In a survey, cell phone users were asked which ear they use to hear their cell phone, and the table is based on their responses. Determine whether a probability distribution is given. If a probability distribution is not given, identify the requirements that are not satisfied. Select all that apply

No, the random variable x is categorical instead of numerical.

Yes, the table shows a probability distribution.

No, the numerical values of the random variable x are not associated with probabilities

No, the sum of all the probabilities is not equal to 1.

No, not every probability is between 0 and 1 inclusive.

Find the probability that when a couple has three children, at least one of them is a boy. (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely.)

The probability is 7/8 that at least one of the three children is a boy.

The probability is 1/2 that at least one of the three children is a boy.

The probability is 3/4 that at least one of the three children is a boy.

The probability is 1/8 that at least one of the three children is a boy.

Assume that hybridization experiments are conducted with peas having the property that for offspring, there is a 0.25 probability that a pea has green pods. Assume that the offspring peas are randomly selected in groups of 32. Find the mean and the standard deviation for the numbers of peas with green pods in the groups of 32.

The value of the mean is μ = 8 peas. The value of the standard deviation is σ = 2.4 peas.

The value of the mean is μ = 8 peas. The value of the standard deviation is σ = 2.0 peas.

The value of the mean is μ = 6 peas. The value of the standard deviation is σ = 2.0 peas.

The value of the mean is μ = .25 peas. The value of the standard deviation is σ = 8 peas.

Assume that hybridization experiments are conducted with peas having the property that for offspring, there is a 0.25 probability that a pea has green pods. Assume that the offspring peas are randomly selected in groups of 32. Using the range rule of thumb Is the result of 1 pea significantly low?

Yes, 1 is less than 3 green peas

No, 1 is not less than zero green peas.

Yes, 1 is less than 2 green peas

Yes, the probability of 1 out of 32 peas being green given p=0.25 is less than .05

Assume that hybridization experiments are conducted with peas having the property that for offspring, there is a 0.25 probability that a pea has green pods. Assume that the offspring peas are randomly selected in groups of 32. Use the range rule of thumb to find the values separating results that are significantly low or significantly high.

Values of 3.1 peas or fewer are significantly low. Values of 12.9 peas or greater are significantly high.

Values of 2.4 peas or fewer are significantly low. Values of 3.1 peas or greater are significantly high.

Values of 3.1 peas or fewer are significantly low. Values of 10.4 peas or greater are significantly high.

Values of 2.4 peas or fewer are significantly low. Values of 12.9 peas or greater are significantly high.

Determine whether the given procedure results in a binomial distribution. If not, state the reason why. Rolling a single die 26 times, keeping track of the numbers that are rolled

Not binomial: there are more than two outcomes for each trial.

Not binomial: the trials are not independent.

The procedure results in a binomial distribution.

Not binomial: there are too many trials.

When 100 engines are shipped, all of them are free of defects. Select a written description of the complement of the given event.

B. At least one of the engines is defective.

A. All of the engines are defective.

C. None of the engines are defective.

D. At most one of the engines is defective.

The random variable given in the accompanying table is because

there are a finite number of values.

there are infinitely many values

P(x) cannot represent probabilities

the probabilities are all between 0 and 1

the probabilities do not add up to 1.
