Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2800 grams and a standard deviation of 700 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3000 grams and a standard deviation of 485 grams. If a 33-week gestation period baby weighs 2575 grams and a 41-week gestation period baby weighs 2775 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs less relative to the gestation period?
The baby born in week __ weighs relatively less since it's z-score, __, is larger/smaller than the z- score of __ for the baby worn in week __.

A telephone company claims that the service calls which they receive are equally distributed among the five working days of the week. A survey of 79 randomly selected service calls was conducted. Is there enough evidence to refute the telephone company's claim that the number of service calls does not change from day-to-day?
Days of the week | Mon | Tues | Wed | Thurs | Fri |
Number of calls | 18 | 14 | 15 | 18 | 14 |
Step 1 of 10 : State the null and alternative hypothesis.
Step 2 of 10 : What does the null hypothesis indicate about the proportions of service calls received each day?
Step 3 of 10 : State the null and alternative hypothesis in terms of the expected proportions for each category.
Step 4 of 10 : Find the expected value for the number of service calls received on Monday. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Step 5 of 10 : Find the expected value for the number of service calls received on Thursday. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Step 6 of 10 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Step 7 of 10 : Find the degrees of freedom associated with the test statistic for this problem.
Step 8 of 10 : Find the critical value of the test at the 0.005 level of significance. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Step 9 of 10 : Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis at the 0.005
level of significance.
Step 10 of 10 : State the conclusion of the hypothesis test at the 0.005 level of significance.

Let x be a random variable that represents the weights in kilograms (kg) of healthy adult female deer (does) in December in a national park. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal with mean μ = 60.0 kg and standard deviation σ = 8.6 kg. Suppose a doe that weighs less than 51 kg is considered undernourished.
(a) What is the probability that a single doe captured (weighed
and released) at random in December is undernourished? (Round your
answer to four decimal places.)
(b) If the park has about 2900 does, what number do you expect to
be undernourished in December? (Round your answer to the nearest
whole number.)
does
(c) To estimate the health of the December doe population, park
rangers use the rule that the average weight of n = 65
does should be more than 57 kg. If the average weight is less than
57 kg, it is thought that the entire population of does might be
undernourished. What is the probability that the average weight
x for a random sample of 65 does is less than 57 kg
(assuming a healthy population)? (Round your answer to four decimal
places.)
(d) Compute the probability that x< 61 kg for 65 does
(assume a healthy population). (Round your answer to four decimal
places.)
Suppose park rangers captured, weighed, and released 65 does in
December, and the average weight was x= 61 kg. Do you
think the doe population is undernourished or not? Explain.
Since the sample average is above the mean, it is quite likely that the doe population is undernourished.
Since the sample average is above the mean, it is quite unlikely that the doe population is undernourished.
Since the sample average is below the mean, it is quite likely that the doe population is undernourished.
Since the sample average is below the mean, it is quite unlikely that the doe population is undernourished.

An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 120 engines and the mean pressure was 7.1 lbs/square inch. Assume the variance is known to be 0.81. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 7.3lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the valve performs below the specifications?
State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

Question
Sampling is the process of selecting a representative subset of
observations from a population to determine characteristics (i.e.
the population parameters) of the random variable under study.
Probability sampling includes all selection methods where the
observations to be included in a sample have been selected on a
purely random basis from the population. Briefly explain FIVE (5)
types of probability sampling.
