Answer each question, most are T/F or multiple choice except for 3 fill the blank. Pretty easy will tip 100% if correct.

1-The binomial distribution is a discrete distribution that is applied to situations where n independent and identical trials occur, with each trial resulting in a success or failure, and we want to generate the random number of successes in the n trials.

14-The personnel department of a large corporation wants to estimate the family dental expenses of its employees to determine the feasibility of providing a dental insurance plan. A random sample of 12 employees in 2004 reveals the following family dental expenses (in dollars): 115, 370, 250, 93, 540, 225, 177, 425, 318, 182, 275, and 228. The sample mean is _____________. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean family dental expenses for all employees of this corporation. The upper boundary/limit is __________and the lower boundary/limit is ________. (Please keep two decimal points.)

15-La Cabaa, a popular motel chain in the southwest, is interested in developing a regression model that can predict the occupancy rate % of its motels. Currently, the company is interested in using two explanatory variables to predict occupancy. They want to use the amount of advertising in $ used by each motel and if the particular location a franchised location. Some regression information is presented below:

0.9567

0.3491

If we write the linear regression model as Y= a+bX1 + cX2, where X1 is Advertising, and X2 is Franchise, then from the above information, we can infer that a is _______ , b is _______, and c is _______. (Please keep three decimal points.)

The coefficient of determination is 0.2871; this represents ________percentage of the variation in the occupancy can be explained by this regression equation. (Please keep two decimal points.)

From the p-values, we may conclude that at 5% confidence level, all the coefficients are statistically__________ after refining the regressors. (Please only fill in "significant" or "insignificant".)

16-The charitable foundation for a large metropolitan hospital is conducting a study to characterize its donor base. In the past, most donations have come from relatively wealthy individuals; the average annual donor income in the most recent survey was right at $100,000. The foundation believes the average has now increased. A random sample of 200 current donors showed a mean annual income of $103,157 and a standard deviation of $27,498.

To perform this study, we should form a null hypothesis stating that the average is____________ 100,000. (Please fill in only one of the following: "less than", "less than or equal to", "equal to", "greater than", "greater than or equal to". Please do not use symbols.)

At the 10% significant level, the p-value/statistics is _____________(Please keep three decimal points) so we should__________________ the null hypothesis (Please only fill in "reject" or "not reject".).

Hence, we may conclude that the average ____________increased (Please only fill in "has" or "has not") and the probability that our conclusion is correct is at least_____________ percent.
