The probability of a success (winning a match) is 46. So, the mean of the binomial distribution B(30,46) is: μ=(30)(46)=20 21.Using the same scenario, what is the standard deviation for the number of matches that they win in the tournament? The Stomping Elephants volleyball team plays 30 matches in a week-long tournament. On average, they win 4 out of every 6matches. Select the correct answer below: 26 6.67−−−−√ 6.67 20−−√ 20 40 The standard deviation of a binomial distribution is the square root of the variance. The variance is the product of n, the total number of repeated trials or events, p, the probability of a success, and q, which is (1−p). variance = σ2=np(1−p) standard deviation = variance−−−−− −−√ In this scenario, the number of trials is 30 (the total number of matches played), which is n. The probability of a success (winning a match) is 46. So, the value for (1−p) is 26. The variance is the product of these values.

If a sample of 100 graphics cards manufactured using the new process has a less than 10% chance of having 3 or more defective graphics cards, then the manufacturer will switch to the new process. Otherwise, the manufacturer will stay with its existing process. If the probability of a defective graphics card using the new process is 0.9%, will the manufacturer switch to the new production process? Select the correct answer below: Yes, because the probability of having 3 or more defective graphics cards is greater than 0.10. Yes, because the probability of having 3 or more defective graphics cards is less than 0.10. No, because the probability of having 3 or more defective graphics cards is less than 0.10. No, because the probability of having 3 or more defective graphics cards is greater than 0.10. (Note that this is a cumulative binomial probability. In this case, we want to find the probability of 3 or more successes, inclusive, where a success is one of the graphics cards being defective. The probability of having 2 or fewer defective graphics cards is the complement of the probability of having 3 or more defective graphics cards.

A poll is conducted to determine if political party has any association with whether a person is for or against a certain bill. In the poll, 214 out of 432 Democrats and 246 out of 421 Republicans are in favor of the bill. Assuming political party has no association, the probability of these results being by chance is calculated to be 0.01. Interpret the results of the calculation. We can expect that 246 out of every 421 Republicans are in support of this bill. We cannot say the results are statistically significant at the 0.05 level.

The mean score of the students who attended was 86%, whereas the mean score of the students who didn’t attend the review was 79%. The difference in the mean scores is significant at the 0.05 level, assuming the review session does not associate with a higher exam score. Determine the meaning of this significance level. Select the correct answer below: It is not unusual to see the mean exam score of 120 students be 79% because the testing abilities of students vary. We expect the mean score of a group of 30 students who attend a review session to be 86%. At the 0.05 level of significance, attendance of the review session is associated with a higher exam score. The review session is helpful to students at the 0.01 level of significance. 64.According to a recent poll, 40.5% of people aged 25 years or older in the state of Massachusetts have a bachelor’s degree or higher. The poll also reported that 30.0% of people aged 25 years or older in the state of Delaware have a bachelor’s degree or higher. The poll sampled 354 residents of Massachusetts and 210 residents of Delaware. The data was calculated to be significant at the 0.013 level. Determine the meaning of this significance level.

It is not unusual to see 30.0% of a sample of 210 residents of Delaware have bachelor’s degrees because level of education varies. It is certain that more residents of Massachusetts have bachelor’s degrees than do residents of Delaware. We can expect about 40.5% of any group of 354 Massachusetts residents to have a bachelor’s degree or higher. 65. A survey was conducted to see whether age has an association with the belief that a master’s degree or higher provides an advantage in one’s career. Of the 524 adults between the ages of 22 and 25 surveyed, 56% believed that a master’s degree has value in a person’s career path.

Assuming age is not associated with this belief, the probability of the data being the result of chance is calculated to be 0.21. Interpret this calculation. Select the correct answer below: We can expect 56% of all adults between the ages of 22 and 25 to believe a master’s degree or higher provides an advantage in one’s career. The data is statistically significant at the 0.05 level of significance in showing that age has an association with the belief that a master’s degree or higher provides an advantage in one’s career. Age does not have any association with the belief that a master’s degree or higher provides an advantage in one’s career. The data are not statistically significant at the 0.05 level of significance in showing that age has an association with the belief that a master’s degree or higher provides an advantage in one’s career. 66. A farmer claims that the average mass of an apple grown in his orchard is 100g. To test this claim, he measures the mass of 150 apples that are grown in his orchard and determines the average mass per apple to be 98g. The results are calculated to be statistically significant at the 0.01 level. What is the correct interpretation of this calculation? Select the correct answer below: The data are not statistically significant at the 0.05 level. The mean mass of any 150 apples grown in the farmer's orchard is 98g. At the 0.01 level of significance, the mean mass of the apples grown in the farmer's orchard is different from 100g. At the 0.01 level of significance, the mean mass of the apples grown in the farmer's orchard is MATH 225N MATHWeek 4 Probability Questions and answers 100% CORRECT LATEST UPDATE 2021/2022 UPGRADED/ RATED A+ Chamberlain College of Nursing MATH 225N MATHWeek 4 Probability Questions and answers 100% CORRECT LATEST UPDATE 2021/2022 UPGRADED/ RATED A+ Chamberlain College of Nursing Select the correct answer below: a particular result of an experiment one specific execution of an experiment a planned activity carried out under controlled conditions the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment 71.Beth is performing an experiment to check if a die is fair.
