13 refrigerators of a certain type has been returned to a distributor - 8 of these refrigerators have a defective compressor and 5 have less serious problems. A sample (without replacement) of 6 refrigerators are examined in random order, let X be the number of refrigerators with defective compressor among the examined ones. Answer all questions to 3 decimal places.
P(X = 4) =
| Tries 0/5 |
P(2 < X ≤ 4) =
| Tries 0/5 |
What is the expected number of refrigerators with defective compressor among the examined ones?
| Tries 0/5 |
What is the standard deviation of number of refrigerators with defective compressor among the examined ones?

Each of 12 refrigerators of a certain type has been returned to
a distributor because of an audible, high-pitched, oscillating
noise when the refrigerators are running. Suppose that 7 of these
refrigerators have a defective compressor and the other 5 have less
serious problems. If the refrigerators are examined in random
order, let X be the number among the first 6 examined that have a
defective compressor.

An investment has returned 13%, 6%, -7%, 4%, and 13% in each of
the last five years. If we decide to use historical returns as a
proxy for expected future returns, what is the expected rate of
return?

In the past, the mean running time for a certain type of
flashlight battery has been 9.2 hours. The manufacturer has
introduced a change in the production method and wants to perform a
hypothesis test to determine whether the mean running time has
increased as a result.
The hypotheses are: H O : µ = 9.2 hours Ha : µ > 9.2 hours
where µ is the mean running time of the new batteries Suppose that
the results of the...

A new design for the braking system on a certain type of car has
been proposed. For the current system, the true average braking
distance at 40 mph under specified conditions is known to be 120
ft. It is proposed that the new design be implemented only if
sample data strongly indicates a reduction in true average braking
distance for the new design.
(a) Define the parameter of interest.
μ = true average braking distance for the new design

Suppose that two defective refrigerators have been included in a
shipment of eight refrigerators. The buyer begins to test the eight
refrigerators one at a time. Let the random variable Y represent
the number of defective refrigerators found after three
refrigerators have been tested. Compute the probability
distribution of Y.
I did a similar problem to this but worked out a sample space
etc. and solved for certain probabilities however what confused me
then and what confuses me now is...

Historically the S&P 500Index has returned about 8% a year
but returns are very uneven as recent experience has reminded us -
the INDEX declined by more than 50% from its peak in2007 and took 7
years to attain that peak level again. Last year the S & P 500
Index gained over 30% but this year it declined by over 30% in
March alone. In contrast a typical Money Market Fund has returned
about 2% a year with minimal...
