Question
Suppose we have a binomial experiment in which success is defined to be a particular quality or attribute that interests us.
(a) Suppose n = 35 and p = 0.25. Can we approximate p̂ by a normal distribution ? Why? (Use 2 decimal places.)
np = |
nq = |
What are the values of ?p̂ and ?p̂? (Use 3 decimal places.)
?p̂ = |
?p̂ = |
(c) Suppose n = 41 and p = 0.37. Can we approximate p̂ by a normal distribution? Why? (Use 2 decimal places.)
np = |
nq = |
What are the values of ?p̂ and ?p̂? (Use 3 decimal places.)

The boxplots are drawn using a common numerical scale. Which of the following must be true? 1. The lower 25% of Class B are much more spread out than the lower 25% of Class A 2. More people scored below the lower quartile for Class A than Class B 3. The distribution for Class B is skewed left and has a noticeable outlier as well, while the distribution for Class A is somewhat skewed right 4.Class A had more people between the median and the lower quartile than Class B. 3.The distribution for Class A is somewhat symmetric, while the distribution for Class B is skewed right with a noticeable outlier as wellarrow_forward3a) The mean IQ of 200 patients in a psychiatric hospital is 91, with a variance of 16, and the distribution is highly negatively skewed.
