Suppose a researcher is interested in the number of good versus bad dreams that students have during the week. The researcher states that p = 0.48 that a student will have a bad dream during the week. (a) What type of probability distribution is appropriate for these data? bimodal distribution, positively skewed distribution, negatively skewed distribution, binomial distribution. (b) If a professor has 50 students in his class, then how many students should he expect to have bad dreams during the week? (c) Assuming complementary outcomes, what is the probability (q) that a student will have a good dream? .

The number of new customers per week is Poisson with mean rate 4. What is the probability of 2, 3, or 4 (between 2 and 4) new customers in any given week?
You might think that if you looked at the first digit in randomly selected numbers that the distribution would be uniform. Actually, it is not! Simon Newcomb and later Frank Benford both discovered that the digits occur according to the following distribution: (digit, probability)(1,0.301),(2,0.176),(3,0.125),(4,0.097),(5,0.079),(6,0.067),(7,0.058),(8,0.051),(9,0.046)(1,0.301),(2,0.176),(3,0.125),(4,0.097),(5,0.079),(6,0.067),(7,0.058),(8,0.051),(9,0.046) The IRS currently uses Benford's Law to detect fraudulent tax data. Suppose you work for the IRS and are investigating an individual suspected of embezzling.
