Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. H0: accident are evenly distributed

H1: accident are not evenly distributed

B. The critical value is chi²(0.01,7) = 18.4753

C. The decision rule would be to reject h0 and accept h1 if the test statistic is higher than the critical value

D. Test statistic = summation (Oi-Ei)²/E

This gives 24.6 from the table.

E. Based on these calculations, test statistic is > than critical value

24.6> 18.4753

F. The inference is that accidents are not evenly distributed at 0.01 level of significance.

The weights of adobe bricks used for construction are normally distributed with a mean of 3 pounds and a standard deviation of 0
dedylja [7]

Answer:  a) 0.8413, b) 0.9987.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 3 pounds

Standard deviation = 0.25 pounds

n = 28 bricks

So, (a) What is the probability that all the bricks in the sample exceed 2.75 pounds?

P(X>2.75)\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{2.75-3}{0.25}\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{-0.25}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>-1)\\\\=0.8413

b) What is the probability that the heaviest brick in the sample exceeds 3.75 pounds?

P(X>3.75)\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{3.75-3}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{0.75}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>3)\\\\=0.9987

Hence, a) 0.8413, b) 0.9987.
