There are cards labeled from 1 through 8. One card is drawn randomly from them. Find the expectation of the number drawn. On six draws the outcome is 3,3,6,8,1,2. What is the variance of this experiment?

Jenny works for a local brewing company. She and her team mates try to estimate the Hong Kong consumers’ preference on their beer brand compared to other imported ones. They performed a survey asking if the respondent prefers the company’s brand the most or not. Based on this survey result, they want to decide how much money the company needs to invest on brand promotions in the coming year. This is an important decision for the company, and the management wants to have the probability that the sample proportion p is +/- 3% from the actual proportion p to be very high (i.e., at least 99%). In this case, what is the desirable sample size n for the following two cases? Give the answer in the form of: at least ___ x100 samples. Case i. When the actual proportion is 50%. Case ii. When the actual proportion is 10%. Explain why the sample sizes required to achieve the same accuracy in the two cases are different.
Suppose you did an experiment with 3 groups and 16 subjects per group. The sample variances in the three groups were 14, 16, and 18. Using Tukey's test to compare the means, what would be the two-tailed probability for a comparison of the first mean (14) with the last mean (18)?
Suppose 2 dice are rolled, and suppose the discrete variable x counts the number of 3’s that show up. Plot the probability distribution for x using a bar graph. What is the expected value for the random variable x? What is the variance for the random variable x?
A dowser has correctly located water for a well 1 out of 2 times in Jones County. In Jones County, someone who is just guessing has a 40% chance of locating water for a well. Does this sample provide sufficient evidence that the dowser can locate water and is not just guessing?
