Use R to answer the following question. Copy and paste the code and answer from R into your paper.
On the average,five cars arrive at a particular car wash every
hour. Let X count the number of cars that arrive from 10 AM to 11
AM. Then X ∼pois(lambda = 5). Also, μ = σ2 = 5.
What is the probability that no car arrives during this
period?
Suppose the car wash above is in operation from 8AM to 6PM, and
we let Y be the number of customers that appear in this period.
Since this period covers a total of 10 hours. What is the
probability that there are between 48 and 50 customers,
inclusive?

Use the given categorical data to construct the relative frequency distribution.
Natural births randomly selected from four hospitals in a highly populated region occurred on the days of the week (in the order of Monday through Sunday) with the frequencies 52, 64, 72, 55, 57, 45, 55. Does it appear that such births occur on the days of the week with equal frequency?
Construct the relative frequency distribution.

Yes, both the sample means will have a normal distribution.
No, both the sample means will not have a normal distribution.
No, only the sample mean with n = 31 will have a normal distribution.

Resistance training is a popular form of conditioning aimed at enhancing sports performance and is widely used among high school, college, and professional athletes, although its use for younger athletes is controversial. Researchers obtained a random sample of 3933 patients between the ages of 8 and 30 who were admitted to U. S. emergency rooms with injuries classified by the Consumer Product Safety Commission code "weight-lifting." These injuries were further classified as " accidental" if caused by dropped weight or improper equipment use. Of the 3933 weight-lifting injuries, 1648 were classified as accidental.
What is a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of weight-lifting injuries in this age group that were accidental?
The 98% confidence interval (±±0.001) is from to

A electronics manufacturer has developed a new type of remote control button that is designed to operate longer before failing to work consistently. A random sample of 20 of the new buttons is selected and each is tested in continuous operation until it fails to work consistently. The resulting lifetimes are found to have a sample mean of ?¯ = 1260.4 hours and a sample standard deviation of s = 116.1. Independent tests reveal that the mean lifetime of the best remote control button on the market is 1200 hours. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the new button's mean lifetime exceeds 1200 hours. Round all calculated answers to four decimal places.
1. The null hypothesis is ?0:?=1200. What is the alternate hypothesis? A. ??:?=1260.4 B. ??:?>1200 C. ??:?≠1200 D. ??:?<1200 E. ??:?>1260.4

We must be able to expect that at least 5 buttons will fail to work consistently. C. The sample must be large enough so that at least 10 buttons fail and 10 succeed. D. The observations must be independent. E. The lifetime of remote control buttons must be normally distributed.
