Eighty-eight percent of students receive financial aid. Suppose 150 students are selected at random. Use the...
Suppose that 12% of the population of the U.S. is left-handed. If a random sample of 130 people from the U.S. is chosen, approximate the probability that at most 14 are left-handed. Use the normal approximation to the binomial with a correction for continuity. Round your answer to at least three decimal places. Do not round any intermediate steps. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) x 5 ?
A university wants to examine the effect of financial aid on graduation rate. Among the students, 90% of them graduate with a bachelor degree. For those who graduate, 75% of them receive financial aid. For those who do not graduate, 50% of them receive financial aid. For those who receive financial aid, what is the probability that they graduate?

1. In a particular facility, 60% of students are men and 40% are women. In a random sample of 50 students what is the probability that more than half are women? Let the random variable X = number of women in the sample. Assume X has the binomial distribution with n = 50 and p = 0.4. What is the expected value and variance of the random variable X? (6 points) In a random sample of 50 students what is...
also suppose that the mean amount of financial aid received by students at the college is $1,500 ( μ-15, 00). What is the population? Whatis the variable? What is the population mean? Question: Howaccurate arerandom samplesatprediction thispopulationproportion of0.60? Consider the following random samples and determine the mean amount of financial aid received by the students Random Sample 1 Random Sample 2 Random Sample 3 Sample Means: Each random sample came from a population for which the mean amount of financial...
A university dean is interested in determining the proportion of students who receive some sort of financial aid. Rather than examine the records for all students, the dean randomly selects 200 students and finds that 118 of them are receiving financial aid. If the dean wanted to estimate the proportion of all students receiving financial aid to within 3% with 98% reliability, how many students would need to be sampled?
A university dean randomly selected 200 students and found that 102 of them were receiving financial aid. a) Calculate the 80% confidence interval for the true rate of students who receive financial aid. Interpret the result. b) Calculate the 90% confidence interval for the true rate of students who do not receive financial aids. Interpret the result. c) How large a sample size needed with 95% confidence to estimate the true rate of students who receive financial aid within 0.05....
Use standard normal and t-Distribution tablesYou are expected to use the Standard Normal and the t-Distribution Tables for all answers on this quiz. You must algebraically calculate the Margin or Error by hand for problems requiring that. Calculator-produced probabilities or confidence intervals will receive minimal credit. 1. (1.5 points) A survey of 177 fatal accidents showed that, in 42 cases, the driver at fault was inadequately insured. Find a point estimate for the population proportion, p, of accidents where the...

Question 1 (Normal Approximation). Suppose that 25% of Rackham graduate students are Graduate Student Instructor (GSI). Now, select a random sample of 50 Rackham graduate students. Let X be the number of Rackham graduate students in the random sample who are GSI. (a) What is the distribution of X? (b) Approximate X using a normal random variable Y and provide the mean and variance of Y. Explain all the required conditions for this approximation (c) What is the approximate probability...
