uppose that when a new machine is functioning well, 92% of the items produced are non-defective. Assume that a random sample of 5 parts produced on the machine is selected and we are interested in the number of defective parts found. What are the conditions for this experiment to be considered a binomial experiment?

It is known that 51% of American college students fail a course during their freshman year. A university journal club randomly samples 9 upperclassmen and asks them if they failed a course during their freshman year, 3 say they have. Suppose a hypothesis test is to be conducted to determine if the proportion of students who failed a course during their freshman year is less than 0.51. The random variable is X = the number of students in the sample that failed a course during their freshman year. What values of X are considered "as or more unusual" than the observed count if the null hypothesis is true? X ≥ 3 3 ≤ X ≤ 4.59 X ≥ 4.59 X ≤ 4.59 X ≤ 3
The main exit gate has an outflow rate of 20 cars per minute which can be modeled as a Poisson Random Process. Suppose the south gate is also opened and given that cars choose it 34% of the time. What will be the new average time it takes for a car to exit the main gate? (Use 3 sf, in seconds)
A newspaper story claims that more houses are purchased by singles now than singles 55 years ago. To test this claim, two studies were conducted on the buying habits of singles over the past 55 years. In the first study, 500500 house purchases in the current year were randomly selected and 100100 of those were made by singles. In the second study, again 500500 house purchases were randomly selected from 55 years ago and 8181 of those were made by single people. Test the newspaper’s claim using a 0.020.02 level of significance. Is there sufficient evidence to support the newspaper’s claim? Let singles now be Population 1 and let singles 55 years ago be Population 2. Step 2 of 3 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

One cable company claims that it has excellent customer service. In fact, the company advertises that a technician will arrive within 55 minutes after a service call is placed. One frustrated customer believes this is not accurate, claiming that it takes over 55 minutes for the cable technician to arrive. The customer asks a simple random sample of 4 other cable customers how long it has taken for the cable technician to arrive when they have called for one. The sample mean for this group is 62.1 minutes with a standard deviation of 8.3 minutes. Assume that the population distribution is approximately normal. Test the customer’s claim at the 0.05 level of significance. Step 2 of 3 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

The FAA is interested in knowing if there is a difference in the average number of on-time arrivals for four of the major airlines. The FAA believes that the number of on-time arrivals varies by airport, therefore, a randomized block design is used for the study. To control for this variation, they randomly select 100100 flights for each of the major airlines at each of four randomly selected airports and record the number of on-time flights. Can the FAA conclude that there is a significant difference among the average number of on-time arrivals for the four major airlines? The results of the study are as follows. Average Number of On-Time Arrivals Airport Airline A Airline B Airline C Airline D Airport A 9090 8282 8080 8383 Airport B 8282 7070 7474 7979 Airport C 8787 8484 7676 8888 Airport D 9090 7979 7979 9090 Copy DataANOVA Source of Variation SSSS dfdf MSMS Rows 181.6875181.6875 33 60.562560.5625 Columns 278.6875278.6875 33 92.895892.8958 Error…
A box contains 8 balls. One is numbered 2, two are numbered 3, one is numbered 4, and four are numbered 5. The balls are mixed and one is selected at random. After a ball is selected, its number is recorded. Then it is replaced. If the experiment is repeated many times, find the variance of the numbers on the balls. (Round off your final answer to 2 decimal places).
One common disease among pediatric patients is streptococcal pharyngitis (strep throat). If a pediatric patient comes in to the pediatricians feeling ill, there is a 26% chance that they have strep throat. A doctor sees 7 pediatric patients on a particular day (assume these patients are independent). Consider the random variable is a binomial random variable such that X = number of pediatric patients with strep throat. What is the expected number of pediatric patients with strep throat?
