A probability density curve is described by 2 line segments. The first connects (0, 1/7) and (3.5. 1/7), and the other connects (3.5, 1/7) to the x-axis. Part A: Sketch the probability density curve as described. (Be sure to label all values) Part B: Determine the x-value where the second segment crosses the x-axis. Part C: Determine P(X 0.05). Part E: Determine the median x-value of this distribution.
You want to find the probability that people will return a shopping cart to the corral after loading the groceries in their vehicle. For a 4 hours period, you observe the number of people who returned their cart and the number who did not. A success in this case would be that the person returned their cart. Choose the best statistical tool to calculate this probability A. Use the Central Limit Theorem to find the probability that the sample mean exceeds a certain value B. Use the empirical rule to find the number of cars that bracket 68% of the data C. Calculate a confidence interval for the population mean D. Calculate the total number of successes divided by the total number of observations to find the observed probability
