7 total questions exploring Discrete Random Variables and Normal Distribution. Â Please show all steps when solving the problems.
Â
1. Â Multiple choice questions each have 6 possible answers, one of which is correct. Â Assume that you guess the answers to 5 such questions. Â What is the probability of getting exactly one correct answer when 5 guesses are made?
Â
2. Â Pretty Betty has a share of 28. Â 28% of households were tuned to Pretty Betty. Â Assume an advertiser verifies 28% survey with 15 households. Â Find probability that at most one household is tuned to Pretty Betty. Â P(at most one).
Â
3. Â Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with n=405 trials and the probability of success for one trial is p=0.59. Â Use the range rule of thumb to find minimum usual value of mean -2 standard deviations and the maximum usual value of the mean + 2 standard deviations.
Â
4.  Several anthropologist students were unprepared for  a true/false quiz with 15 questions.  All answers were guesses.  Give the range for the usual number of correct answers.
Â
5. Â CIA analyze frequencies of letters used to decipher intercepted messages. Â The letter o is used at a rate of 7.16%. Â Give the interval of usual values for the number of o's appearing on a page of 2900 characters.
Â
6. Â Reading on a thermometer are normally distributed with a mean of 0 degrees celsius and a standard deviation of 1.00 degrees celsius. Â Thermometer was randomly selected. Find the probability of obtaining a reading between -2.557 degrees celsius and 0.114 degrees celsius. Â P (-2.557<Z<0.114).
Â
7. Â Pregnancies in a small rural village normally distributed with a mean of 270 days and a standard deviation of 12 days. Â What percentage of pregnancies las beyond 269 days? Â P(X>269).
