oose the correct interpretation of the standard deviation below. A. The standard deviation represents the sum of the deviations from the mean. B. The standard deviation represents finding the deviation for each observation, squaring each deviation, and then adding them up. C. Since the standard deviation uses the square of the units of measurement for the original data, it is not easy to interpret. D. The standard deviation represents a typical distance of an observation from the mean. Suppose the...

Assume that the sick leave, X, taken by the typical worker per year has mean µ = 10 and standard deviation σ = 2 measured in days. (A) Find the approximate probability that the number of sick days per year for a randomly selected employee from the firm exceeds 11? (B) Find the 90th percentile of the number of sick days per year.

An air conditioning contractor has kept detailed records on the lifetimes of a random sample of 250 compressors. She plans to use the sample mean lifetime, x, of those 250 compressors as her estimate for the population mean lifetime, u, of all such compressors. If the lifetimes of this brand of compressor have a standard deviation of 45 months, what is the probability that the contractor's estimate will be within 7 months of the true mean? The probability is (Round...
