In an area having sandy soil, 40 small trees of a certain type were planted, and another 40 trees were planted in an area having clay soil. Let X = the number of trees planted in sandy soil that survive 1 year and Y = the number of trees planted in clay soil that survive 1 year. If the probability that a tree planted in sandy soil will survive 1 year is 0.5 and the probability of 1-year survival in clay soil is 0.4, compute an approximation to P(-4 sX - Y s 4) (do not bother with the continuity correction). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) A USE SALT 148

An automobile service facility specializing in engine tune-ups knows that 60% of all tune-ups are done on four-cylinder automobiles, 30% on six-cylinder automobiles, and 10% on eight-cylinder automobiles. Let X = the number of cylinders on the next car to be tuned. What is the pmf of X?
Suppose that a study was conducted to determine if there is a significant difference in the average temperature of individuals before and after COVID-19 boosters were given. The temperatures of a sample of individuals were obtained before the boosters were given. The following day, their temperatures were again measured. The table below shows the data in degrees Celsius. (10 points) Temperature before Temperature after one day. Determine If there is a significant difference in the average temperature of Individuals who were given boosters at 5% level of significance. Assume that the differences in the temperatures follow the normal distribution.
A production superintendent claims that there is no difference between the employee accident rates for the day versus the evening shifts in a large manufacturing plant. The number of accidents per day is recorded for both the day and evening shifts for n = 100 days. It is found that the number of accidents per day for the evening shift XE exceeded the corresponding number of accidents on the day shift xp on 63 of the 100 days. Do these results provide sufficient evidence to indicate that more accidents tend to occur on one shift than on the other or, equivalently, that P(XE > XD) # 1/2?
It is known that in a certain town 30% of the people own an Kpfone. A researcher asks people at random whether they own an Kpfone. The random variable X represents the number of people asked up to and including the first person who owns an Kpfone. Determine that P(X <6).
a. What is the probability that it would take more than 4 minutes to reach the accident? b. What is the probability that it would take either less than 2 minutes or more than 5 minutes to reach the scene of the accident? c. What is the expected time to reach the accident?
A sample of n = 64 scores has a mean of M = 68. Assuming that the population mean is p = 60, find the z-score for this sample: If it was obtained from a population with o = 16 Z = If it was obtained from a population with o = 32 Z = If it was obtained from a population with o = 48 Z =
Assume the below life table was constructed from following individuals who were diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer and decided not to receive treatment of any form. Calculate the survival probability at year 1 using the Kaplan-Meir approach and interpret the results.

The probability of surviving 1 year after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for the individuals being followed in this study. The probability of surviving 1 year after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for individuals who decided against all forms of treatment.

A company manufacturing CDs is working on a new technology. A random sample of 717 Internet users were asked "As you may know, some CDs are being manufactured so that you can only make one copy of the CD after you purchase it. Would you buy a CD with this technology, or would you refuse to buy it even ifit was one you would normaly buy?" Of hose usert, 56% responded that they would buy the CD. Complete parts a and b below a) Create a 90% confidence interval for this percentage 口口 (Round to three decimal places as needed, Use ascending order.)
Before every flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The aircraft can carry 37 passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 5,994lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 5,994/37lb=162lb. What is the probability that the aircraft is overloaded? Should the pilot take any action to correct for an overloaded aircraft? Assume that weights of men are normally distributed with a mean of 181.6lb and a standard deviation of 36.2. The probability is approximately?
If the life expectacy in county A is 65 years with CI of (55, 75) and in county B is 87 years with CI of (40, 98), are the two life expectancies likely to be statistically different?
Suppose you are fitting a survival model and the outcome of interest is time to the diagnosis of cancer (T). A subject entered the study at t=0 and the diagnosis of cancer did not occur by the end of the study period, what kind of event is that? It is an interval-censored observation because an event happened between time of entry and the exit. It is a right-censored observation because no event will be observed during the study period. It is a left-censored observation where the event of interest happened before the study starts. It is a right-censored observation because the event has already occurred.
Benford's Law claims that numbers chosen from very large data files tend to have "1" as the first nonzero digit disproportionately often. In fact, research has shown that if you randomly draw a number from a very large data file, the probability of getting a number with "1" as the leading digit is about 0.301. Suppose you are an auditor for a very large corporation. The revenue report involves millions of numbers in a large computer file. Let us say you took a random sample of n = 250 numerical entries from the file and r = 60 of the entries had a first nonzero digit of 1. Let p represent the population proportion of all numbers in the corporate file that have a first nonzero digit of 1. Test the claim that p is less than 0.301 by using α = 0.01. What does the area of the sampling distribution corresponding to your P-value look like? a. The area in the right tail of the standard normal curve. b. The area not including the right tail of the standard normal curve.…
