In a recent year, a hospital had 4463 births. Find the mean number of births per day, then use that result and the Poisson distribution to find the probability that in a day there are 14 births. Does it appear likely that on any given day, there will be exactly 14 births?

A company that sells binders decides to run a promotion on their 1-inch and 2-inch size binders. Theydiscount the 1-inch binders to $1 per binder and discount the 2-inch binders to $2 per binder. They limitsales to a quantity of 5 of each size of binder per customer. The probability distribution of “X = the numberof 1-inch binders purchased by a single customer during the promotion period” is given in the table below. X 1 2 3 4 5 P(X) 0.02 0.09 0.12 0.15 0.62 a) Compute the mean and standard deviation of X. b) The company’s cost of manufacturing a single 1-inch binder is $0.25. What is the expected profit (indollars) that the company will make, per customer, for 1-inch binder sales during the promotion? c) The mean and standard deviation of “Y = the number of 2-inch binders purchased by a singlecustomer” is 2.74 and 1.25, respectively. Assume that the number of 1-inch and 2-inch binderspurchased are independent random variables. What are the mean and standard deviation of the…
A transportation department reported that all domestic airlines in on-time arrivals for domestics’ flights with a rate of 0.825. Using the binomial distribution, what is the probability that in the next six flights, that at least four flights will be on time?
A weighted coin has a 0.486 probability of landing on heads and a 0.514 probability of landing on tails. If you toss the coin 27 times, we want to know the probability of getting heads exactly 11 times.Consider a toss of heads as success in the binomial distribution.
Suppose you are a lawyer representing a Hispanic individual in a criminal trial. Twelve jurors are randomly selected by the state from a population that you know to be 40% Hispanic. 4.8 JURORS ARE EXPECTED TO BE HISPANIC. The select process produces a jury with 3 Hispanic individuals, meaning that 25% of the jury is Hispanic. Using the binomial distribution we find that the probability that 3 or fewer jurors would be Hispanic is 0.2253. Create a graph of the distribution with the area corresponding to the previous information. Use Statistics to make an argument to the court on behalf of your client. Explain why random sampling in this situation of juror selection relates the expected sample proportion to the population proportion.Compare the expected value to the actual sample proportion.

Of the students in the college, 60% of the students reside in the hostel and 40% of the students are day scholars. Previous year result reports that 30% of all students who stay in the hostel scored A Grade and 20% of day scholars scored A grade. At the end of the year, one student is chosen at random and found that he/she has an A grade. What is the probability that the student is a hostlier?
For a marketing research it is known that the proportion women who use personal care products is 0.40 and the proportion of men is 0.25 for a sample of 500 women and 400 men chosen at random, who follow a binomial distribution. Calculate the value of the difference between the sample proportion by gender so that the probability is less than 0.9975?
You are looking for the probability to draw 3 aces in 5 attempts from a deck of cards. There are 52 cards in the deck and 4 of them are aces. Explain why the poisson is not a good choice for describing this data-generating process. Which distribution would you use instead? No calculations necessary.
