An insurance company's records of 12,299 automobile insurance policies showed that 2073 policy holders made a claim (Courtesy J. Hickman). Among insured drivers under age 25, there were 1032 claims out of 5192 policies. For person selected at random from the policy holders, let A = [Claim was filed] and B: [Under age 25] . Use Bayes' Theorem to obtain the probability that the person is under age 25 given that a claim was filed. Answer in three decimal places.
Find the probability that a normal random variable X with meanu = 30 and standard deviation o = 6 is at least 40.5. O 0.4006 O None O 0.9599 O 0.0401
Use the Poisson distribution to approximate the binomial probability b(1; 100, 0.02).
Assume that you have a random variable X which is binomially distributed, and someone told you that the mean of this variable is (6) and variance is (4.2). Find P(X=5).
A population has a mean of u=30 and a standard deviation of sd=5. a. If 5 points were added to every score in the population, what would be the new values for the mean and standard deviation? b. If every score in the population were multiplied by 3, what would be the new values for the mean and standard deviation?
Problem 6: Non-linear Regression Model The total time needed to bring a car to stop after the driver perceives danger is the reaction time plus the braking time. Reaction time is the time between the perception of danger and applying the brakes, and braking time is the time for stopping after applying the brakes. The table below gives the stopping distance d (in feet) of the car traveling at speeds v (in miles per hour) from the instant of danger perception. a. Fit a least squares 2nd degree polynomial of the form d = a, + a1v + a2v² b. Estimated when v = 45 mph d V ft mph 20 54 30 90 40 145 50 210 60 305 70 400
8.4 Consider a population consisting of the following five values, which represent the number of DVD rentals during the academic year for each of five housemates: 8 14 16 10 11 a. Compute the mean of this population. b. Select a random sample of size 2 by writing the five numbers in this population on slips of paper, mixing them, and then selecting two. Compute the mean for your sample. c. Repeatedly select random samples of size 2, and compute the x value for each sample until you have the x values for 25 samples. d. Construct a density histogram using the 25 x values. Are most of the x values near the population mean? Do the x values differ a lot from sample to sample, or do they tend to be similar? (Hint: See Example 8.1.)
A person by the name of Sutterland has developed a correlation that can be used to evaluate the viscosity of air as a function of temperature. It is given by Create a table that shows the viscosity of airas a function of temperature in the range of 0° C (273 15 ) to 100° C (373 15 )in increments of 5° C. Also create a graph showing the value of viscosity as afunction of temperature as shown in the accompanying spreadsheet.
