QR.S.8
Use properties of distributions, including uniform and normal distributions, to analyze data and answer questions.
Example Problems
Priya was testing versus with a sample of 12 observations. Her test statistic was . Assume that the conditions for inference were met.
What is the approximate P-value for Priya's test?
Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.
What is the approximate P-value for Priya's test?
Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.
The lifespans of foxes in a particular zoo are normally distributed. The average fox lives 11.2 years; the standard deviation is 2.8 years.
Use the empirical rule () to estimate the probability of a fox living less than 19.6 years.
