STATISTICS 1 Online Business Semester Genap 2022/2023 Exercise Soal 1 • An expensive restaurant conducted an analysis of the number of people at tables, from which this probability distribution was developed. • If one table is selected at random, determine the probability of the following events. a) The table has more than 4 people. b) The table has fewer than 5 people. c) The table has between 4 and 6 people (inclusive). Soal 2 • A shopping mall estimates the probability distribution of the number of stores mall customers actually enter, as shown in the table. • Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of stores entered. Soal 3 • A student majoring in accounting at Griffith University is trying to decide on the number of firms to which she should apply. • Given her work experience, academic results and extracurricular activities, she has been told by a placement counsellor that she can expect to receive a job offer from 80% of the firms to which she applies. • Wanting to save time, the student applied to five firms only. • Assuming the counsellor’s estimate is correct, find the probability that the student receives: a. no offers b. at most two offers c. between two and four offers (inclusive) d. five offers. Soal 4 • During the summer months (December to February, inclusive), an average of five marriages per month take place in a small city. Assuming that these marriages occur randomly and independently of one another, find the probability of the following occurring: a. Fewer than four marriages will occur in December. b. At least 14 but not more than 18 marriages will occur during the entire three months of summer. c. Exactly 10 marriages will occur during the two months of January and February. Soal 5 • U.s. news & world report’s ranking of America’s best graduate schools of business showed Harvard University and Stanford University in a tie for first place. • In addition, 7 of the top 10 graduate schools of business showed students with an average undergraduate grade point average (gPA) of 3.50 or higher (america’s Best graduate schools, 2009 edition, U.s. news & world report). • Suppose that we randomly select 2 of the top 10 graduate schools of business. a. what is the probability that exactly one school has students with an average undergraduate GPA of 3.50 or higher? b. what is the probability that both schools have students with an average undergraduate GPA of 3.50 or higher? c. what is the probability that neither school has students with an average undergraduate GPA of 3.50 or higher? Soal 6 • The amount of time it takes for a student to complete a statistics quiz is uniformly distributed between 30 and 60 minutes. One student is selected at random. • Find the probability of the following events. • The student requires more than 55 minutes to complete the quiz. • The student completes the quiz in a time between 30 and 40 minutes. • The student completes the quiz in exactly 37.23 minutes. • The lecturer wants to reward (with bonus marks) students who are in the lowest quarter of completion times. What completion time should be used for the cut-off for awarding bonus marks? • The lecturer would like to track (and possibly help) students who are in the top 10% of completion times. What completion time should be used? Soal 7 • The amount of time devoted to studying statistics each week by students who achieve a grade of A in the course is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 7.5 hours and a standard deviation of 2.1 hours. a. What proportion of A-grade students study for more than 10 hours per week? b. Find the probability that an A-grade student spends between 7 and 9 hours studying. c. What proportion of A-grade students spend less than 3 hours studying? d. What is the amount of time below which only 5% of all A-grade students spend studying? Soal 8 • A firm has monitored the duration of long-distance telephone calls placed by its employees, to help it decide which long-distance call package to purchase. • The duration of calls was found to be exponentially distributed with a mean of 5 minutes. a. What proportion of calls last more than 2 minutes? b. What proportion of calls last more than 5 minutes? c. What proportion of calls are shorter than 10 minutes? • E XE R CI S E S
