- Level of significance
At a certain college, it is estimated that 25% of the students have cars on campus. Does this seem to be a valid estimate if, in a random sample of 90 college students, 28 are found to have cars? Use a 0.05 level of significance. - Unemployment rate Over the last 16 years, the country's unemployment rate has changed according to the following frequency table: years of unemployment: 2 5 2 3 3 1 unemployment rate: 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 in % (percent). Determine the two-sided confidence interval for the var

The meadow behind FLD was divided into 100 equally large parts. Subsequently, it was found that there were no daisies in ten of these parts. Estimate the total number of daisies in the meadow. Assume that daisies are randomly distributed in the meadow. - Three sigma rule
The height of trees in a given stand is known to be a quantity with a normal probability distribution with a mean value of 15 m and a variance of 5 m². Determine the interval in which there will be tree heights in such a stand with a probability of 90%
- A machine
A machine produces steel rods of normally distributed length, the mean length and the standard deviation being 50.0 cm and 0.5 cm, respectively. The rods do not conform to safety standards if they are either shorter than 49.1 cm or longer than 50.7 cm in - Probability 47373
