According to these data is or are true following statements: I. Total probability of failure of company's items is about 2.4%. II. Probability that an item that is failed is of production B is approximately 36.5%. III. If a product is selected at random, probability that it is of type C and that it is not failed is about 35.9%.

4. Students in Miss Bigelow's English class completed a vocabulary test worth 100 points, and, interestingly, all students received different scores on this test. When Miss Bigelow summarized the test scores, she obtained the following: Minimum = 25 points, Q, = 59 points, Median = 78 points, Q3 = 87 points, and Maximum = 100 points. If Kami's score on this test is at the 40th percentile, what does this mean? A. Kami's test score is between 25 points and 59 points. B. Kami's test score is between 59 points and 78 points. C. Kami's test score is between 78 points and 87 points. D. Kami's test score is between 87 points and 100 points. E. Kami had a higher test score than 60% of her classmates.
2. It has been hypothesized that treatments of plastic used in optic lenses will improve wear. Four different treatments are to be tested. To determine whether any differences in mean wear exist among treatments, 28 castings from a single formulation of the plastic were made and 7 castings were randomly assigned to each of the treatments. Wear was determined by measuring the increase in "haze" after 200 cycles of abrasion (better wear being indicated by smaller increases). The data collected are reported in the accompanying table. Treatment BcD A 9.16 11.95 11.47 11.35 13.29 15.15 9.54 8.73 12.07 14.75 11.26 10.00 11.97 14.79 13.66 9.75 13.31 15.48 11.18 11.71 12.32 13.47 15.03 12.45 11.78 13.06 14.86 12.38 83.90 98.65 87.00 76.37 11.986 14.093 12.429 10.910 Is there evidence of a difference in mean wear among the four treatments?

Are people born in certain seasons more likely to be allergic to dust mites? Research suggests this might be true. The table below gives the birth seasons of 500 randomly selected people who are allergic to dust mites, along with the proportion of births in the general population for each season. Do these data provide convincing evidence that the distribution of birth season is different for people who suffer from this allergy? Number of allergy sufferers Proportion of births in general population Birth Season Winter 117 0.30 Spring 105 0.22 Summer 145 0.24 Fall 133 0.24
A new drug is released to market and it has been determined that the drug is responsible for causing hypertension among those individuals who take the drug. If 30,276 individuals were prescribed the drug in its first year on the market and 17,620 individuals developed hypertension, what is the point prevalence of hypertension among those individuals prescribed the drug, after the drug’s first year on the market?
he Princeton Review, a company that tracks information about various colleges, reports that 30% of CofC students are out-of-state students. If we took many samples of CofC students, and for each sample calculate the proportion $\hat{p}$ of out-of-state students in that sample, what would be the center of this distribution?
Most Australian youth-sports leagues separate athletes by birthdate, and the cutoff date is January 1st. Thus, those children born in January and February have some physical advantages in youth sports over those born in November and December. A recent studysuggests that those physical advantages enjoyed early in life impact the likelihood of a child becoming a professional athlete. The table gives the number of Australian-born 2009 Australian Football League players born in different months of the year, as well as the proportion of births expected if the birthdates of the athletes matched the distribution of all births nationally. Is there evidence that the distribution of birthdates of AFL athletes is not the same as the distribution of birthdates nationally? Birthdates nationally in Australia and for Australian football players Proportion Actual for Months Nationally AFL players Jan-Mar 0.248 196 Apr-June 0.251 162 Jul-Sep 0.254 137…
A clinical trial is run to investigate the effectiveness of an experimental drug in reducing preterm delivery to a drug considered standard care and to placebo. Pregnant women are enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either the experimental drug, the standard drug or a placebo. Women are followed through delivery and classified as delivering preterm (< 37 weeks) or not. The data are shown below. Preterm Delivery Experimental Drug Standard Drug Placebo Yes 17 23 35 No 83 77 65 Is there a statistically significant difference in the proportions of women delivering preterm among the three treatment groups? Run the test at a 5% le significance.
From reviewing the temperature data for one of the regions of Iraq for a period of time, it was found that 15% of the days of the month of July (the number of days is 31) have a maximum temperature of more than 42 degrees Celsius and that 5% of the days of July have a temperature of less than 36 degrees Celsius. If you know that the temperature for the month of July in this region is subject to a normal distribution, then the mean and standard deviation S for this distribution are equal to:
The department of management studies university of Himachal has ordered text books for the new course in Operating Resarch from Tata McGraw Hills. 50% of these books are printed at Delhi plant, two-fifth are printed at Mumbai plant and the remaining are printed at Calcutta plant. The Delhi, Mumbai & Calcutta plants have respective printing error probability of 0.01, 0.03 & 0.07. If the teacher concerned selects a copy from the shipment & finds it has a printing error, which plant is more likely to print the book”
Do you think new package labeling or doing nothing is best? You will want to calculate the percent of bars produced that are within 5 grams of 1000 grams and the percent of bars produced that are within 5 grams of 990 grams. In other words, given a uniform distribution between 980 and 1000, what is the probability of being between 995 and 1005 and what is the probability of being between 985 and 995?
Suppose the above bell curve (normal distribution) represents the voters and their viewpoints (the "height" of the curve represents the number of voters with that particular view) on the highly debated issue for an upcoming election for a member of Congress. The two candidates's (A and B) views on the issue are as indicated; your opinion on the issue is represented by the "green line." Who will you vote for in the election? Why do you prefer that candidate over the other? According to the Median Voter Theory, which candidate will win the election? Why will that candidate win (why will they receive the majority of votes)?
Identify the correct null hypothesis (from the below choices) for each: 1. A study wished to see if husbands or wives are more satisfied in their marriage.

A study wished to see if husbands or wives are more satisfied in their marriage. They selected a 100 married men and 100 married women and asked them rate their satisfaction on a scale of 1 to 10.
