Section II Assume that 90% of all light bulbs of a certain brand last longer than 750 hours. Suppose that light bulbs are selected indepen- dently and at random until finding the first light bulb that lasts at most 750 hours. Let X denote the number of light bulbs that must be selected. 10.

To compute a student's Grade Point Average (GPA) for a term, the student's grades for each course are weighted by the number of credits for the course. Suppose a student had these grades: 3.7 in a 5 credit Math course2.6 in a 3 credit Music course3.1 in a 5 credit Chemistry course3.2 in a 5 credit Journalism course What is the student's GPA for that term? Round to two decimal places.
For this problem, carry at least four digits after the decimal in your calculations. Answers may vary slightly due to rounding.In a combined study of northern pike, cutthroat trout, rainbow trout, and lake trout, it was found that 34 out of 806 fish died when caught and released using barbless hooks on flies or lures. All hooks were removed from the fish. (a) Let p represent the proportion of all pike and trout that die (i.e., p is the mortality rate) when caught and released using barbless hooks. Find a point estimate for p. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(b) Find a 99% confidence interval for p. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) lower limit upper limit

Santa Fe black-on-white is a type of pottery commonly found at archaeological excavations at a certain monument. At one excavation site a sample of 602 potsherds was found, of which 370 were identified as Santa Fe black-on-white. (a) Let p represent the proportion of Santa Fe black-on-white potsherds at the excavation site. Find a point estimate for p. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

The temperature of a certain chemical process is thought to be related to the time it takes for the process to reach completion. Out goal is to that relationship so that we can use it to predict TIME TO REACH COMPLETION at various TEMPERATURES. 14 trials are set up and the time for the process to complete is measured for each of the different temperatures. The data is presented here:(data is in the image added to the question as well as more questions to answer)
