ai) Find the mean number of claims made by the sample of smokers and nonsmokers in the group separately.(i.e mean of smokers, mean of nonsmokers)
ii) What is the standard deviation of family size for this population of workers? (standard deviation of popuation) Standardize by converting your “X” values into “Z” values to see whether their historical values match up well with the new company. Use a Z table Hint: use the (ai) and (aii) values along with the means and standard deviations you calculated.
b) First find the Z-value for smokers.
c) And now the Z for nonsmokers.
d) Using your Z-table, find the probability that a nonsmoker will make fewer than 6 claims.
e) Next, find the probability that a smoker will make more than 11 claims.
f) Final Recommendation: This firm will be more risky than the current customer risk pool. True or False

Jobs are sent to a server at a rate of 2 jobs per minute. We will model job arrivals using a (homogenous) Poisson process. For each question, clearly specify the parameter value(s) of the distribution as well as its name. (a) What is the probability of receiving more than 3 jobs in a period of one minute? (b) What is the probability of receiving more than 30 jobs in a period of 10 minutes? (No need to simplify.) (c) What is the expected value and the variance of inter-arrival times? (d) Compute the probability that the next job does not arrive during the next 30 seconds. (e) Compute the probability that the time till the fourth job arrives exceeds 40 seconds.

Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1389 referee calls, with the result that 427 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 779 referee calls, and 227 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of male tennis players who challenged referee calls and the second sample to be the sample of female tennis players who challenged referee calls. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? A. Upper H 0: p 1equalsp 2 Upper H 1: p 1not equalsp 2 Your answer is correct.B.

Problem #2 You are a researcher who wants to know if there is a difference in the means of three different groups you have been working with to stop smoking. You have randomly selected 15 smokers and randomly placed them into three groups. Group one receives traditional treatment, pamphlets and videos on the health risks of smoking. Group two receives a fake treatment in the form of a daily pill, this is a placebo. The third group will receive motivational interviewing treatment within their weekly counseling sessions. All smokers in the three groups smoke on average 20 cigarettes a day. You hypothesize that there will be some difference between the three groups or within the three groups. Using an alpha level of .05, use the five-step approach to reject or fail to reject the HO: that all three groups will have equal means. Remember to report the P value as well. Critical values to determine the critical region can be found using table H on page 654. You must find the degrees of freedom for the numerator and the denominator. The following data shows how many cigarettes group participants smoked after eight weeks of treatment.
Group 1 Group 2 Group 3

We want to examine the effects of three different diet plans on later weight loss. Three different conditions were created:
Diet A - 5,6,7,4,2
Diet B, 10,6,9,8,5
and No Diet, 2,4,5,3,6
and each condition has 5 subjects.
After two weeks on the diet plan, participants’ weight loss was measured.
Is there a difference in the effectiveness of these diet plans?
