When three or more orders are placed, one (1) technical expert from PLDT, the country's broadband and digital services provider, is assigned to the city. For a 100,000-person city, supposed orders follow a Poisson distribution with a mean of 0.25 each week. If your city has a population of 800,000 people, what is the likelihood that a technical expert would be needed after a week? a. 0.3322 b. 0.2323 c. 0.3233 d. 0.2233

The following table is a frequency distribution for road rage incidents during one week: Sunday: 5, Monday: 5, Tuesday: 11, Wednesday: 12, Thursday: 11, Friday: 18, Saturday: 7 At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence that road-rage incidents are more likely to occur on some days than on others?

58% of all statistics classes require a statistical calculator and 30% require the use of a computer that has statistical software. Of the classes that require a statistical calculator, 16% also require the use of a computer. If a statistics course is selected at random find: (round to 4 decimal places where possible) a. P(Statistical Calculator) = b. P(Statistical Software) = c. P(Require a Statistical Calculator and Statistical Software) = d. P(Require a Statistical Calculator GIVEN Require Statistical Software) =
When two births are randomly selected, the sample space for genders is bb, bg. gb, and gg. Assume that those four outcomes are equally likely. Construct a table that describes the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of girls from two births. Does the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of girls in two births? Does the result suggest that a sample proportion an unbiased estimator of a population proportion? For the entire population, assume the probability of having a boy is the probability of having a girl is , and this is not affected by how many boys or girls have previously been born. 2 Determine the probabilities of each sample proportion.

A TA in statistics thinks that the format of the conferences and the timing of the assignments may affect students' assignment marks (out of 10). He decided to design three conferences with a different format: (1) with lecturing, (2) with demonstrating problems, and (3) with involving students in active problem-solving. Twelve students attended one of the conferences (four in each format) and asked to submit their assignments at week 3. Another twelve students attended one of the conferences but asked to submit their assignments at week 5. The data are tabled below: Assignment Week 3 Week 5 Lecture 6,7,5,7 5,5,4,5 Format Demo problems 7,8,8,9 6,7,7,6 Active problems 9,10,10,10 8,9,9,10 Note: ΣΣΣx=1385 Perform the ANOVA test and table the results, stating all critical values. State and explain what should be the follow-up analysis after the overall F-test if any (NO calculation but just explain).
A warehouse manager wants to know if there is an association between the shift worked and being on time for work. To investigate, he selects a random sample of 70 workers and classifies each one according to the shift they worked most recently and whether they were on time for work. He was unable to classify a substantial number of people as being on time, so he classified those individuals as unknown. The data are displayed in the table. The manager would like to know if these data provide convincing evidence of an association between the shift worked and being on time in the large population of all workers at this warehouse. The random and 10% conditions are met. Is the Large Counts condition met? Yes, the smallest expected count is 5, so all expected counts are at least 5. Yes, the smallest expected count is 8.54, so all expected counts are at least 5. No, the smallest expected count is 2.56, so the expected counts are not all at least 5. No, the smallest expected count is…
A fitness course claims that it can improve an individual's physical ability. To test the effect of a physical fitness course on one's physical ability, the number of sit-ups that a person could do in one minute, both before and after the course, was recorded. Ten individuals are randomly selected to participate in the course. The results are displayed in the following table. Can it be concluded, from the data, that participation in the physical fitness course resulted in significant improvement? Let d=(number of sit-ups that can be done after taking the course)−(number of sit-ups that can be done prior to taking the course)d=(number of sit-ups that can be done after taking the course)−(number of sit-ups that can be done prior to taking the course). Use a significance level of α=0.05α=0.05 for the test. Assume that the numbers of sit-ups are normally distributed for the population both before and after taking the fitness course. Sit-ups before 3232 4545 2121 5050 3636 4444 2626 2020…
16) The university police department must write, on average, five tickets per day to keep department revenues at budgeted levels. Suppose the number of tickets written per day follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of 4.5 tickets per day. Interpret the value of the mean. A) If we sampled all days, the arithmetic average number of tickets written would be 4.5 tickets per day. B) The number of tickets that is written most often is 4.5 tickets per day. C) Half of the days have less than 4.5 tickets written and half of the days have more than 4.5 tickets written. D) The mean has no interpretation since 0.5 ticket can never be written.
According to Pew Research Center surveys, 12% of American adults did not own a cell phone in 2012. Suppose Verizon Wireless would like to test if this percentage has recently changed. A recent random sample of 280 American adults was selected, and it was found that 29 of them did not own a cell phone. Using ? = 0.10, answer the following: a. What type of test will be used and what distribution? b. Based on this sample and using the 6 hypothesis steps, what conclusions can Verizon Wireless make about this population?
A study from 2014 found that adults in the US spend an average of 11 hours per day watching, reading, listening to or simply interacting with media. Researchers at UCLA suspect students spend less time engaging media. They grouped UCLA students by class section, randomly selected 20 class sections, and administered a survey to each student in those randomly selected class sections. The following data represents the mean time (in hours) per day spent engaging media for each of the randomly selected classes: 9.5 11.5 6.0 7.5 8 9.5 10.5 11 12 8.2 5 9.5 8.2 9.3 10.8 11 13 8.6 9.5 10.5 What would be the 99% Confidence Interval for mean time (in hours) spent per day engaging media for UCLA students. Do this "by hand", using appripriate symbols/formulas/tables.
