Consider the pth percentile of a continuous random variable. Which of the following statements are always true? Select all that apply. The area under the curve to the left of the pth percentile is equal to (1-p). The area under the curve to the right of the pth percentile is equal to p. The area under the curve to the left of the pth percentile is equal to p. The area under the curve to the right of the pth percentile is equal to (1-p). The pth percentile is positive. O O O 0

Bill Alther is a zoologist who studies Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna).t Suppose that in a remote part of the Grand Canyon, a random sample of six of these birds was caught, weighed, and released. The weights (in grams) were as follows. 3.7 2.9 3.8 4.2 4.8 3.1 The sample mean is x = 3.75 grams. Let x be a random variable representing weights of hummingbirds in this part of the Grand Canyon. We assume that x has a normal distribution and o = 0.96 gram. Suppose it is known that for the population of all Anna's hummingbirds, the mean weight is µ = 4.80 grams. Do the data indicate that the mean weight of these birds in this part of the Grand Canyon is less than 4.80 grams? Use a = 0.10. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. Will you use a left-tailed, right- tailed, or two-tailed test? O Ho: H 4.8 g; right-tailed O Ho: H = 4.8 g; H1: µ < 4.8 g; left-tailed (b) What sampling distribution will you use? Explain the rationale for your choice of…

K A study was done on proctored and nonproctored tests. The results are shown in the table. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal A.
