A random sample of n = 16 professors from a university has been selected; salaries have been plotted on the following Q-Q plot.

qqplot If we created a 95% confidence interval for salaries to be ($99,881, $171,172), how would we interpret that interval? Since n = 16 > 15, we can use the CLT to say we are 95% sure that all professors' salaries at this university are between $99,881 and $171,172. Since n = 16 > 15, we can use the CLT to say we are 95% sure the average of all professors' salaries at this university is between $99,881 and $171,172. We actually can't be 95% sure the average professor salary is in the interval, since the salaries are right-skewed and n = 16 < 30.

Answer:

The objective of the confidence interval is to give a range in which the real mean of the population is placed, with a degree of confidence given by the level of significance.

The conclusion we can make is that there is 95% of probability that the mean of the population (professor's average salary) is within $99,881 and $171,172.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case in which, from a sample os size n=16, a confidence interval is constructed.

The objective of the confidence interval is to give a range in which the real mean of the population is placed, with a degree of confidence given by the level of significance. In this case, the probability that the real mean is within the interval is 95%.

Because all airline passengers do not show up for their reserved seat, an airline sells 125 tickets for a flight that holds only
bekas [8.4K]

Answer: a) 0.9961, b) 0.9886

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that does not show up = 0.10

Probability that show up = 0.90

Here, we use "Binomial distribution":

n = 125 and p = 0.90

Number of passengers that hold in a flight = 120

a) What is the probability that every passenger who shows up can take the flight?

P(X\leq 120)=\sum_{x=0}^{120}^{125}C_x(0.90)^x(0.10)^{125-x}=0.9961

(b) What is the probability that the flight departs with empty seats?

P(X\leq 119)=\sum _{x=0}^{119}^{125}C_x(0.90)^x)(0.10)^{125-x}=0.9886

Hence, a) 0.9961, b) 0.9886
