The first significant digit in any number must be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9. It was discovered that first digits do not occur with equal frequency. Probabilities of occurrence to the first digit in a number are shown in the accompanying table. The probability distribution is now known as Benford's Law. For example, the following distribution represents the first digits in 231 allegedly fraudulent checks written to a bogus company by an employee attempting to embezzle funds from his employer.

(X - 100)/10 = 1.21852 X = [B]113[/B] rounded up c) Sample standard deviation is the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size 15/sqrt(100) = 15/10 =[B] 1.5[/B]

The patient recovery time from a particular surgical procedure is normally distributed with a mean of 5.3 days and a standard deviation of 2.1 days. What is the median recovery time? a. 2.7 b. 5.3 c. 7.4 d. 2.1 [B]b. 5.3 (mean, median, and mode are all the same in a normal distribution)[/B]

The relief time provided by a standard dose of a popular children’s allergy medicine averages 7.9
The relief time provided by a standard dose of a popular children’s allergy medicine averages 7.9 hours with a standard deviation of 2.2 hours. Use Table 1. a. Determine the percentage of children who experience relief for less than 6.4 hours if the relief time follows a normal distribution. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Using our [URL='http://www.mathcelebrity.com/probnormdist.php?xone=6.4&mean=7.9&stdev=2.2&n=1&pl=P%28X+%3C+Z%29']normal distribution calculator[/URL], we get Answer = [B]0.25[/B]

True or False (a) The normal distribution curve is always symmetric to its mean. (b) If the variance
True or False (a) The normal distribution curve is always symmetric to its mean. (b) If the variance from a data set is zero, then all the observations in this data set are identical. (c) P(A AND Ac)=1, where Ac is the complement of A. (d) In a hypothesis testing, if the p-value is less than the significance level α, we do not have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis. (e) The volume of milk in a jug of milk is 128 oz. The value 128 is from a discrete data set. [B](a) True, it's a bell curve symmetric about the mean (b) True, variance measures how far a set of numbers is spread out. A variance of zero indicates that all the values are identical (c) True. P(A) is the probability of an event and P(Ac) is the complement of the event, or any event that is not A. So either A happens or it does not. It covers all possible events in a sample space. (d) False, we have sufficient evidence to reject H0. (e) False. Volume can be a decimal or fractional. There are multiple values between 127 and 128. So it's continuous.[/B]

True or False: The standard deviation of the chi-square distribution is twice the mean.
True or False: The standard deviation of the chi-square distribution is twice the mean. [B]False[/B], the variance is twice the mean. Mean is k, Variance is 2k

Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the distribution for averages?
Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the distribution for averages? a. The mean, median, and mode are equal. b. The area under the curve is one. c. The curve never touches the x-axis. d. The curve is skewed to the right. Answer is d, the curve is skewed to the right For a normal distribution: [LIST] [*] The area under the curve for a standard normal distribution equals 1 [*] Mean media mode are equal [*] Never touches the x-axis since in theory, all events have some probability of occuring [/LIST]
