Q1 2.76 In an experiment to study the relationship of hy- pertension and smoking habits, the following data are collected for 180 individuals: Moderate Nonsmokers 21 Smokers 36 26 Heavy Smokers 30 NH 48 19 where H and NH in the table stand for Hypertension and Nonhypertension, respectively. If one of these indi- viduals is selected at random, find the probability that the person is (a) experiencing hypertension, given that the person is a heavy smoker; (b) a nonsmoker, given that the person is experiencing no hypertension.

A consumer magazine wants to compare the lifetimes of ballpoint pens of three different types. The magazine takes a random sample of pens of each type in the following table. Brand 1 Brand 2 Brand 3 260 181 238 218 240 257 184 162 241 219 218 213 Test the claim that there is a difference in mean lifetime for the three brands of ballpoint pens, using α=0.01. Round you answer to 3 decimal places.
In a recent year, 11th grade New York public school students taking an English test produced test scores that were normally distributed with a mean of 84 and a standard deviation of 7.2. Let x be a random variable that represents a test score. What is the lowest score that would still place a student in the top 30% of the scores? A. 85.82 B. 87.78 C. 82.52 D. 79.47
Coal is carried from a mine in West Virginia to a power plant in New York in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic hopper car loader is set to put 87 tons of coal into each car. The actual weights of coal loaded into each car are normally distributed, with mean u = 87 tons and standard deviation o = 1.1 ton. (a) What is the probability that one car chosen at random will have less than 86.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) What is the probability that 20 cars chosen at random will have a mean load weight x of less than 86.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) Suppose the weight of coal in one car was less than 86.5 tons. Would that fact make you suspect that the loader had slipped out of adjustment? O Yes O No Suppose the weight of coal in 20 cars selected at random had an average x of less than 86.5 tons. Would that fact make you suspect that the loader had slipped out of adjustment? Why? Yes, the probability that this…
6.6.16-T Question Help The probability of flu symptoms for a person not receiving any treatment is 0.029. In a clinical trial of a common drug used to lower cholesterol, 33 of 1011 people treated experienced flu symptoms. Assuming the drug has no effect on the likelihood of flu symptoms, estimate the probability that at least 33 people experience flu symptoms. What do these results suggest about flu symptoms as an adverse reaction to the drug? (a) P(X2 33) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

QUESTION 26 Employees in a company experience distractions (phone calls, emails, unscheduled visits etc.) during their office hours. Given that the distraction times are right skewed with a mean of 95 minutes and a standard deviation of 18 minutes. What is the probability that for a random sample of 36 employees their mean distraction time is more than 100 minutes? 0.0004 0.0478 0.3906 0.9772

Samples of three kinds of materials, subjected to extreme temperature changes, produced the results shown in the following table: Material A | Material B Material C| Total Damaged 42 25 23 90 Not damaged 80 52 78 210 Total 122 77 101 300 Use the 0.05 level of significance to test whether the probability of getting damaged is the same for the three kinds of materials. Use 3 decimal places in your computations of the x² test statistic.

An ethanol raikoad tariff is a fee charged for shipments of ethanol on public railroads. An agricultural association publishes tariff rates for railroad-car shipments of ethanol. Assuming that the standard deviation of such tariff rates is $1050, determine the probability that the mean tariff rate of 550 randomly selected railroad-car shipments of ethanol will be within $90 of the mean tariff rate of all railroad-car shipments of ethanol Interpret your answer in terms of sampling error. The probability is D (Round to three decimal places as needed)
