Chapter 5: Q. 27 (page 313)

Suppose this player attempts 10shots in a game and makes only 3of them. Does this provide convincing evidence that she is less than a 47%shooter?

a. Yes, because 3/10(30%) is less than 47%

b. Yes, because she never made 47%of her shots in the simulation.

c. No, because it is plausible (believable) that she would make 3or fewer shots by chance alone.

d. No, because the simulation was only repeated 25times.

e. No, because more than half of the simulated results were less than47%

Short Answer

Expert verified

When did you leave? The National Household Travel Survey gathers data on the time of day when people begin a trip in their car or other vehicle. Choose a trip at random and record the time at which the trip started. Here is an assignment of probabilities for the outcomes :

a. What probability should replace 鈥�?鈥� in the table? Why?

b. Find the probability that the chosen trip did not begin between 9A.M. and 12:59P.M.

A total of 25repetitions of the simulation were performed. The number of makes in each set of 10simulated shots was recorded on the dotplot. What is the approximate probability that a 47%shooter makes 5or more shots in 10attempts?

a.5/10

b.3/10

c.12/25

d. 3/25

Cell phonesThe Pew Research Center asked a random sample of 2024adult cell-phone owners from the United States their age and which type of cell phone they own: iPhone, Android, or other (including non-smartphones). The two-way table summarizes the data.

Suppose we select one of the survey respondents at random. What鈥檚 the probability that:

a. The person is not age 18to 34and does not own an iPhone?

b. The person is age 18to 34or owns an iPhone?
