Suppose that in a small village about 90% of the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry. Let n=1, 2, 3,… represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village. Write the expression for the probability distribution of the random variable n.
Employers want to know which days of the week employees are absent in a five-day workweek. Most employers would like to believe that employees are absent equally during the week. Suppose a random sample of managers were asked which day of the week they had the highest number of employee absences. The results were distributed as follows: The number of Absences on Monday was 17 The number of Absences on Tuesday was 17 The number of Absences on Wednesday was 4 The number of Absences on Thursday was 6 The number of Absences on Friday was 11 What is the Test Statistic to test the Hull Hypothesis that The absent days occur with equal frequencies (that is, they fit a uniform distribution) against the alternative Hypothesis that the absent days occur with unequal frequencies (that is, they do not fit a uniform distribution)?
