In every ESST 3002 lecture, each student spends an average of 10 minutes on social media instead of listening to the lecture. Assume that the time spent on social by a student is normally distributed with a variance of 4 minutes. The lecture presentation software can detect when a student is on social media websites. The lecturer reviews data from one of his lectures, selects a sample of 10 students at random and measures the time each student spends on social media during the lecture. The sample mean time is found. a) What is the sampling distribution of the sample mean time? (Is it F or Binomial or Poisson or Normal etc). b) What is the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution identified in part (a)? c) If the sample mean time spent by these 10 students on social media is less than 7 minutes, the lecturer will award a grade A to every student in the class. Find the probability that every student in the class is awarded a grade of A.
Suppose, you are running an experiment that has two outcomes, namely 'success' and 'failure'. You intially don't know the probability of success in a single experiment. But you know that, if you continue to run the experiment several times, the expected number of experiment required for the first success is 25. What is the variance of the number of experiments required for the first success? In details.
A pharmaceutical company sells a tablet for treating colds. After extensive experimentation, researchers at the pharmaceutical company have developed a new formula for the tablet. The researchers suspect that the mean recovery time of all patients treated with the old tablet is more than the mean recovery time of all patients who are treated with the new tablet. To see if this is true, a random selection of volunteers were exposed to a typical cold virus. After they started to have cold symptoms, 25 of them were given the old tablet. The remaining 25 volunteers were given the new tablet. For each individual, the length of time taken to recover from the cold was recorded. At the end of the experiment the following data were obtained. It is known that the population standard deviation of the recovery time from a cold is 1.8 days when treated with the old tablet, and the population standard deviation of the recovery time from a cold is 1.5 days when treated with the new tablet. It is also…
Let a random experiment be the casting of a pair of fair five-sided dice and let X equal the maximum of two outcomes. With reasonable assumptions, find pmf of X. Also, find the mean and variance of X.
Suppose that in a sample of 30 patients, the variance of a randomly selected person having a genetic disease was 3.7. Calculate the highest possible expected number of patients that would have this disease.
A set of solar batteries is used in a research satellite. The satellite can run on only one battery, but it runs best if more than one battery is used. The variance ?2 of lifetimes of these batteries affects the useful lifetime of the satellite before it goes dead. If the variance is too small, all the batteries will tend to die at once. Why? If the variance is too large, the batteries are simply not dependable. Why? Engineers have determined that a variance of ?2 = 23 months (squared) is most desirable for these batteries. A random sample of 30 batteries gave a sample variance of 15.2 months (squared). Using a 0.05 level of significance, test the claim that ?2 = 23 against the claim that ?2 is different from 23. (a) What is the level of significance?State the null and alternate hypotheses. Ho: ?2 = 23; H1: ?2 ≠ 23Ho: ?2 > 23; H1: ?2 = 23 Ho: ?2 = 23; H1: ?2 < 23Ho: ?2 = 23; H1: ?2 > 23 (b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round your answer to two…

An antidepressant has historically been known to relieve depression for 80% of patients who use the drug. The drug's formula was changed recently to include a smaller dose of its main, active ingredient. Due to this change, a medical researcher suspects that among all people with depression who use the new version of the drug, the proportion, p, of people who find relief is lower than 80%. A random sample of 245 patients who use the new version is selected by the researcher, and 178 of them find relief from depression. Based on these data, can we support the researcher's claim at the 0.01 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

A nail is needed to hang up a 50 lb painting on a wall. A technician has two nails in his pocket, where the probability that both nails meet the specific weight of the painting is 50%, the probability that only one of them meets the specific weight is 20%, and the probability that neither of them meets the specific weight is 30%. If the number of nails that meet the specification is a random variable, find the variance of the data of that random variable.
The burning life (in hours) of electric lamps installed in a street of a city follows a normal distribution with an average of 120 burning hours and variance of 54000 square minutes. Find the probability of the electric lamps that are likely to burn for more than 110 hours more than 5124 minutes and less than 7450 minutes
