The number of cracks that need repair in a section of interstate highway follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of two cracks per mile. Determine the probability mass function f(x) of the number of cracks (X) in 5 miles of highway. Find the probability that there are at least five cracks in 5 miles of highway that require repair. Calculate the mean and variance of X.
Data on the weights of the contents of cans of diet soda versus the contents of cans of regular soda is summarized in the table. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. A. Test the claim that the contents of cans of diet soda have weights with a mean that is less than the mean for the regular soda. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? The test statistic, t, is? The p value is? Round three decimal places as needed
A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if her glucose level is above 155 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink. Sheila's measured glucose level one hour after the sugary drink varies according to the normal distribution with �=140 mg/dl and �=12 mg/dl. Suppose Sheila repeats this process on three separate randomly selected days. What sample mean blood glucose level is higher than 95% of all other sample mean blood glucose levels? Use 2 decimal places.
Transforming all the values in a distribution to Z scores gives the distribution a mean of ______ and a standard deviation of ____________ . In a very large class, exam scores are normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 3, what is the exam score of someone who scored 1 standard deviation above the mean on the exam? In a very large class, exam scores are normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 3, what proportion of the people in the class scored more than 1 standard deviation above the mean? (Give your answer to at least 3 places past the decimal point)
The control department of a light bulb manufacturer randomly picks 4400 light bulbs from the production lot every week. The records show that, when there is no malfunction, the defect rate in the manufacturing process (due to imperfections in the material used) is 1%. When 1.25% or more of the light bulbs in the sample of 4400 are defective, the control unit calls repair technicians for service. a)Find the mean of p, where p is the proportion of defective light bulbs in a sample of 4400 when there is no malfunction. b)Find the standard deviation of p. c)Compute an approximation for P≥p0.0125, which is the probability that the service technicians will be called even though the system is functioning properly. Round your answer to four decimal places.
Spray drift is a constant for pesticide applications and agricultural producers. Suppose that the normal distribution with a mean of 1050μm and standard deviation of 150μm was the reason to model for droplet size for water (the ”control treatment”) sprayed through a 760ml/min nozzle. Find the probability that the size of a single droplet is between 1000 and 1500μm.

Exam scores in a large class are normally distributed with a mean of 55 and standard deviation of 10. The teacher decides to boost the scores by adding 20 points to everyone’s score. Elizabeth’s original score on the exam was 75, so her new score is 95. The z-score corresponding to her new score (relative to the other new scores) will be:
