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%.

Imagine that you have developed a genetic test to detect the dominant allele (A) that cause a rare genetic condition. As with mo
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Correct option: (B) 1.495%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = the test is positive.

<em>A</em> = a person with the dominant allele

The information given are:

P(X|A)=1\\P (X|A^{c})=0.005\\P(A)=0.01

According to the law of total probability the probability of an event <em>A, </em>conditional upon the occurrence of another event <em>B</em> is:

P(A)=P(A|B)P(B)+P(A|B^{c})P(B^{c})

Use this law to compute the probability of person having a positive result as follows:

 P(X)=P(X|A)P(A)+P(X|A^{c})P(A^{c})\\=(1\times0.01)+(0.005\times(1-0.01))\\=0.01+0.00495\\=0.01495

The percentage of positive result is: 0.01495 × 100 = 1.495%.

Thus, the percentage of the population will give a positive test is 1.495%.

An analyst in Bank of America, Santa Clara University Branch, believes that on Mondays customers arrive at the bank with rate 50
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

0.0821

Step-by-step explanation:

If the arrival rate is 50 customers per hour (60 minutes), then the expected number of customers in 3 minutes is:

\lambda=\frac{50}{60}*3\\ \lambda=2.5\ customers/3\ minutes

Assuming a Poisson distribution with 2.5 customers per 3 minutes, the probability that zero customers arrive for 3 minutes is:

P(x=k)=\frac{\lambda^k*e^{-\lambda}}{k!}\\P(x=0)=\frac{2.5^0*e^{-2.5}}{0!}\\ P(x=0)=0.0821

The probability that the bank stays empty for three minutes is 0.0821.
