Suppose in a local Kindergarten through 12th grade (K - 12) school district, 53 percent of the population favor a charter school for grades K through five. A simple random sample of 500 is surveyed. Calculate the following using the normal approximation to the binomial distribution
(a) Find the probability that less than 200 favor a charter
school for grades K through 5.
(b) Find the probability that 260 or more favor a charter school
for grades K through 5.
(c) Find the probability that no more than 235 favor a charter
school for grades K through 5.
(d) Find the probability that there are fewer than 230 that favor a
charter school for grades K through 5.
(e) Find the probability that exactly 250 favor a charter school
for grades K through 5

1. In an August 2012 Gallup survey of 1,012 randomly selected U.S. adults (age 18 and over), 53% said that they were dissatisfied with the quality of education students receive in kindergarten through grade 12. The bootstrap distribution (based on 5,000 samples) is provided. a). Would it be appropriate to use the normal distribution to construct the confidence interval in this situation? Explain briefly. b). The standard error from the bootstrap distribution is SE = 0.016. Use the normal distribution...
1. Suppose that random variables X and Y are independent and have the following properties: E(X) = 5, Var(X) = 2, E(Y ) = −2, E(Y 2) = 7. Compute the following. (a) E(X + Y ). (b) Var(2X − 3Y ) (c) E(X2 + 5) (d) The standard deviation of Y . 2. Consider the following data set: �x = {90, 88, 93, 87, 85, 95, 92} (a) Compute x¯. (b) Compute the standard deviation of this set. 3....
apter 1. Consider the following data on distances traveled by 100 people to visit the local park. 1-8 30 25 20 15 10 9-16 17-24 25-32 33-40 Expand and construct the table adding columns for relative frequency and cumulative relative frequency. Then plot Histogram, Frequency Polygon and Ogive Curve. 2. Math test anxiety can be found throughout the general population. A study of 200 seniors at a local high school was conducted. The following table was produced from the data....
Test the hypothesis using the P-value approach. Be sure to verify the requirements of the test. Upper H 0 : p equals 0.84 versus Upper H 1 : p not equals 0.84 n equals 500 comma x equals 410 comma alpha equals 0.05 n=500, x=410, α=0.05 Is np 0 left parenthesis 1 minus p 0 right parenthesis greater than or equals 10np01−p0≥10? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Type an integer...
Code is in C# Your instructor would like to thank to Marty Stepp and Hélène Martin at the University of Washington, Seattle, who originally wrote this assignment (for their CSE 142, in Java) This program focuses on classes and objects. Turn in two files named Birthday.cs and Date.cs. You will also need the support file Date.dll; it is contained in the starter project for this assignment. The assignment has two parts: a client program that uses Date objects, and a...
