According to a recent pol, 29 % of adults in a certain area have high levels of cholesterol. They report that such elevated levels "could be financially devastating to the regions healthcare system" and are a major concern to health insurance providers. Assume the standard deviation from the recent studies is accurate and known. According to recent studies, cholesterol levels in healthy adults from the area average about 205 mg/dL, with a standard deviation of about 25 mg/dL, and are roughly Normally distributed. If the cholesterol levels of a sample of40 healthy adults from the region is taken, What is the probability that the mean cholesterol level of the sample will be between 200 and 210

Amachine that produces a special type of transistor (a component of computers) has a 2% defective rate. the production is considered a random process where each transistor is independent of the others. (a) what is the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect? (b) what is the probability that the machine produces no defective transistors in a batch of 100? (c) on average, how many transistors would you expect to be produced before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (d) another machine that also produces transistors has a 5% defective rate where each transistor is produced independent of the others. on average how many transistors would you expect to be produced with this machine before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (e) based on your answers to parts (c) and (d), how does increasing the probability of an event a↵ect the mean and standard deviation of the wait time until success?
