Question 1

The time required for a citizen to complete the 2000 U.S. Census "long" form is normally distributed with a mean of 40 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. What proportion of the citizens will require less than one hour?

Question 2

If the random variable Z has a standard normal distribution, then P(Z ≤ -1.37) is

Question 3

Bob's z-score for the last exam was 1.52 in Prof. Axolotl's class BIO 417 "Life Cycle of the Ornithorhynchus". Bob said, "Oh, good, I'm in the top 10%." Is he right?

Question 4

If arrivals occur at a mean rate of 1.6 events per minute, the exponential probability of waiting less than 1 minute for the next arrival is

Question 5

The lengths of brook trout caught in a certain Colorado stream have a mean of 14 inches and a standard deviation of 3 inches. The first quartile for the lengths of brook trout would be

Question 6

Assume that X is normally distributed with a mean μ= $64. Given that P(X ≥$75) = 0.2981, we can calculate that the standard deviation of X is approximately

Question 7

If arrivals follow a Poisson distribution with mean 1.2 arrivals per minute, find the 75th percentile of waiting times (i.e., 75 percent below).

Question 8

The MPG (miles per gallon) for a certain compact car is normally distributed with a mean of 31 and a standard deviation of 0.8. What is the probability that the MPG for a randomly selected compact car would be less than 32?

Question 9

A letter is mailed to a sample of 500 homeowners. Based on past experience, the probability of an undeliverable letter is 0.06. The normal approximation to the probability of 40 or more undeliverable letters is
