2. Assume adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
a. Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has IQ < 115
b. Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has IQ > 70
c. Find P30,which is the IQ separating the bottom 30% from the top 70%
3. a. When would the mean grade in a class on a final exam be considered a statistic?
b. When would it be considered a parameter?
c.. Define bias in terms of expected value.
b. Is it possible for a statistic to be unbiased yet very imprecise? Can it be accurate but biased?
4. a. Why is a 99% confidence interval wider than a 95% confidence interval?
b. When you construct a 95% confidence interval, what are you 95% confident about?
5. My parents lived in Florida and wanted to know the probability of winning the Florida
