49) , which is the probability that there will be 49% or more with the IQ scores over 100 in the sample. Round your answer to four decimal places. * greater than sign, is supposed to be greater than or equal to sign*

Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery. Plasma volume is influenced by the overall health and physical activity of an individual. Suppose that a random sample of 50 male firefighters are tested and that they have a plasma volume sample mean of x = 37.5 ml/kg (milliliters plasma per kilogram body weight). Assume that ? = 7.20 ml/kg for the distribution of blood plasma.

The number N of residential homes that a fire company can serve depends on the distance r (in city blocks) that a fire engine can cover in a specified (fixed) period of time. If we assume that N is proportional to the area of a circle r blocks from the firehouse, then N = Car, where C is a constant, TT = 3.1416..., and r, a random variable, is the number of blocks that a fire engine can move in the specified time interval. For a particular fire company, C= 7, the probability distribution for r is as shown in the accompanying table, and p(r) = 0 for rs 23 and r 2 30. r 24 25 26 27 28 29 p(r) 0.05 0.20 0.30 0.25 0.15 0.05 Find the expected value of N, the number of homes that the fire department can serve.

nN(dp) is define as the “number distribution function” , where dp is the particle diameter. Assume nN(dp) is a normal distribution with a mean of 10 µm and a standard deviation of 2 µm. The total number concentration of particles of all sizes is 10,000 particles cm-3. What is the number concentration of particles in the size range 10 µm and 14 µm?
