- K The data on the right represent the number of live multiple-delivery births (three or more babies) in a particular year for women 15 to 54 years old. Use the data to complete parts (a) through (d) below. Age 15-19 20-24 25-29 30-34 35-39 40-44 45-54 Number of Multiple Births (a) Determine the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother 30 to 39 years old. P(30 to 39)= (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) (b) Determine the probability that a randomly selected multiple birth for women 15-54 years old involved a mother who was not 30 to 39 years old.

Find the probability of getting 4 or more sleepwalkers among 5 adults. _________ (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) c. Which probability is relevant for determining whether 4 is a significantly high number of sleepwalkers among 5 adults: the result from part (a) or part (b)? A. Since the probability of getting 4 or more sleepwalkers is the probability of the given or more extreme result, the result from part (b) is the relevant probability. B.

- 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?
