The lifetime, in years, of a type of small electric motor operating under adverse conditions is T ~ Γ(6, 3.6). Whenever the motor fails, it is replaced with another of the same type. Find the probability that fewer than 6 motors fail within one year.

A random sample of 80 poultry farms of one variety gave an average production of 240 eggs per bird. Another random sample of 50 poultry farms of another variety gave an average production of 195 eggs per bird. At a=0.05 is there sufficient evidence to support that there is a significant difference between the egg production of the two varieties of birds. Assume o1 =18 eggs and o2=15 eggs
A researcher claims that a post-lunch nap decreases the amount of time it takes males to sprint 20 meters after a night with only 4 hours of sleep. The table shows the amounts of time (in seconds) it took for 10 males to sprint 20 meters after a night with only 4 hours of sleep when they did not take a post-lunch nap and when they did take a post-lunch nap. At α=0.10, is there enough evidence to support the researcher's claim? Assume the samples are random and dependent, and the population is normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
You are conducting quality control for a company that manufactures LED displays. The factory you are assessing is supposed to have a manufacturing defect rate of 1 in 100 LED displays. As part of your assessment, you want to verify this defect rate by analyzing a random sample of LED displays. You are planning to randomly sample 1500 displays from this factory and observe how many of them contain manufacturing defects. Let Zi be equal to 1 if the i’th display has a defect and 0 otherwise, for i = 1,...,1500. (a) What is the statistic that you will use to estimate the defect rate for this factory? How do you compute it using Z1, Z2, . . . , Z1500? (b) Assuming that the true defect rate for this factory is in fact 1 in 100 displays, can we approximate the sampling distribution of the statistic that you selected in part (a) using a normal distribution? Please state and check the requirements for applying the approximation, and identify the mean and standard deviation of the normal…
5. You invest to maximize utility: U = a, -A o. You have an information ratio of 0.5, and a risk aversion parameter, 2, of 12 (in decimal units per year). So, for example, an alpha of 3%, and a risk of 5%, would lead to utility of zero.

For 50 randomly selected speed dates, attractiveness ratings by males of their female date partners (x) are recorded along with the attractiveness ratings by females of their male date partners (y); the ratings range from 1 to 10. The 50 paired ratings yield x=6.3, y=6.0, r=−0.257, P-value=0.072, and y=7.92−0.300x. Find the best predicted value of y (attractiveness rating by female of male) for a date in which the attractiveness rating by the male of the female is x=3. Use a 0.05 significance level. The best predicted value of y when x=3 is? (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
A problem that occurs with certain types of mining is that some byproducts tend to be mildlyradioactive, and these products sometimes get into our freshwater supply. The EPA has issuedregulations concerning a limit on the amount of radioactivity in supplies of drinking water.Particularly, the maximum level for naturally occurring radiation is 5 picocuries per liter ofwater (on average). A random sample of 24 water specimens from a city’s water supply gave ̄x= 4.61 and s = 0.87. Do these data provide sufficient evidence to indicate that the meanlevel of radiation is safe (below the maximum level set by the EPA)? Test usingα= 0.05.
