Five males with an X-linked genetic disorder have one child each. The random variable x is the number of children among the five who inherit the X-linked genetic disorder. Determine whether a probability distribution is given. If a probability distribution is given, find its mean and standard deviation. If a probability distribution is not given, identify the requirements that are not satisfied.

50% of Reese’s Pieces candies are orange. The Reese’s Pieces applet lets you simulate draws from a hypothetical population of Reese’s Pieces and take data on the orange candies in your sample(s). (This applet was created by Professors Allan Rossman and Beth Chance at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.) http://www.rossmanchance.com/applets/OneProp/OneProp.htm?candy=1 If you do not immediately see the “Reese’s Pieces” simulation, scroll down the page and in the bottom left-hand corner you need to ‘click’ where prompted to default to the “Reese’s Pieces” simulation. 1)1) Use the applet to draw 25 candies and calculate the proportion of orange candies. Do this […]

The length of songs in a collector’s iTunes album collection is uniformly distributed from two to 3.5 minutes. Suppose we randomly pick five albums from the collection. There are a total of 43 songs on the five albums. d.
Retail stores experience their heaviest returns on December 26 and December 27 each year.
Retail stores experience their heaviest returns on December 26 and December 27 each year. Most are gifts that, for some reason, did not please the recipient. The number of items returned, by a sample of 30 persons at a large discount department store, are observed and the summary statistics below are obtained. n = 30 x (x with a line over it ) = 2,358 s = 1.202 Determine a 98% confidence interval for the population mean number of items returned. Confidence interval = ( , )
