- A box contains 14 large marbles and 10 small marbles. Each marble is either green or white. 9 of the large marbles are green, and 4 of the small marbles are white. If a marble is randomly selected from the box, what is the probability that it is small or white?

At a shooting range, instructors can determine if a shooter is consistently missing the target because of the gun sight or because of the shooter's ability. If a gun's sight is off, the variance of the distances between the shots and the center of the shot pattern will be small (even if the shots are not in the center of the target). A student claims that it is the sight that is off, not his aim, and wants the instructor to confirm his claim. If a skilled shooter fires a gun at a target multiple times, the distances between the shots and the center of the shot pattern, measured in centimeters (cm), will have a variance of less than 0.33. After the student shoots 28 shots at the target, the instructor calculates that the distances between his shots and the center of the shot pattern, measured in cm, have a variance of 0.25. Does this evidence support the student's claim that the gun's sight is off? Use a 0.025 level of significance.

He surveys a simple random sample of 279 recent articles published by reputable mathematics research journals and finds that 123 of these articles have US authors. Does this evidence support the mathematics chairperson's claim that the percentage is no longer 38 % ? Use a 0.02 level of significance. Compute the value of the test statistic.
