+ Use the following problems to prepare for the exam. + There will be in-class review on Thursday, February 12. + Your recitation this week will also be exam review. +
++ You will be allowed to use a scientific calculator (not a graphing calculator, not a calculator app on your phone). + You may not share a calculator with another student; you must use your own calculator. +
+ ++ You may bring a standard 3 in x 5 in index card with prepared notes. + You may use both sides of the notecard. + You must put your full name in the top right corner of the card, and turn it in along with your exam. +

+ Suppose a coin has probability 0.4 of coming up heads, and we flip the coin 100 times.

+ Suppose a fair die is rolled 100 times, and let
+
+ The heights of men in the US have a mean of 69 in and a variance of about 9 in
+ Suppose the heights of 30 men are sampled, and a sample mean

+ If the sampled group was women, estimate the probability that

+ Suppose we flip a coin 100 times and count 60 heads.
+ Let

+ Suppose in a sample of 100 people, 12 are left-handed. +

+ The weights of five mice are measured and recorded below. + Give a 95% confidence interval for the sample mean weight of mice. + (Pretend 5 measurements is large enough for the CLT to apply.) +

+ The heights of five plants are measured and recorded below. + Give a 95% confidence interval around the sample mean for the heights of the plants. + (Pretend 5 measurements is large enough for the CLT to apply.) +

+ In each of the following scenarios, determine whether we should use a 1-tailed test or a 2-tailed test. +
++ We have a coin which we've flipped many times, seeing an above-average number of heads. + We suspect the coin comes up heads more often than a fair coin would. +
++ We find a coin on the street and wonder whether or not it's a fair coin. +
++ We suspect there will be a difference in average weight of mice caught during the summer versus during the winter. +
++ In a medical study, a group of patients are gathered and the proportion experiencing particular symptoms is measured. + A new drug intended to eliminate these symptoms is administered, after which the proportion experiencing symptoms is measured again. +
++ Suppose we find a coin and wonder whether it's fair. + As a first test, we decide to flip the coin 200 times and count the number of heads. + If we see 112 heads, should we accept or reject the null hypothesis of a fair coin at a significance level of 0.05? +

++ Suppose we find a six-sided die and wonder whether it's fair. + As a first test, we decide to roll the die 100 times and count the number of times it comes up 1. + If we roll 22 1's, should we accept or reject the null hypothesis of a fair die at a significance level of 0.05? +

+ Suppose a particular plant when grown outdoors has an average height of 39 in with a variance of 20 in
+ A farmer is testing an experimental new plant fertilizer that is supposed to increase the weight of a particular apple variety.
+ A control sample of 25 apples grown using the usual fertilizer have a mean weight of 75 grams and a sample variance of 90 grams
+ We have an established factory which produces coins that are close to fair. + We're opening up a second factory, and we'd like to ensure the machines are calibrated to produce coins which behave similarly to the ones produced in the established factory. + We pick one sample coin from each factory, and flip each sample coin 100 times. + The coin from the established factory flips 52 heads in 100 flips. + The coin from the new factory flips 62 heads in 100 flips. + Is this strong enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis that the two factories produce similar coins at a 0.05 significance level? +
++ A store owner wants to determine how much shelf space to allocate to each of the drinks that they sell. + They survey their customers about their favorite drinks. + Is the data below consistent with the null hypothesis that each type of drink will be equally preferred? +
+ ++ A particular drug is administered in 100 independent trials. + In each trial, the drug is administered to four people, and we count how many respond to the drug. + The table below shows how many trials have each different count of people who respond to the drug. +

+ Is the data consistent with a binomial distribution with parameter
+ What is the total number of people who have been administered the drug? What is the total number who have responded to it? What is the maximum likelihood estimation
+ Is the data consistent with a binomial distribution with the MLE value of
