Some parts of California are particularly earthquake prone. Suppose that in one metropolitan area, the chance a homeowner is insured against an earthquake is 0.30, A sample of four homeowners are to be selected at random. Suppose X is a random variable that is modeled by a binomial distribution which describes the number of homeowners out of the four that have earthquake insurance. (a) Find the probability mass function of X. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)...

A new treatment has been developed for a certain type of cement, resulting in a mean pressure resistance of 5000kg/cm² and a standard deviation of 130kg/cm². To verify the null hypothesis of p = 5000 against the alternative of u <5000, a random sample of 50 pieces of cement are examined.

Question No 02: [25] A particular area in New Zealand is prone to earthquakes as it is located on the major geological fault line and receives on average 80 earthquakes per day. Keeping in view that the inter arrival time within events of desired interest is independently and exponentially distributed, determine the following: a) What is the average time between two successive earthquakes in that area? b) Given an earthquake has already occurred, what is...

A civil engineer has been studying the frequency of vehicle accidents on a certain stretch of interstate highway. Longterm history indicates that there has been an average of 1.70 accidents per day on this section of the interstate. Let r be a random variable that represents number of accidents per day. Let O represent the number of observed accidents per day based on local highway patrol reports. A random sample of 90 days gave the following information. r 0 1...
