The professor of a
introductory calculus class has stated that, historically, the
distribution of final exam grades in the course resemble a Normal
distribution with a mean final exam mark of μ=63μ=63% and a
standard deviation of σ=9σ=9%.
If using/finding zz-values, use three decimals.

5. The percentage of accounting undergraduates passing the CPA exam is 20% (assume every student takes the test). You randomly select 17 graduating accounting students and would like to know a few things about their prospects of passing the test. (14 points) a) What distribution would be appropriate for this question? Why? b) What is the probability that exactly 5 will pass the exam? c) What is the probability that at least 9 will pass the exam? d) What is...

. There are n questions on a multiple choice exam, and for each question, there are four choices. To pass the exam, one must correctly answer at least 70% of the questions. The student has not studied, so he/she has to resort to guessing on every question. a. Find the probability of the student passing for n = 10. b. Find the expected number of questions answered correctly for n = 20. c. Find the variance for the number of...

(3) (15 pts) Suppose that in the State of Nebraska the written exam for a drivers license consists of 4 multiple-choice questions. Each question has 4 possible choices, only one of which is correct. Passing requires answering at least 3 questions correctly. Consider an experiment: an uninformed student-driver guesses at random on each question, where "guessing at random" means that (i) the student answers each question independently of the other questions and (ii) that for each question the student chooses...

Suppose for the two exams in this course, we would like to see if there is any significant improvement from exam 1 to exam 2, i.e., testing H0 : µx ≥ µy vs HA : µx < µy for the average exam scores. Suppose we have n = 36 students, and the sample statistics are x¯ = 21, y¯ = 22, sx = sy = 3 and sxy = 4.5. Compute the p-value using paired two-sample test Suppose we use...

A truelfalse test has 100 questions. Suppose a passing grade is 60 or more correct answers. Test the claim that a student knows more than half of the answers and is not just guessing. Assume the student gets 60 answers correct out of 100. Use a significance level of 0.05. Steps 1 and 2 of a hypothesis test procedure are given below. Show step 3, finding the test statistic and the p-value and step 4, interpreting the results. Step 1:...

The average final exam score for the statistics course is 75%. A professor wants to see if the average final exam score for students who are given colored pens on the first day of class is lower. The final exam scores for the 15 randomly selected students who were given the colored pens are shown below. Assume that the distribution of the population is normal. 63, 81, 82, 65, 75, 49. 86, 75, 56, 62, 72, 83, 81, 66, 48...
