A test consists of 10 questions made of 5 answers with only one correct answer. To pass the test, a student must answer at least 8 questions correctly. (a) If a student guesses on each question, what is the probability that the student passes the test? (b) Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of correct answers. (c) Is it unusual for a student to pass the test by guessing? Explain.
In a group of 40 people, 35% have never been abroad. Two people are selected at random without replacement and are asked about their past travel experience. a. Is this a binomial experiment? Why or why not? What is the probability that in a random sample of 2, no one has been abroad? b. What is the probability that in a random sample of 2, at least one has been abroad?

For a sample of n = 65, the probability of a sample mean being greater than 225 if μ=224 and σ = 3.5 is 0.0102 (Round to four decimal places as needed.)arrow_forward***Please do not just simply copy and paste the other solution for this problem posted on bartleby as that solution does not have all of the parts completed for this problem.

Christchurch, New Zealand experienced a major earthquake on February 22, 2011. It destroyed 100,000 homes. Data were collected on a sample of 300 damaged homes. These data are saved in the file called CIEG315 Homework 4 data.xlsx, which is available on Canvas under Files. A subset of the data is shown in the accompanying table. Two of the variables are qualitative in nature: Wall construction and roof construction. Two of the variables are quantitative: (1) Peak ground acceleration (PGA), a measure of the intensity of ground shaking that the home experienced in the earthquake (in units of acceleration of gravity, g); (2) Damage, which indicates the amount of damage experienced in the earthquake in New Zealand dollars; and (3) Building value, the pre-earthquake value of the home in New Zealand dollars.

This has prompted me to consider whether we should introduce custom flower bouquets in our shop. We need to decide whether to start offering this new product. There are three options: provide a complete selection of custom bouquets for events like birthdays and anniversaries, start small with just a few ready-made flower arrangements, or do not add flowers. There are also three possible outcomes. First, we might see high demand, and the bouquets could sell quickly. Second, we might have medium demand, with a few sold each week. Third, there might be low demand, and the flowers may not sell well, possibly going to waste. These outcomes…arrow_forward
