4. The World Almanac and Book of Facts 2004 reported the percent of people
not covered by health insurance in the 50 states and Washington, D.C., for the
year 2002. Computer output gives these summary statistics for the percent of
people not covered by health insurance:
b. Were any of the states outliers? Explain how you made your decision.
5. Costs for standard veterinary services at a local animal hospital follow a
Normal model with a mean of $80 and a standard deviation of $20.
a. Draw and clearly label this model.
c. What percent of all veterinary bills cost between $40 and $100?
The graph below shows the relationship between the diameter of a maple tree in
inches and it’s age.
9. Assume that 70% of teenagers who vape in the bathroom get caught. Of those
who get caught, 95% quit vaping before turning 18 years old; of those who
do not get caught, only 30% quit vaping before turning 18 years old. What is
the probability that a teenager who quit vaping was not caught? (YOU MUST
INCLUDE PROBABILITY NOTATION AND A DIAGRAM)
10. The pie chart below shows the breakdown of student participation in after
school activities at The Regional. If there are 600 students this year, how
many participated in sports? Show all your work.
11. A fast food restaurant just leased a new freezer and food fryer for three years. The
service contract for the freezer offers unlimited repairs for a fee of $125 a year
plus a $35 service charge for each repair needed. The restaurant’s research
suggested that during a given year 80% of these freezers need no repairs, 11%
needed to be serviced once, 5% twice, 4% three times, and none required more
than three repairs.
a. Find the expected number of repairs this kind of freezer is expected to
need each year. Show your work.
c. What are the mean and standard deviation of the restaurant’s annual
expense for the service contract?
d. How many times should the restaurant expect to have to get this freezer
repaired over the three-year term of the lease?
f. 95% of the time, the restaurant should expect to pay about how much in a
year?
