TASK 1 On an average, 0.4% of the eggs would have broken
before arriving at a grocery shop.
If a sample of 5000 eggs is selected.
What is the DISTRIBUTION for above situation ?
A Normal Distribution
B Binomial Distribution
C Poison Distribution
D None is Correct
TASK 2 Use Normal distribution to approximate X ~ B(5000,0.4).
Which of the following is the correct approximation ?
A X ~ N (500, 0.02)
B X ~ N(2500, 0.2)
C X ~ N ( 2000,1200)
D None is correct
TASK 3 Choose the CORRECT STATEMENT ?
A Not less than 29 eggs were broken = P( X < 29)
B From 23 to 31 eggs were broken = P( 23 X 31)
C Between 24 and 27 eggs were broken = P( 24 X 27)
D Fewer than 28 eggs were broken = P ( X 28)
Apply “PETUA GIGI PALSU” to write an
TASK 4 APPROPRIATE Continuity Correction for P( 5 < X 8) .
Petua Gigi Palsu P ( 4.5 < X < 7.5 )
A
B P ( 5.5 < X < 7.5 )
C P ( 4.5 < X < 8.5 )
D P ( 5.5 < X < 8.5 )
456 789
The continuity correction for the probability
TASK 5 at most 30 eggs were broken?
Petua Gigi Palsu A P( X < 30 ) = P ( X < 30.5 )
B P( X < 30 ) = P ( X < 29.5 )
29 30 31 C P( X 30 ) = P ( X < 30.5 )
D P( X 30 ) = P ( X < 29.5 )
TASK 6 What is the continuity correction for
not more than 80 eggs were broken ?
Petua Gigi Palsu A P( X >= 80) = P ( X > 79.5)
B P(X 80) = P(X < 80.5)
79 80 81 82 C P(X < 80) = P(X<79.5)
D P(X>80) = P(X>80.5)
The probability of from m eggs to n eggs
TASK 7 is 0.9 . Which statement is correct ?
A P( m < X <n ) = P(m 0.5 < X < n 0.5) = 0.9
B P( m X n ) = P(m+0.5 < X < n+0.5) = 0.9
C P( m < X < n ) = P(m+0.5 < X < n0.5) = 0.9
D P( m X n ) = P(m0.5 < X < n+0.5) = 0.9
TASK 8 What is the continuity correction for
P( |X| < 40) ?
A P(40.5 < X < 40.5)
B P(39.5 < X < 39.5)
C P (39.5 < X < 40.5)
D P ( 40.5 < X < 39.5)
