Life Insurance: A life insurance company wants to estimate the probability that a 40-year-old male will live through the next year. In a sample of 8000 such men from prior years, 7995 lived through the year. Use the relative frequency approximation to estimate the probability that a randomly selected 40-year-old male will live through the next year. Round your answer to 4 decimal places. P(he lives through the year) =

A recent study focused on the number of times men and women who live alone buy take-out dinner in a month. Assume that the distributions follow the normal probability distribution. The information is summarized below. Statistic Men Women Sample mean 25.57 22.33 Population standard deviation 5.58 4.95 Sample size 36 40 At the .01 significance level, is there a difference in the mean number of times men and women order take-out dinners in a month? Hint: Consider the "Men" data...

Four-year-olds in China average 3.5 unsupervised hours per day. Most of the unsupervised children live in rural areas, considered safe. Suppose that the amount of unsupervised time is normally distributed with standard deviation 1 . A Chinese 4-year-old is randomly selected from a rural area. We are interested in the amount of time the child spends alone per day. In each appropriate box you are to enter either a rational number in "p/q" format or a decimal value accurate to...
