1. What is an exact probability model for the number of automobile accidents over the past year for the 50 medical interns? (Note: The 11 reported accidents include both police-reported and non-police-reported accidents). Answer:- Fixed Proportion = .065 Number of interns involved in accident last year = total number of interns*.065. n = .065*It where n denoted interns in an accident and It denotes the total number of interns. P(n) = ItCn*.065^n*.935^(It-n)......from .binomial probability…

sample size is large enough n>30, the population standard deviation is known, and population is normally distributed. Example: Is the mean of systolic blood pressure level for women use of oral contraceptives is identical with women does not use of oral contraceptives, the sample mean > 30, we known the population standard deviation and it is normally distributed. H0: µ1=µ2 H1: µ1≠µ2 2. t- test is used when the population standard deviation is not known, the sample size is…

09.07 Task 1—Normal Distribution Scores on a statewide standardized test are normally distributed with a mean of 12.89 and a standard deviation of 1.95. Certificates are given to students whose scores are in the top 2% of those who took the test. This means that they scored better than 98% of the other test takers. Marcus received his score of 13.7 on the exam and is wondering why he didn’t receive a certificate. Show all work to determine whether Marcus’ score was high enough to earn a…
