Watching TV: In 2012, the General Social Survey asked a sample of 1330 people how much time they spent watching TV each day. The mean number of hours was 3.05 with a standard deviation of 2.70. A sociologist claims that people watch a mean of 3 hours of TV per day. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean hours of TV watched per day is more than the claim? Use the a=0.10 level of significance and...
A newspaper article reported that people spend a mean of 7 hours per day watching TV, with a standard deviation of 1.8 hours. A psychologist would like to conduct interviews with the 10% of the population who spend the most time watching TV. She assumes that the daily time people spend watching TV is normally distributed. At least how many hours of daily TV watching are necessary for a person to be eligible for the interview? Carry your intermediate computations...

A political committee consists of eight Democrats and six Republicans. A subcommittee of nine people needs to be formed from this group. (For this problem, define a success as a Democrat being selected for the subcommittee.) a. Determine the probability that this subcommittee will consist of five Democrats and four Republicans if they were randomly selected. b. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of this distribution. a. The probability that this subcommittee will consist of five Democrats and four Republicans...
) According to a certain survey, adults spend 2.252.25 hours per day watching television on a weekday. Assume that the standard deviation for "time spent watching television on a weekday" is 1.931.93 hours. If a random sample of 6060 adults is obtained, describe the sampling distribution of x overbarx, the mean amount of time spent watching television on a weekday. x overbarx is approximately normal with mu Subscript x overbarμxequals= 2.25 and sigma Subscript x overbarσxequals=0.2491620.249162 .

TV sets: According to the Nielsen Company, the mean number of TV sets in a U.S. household in 2013 was 2.24. Assume the standard deviation is 1.1. A sample of 90 households is drawn. Use the Cumulative Normal Distribution Table if needed. Part 1 of 5 What is the probability that the sample mean number of TV sets is greater than 27 Round your answer to four decimal places. The probability that the sample mean number of TV sets is...
