Candidates for a certain job have to pass two screening stages.
The probability of a candidate’s passing the first stage is 0.5. If
a candidate passes the first stage, he/she has a probability of
passing the second stage and getting the job. In a certain year
there were 3 candidates for the job. Denote by X the number of
candidates who pass the first stage, and Y the number of candidates
who pass the second stage. a) Develop the joint...

pollster decides to find the candidates electability by conducting
a survey vonsisting of 1000 participants. can the pollster assume
that the survey reaults would approximate a normal
diatribution?
a.
no because the sample is too small, and the data is discrete.
b.
yes, because the sample size is enough, the data is
continuous....

Suppose that 45 % of the population of U.S. voters favors a
particular presidential candidate. If a random sample of 75 voters
is chosen, approximate the probability that more than 35 favor this
candidate. Use the normal approximation to the binomial with a
correction for continuity. Round your answer to at least three
decimal places. Do not round any intermediate steps. (If necessary,
consult a list of formulas.) Problem Page Suppose that 45 % of the
population of U.S. voters...
