Richard has just been given a 10-question multiple-choice quiz in his psychology class. Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct. Since he has not attended class recently, he doesn’t know any of the answers. What makes up a trial? What is a success? What is a failure? What are the values of n, p, and q? Assuming Richard guesses on all 10 questions, find the indicated probabilities. What is the probability that he will answer all 10 correctly. What is the probability that he will answer all 10 incorrectly. What is the probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly. What is the probability that he will get at most 3 correct? What is the average number(expected value) of questions Richard will answer correctly What is the standard deviation?

According to the college registrar's office, 45% of students enrolled in an introductory statistics class this semester are freshmen, 20% are sophomores, 25% are juniors, and 10% are seniors. You want to determine the probability that in a random sample of five students enrolled in introductory statistics this semester, exactly two are freshmen. (a) Describe a trial. Can we model a trial as having only two outcomes? If so, what is success? What is failure? Choose one of the statements below:A. A trial consists of looking at the class status of a student enrolled in introductory statistics. Yes we can model this trial with "freshman" being a success and "any other class" as a failure.B.

(Not graded, practice problems only.) When purchasing bulk orders of batteries, a toy manufacturer uses this acceptance sampling plan: Randomly select and test 39 batteries and determine whether each is within specifications. The entire shipment is accepted if at most 3 batteries do not meet specifications. A shipment contains 3000 batteries, and 2% of them do not meet specifications. What is the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted? Will almost all such shipments be accepted, or will many be rejected? The probability that this whole shipment will be accepted is______ The company will accept ____% of the shipments and will reject ____% of the shipments
