Out of 3,000 employees of a certain company, 1,800 are men. The management decided that on the occasion of the company's anniversary celebration, it will give special rewards to 10 randomly drawn employees. What is the probability that the sample will be - 68-95-99.7 rule
Assume the resting pulse rates for a sample of individuals are normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 15. Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to find the following quantities. a. Percentage of pulse rates less than 70 b. Percentage of puls - Significance 61784 Determine the interval estimate of the standard deviation of the meantime to find a parking space. We found out from a survey of 200 residents that the average time is one hour and 25 minutes, and the standard deviation is 15 minutes. Use a 1% significanc
- Confidence 61774 What is the smallest number of men we would have to choose to estimate the mean height of men with an accuracy of +, - 0.5cm, and 95% confidence, assuming a standard deviation of 8cm?

Determine the probability of a random event out of 10 randomly selected bridge cards. There will be at least three aces. Note This is a team game, with 52 cards in the deck, of which four aces. - Pass a test
The student has to pass a test that contains ten questions. For each of them, he chooses one of 5 answers, with just one being correct. The student did not prepare for the test, so he randomly chose the answers. What are the probabilities that the student - Compare distributions
Which would you expect to be larger, the standard deviation of 5 random numbers picked from 1 to 47 in the California Super Lotto (CSL - write 1 as a result), or the standard deviation of 5 random numbers picked from 1 to 69 in the multi-state PowerBall L - A student 2 A student randomly selected 225 college students and asked whether they had eaten breakfast that morning before coming to campus. Fifty-seven students were at least 25 years old, and 30 had breakfast that morning. Of the 168 students younger than 25, 82 h
- Population variance
60% of students at a California community college will transfer to a college in the CSU system. The number of students in a sample who will transfer follows a binomial distribution. If eight students are randomly selected, find the population variance σ² - Sample Proportion
In a California community college, 60% of students will transfer to a college in the CSU system. The number of students in a sample who will transfer follows a binomial distribution. Four hundred students are randomly selected from the college, and 224 of - Error rate The exam has six questions. Students have an error rate of 20% and can have a maximum of 1 question wrong. What is the probability that they will succeed?
- Germination 55283
The supplier of spruce seeds for our nursery declares a germination rate of 80% for his goods. Verify this statement based on an experiment in which only 70 seeds germinated out of 100 randomly selected seeds. - Distribution 55071
Five men drive to work together; 2 have a Škoda car, and the others have an Opel, Seat, and Hyundai. They always randomly choose which car to drive. Each of the five cars has an equal chance. The random variable X determines how many days the same charact
- Suppose 4
Suppose that 14% of all steel shafts produced by a certain process are nonconforming but can be reworked (rather than having to be scrapped). Consider a random sample of 200 shafts, and let X denote the number among these that are nonconforming and can be - Rich retirement Healthcare issues are receiving much attention in both academic and political arenas.
