Flying over the western states with mountainous terrain in a small aircraft is 40% riskier than flying over similar distances in flatter portions of the nation, according to a General Accounting Office study completed in response to a congressional request. The accident rate for small aircraft in the 11 mountainous western states is 3.5 accidents per 100,000 flight operations. Find the probability of no accidents in 100,000 flight operations. (Use 4 decimal places.) Find the probability of at least 8...

40 independent measurements of the boiling point of a certain liquid were found to have a sample average of 950C, and sample variance of 20C. The formula for converting from a Celsius temperature x to a Fahrenheit temperature y is y=9x5+32. Thus, the sample mean and sample variance of the measurements (on the Fahrenheit scale) are, respectively: 203 0F and 38.48 0F 203 0F and 6.48 0F 171 0F and 38.48 0F 171 0F and 2.54 0F 203 0F and...
