Two different rifles are tested at the shooting range. Rifle one was fired 190 times and the target hit 158 times. Rifle two was shot 140 times and the target hit 107 times. Use α = 0.05 for the following.
a. Is it reasonable to conclude the rifles are equally accurate? Provide the hypothesis tested, the rejection region employed, the statistic calculated, the p-value and the conclusion reached.
b. Provide the 95% confidence interval on the difference between the two proportion of targets hit.

Maria goes to a shooting range. Based on her previous times at
the shooting range, she believes she has a 53% chance of hitting
the target. Suppose that as part of a training exercise, she has to
take ten shots at a moving target.
What characteristics of this scenario indicate that you are
working with Bernoulli
trials?

What is the probability that she hits the 4th
target? (1 point)

The probability of a man not hitting the target at a shooting
range is .6. A success is defined as hitting the target. If he
shoots 12 times, what is the probability that he misses the target
just once? Do not use the table in the back of the textbook. (round
to the ten thousandths place) ____

A gunman-in-training is practicing his shooting at the range. He
holds his gun at the same height as his target that is 50 m away.
He shoots the bullet with a horizontal velocity of 100m/s and an
initial upwards velocity of 2 m/s. a) How much time would it take
for the bullet hit the target? b) How far above or below the target
does the bullet hit? (Don't forget to mention above or below) c)

1. A company produces and sells two different products. The
demand for each product is unlimited, but the company is
constrained by cash availability and machine capacity. Each unit of
the first and second product requires 3 and 4 machine hours,
respectively. There are 20,000 machine hours available in the
current production period. The production costs are $3 and $2 per
unit of the first and second product, respectively. The selling
prices of the first and second product are $6...

It should be tested whether a cube is fair or not. This tells
how many times the number 1 appears.
With a sample, a dice is thrown 720 times and it showed number
one 95 times. The null hypothesis is Ho:p =1/6. Probability of
error is specified α=0.05
a)Approximate the binomial distribution according to
Moivre-Laplace by normal distribution (without correction ).
b) derive a formula for the rejected area or accepted area.

Several students were tested for reaction times (in thousandths
of a second) using their right and left hands. (Each value is the
elapsed time between the release of a strip of paper and the
instant that it is caught by the subject.) Results from five of
the students are included in the graph to the right. Use a 0.10
significance level to test the claim that there is no difference
