An Olympic archer is able to hit the bull's-eye 84% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. She shoots 6 arrows. a) How many bull's-eyes do you expect her to get? b) What is the standard deviation? c) If she keeps shooting arrows until she hits the bull's-eye, how long do you expect it will take?
Question 16 Jason is a baseball player who has batted both left-handed and right-handed during his career. Among 3,281 left-handed at- bats, he recorded a hit on 810 of them, and he recorded a hit on 670 of 2,412 right-handed at-bats. Perform a two- proportion hypothesis test to determine whether there is a difference in Jason's true batting averages (hits divided byat- bats) between batting left and right-handed. Assume that the conditions for inference are satisfied Usea0.05. Let the eft-handed...

Problem 1. You hit a bowling ball with a mallet, starting from rest. Every time you hit it, its velocity increases by exactly 10 cm/s. You start timing (t 0 seconds) at the instant you hit the ball the first time, and you hit it once every second. Two simplifying approximations: (1) Suppose each hit is very short, so the speed changes in a short amount of time and (2) suppose the ball doesn't slow down between hits a. Att...
