A vending machine company wants to check three of its machines to determine if they are properly dispensing 12 ounces of coffee. Test by using α=0.05. Their data is given below.

A research center claims that 30% of adults in a certain country would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. In a random sample of 700 adults in that country, 34% say that they would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. At α=0.01, is there enough evidence to reject the research center's claim? Complete parts (a) through (d) below.
If np > 5 and nq > 5 estimate P(more than 4) with n = 13 and p = 0.5 by using the normal distrubution as an approximation to the binomial distribution. P(at least 4) =
Let X be Binomial(n = 20, p = 0.50, size = 1000) distributed. Use Chebyshev's inequality to estimate P(X ≥ alpha), where alpha is the frequency and equal to 50%.
You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. Consider a binomial experiment with n = 10 and p = 0.30. (a) Compute f(0). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) f(0) = (b) Compute f(2). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) f(2) = (c) Compute P(x ≤ 2). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) P(x ≤ 2) = (d) Compute P(x ≥ 1). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) P(x ≥ 1) = (e) Compute E(x). E(x) = (f) Compute Var(x) and σ. (Round your answer for σ to two decimal places.) Var(x) =σ=
A manufacturer of light bulbs may want to be reasonably certain that less than 3% of the bulbs are defective. Suppose 300 bulbs are randomly selected from a very large shipment. Each tested and 10 defective bulbs are found. Does this provide sufficient evidence for the manufacturer to conclude that the fraction defective in the entire shipment is less than 0.03? The correct test statistic (rounded off to three decimals) is: A. Z = 0.338 B. T = 0.332 C. Z = - 0.322 D. Z = 0.321

From previous studies, it is concluded that 60% of phone numbers in a certain city are unlisted. A researcher claims that the proportion is smaller than 60% and decides to survey 600 working adults. Test the researcher's claim at the α=0.025 significance level. Preliminary: Is it safe to assume that n≤0.05 of all subjects in the population? Yes No Verify np(1−p)≥10.
