binomial experiment consists of 500 trials with the probability of success for each trial 0.3. What is the probability of obtaining 175 or more successes? (This binomial experiment easily passes the rule-of-thumb test, as you can check. When computing the probability, adjust the given interval by extending the range by 0.5 on each side.)

For the experiment of rolling an ordinary pair of dice, find the probability that the sum will be less than 7 or greater than 11.
Corporation X manufactures light bulbs. The CEO claims that an average the light bulb lasts 300 days. A researcher randomly selects 15 bulbs for testing. The sampled bulbs last an average of 290 days, SD of 50 days. If the CEO's claim were true, what is the probability that 15 randomly selected bulbs would have an average life of no more than 290 days? Use 3 decimal places. Do not put a % sign. Answer:
Suppose that you toss a coin n times and experimentally determine that the probability of heads is 40%. How many times must you toss the coin in order to be 95% certain that the theoretical probability for heads is between 38% and 42%?
A study has found that 85% of adults get their news on a mobile device. You randomly survey 35 adults and have found that 30 of them indeed get their news on a mobile device. What is the test statistic for this scenario? Round p to the hundredths place before completing your calculations.
A weighted coin has a 0.486 probability of landing on heads and a 0.514 probability of landing on tails. If you toss the coin 27 times, we want to know the probability of getting heads exactly 11 times.Consider a toss of heads as success in the binomial distribution.
