13.11 Random numbers. If you ask a computer to generate “random numbers" between 0 and 5, you will get observations from a uniform distribution. Figure 13.12 shows the density curve for a uniform distribution. This curve takes the constant value 0.2 between 0 and 5 and is zero outside that range. Use this density curve to answer these questions. a. Why is the total area under the curve equal to 1? b. The curve is symmetric. What is the value of the mean and median? c. What percentage of the observations lie between 4 and 5? d. What percentage of the observations lie between 1.5 and 3? height = 0,20 Moore/Notz, Statistics: Concepts and Controversies, 10e, 0 2020 W. H. Freeman and Company Figure 13.12 The density curve of a uniform distribution, for Exercise 13.11. Observations from this distribution are spread "at random" between 0 and 5.

Suppose that 95% of the bags of certain fertilizer mix weigh between 49 and 53 pounds. Averages of three succesive bags were plotted, and 47.5% of these were observed to lie between 51 and X pounds. Estimate the value of X. State assumptions you make and say whether these assumptions are likely to be true for this example.

Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of u = 100 and a standard deviation o = 20. Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has an 1Q less than 128. Click to view page 1 of the table Click to view page 2 of the table. The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 128 is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to four decimal places as needed.)
