Let X denote the distance (m) that an animal moves from its birth site to the first territorial vacancy it encounters. Suppose that for banner-tailed kangaroo rats, X has an exponential distribution with parameter λ = .01386 (as suggested in the article "Competition and Dispersal from Multiple Nests," Ecology, 1997: 873-883). a. What is the probability that the distance is at most 100 m? At most 200 m? Between 100 and 200 m? What is the probability that distance exceeds the mean distance by more than 2 standard deviations? c. What is the value of the median distance? b.

Assume that the amounts of weight that male college students gain during their freshman year are normally distributed with a mean of u 1.3 parts (a) through (c) below. a. If 1 male college student is randomly selected, find the probability that he gains between 0 kg and 3 kg during freshman year. The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. If 16 male college students are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight gain during freshman year is between 0 kg and 3 kg. The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) c. Why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 30? OA. Since the weight gain exceeds 30, the distribution of sample means is a normal distribution for any sample size. OB. Since the original population has a normal distribution, the distribution of sample means is a normal distribution for any sample size. and a standard deviation of a 5.1 kg. Complete OC. Since the…
