11. For the Binomial Distribution with n = 15 trials and probability of success in each trial p = 0.68
find probability of s = 10 successes.
Use online Binomial calculator: https://www.thecalculator.co/math/Binomial-Calculator-741.html
12. A basketball player has p = 0.74 probability to succeed in Free Throw.

Use online Binomial Calculator: https://www.thecalculator.co/math/Binomial-Calculator-741.html
13. For Normal Distribution with a mean μ=20 and a standard deviation σ= 4 find the probability
(a) that x is greater than 25
(b) that x is between 18 and 22 .
Use online Normal Distribution Calculator:
https://www.mathportal.org/calculators/statistics-calculator/normal-distribution-calculator.php
14. The GRE scores has Normal Distribution with a population mean μ =160
and a standard deviation σ = 24. What is the probability the mean of 36
randomly selected test scores will have a mean test score between 155 and 165?
(Tip. This will be a distribution of sample mean. Change σ from 24 to 24/√36).
15. A survey shows that 650 of the 1000 adult respondents believe in human activity driven global warming.
Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults believing in global warming.
Show work. Just the answer, without supporting work, will receive no credit.
16. A researcher claims the proportion of auto accidents that involve teenage drivers is less than 20%. ABC
Insurance Company checks police records on 200 randomly selected auto accidents and notes that teenagers
were at the wheel in 32 of them.
Use a 0.05 significance level to test the researcher’s claim.
• Identify the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.
• Determine z-value for the test statistic
• Use website https://www.socscistatistics.com/pvalues/normaldistribution.aspx
and determine the P-value for this test.
• Is there sufficient evidence to support the researcher’s claim that the proportion of auto accidents that
involve teenage drivers is less than 20%? Explain.
Show work; writing the correct answer, without supporting work, will receive no credit.
17. Perform a Hypothesis Test if regular excise really helps weight loss. Table below shows results for 5 people
doing 30- minute exercise every day for 6 months. Does the data below suggest that the regular exercise
helps weight loss? Apply significance level 0.05
Weight (pounds)
Subject Before After
1 250 240
2 240 235
3 215 210
4 220 200
5 200 190
• Identify the null hypothesis Ho and the alternative hypothesis HA.
• Create column for d-column for differences between weight before and weight after.
• Calculate mean (�̅� ) and standard deviation (s) for numbers in difference column.
• Determine the test statistic t =
�̅� − 0

• This is Chi-Square Test of Uniform. Identify Ho and HA.
• Given numbers represent Observed values (O). Expected values for Uniform distribution should
be the same for all 5 categories. To find Expected value (E) divide total number of answers by 5.
Create a table with O- and E-columns.
• Calculate (O-E)2/E for each category and find Chi-Square.
• Use website https://www.socscistatistics.com/pvalues/chidistribution.aspx and find p-value.
• Is there sufficient evidence to support Ho?
Show work; without supporting work, you will receive no credit.

20. A study of 8 different weight loss programs involved 160 subjects. Each of the 8 programs had 20
subjects in it. The subjects were followed for 12 months. Weight change for each subject was recorded. We
want to test the claim that the mean weight loss is the same for the 8 programs.
