Explanation Given: Two box having white and black ball and drawn one ball from the each box and the color of the balls from both boxes are recorded in order. Calculation: Consider the two boxes containing colored and white balls. Let W 1 be the event of drawing a white ball from box 1 and W 2 be the event of drawing a white ball from box 2 . These events are independent. Since box 1 contains 3 white balls in total of 2 + 3 = 5 balls, the probability that ball drawn from box 1 is white, that is P ( W 1 ) = 3 5 Since box 2 contains 2 white balls in total of 4 + 2 = 6 balls, the probability that ball drawn from box 2 is white, that is To determine b. To find: The probability at least one black ball. To determine c. To find: The probability at most one black ball. To determine d. To find: The probability for one ball is black and one ball is white.

A horse trainer teaches horses to jump by using two methods of instruction. Horses being taught by method A have a lead horse that accompanies each jump. Horses being taught by method B have no lead horse. The table shows the number of training sessions required before each horse performed the jumps properly. Method A 25 23 39 29 37 20 Method B 41 21 46 42 24 44 Method A 45 35 27 31 34 49 Method B 26 43 47 32 40 Use a rank-sum test with a5% level of significance to test the claim that there is no difference between the training sessions distributions. If the value of the sample test statistic R, the rank-sum, is 150, calculate the P-value. Round your answer to four decimal places.

A data processing company has a training program for new salespeople. After completing the training program, each trainee is ranked by his or her instructor. After a year of sales, the same class of trainees is again ranked by a company supervisor according to net value of the contracts they have acquired for the company. The results for a random sample of 11 salespeople trained in the last year follow, where x is rank in training class and y is rank in sales after 1 year. Lower ranks mean higher standing in class and higher net sales. Person 1 2 3 4 5 6 x rank 8 11 2 4 5 3 y rank 7 10 1 3 2 4 Person 7 8 9 10 11 x rank 7 9 10 1 6 y rank 8 11 9 6 5 Using a 1% level of significance, test the claim that the relation between x and y is monotone (either increasing or decreasing). Verify that the Spearman rank correlation coefficient . This implies that the P-value lies between 0.002 and 0.01. State…

Sand and clay studies were conducted at a site in California. Twelve consecutive depths, each about 15 cm deep, were studied and the following percentages of sand in the soil were recorded. 34.4 27.1 30.8 28.0 32.2 27.6 32.8 25.2 31.4 33.5 24.7 28.4 Converting this sequence of numbers to a sequence of symbols A and B, where A indicates a value above the median and B denotes a value below the median gives ABABABABAABB. Test the sequence for randomness about the median with a 5% level of significance. Verify that the number of runs is 10. What is the upper critical value c2?
