Researchers believe that 70% of all Americans believe in God. Let X equal the number of people that believe in God out of 40 Americans. Find the mean and standard deviation of X.
Researchers belive that 70% of all Americans belive in God.
Hence p=70%=0.7
Now we take random sample of 40
Hence n=40
And X equal the number of people belive in god.
So X~B(n=40,p=0.7)
This is binomial distribution with n=40 and p=0.7
Mean =np =40*0.7=28
Mean of X = 28
Standard deviation of X is √(npq)=√8.4=2.898
Standard deviation of X = 2.898=2.9

A study found that 6.7% of working Americans have worked at Mcdonalds. Let X represent the number of working Americans in a random sample of 900 Americans, who have worked at Mcdonalds. Find the mean and the standard deviation of X In a random sample of 900 working Americans, would it be unusual to find 65 of them have worked at Mcdonalds? Justify your answered

4. According to Pew Research, 70% of Generation Z Americans (those aged 13 to 21 in 2018) believe "government should do more to solve problems." I select two Generation Z Americans at random. Let X be a discrete random variable representing the number of the people I Generation Z Americans is very large, X will have very close to a binomial distribution. (a) Find P(X 0), P(X 1), and P(x-2) b) Write down an expression for F(y), the cumulative...
5. A number is selected at random from the digits 1 through 10 Let X equal the number of distinct divisors of the number selected. (Note: 1 is a divisor of all integers, and each nonzero integer is also a divisor of itself.) Write the probability distribution of X and find its mean and standard deviation
A Gallup poll reports that 26% of Americans believe big business is the biggest threat to the nation. (Gallup.com website article, in U.S., Fear of Big Government at Near-Record Level, December 12, 2011). Let’s assume this value represents the true population proportion. Suppose we randomly sample 200 Americans and ask them their beliefs about big business. We will assume the population proportion, p = .26, sample size n = 200 A) What are the values of np, and n(1-p)? B)...
If the proportion of american adults who believe that America is ready for a woman president is .70 what are the mean and standard deviation for the number of people who believes that america is ready for a sample size of 1000? find the standard deviation and mean.
3. Binomial Distribution. Are Americans superstitious? A Harris (Feb. 2013) poll of over 2,000 adult Americans was designed to answer this question. One survey item concerned the phrase “see a penny, pick it up, all day long you’ll have good luck.” The poll found that about 30 percent of Americans believe finding and picking up a penny is good luck. Consider a random sample of 20 U.S. adults and let x represent the number who believe finding and picking up...
A class has an equal number of boys and girls. The boys all got 89% on a test and the girls all got 75%. What are the mean and standard deviation of the test scores for the entire class? Find the Mean and Standard Deviation.
70% of all Americans live in cities with population greater than 100,000 people. If 35 Americans are randomly selected find the probability that a. Exactly 24 of them live in cities with population greater than 100,000 people. b. At most 23 of them live in cities with population greater than 100,000 people. e. At least 26 of them live in cities with population greater than 100,000 people. d. Between 20 and 27 (including 20 and 27) of them live in...
