An appliance store receives a shipment of 30 microwave ovens, 5 of which are (unknown
to the manager) defective. The store manager selects 4 ovens at random, without
replacement, and tests to see if they are defective. Let X = number of defectives
found. Calculate the pmf and cdf of X and plot the cdf.

At α = 0.01, check whether the shoe number differs between male and female students. In the attachment, you send only PART of the data, what the data looks like.
Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person
undergoing surgery. Plasma volume is influenced by the overall health and physical activity of an individual. Suppose that a random
sample of 48 male firefighters are tested and that they have a plasma volume sample mean of x = 37.5 ml/kg (milliliters plasma
per kilogram body weight). Assume that σ = 8.00 ml/kg for the distribution of blood plasma.
When finding an 99% confidence interval, what is the critical value for confidence level? (Give your answer to two decimal places.)

- One of the ways in which doctors try to determine how long a single dose of pain reliever will provide relief is to measure the drug’s half-life, which is the length of time it takes for one-half of the dose to be eliminated from the body. A report of the National Institutes of Health states that the standard deviation of the half-life of the pain reliever oxycodone is σ = 1.43 hours. Assume that a sample of 25 patients is given the drug, and the sample standard deviation of the half-lives was s = 1.5 hours. Assume the population is normally distributed. Can you conclude that the true standard deviation is greater than the value reported by the National Institutes of Health?arrow_forwardTotal plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery.

- Calculate the relative frequency P(E) using the given information. Eight hundred adults are polled, and 720 of them support universal health-care coverage. E is the event that an adult supports universal health-care coverage. Calculate the relative frequency P(E) using the given information. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) A die is rolled 80 times with the following result: 1 and 2 never come up, 3 and 4 each come up 25 times, and 5 and 6 each come up 15 times.

- A diet center wanted to test three different methods for losing weight to determine if the average weight loss (reported in pounds/week) for each method is the same. The results for the three methods are tabulated below. Given that there is a significant difference between the three methods, use the Tukey test to determine if there is a significant difference between each pair of methods. Let a=0.05.

The physician set up a study to track daily smoking consumption. In the study, the patients were given a placebo patch that did not contain nicotine for 4 weeks, then a nicotine patch for the following 4 weeks. Test to see if there was a difference in the average smoker's daily cigarette consumption using α = 0.01.
