a. Do these data indicate that the training has contributed to their performance?
b. Find the 95 per cent confidence Interval of the training
A random sample of 20 households was selected as part of a study on electricity
usage, and the number of kilowatt-hours (kWh) was recorded for each household in
the sample for the March quarter of 2006. The average usage was found to be
375kWh. In a very large study in the March quarter of the previous year it was
found that the sample standard deviation of the usage was 81kWh. Assuming the
that the usage is normally distributed, provide an expression for calculating a 95%
confidence interval for the mean usage in the March quarter of 2006.

Suppose x is a normal random variable with mean 60 and standard deviation 2. A z score was calculated for a number, and the z score is 3.4. What is x


The American Red Cross says that about 25% of the population has Type B blood. A blood drive is being held at your institute. Suppose that you have selected 20 blood donors in a random way. The probability that exactly 2 of the blood donors have Type B blood is


)A normally distributed population has mean 25.6 and standard deviation 3.3

(a) Find the probability that a single randomly selected element X of the 

population exceeds 30.

(b)Find the mean and standard deviation of X¯ for samples of size 9.

(C)Find the probability that the mean of a sample of size 99 drawn from this 

population exceeds 30.


Distinguish between a parameter and a statistic using relevant examples

Problem:A survey was conducted to determine whether sex and age are related among

stereo shop customers. A total of 200 respondents was taken and the results are

presented below.

Age Male Female Total

Male 60 50 110

Female 80 10 90

Instruction: Conduct a test whether sex and age of stereo shop customers are

independent at 1% level of significance.


A student knows 30 of 35 answers that should be learned for the exam. There two questions in a question card.what is the probability that student doesn't know all two answers?


.In a sample survey ,six estimates were made of the same mean.When the population mean became known ,the following errors were computed:-45,112,-89,-47,-13,26.Are these errors consistent with the hypothesis that the population of errors has a zero mean?Assume that the errors are normally distributed. *
