Chapter 10: Q. 14 (page 668)

Which of the following is not a property of a binomial setting?

(a) Outcomes of different trials are independent.

(b) The chance process consists of a fixed number of trials,n

(c) The probability of success is the same for each trial.

(d) If we use a sample size of 30, the binomial distribution will be approximately Normal.

(e) Each trial can result in either a success or a failure.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(d) If we use a sample size of 30, the binomial distribution will be approximately Normal. This is not a property of a binomial setting.

Step by step solution

01

Introduction

Binomial Distribution is the discrete distribution that has the parameter sample size, n, and probability of getting success, p. The binomial distribution is the sum of n independent Bernoulli's distribution with parameter, p.

02

Explanation

A trial is said to be in a binomial setting if it satisfies the following assumption:

1. Each trial has only one outcome.

2. The probability of success is the same for each trial.

3. Each trial is independent or mutually exclusive.

(a)

The outcomes of each trial are independent. So, it follows the assumption of binomial setting.

(b)

The same size is fixed. So, it follows the property of the binomial setting.

(e)

There are only two possible outcomes that are success or failure. It means each trial is Bernoulli's trial. So, it follows the property of the binomial setting.

(d)

Clearly, it does not follow any assumption of the binomial distribution.

Therefore, (d) is not a property of the binomial setting.

Men versus women The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Young Adult Literacy Assessment Survey interviewed a random sample of 1917people 21to 25years old. The sample contained 840men and 1077women. 49The mean and standard deviation of scores on the NAEP's test of quantitative skills were x炉1=272.40and s1=59.2for the men in the sample. For the women, the results were x炉2=274.73and s2=57.5. Is the difference between the mean scores for men and women significant at the 1% level? Give appropriate statistical evidence to justify your answer.

The Candy Shoppe assembles gift boxes that contain 8 chocolate truffles and two handmade caramel nougats. The truffles have a mean weight of 2 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.5 ounce, and the nougats have a mean weight of 4 ounces with a standard deviation of 1 ounce. The empty boxes weigh 3 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.2 ounce.

(a) Assuming that the weights of the truffles, nougats, and boxes are independent, what are the mean and standard deviation of the weight of a box of candy?

(b) Assuming that the weights of the truffles, nougats, and boxes are approximately Normally distributed, what is the probability that a randomly selected box of candy will weigh more than 30 ounces?

(c) If five gift boxes are randomly selected, what is the probability that at least one of them will weigh more than 30 ounces?

(d) If five gift boxes are randomly selected, what is the probability that the mean weight of the five boxes will be more than 30 ounces?

A study of road rage asked samples of 596men and 523women about their behaviour while driving. Based on their answers, each person was assigned a road rage score on a scale of 0to20. The participants were chosen by random digit dialling of telephone numbers. We suspect that men are more prone to road rage than women. To see if this is true, test these hypotheses for the mean road rage scores of all male and female drivers

(a) H0:渭M=渭FversusH0:渭M>渭F

(b) H0:渭M=渭FversusH0:渭M鈮�渭F

(c) role="math" localid="1650363760526" H0:渭M=渭FversusH0:渭M<渭F

(e)H0:x炉M=x炉FversusH0:x炉M<xF

Quality control (2.2,5.3,6.3)Many manufacturing companies use statistical techniques to ensure that the products they make meet standards. One common way to do this is to take a random sample of products at regular intervals throughout the production shift. Assuming that the process is working properly, the mean measurements from these random samples will vary Normally around the target mean 渭, with a standard deviation of 蟽. For each question that follows, assume that the process is working properly.

(a) What's the probability that at least one of the next two sample means will fall more than 2蟽from the target mean 渭? Show your work.

(b) What's the probability that the first sample mean that is greater than 渭+2蟽is the one from the fourth sample taken?

(c) Plant managers are trying to develop a criterion for determining when the process is not working properly. One idea they have is to look at the 5 most recent sample means. If at least 4of the 5 fall outside the interval(渭-蟽,渭+蟽), they will conclude that the process isn't working. Is this a reasonable criterion? Justify your answer with an appropriate probability.

45. Paying for college College financial aid offices expect students to use summer earnings to help pay for college. But how large are these earnings? One large university studied this question by asking a random sample of 1296students who had summer jobs how much they earned. The financial aid office separated the responses into two groups based on gender. Here are the data in summary form:

(a) How can you tell from the summary statistics that the distribution of earnings in each group is strongly skewed to the right? A graph of the data reveals no outliers. The use of two-sample t procedures is still justified. why?
(b) Construct and interpret a 90%confidence interval for the difference between the mean summer earnings of male and female students at this university.
(c) Interpret the 90%confidence level in the context of this study.
