According to the most recent data from the Insurance Research Council, 16.1% of motorists in the United States were uninsured in 2010 (virginiabeach.injuryboard.com). Suppose that currently 16.1% of motorists in the United States are uninsured. Suppose that two motorists are selected at random. Let x de- note the number of motorists in this sample of two who are uninsured. Construct the probability distribu- tion table of x. Draw a tree diagram for this problem.

Chapter 05, Section 5.4, Problem 036 According to a survey conducted at the local OMV, 50% of drivers who rive to work stated that they regularly exceed the posted speed limit on their way to work. Suppose that this result is true for the population of drivers who drive to work. A random sample of 15 drivers who drive to work is selected. Use the binomial probabilities table (Table 1 of Appendix 8) or technology to find to 3 deimal...

3-According to a survey, 40% of adults are against using animals for research. Assume that this result holds true for the current population of all adults. Suppose 2 adults are selected random. Let X be the number of adults who are against using animals for research. a- Draw a tree diagram for this problem b- Write probability distribution of X. c- Find E(X) and Var(X).

1. The proportion of defective items in a large lot is p. Suppose a random sample of n items is selected from the lot. Let X denote the mumber of defective itens in the sample and let denote the number of non-defective items. (a) Specify the distributions of X and Y, respectively. Are they independent? (b) Find E(X-Y) and var(X Y).

According to a survey, 70% of households said that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. Suppose that this result is true for the current population of households. A. Let x be a binomial random variable that denotes the number of households in a random sample of 10 who have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. What are the possible values that x can assume? Integers ??? to ???. B. Find to 3 decimal places the probability that exactly...

3.8 A marketing survey for a large department store classified the store's customers according to whether they were male or female and according to their residence, suburban or city. The proportions of customers falling in the four categories are shown in the following probability table. Each entry in the table represents a possible outcome of the experiment (a simple event). Sex Residence Male Female total Suburban 17 .67 0.84 City .04 .120.16 total = 0.71 0.791.00 Suppose a single adult...

Uninsured Patients: It is estimated that 16.8% of all adults in the U.S. are uninsured. You take a random sample of 240 adults seen by a certain clinic and find that 47 (about 20% of them) are uninsured. (a) Assume the 16.8% value is accurate. In all random samples of 240 U.S. adults, what is the mean and standard deviation for the number of those who are uninsured? Round both answers to 1 decimal place. μ = σ = (b)...

Question 2 A survey asks a random sample of 1500 adults in Virginia if they support an increase in the sales tax from 5% to 6%, with the additional revenue going to education. Let p denote the proportion in the sample who say they support the increase. Suppose that 40% of all adults in Virginia support the increase. A.) Find the probability that p takes a value between 0.37 and 0.43. (5 points) B.) what's the probability that a majority...
