Last year, a person wrote 131 checks. Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one day, and assume that it has a Poisson distribution. What is the mean number of checks written per day? What is the standard deviation? What is the variance? ..... The mean number of checks written per day is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The standard deviation is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The variance is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 6.3 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 870 samples is 6.4 ppm. Assume the variance is known to be 1.00. Does the data support the claim at the 0.1 level? Step 2 of 5 : Enter the value of the z test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Suppose that males between the ages of 40 and 49 eat on average 103.8 g of fat every day with a standard deviation of 4.02 g. The amount of fat a person eats is not normally distributed but it is relatively mound shaped. State the random variable. The amount of fat a male between the ages of 40 and 49 eats every day. The mean amount of fat males between the ages of 40 and 49 eats every day. The standard deviation of the amount of fat males between the ages of 40 and 49 eats every day. Find the probability that a sample mean amount of daily fat intake for 32 men age 40-59 is more than 100 g. Round to four decimal places. P(x > 100) = Find the probability that a sample mean amount of daily fat intake for 32 men age 40-59 in the U.S. is less than 94 g. Round to four decimal places. P(x < 94)= If you found a sample mean amount of daily fat intake for 32 men age 40-59 in the U.S. less than 94 g, what would you conclude? O If the sample mean for 32 men age 40-59 were less than 94 g, there is…

Information needed for the next two problems: A bored statistician is interested in researching length of commercial breaks on cable channels (ESPN, TNT, etc.) and comparing them to the length of commercial breaks on the networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX). She times a random sample of commercials from each of the two types of broadcasts which are assumed to be normally distributed. Source n Mean(min.) Std. Dev. (min.) Cable 15 2.36 0.16 Network 12 2.18 0.13 Based on your previous answer for the upper bound and assuming the lower bound ratio of variances of cable to network is 0.5531, your conclusion about the spread of the variances of cable vs network commercials is O 1 is in the interval so statistically the same O O is in the interval so statistically the same O 1 is not in the interval so statistically different O O is in the interval so statistically not the same O 1 is in the interval so statistically not the same
Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.8 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 242samples is 5.2 ppm with a variance of 1.001.00. Does the data support the claim at the 0.05 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places. Specify if the test is one-tailed or two-tailed. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
