Chapter 15: Q4P (page 775)

Assuming a normal distribution, find the limits渭卤hfor a 90%confidence interval; for a 95%confidence interval; for a 99%confidence interval. What percent confidence interval is渭卤1.3蟽?Hints: See Section8, Example3, and Problems,8.7,8.22 and8.23.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The upper and lower limits are mentioned below:

渭卤1.645蟽渭卤1.96蟽渭卤2.579蟽

And percent confidence interval,

I=82.5%

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

The value of mean and standard deviation.

渭=0蟽=1

02

Definition of Binomial Distribution.

The expected value (also known as expectation) is a generalisation of the weighted average in probability theory.

03

Calculate upper and lower limits for total area of 0.9. 

Calculate limits for confidence interval of90%.

h=1.645渭鈭�1.645蟽渭+1.645蟽

04

Calculate upper and lower limits for total area of 0.95. 

Calculate limits for confidence interval of95%.

h=1.96渭鈭�1.96蟽渭+1.96蟽

05

Calculate upper and lower limits for total area of 0.99.

Calculate limits for confidence interval of99%.

h=2.579渭鈭�2.579蟽渭+2.579蟽

06

Calculate percent confidence interval. 

Use conditions,

渭=0蟽=1h=1.36渭卤1.36蟽

Calculate percent confidence interval.

I=82.5%

Hence, the upper and lower limits are mentioned below:

渭卤1.645蟽渭卤1.96蟽渭卤2.579蟽

And percent confidence interval,

I=82.5%

Given a family of two children (assume boys and girls equally likely, that is, probability for each), what is the probability 1/2 that both are boys? That at least one is a girl? Given that at least one is a girl, what is the probability that both are girls? Given that the first two are girls, what is the probability that an expected third child will be a boy?

Set up an appropriate sample space for each of Problems 1.1 to 1.10 and use itto solve the problem. Use either a uniform or non-uniform sample space or try both.

In a box there are 2 white, 3 black, and 4 red balls. If a ball is drawn at random,what is the probability that it is black? That it is not red?

Set up an appropriate sample space for each of Problems 1.1 to 1.10 and use itto solve the problem. Use either a uniform or non-uniform sample space or try both.

Three coins are tossed; what is the probability that two are heads and one tails? That the first two are heads and the third tails? If at least two are heads, what is the probability that all are heads?

(a) Acandy vending machine is out of order. The probability that you get a candybar (with or without return of your money) is12, the probability that you getyour money back (with or without candy) is 12, and the probability that youget both the candy and your money back is 112. What is the probability that youget nothing at all? Suggestion: Sketch a geometric diagram similar to Figure 3.1, indicate regions representing the various possibilities and their probabilities; then set up a four-point sample space and the associated probabilities of the points.

(b) Suppose you try again to get a candy bar as in part (a). Set up the 16-point

sample space corresponding to the possible results of your two attempts tobuy a candy bar, and find the probability that you get two candy bars (andno money back); that you get no candy and lose your money both times; thatyou just get your money back both times.

Three coins are tossed; x = number of heads minus number of tails.
