Suppose that the average resting heart rate for men over 19 years old is 70 beats per minute (bpm) with a standard deviation of 8 bpm. 1. What is the probability that a randomly selected male 19 years old or older will have a resting heart rate of more than 83?
suppose that the weight of male babies less than 2 months old is normally distributed with mean 11.5 pounds and standard deviation 2.7 pounds. a sample of 36 babies is selected. what is the probability that the average weight of the sample is less than 11.12 pounds? round to 4 decimal places.
1-Over a period of many months, a particular 5 year old boy's play activity was observed. The length of time spent in each episode of play with toys was recorded. The paper "A Temporal Analysis of Free Toy Play and Distractibility in Young Children" (Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1991 pages 41-69) reported the accompanying data on the play- episode lengths...

During the cold months heating bills can be expensive. A contractor claims that installing a new brand of insulation will considerably lower the average heating bill, which is typically $250. After we collected data for 4 months on a house with the new insulation we found that average heating bill was $220 for a period of 4 months, with standard deviation $30. 1. What is the standard score for the average in our sample? 2. What is the probability that...
2. During the summer months of June, July, and August, an average of 5 marriages per month take place in a small city. Assuming that these marriages occur randomly and independently of one another, and assuming a Poisson distribution, find the following: (a) The probability that 4 marriages will occur in June. (b) The probability that between 14 and 16 marriages (inclusive) will occur over the 3 months of June, July, and August (c) The probability that at at least...
The average age of a vehicle registered in the United States is 8 years (96 months). the ages are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 16 months. Assume 7. a car is selected randomly, what is the probabilty that its age is between 91 and 102 months? b. If a random sample of 36 vehicles is taken, what is the probability that the mean of their ages is between 91 and 102 months? 8. (Check your homework notes). In...

Eastern Motors Auto Dealership wanted to estimate the average CLV over a 5 year time horizon of a customer who purchases a new vehicle. The average vehicle sells for $27,100 and has a margin of 10%. Based on historical averages, 74% of people buying a new vehicle at Eastern will return for service 11 times over the next 5 years. Though it varies considerably, Eastern generates approximately $132 in margin on each service visit after accounting for parts and direct...
The Human Resource Manager at Crown Point Hotel is looking at the number of sick days that all employees at the hotel have been taking over the past 6 months. She has found that the number of sick days follows a normal distribution with a mean of 6.7 sick days and a variance of 1.44 sick days. What is the probability that in a six-month period an employee takes: More than four and a half (4.5) sick days? (5 marks)...
