Homework According to a report, \( 66.1 \% \) of murders are committed with a firearm. (a) If 300 murders are randomly selected, how many would we expect to be committed with a firearm? (b) Would it be unusual to observe 227 murders by firearm in a random sample of 300 murders? Why? (a) We would expect \( \square \) to be committed with a firearm.

A variable \( x \) is normally distributed with mean 21 and standard deviation 8 . Round your answers to the nearest hundredth as needed. a) Determine the \( z \)-score for \( x=27 \). \[ z=0.75 \] b) Determine the \( z \)-score for \( x=16 \). \[ z= \]

A random sample of 69 produced the summary statistics \( \bar{x}=0.326 \) and \( s^{2}=0.064 \). Complete parts a and \( b \). State and interpret the results of the test. A. Reject \( H_{0} \). There is insufficient evidence to indicate that the true population mean is less than 0.37 at \( \alpha=0.10 \). Bo not reject \( H_{0} \). There is sufficient evidence to indicate that the true population mean is less than 0.37 at \( \alpha=0.10 \). C. Reject \( H_{0} \). There is sufficient evidence to indicate that the true population mean is less than 0.37 at \( \alpha=0.10 \). Do not reject \( H_{0} \). Thefe is insufficient evidence to indicate that the true population mean is less than 0.37 at \( \alpha=0.10 \).

In a normal distribution, a data value located 1.2 standard deviations below the mean has Standard Score: \( \mathrm{z}=\square \)

A variable \( x \) is normally distributed with mean 22 and standard deviation 3. Round your answers to the nearest hundredth as needed. a) Determine the \( z \)-score for \( x=27 \). b) Determine the \( z \)-score for \( x=20 \). c) What value of \( x \) has a \( z \)-score of 2.33 ? d) What value of \( x \) has a \( z \)-score of -0.3 ? \( x= \) e) What value of \( x \) has a \( z \)-score of 0 ?

University researchers published a working paper. One of the objectives of the study was to determine whether ride-share drivers actually make a profit. Data collected from a sample of 1,126 ride-share drivers yielded a mean monthly profit \( \bar{x}=\$ 661 \) with standard deviation \( s=\$ 581 \). A ride-share company executive reports that \( \mu \), the true mean monthly profit of all its rideshare drivers, is \( \$ 1,000 \). Use \( \alpha=0.01 \) to test the executive's figure. Complete parts a through e below. b. Find the rejection region for the test. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box(es) within your choice. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) A. \( z \) < \( z>\square \) C. \( z<\square \) or \( z>\square \)
