Atextile fiber manufacturer is investigating a new drapery yarn, which the company claims has a mean thread elongation of 12 kilograms with a standard deviation of 0.5 kilograms. the company wishes to test the hypothesis upper h subscript 0 baseline colon mu equals 12 against upper h subscript 1 baseline colon mu less-than 12 using a random sample of n equals 4 specimens. calculate the p-value if the observed statistic is x overbar equals 11.8. round your final answer to five decimal places (e.g. 98.76543).

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), a subject is told that cards only the experimenter can see contain either a star, a circle, a wave, or a square. as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. a subject who is just guessing has probability 0.25 of guessing correctly on each card. a. the count of correct guesses in 20 cards has a binomial distribution. what are n and p? b. what is the mean number of correct guesses in 20 cards for subjects who are just guessing? c. what is the probability of exactly 5 correct guesses in 20 cards if a subject is just guessing?
