1. The ages and incomes of the 10 employees at Computer Services Inc.

are given in table:

Age Income
25 23500
30 25000
40 30000
53 47500
29 32000
45 37500
40 32000
55 50500
35 40000
47 43750

Compute the standard deviation of ages and incomes for these employees. Assuming that all employees
remain with the company 5 years and that each income is multiplied by 1.5 over that period, what will
the standard deviation of ages and incomes equal 5 years in the future?

mode for this distribution.

3. The mean daily intake of protein for a group of individuals is 80 grams and the standard deviation is 8
grams. Find the z scores for individuals with the following daily intakes of protein:

a. 95 grams b. 75 grams c. 80 grams

4.

Low IQ High IQ
Low creativity 75 30
High creativity 20 125

Above table gives the IQ rating as well as the creativity rating of 250 individuals in a psychological study.
Find the probability that a randomly selected individual from this study will be classified as having a high
IQ or as having high creativity.
5. Twelve individuals are to selected to serve on a jury from a group consisting of 10 females and 15 males.
If the selection is done in a random fashion, what is the probability that all 12 are males?

6. Ninety percent of the residents of Stanford, California, twenty-five years of age or older have at least a
bachelor’s degree. Three hundred residents of Stanford twenty-five years or older are selected for a poll
concerning higher education. If X represents the number in the 300 who have at least a bachelor’s
degree, give the conditions necessary for X to be a binomial random variable and identify n, p, and q.

7. In sociology study concerning family life, it is found that the age at first marriage for men is normally
distributed with a mean equal to 23.7 years and a standard deviation equal to 3.5 years. Determine the
percent of men for whom the age at first marriage is between 20 and 30 years of age. If X represents
the age at first marriage for men, draw a normal curve for X and show the shaded area for P(20<X<30)
as well as the corresponding area under the standard normal curve.

7. Seventy-five percent of employed women say their income is essential to support their family. Lex X be
the number in a sample of 200 employed women who will say their income is essential to support their
family. What is the mean and standard deviation of X?

8. The top medical doctor specialties in terms of median income are as follows: radiology, surgery,
anesthesiology, obstetrics, pathology, internal medicine, psychiatry, family practice, and pediatrics.
How many simple random samples of size 4, chosen without replacement, are possible when selected
from the population consisting of these nine specialties? What is the probability associated with each
possible simple random sample of size 4 from the population consisting of these nine specialties?

9. The portfolios of wealthy people over the age of 50 produce yearly retirement incomes which are
normally distributed with mean equal to $125,000 and standard deviation equal to $25,000. Describe
the distribution of the means of samples of size 16 from this population.

10. In problem no 9, find the probability of selecting a sample of 16 wealthy individuals whose portfolios
produce a mean retirement income excedding $135,000.

11. The average TV-viewing time per week for children ages 2 to 11 is 22.5 hours and the standard deviation
is 5.5 hours. Assuming the viewing times are normally distributed, find the following.

a. What percent of the children have viewing times less than 10 hours per week?

b. What percent of the children have viewing times between 15 and 25 hours per week?

c. What percent of the children have viewing times greater that 40 hours per week?
