5.The percentage of students with a GPA of 3.0 or higher is 15%. Suppose the random variable X represents the total number of students with a GPA of 3.0 or higher in a random sample of 500 students.

a) Find the mean of X. (round to the nearest whole number)

b) Find the standard deviation of X. (round to the nearest whole number)

c) Determine the shape of the distribution for X. (letter only)

A) skewed-left, since .5″>
$p>.5$ and
$n$ is small.

B) skewed-right, since
$p<.5$ and
$n$ is small.

C) bell-shaped, since
$p=.5$ and
$n$ is small.

D) normal, since
$nâ‹\dots pâ‹\dots (1−p)â‰\yen 10$.

d) Based on your answers from parts (a)-(c), would it be unusual for 80 students in the sample to have a GPA of 3.0 or higher. (letter only)

A) Yes, since
$P\left(80\right)<.05$

B) Yes, since 80 is more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean

C) No, since 80 is within 2 standard deviations of the mean

D) No, since anyone can get a 3.0 or higher.

E) No, since
$P\left(80\right)â‰\yen .05$.

e) Based on your answers from parts (a)-(c), would it be unusual for 95 students in the sample to have a GPA of 3.0 or higher. (letter only)

A) Yes, since
$P\left(95\right)<0.05$.

B) Yes, since 95 is more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean.

C) No, since 95 is within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

D) No, since anyone can get a 3.0 or higher.

E) No, since
$P\left(95\right)â‰\yen .05$.

6.An insurance company sells 1-year life insurance policies for 40 year old males. The insurer pays out $10,000 in the event that the insured dies within 1 year of purchasing a policy, and charges a single premium of $30. The probability that a 40 year old male dies within 1 year is 0.23%.

Complete the following probability distribution for X, where X is the amount of money that the insurance company makes on the policy in the events that the man survives the year or dies within the year.

For column x, answers should be integers (positives or negatives of whole numbers; no decimals). For column P(x), answers should be decimals rounded to 4 decimal places. (do not include units for any answers)

event	x	P(x)
survives
dies

Find the insurer’s expected value of a 1-year life insurance policy for a 40 year old male. (whole number; round to the nearest dollar)
