(d) The production cost of a phone battery is $100 and the selling price to the mobile company is $500. When the phone battery is found defective within a year, it could be sent back for repairment, which costs "SmartB" $70. Suppose all defective phone battery would be reported by the customer within a year and would be sent back for repairment. Present the probability distribution function of the profit gained by “SmartB" from a phone battery. (Remark: Profit = revenue – cost) (e) Calculate the expectation, variance, and standard deviation of the profit gained by "SmartB" from a phone battery.

Postpartum depression and anxiety (PPD), is a common medical condition affecting mothers and their families after the birth of a baby. The CDC estimated that 14%14% of women who have recently given birth suffer from PPD. However, this research only reflected self-reported cases. Therefore, one group dedicated to helping women and their families with PPD believes that the true percentage of women who suffer from PPD is much higher. The group conducts a simple random sample of 101101 women who had given birth in the last year and discovers that 2020 of them report having PPD. Based on this evidence, can the group claim that the true percentage of women who have PPD is greater than 14%14%? Use a 0.020.02 level of significance. Step 2 of 3 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Every year, all incoming high school freshmen in a large school district take a math placement test. For this year’s test, the district has prepared two possible versions: Version 1 that covers more material than last year’s test and Version 2 test that is similar to last year’s test. The district suspects that the mean score for Version 1 will be less than the mean score for Version 2. To examine this, over the summer the district randomly selects 90 incoming freshmen to come to its offices to take Version 1, and it randomly selects 75 incoming freshmen to come take Version 2. The 90 incoming freshmen taking Version 1 score a mean of 113.0 points with a standard deviation of 16.8 . The 75 incoming freshmen taking Version 2 score a mean of 117.0 points with a standard deviation of 18.5 . Assume that the population standard deviations of the test scores from the two versions can be estimated to be the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are…
A union of restaurant and foodservice workers would like to estimate this year's mean hourly wage, u, of foodservice workers in the U.S. Last year's mean hourly wage was $8.25, and there is reason to believe that this year's value is less than last year's. The union decides to do a statistical test to see if the value has indeed decreased. The union chooses a random sample of this year's wages, computes the mean of the sample to be $7.98, and computes the standard deviation of the sample to be $1.25. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis (H) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test? |Ho: u is ? H: u is ? v|? ? In the context of this test, what is a Type I error? v the hypothesis that u is ? A Type I error is ? fact, u is ? v when, in Suppose that the union decides not to reject the null hypothesis.

Step 3 of 3 : Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision. 1. We reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is sufficient evidence at a 0.05 level of significance that the true percentage of women who have PPD is greater than 18%. 2.

A statistics practitioner working for major league baseball wants to supply radio and televisioncommentators with interesting statistics. He observed several hundred games and counted the numberof times a runner on first base attempted to steal second base. He found there were 373 such events ofwhich 259 were successful. Estimate with 95% confidence the proportion of all attempted thefts ofsecond base that are successful.
A recent study revealed that the average weight of babies born in the United States is normally distributed with a mean of 7.5 pounds. This number is lower than recent years and so researchers are interested in determining what factors are associated with lower birth weights. One researcher decides to look at the age of the mother to determine if younger mothers have babies that are significantly heavier or lighter than average. To study this the researcher collects data from 87 babies who were born to mothers between the ages of 16 and 18. Only one baby was measured per mother. Twins and other multiple births were excluded. The average weight for these babies was 7.3 pounds with a standard deviation of .6 pounds. Was the average weight of babies of young mothers significantly different than babies in the general population? No, the difference was not significant Yes, they were lighter. Yes, they were heavier
The proportion of drivers who use seat belts depends on things like age (young people are more likely to go unbelted) and gender (women are more likely to use belts). It also depends on local law. In New York City, police can stop a driver who is not belted. In Boston at the time of the study, police could cite a driver for not wearing a seat belt only if the driver had been stopped for some other violation. Here are data from observing random samples of female Hispanic drivers in these two cities. (a) Verify that the 95% CI for the difference in the proportions of female Hispanic drivers in the two cities who wear seat belts pNY −pBT is (0.149,0.353). Show your computation.(b) Determine if the following statements are true or false, and explain your reasoning if you identify the statement as false. i. There was strong evidence that pNY > pBT.ii. 95% of random samples of 220 female Hispanic drivers in New York City and 117 female Hispanic drivers in Boston will yield differences…
