Provide an appropriate response.Assume that male and female births are equally likely and that the birth of any child does not affect the probability of the gender of any other children. Suppose that 800 couples each have a baby; find (a) the mean: (b) standard deviation for the number of boys in the 800 babies: (c) Would it be unusual to have 800 couples give birth and 470 are baby boys?

Provide an appropriate response.The data below are the final exam scores of 10 randomly selected history students and the number of hours they slept the night before the exam. Find the equation of the regression line for the given data. What would be the predicted score for a history student who slept 7 hours the previous night? Is this a reasonable question?

Solve the problem.A human gene carries a certain disease from the mother to the child with a probability rate of 40%. That is, there is a 40% chance that the child becomes infected with the disease. Suppose a female carrier of the gene has four children. Assume that the infections of the four children are independent of one another. Find the probability that all four of the children get the disease from their mother. Round to the nearest thousandth.

Suppose you sell sandwiches at a deli store. Review of your sales transactions reveals that 73.5% of your customers choose turkey breast sandwiches, while the rest choose other sandwiches. (Round all answers to 4 decimal places). If five people are randomly selected, what is the probability that all will order a turkey breast sandwich? If five people are randomly selected, what is the probability that none will order a turkey breast sandwich? If five people are randomly selected sandwich. What is the probability that at least one customer will order a turkey breast sandwich? If five people are randomly selected sandwich. What is the probability that at least one customer will NOT order a turkey breast sandwich?

A guidance counselor at a middle school collected the following information regarding the employment status of married couples within his school boundaries. 0 children 1 child 2 or more children Total Only Spouse #1 Works 172 79 174 Only Spouse #2 Works 94 17 15 Both Spouses Work 522 257 370 Total (Round all probability answers to 3 decimal places) For a randomly selected couple, what is the probability that both spouses work? For a randomly selected couple, what is the probability that a couple has only 1 child? For a randomly selected couple, what is the probability that a couple has two or more children AND both spouses work? For a randomly selected couple, what is the probability that a couple has no children OR only spouse #1 works? Would it be unusual to select a couple at random for which only spouse #2 works? (yes/no)
