Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False  True

Question 2

What is probability? What are its characteristics?

Accepted Answer

Probability is the likelihood that an outcome occurs.
Suppose we label the n outcomes in a sample space as O1,O2,…,On,where Oi represents the ith outcome in the sample space.Let P(Oi)be the probability associated with the outcome Oi.Then:
•The probability associated with any outcome must be between 0 and 1,or
$ 0 \leq P\left(O_{i}\right) \leq 1 $
for each outcome Oi
•The sum of the probabilities over all possible outcomes must be 1.0,or
P(O1)+ P(O2)+ ...+ P(On)= 1

Question 18

A manager was assigned the task of investigating the error in payments for routine purchases made by the purchasing department.The manager randomly selected 12 payments,investigated them thoroughly,and determined the payment error for each of these payments.The payment error was defined as the difference between the amount paid and what should have been paid.The payment errors determined for these selected payments were as follows:
   
a.What is the 95% confidence interval for the population mean payment error?
b.Suppose a recent company report inferred that the mean payment error may be running as high as $25.That led the manager to test the null hypothesis that the population mean payment error is equal to $25 versus the alternative that the population mean payment error is not equal to $25.Using a level of significance equal to 0.01,perform this hypothesis test.
c.Suppose another manager used this same data to test the null hypothesis that the population mean payment error is less than or equal to $15 versus the alternative that the population mean payment error is greater than $15.What is the test statistic for this hypothesis testing situation? What is the critical value at a level of significance equal to 0.01? What is the conclusion?
