Finding the score needed on a final exam to obtain a desired average.
Your score on three tests are 76,88, and 72. Your grade on the final exam will count twice as much as any one test grade in determining your average grade for the course. In order for your average grade for the course to be 82, your grade on the final exam must be: ? a. 85 b. 87 c. 77 d. 92 e. none of the above
Suppose the probability that a federal income tax return conatins an arithemetic error is 0.2. If 10 federal income tax returns are selected at random, the probability that fewer than two of them will conatin errors is:
Probability & Statistics : Outcome of Dice Rolls
Two people play a game. A single die is thrown. If the outcome is a 2 or a 3, then player A pays player B $6.00. How much should B pay A when a 1, 4, 5, or 6 is thrown so that A and B break even, on average, over many repititions of the game? a. $2.00 b. $8.00 c. $4.00 d. $6.00 e. None of the above
Probability & Statistics : Chebychev Inequality
Suppose that a probability distribution has a mean 20 and standard deviation 3. The Chebychev inequality states that the probability that an outcome lies between 16 and 24 is: a. less than 7/16 b. at least 7/16 c. at most 1/4 d. at least 1/4 e. none of the above
Problem: The IQ of adults in a certain large population is normally distributed with mean 100 and standard deviation10.
