Chapter 6: Q.3.1 (page 373)

A large auto dealership keeps track of sales and leases agreements made during each hour of the day. Let 蠂= the number of cars sold and 纬= the number of cars leased during the 铿乺st hour of business on a randomly selected Friday. Based on previous records, the probability distributions of 蠂and 纬are as follows:

顿别铿乶别D=X-Y

Find and interpret 渭D.

Short Answer

Expert verified

From the given information, it is expected that0.4 more of the cars would be sold out than leasing.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

It is given in the question that,

渭蠂=1.1,蟽蠂=0.943

渭纬=0.7,蟽纬=0.64

D=蠂-纬

02

Step 2: Explanation

The mean can be calculated as :

渭D=渭蠂-渭纬=1.1鈭�0.7=0.4

Running a mile A study of 12,000able-bodied male students at the University of Illinois found that their times for the mile run were approximately Normal with mean 7.11minutes and standard deviation 0.74 minute. Choose a student at random from this group and call his time for the mile Y. Find P(Y<6) and interpret the result. Follow the four-step process.

To introduce her class to binomial distributions, Mrs. Desai gives a 10-item, multiple-choice quiz. The catch is, that students must simply guess an answer (A through E) for each question. Mrs. Desai uses her computer's random number generator to produce the answer key so that each possible answer has an equal chance to be chosen. Patti is one of the students in this class.

Let X=the number of Patti's correct guesses.

To get a passing score on the quiz, a student must guess correctly at least 6times. Would you be surprised if Patti earned a passing score? Compute an appropriate probability to support your answer.
