A problem experiment is conducted in which the sample space of the experiment is S= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}, event F={7,8}, and event G={9,10,11,12}. Assume that each outcome is equally likely. List the outcomes in F and G. Find P(F or G) by counting the number of outcomes in F or G. Determine P(F or G) using the general addition rule.

Solutions

Expert Solution

P(F or G) = P(F) + P(G) - P(F and G)

                = 2/12 + 4/12 - 0

                = 6/12 = 0.5

(Questions 1 and 2) An experiment is conducted. The sample size is 30. A sample average is observed. To test the null hypothesis that the population average equals a particular value versus the alternative hypothesis that the population average is not equal to a particular value, a two tailed hypothesis test is performed. (Critical region in the two tails). The test statistic— the sample average—is normally distributed. The stated significance levels for the test are 5% and 1%. In other...
