The weight of goats at a farm is normally distributed with a mean of 60 kg. A truck used to transport goats can only acommodate not more than 650 kg.If goats are selected at random from the population, what is the probability that the total weight exceeds the maximum weight?

The larger the standard deviation of a distribution, the more heterogeneous the scores in that distribution. Is this statement true?explain.

A population consists of the numbers 2, 4, 5, 9, 10. List all possible sample size of 3 from this population without replacement and determine the mean of each sample.

  1. The probability that a student must stop at any one traffic light going to NUST from Havana is 0.2. There are 15 traffic lights on the Journey.

a) what is the probability that a student will stop at exactly two of the 15 set of traffic lights?

b) what is the probability that a student will stop at 3 or more of the 15 set of traffic lights?


A teacher realizes that his students' marks on a statistic test are normally distributed with a mean of 62 and a standard deviation of 15. If the teacher wishes to assign minimum marks for grade B is referring to the top 30 per cent of the students' marks in the class, how many marks are required to get a minimum mark for grade B?

1.suppose random variable Y=X1+X2 is made of X.

a) show P(Y=4) = 0.1

b) complete probability distribution table for Y

y      |  2   | 3    | 4   | 5  | 6    | 8 |
P(Y=y) | 0.01 | 0.04 |0.10 |    | 0.25 |   |

c) find P(1.5<Y<3.5)
