Chapter 7: Q.AP2.20 - Cumulative AP Practise Test (page 438)

AP2.20 A grocery chain runs a prize game by giving each customer a ticket that may win a prize when the box is scratched off. Printed on the ticket is a dollar value ( \( 500, \) 100, \(25) or the statement "This ticket is not a winner." Monetary prizes can be redeemed for groceries at the store. Here is the probability distribution of the amount won on a randomly selected ticket:

Which of the following are the mean and standard deviation, respectively, of the winnings?

a. \) 15.00, \( 2900.00

b.\) 15.00, \( 53.85

c. \) 15.00, \( 26.93

d. \) 156.25,\( 53.85

e. \) 156.25, $ 26.93

Short Answer

Expert verified

b.$ 15.00, $ 53.85

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

Formula used:

渭=鈭�x脳p(x)蟽2=鈭�(x-渭)2脳p(x)蟽=蟽2

02

Explanation for correct option

渭=500脳0.01+100脳0.05+25脳0.20+0脳0.74=15

Variance

蟽2=(500-15)2脳0.01+(100-15)2脳0.05+(25-15)2脳0.20+(0-15)2脳0.74=2900

Standard deviation

蟽=2900=53.85

Hence, the correct option is (b)

03

Explanation for incorrect option

a. $ 15.00, $ 2900.00 is not the answer.

c. $ 15.00, $ 26.93 is not the answer.

d. $ 156.25,$ 53.85 is not the answer.

e. $ 156.25, $ 26.93 is not the answer.

Songs on an iPod David's iPod has about 10,000 songs. The distribution of the play times for these songs is heavily skewed to the right with a mean of 225 seconds and a standard deviation of 60 seconds. Suppose we choose an SRS of 10 songs from this population and calculate the mean play time x-x炉of these songs.

a. Identify the mean of the sampling distribution of x-x炉.

b. Calculate and interpret the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x-路x炉. Verify that the 10%condition is met.

Sample medians List all 10possible SRSs of size n=3, calculate the median quiz score for each sample, and display the sampling distribution of the sample median on a dotplot.

Airline passengers get heavier In response to the increasing weight of airline passengers, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) told airlines to assume that passengers average 190 pounds in the summer, including clothes and carry-on baggage. But passengers vary, and the FAA did not specify a standard deviation. A reasonable standard deviation is 35 pounds. A commuter plane carries 30 passengers. Find the probability that the total weight of 30 randomly selected passengers exceeds 6000 pounds.

What does the CLT say? Asked what the central limit theorem says, a student replies, "As you take larger and larger samples from a population, the variability of the sampling distribution of the sample mean decreases." Is the student right? Explain your answer.

A study of voting chose 663 registered voters at random shortly after an election. Of these, 72%said they had voted in the election. Election records show that only 56%of registered voters voted in the election. Which of the following statements is true?

a. 72%is a sample; 56%is a population.

b. 72%and 56%are both statistics.

c. 72%is a statistic and 56%is a parameter.

d. 72%is a parameter and 56%is a statistic.

e. 72%and 56%are both parameters.
