Question
- Assume that the readings on the thermometers are
normally distributed with the mean of 0° and standard deviation of 1.00°C. Assume 2.5% of the thermometers are rejected because they have readings that are too high and another 2.5% are rejected because they have readings that are too low. Draw a sketch and find the two readings that are cutoff values separating the rejected thermometers from the others.
Which graphs represent the region in which thermometers are rejected?
The cutoff values are ______ degrees.
(Use a comma to separate answers as needed. Round to two decimal places as needed)

- Suppose a researcher collects data on the bacterial contamination, measured in colony-forming unit per milliliter, for both upstream and downstream sections of 35 rivers. The data is plotted with upstream bacterial contamination on the horizontal axis and downstream bacterial contamination on the vertical axis. The Scioto River is an outlier in the ?y‑direction. What must be true about this river? The upstream bacterial contamination for this river is much higher or lower than the rest of the rivers in the data set. The downstream bacterial contamination for this river is much higher or lower than other rivers in the data set that have similar upstream bacterial contamination. This river is an influential observation. The downstream bacterial contamination for this river is much higher or much lower than the rest of the rivers in the data set. The absolute value of the residual of this river is large.arrow_forwardAssume the readings on thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of0degreesC and a standard deviation of 1.00degreesC .Find the probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between negative 2.28 and negative 1.25 and draw a sketch of the region.arrow_forwardA sample of human brain volumes (cm3) is given below.
