Question
Transcribed Image Text:**Identification of Distribution and Probability Analysis**
In this exercise, we aim to identify the appropriate statistical distribution to use for the problem at hand and then calculate the specified probability.
**Task**
Evaluate whether this event could be classified as "unusual."
**Instructions**
Identify the relevant variable and function.
**Scenario**
According to a survey, sixty-eight percent of adults would still consider a car brand despite product or safety recalls. You will randomly select 20 adults for this study. Your task is to find the probability that the number of adults who would still consider a car brand despite product/safety recalls is at most one.
**Required Information**
- **Distribution type:** _____________
- **Probability:** _____________

- I need help with this one please thank you.arrow_forwardYou want to know the probability that you will select a king of any suit from a deck of cards. You calculate the probability by dividing the number kings in the pack by the total number of cards in the pack (52) . This is an example for relative frequency?arrow_forwardUsing the data given below, determine whether it would unusual for a household to have no HD televisions. The number of televisions (HD) per household in a small town Televisions 1 2 Households 26 445 655 1474 P(x) 0.010 0.171 0.252 0.567 Choose the correct answer below. O A. It would be unusual because the probability of having no HD televisions is less than 0.05. OB. It would not be unusual because the probability of having no HD televisions is more than 0.05. O C. It would not be unuşual beçause 26 people have no HD televisions in the town. O D. It would be unusual because 26 people have no HD televisions in the town. Click to select your answer.arrow_forward
- A survey was conducted two years ago asking college students their top motivations for using a credit card. You think this distribution has changed. You randomly select 425 college students and ask each one what the top motivation is for using a credit card. Can you conclude that there has been a change in the distribution? Use a = 0.025. Complete parts (a) through (d). Response Old Survey % 29% New Survey Frequency, f Rewards 110 Low rates Cash back Discounts 23% 96 21% 109 7% 46 Other 20% 64 O B. The distribution of motivations is 110 rewards, 96 low rate, 109 cash back, 46 discounts, and 64 other. O C. The distribution of motivations is 29% rewards, 23% low rate, 21% cash back, 7% discounts, and 20% other.

What does this tell you about the skewness of the distribution? What measures of center and spread would you use to describe this distribution? a. The distribution is skewed left, so we should use the mean and the median to describe the distribution. b. The distribution is skewed left, so we should use the median and the IQR to describe the distribution. c. The distribution is skewed right, so we should use the median and the IQR to describe the distribution. d. The distribution is symmetric, so we should use the standard deviation and the IQR to describe the distribution. e. The distribution is skewed right, so we should use the mean and the IQR to describe the distribution.arrow_forwardUse the following table for the next two questions.
