34% of CSU students participate in the Statistics Games while they attend CSU. You take a random sample of 40 students. You want to determine the probability that more than 15 of them have participated in the Statistics games. Since the conditions are met, you decide to use the Normal model to find your answer. What is the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution?
esc Introduction A chain of restaurants has historically had a mean wait time of 9 minutes for its customers. Recently, the restaurant added several very popular dishes back to their menu. Due to this, the manager suspects the wait time, μ, has increased. He takes a random sample of 44 customers. The mean wait time for the sample is 9.6 minutes. Assume the population standard deviation for the wait times is known to be 3.3 minutes. Can the manager conclude that the mean wait time is now greater than 9 minutes?

* Your answer is incorrect. Service time for a customer coming through a checkout counter in a retail store is a random variable with the mean of 3.5 minutes and standard deviation of 3.5 minutes. Suppose that the distribution of service time is fairly close to a normal distribution. Suppose there are two counters in a store, n₁ = 2 customers in the first line and n₂ = 13 customers in the second line. Find the probability that the difference between the mean service time for the shorter line X₁ and the mean service time for the longer one X₂ is more than 0.1 minutes. Assume that the service times for each customer can be regarded as independent random variables. Round your answer to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76). P = i 98.80
