3 students apply to a PhD program.  The program rejects 25% of all applicants.  Students are accepted and rejected independently of each other.  Let the random variable X represent the number of the 3 students who get rejected into the PhD Program.   What is the probability that 1 student is rejected to the program if it is known that at fewer than 2 students will be rejected? (round your answer to 4 decimal places) (Hint: Binomial distribution with P=25% and n=3, and conditional probability)

In one study on the effect of Dyazide on blood pressure level, 25 subjects were randomly chosen to receive Dyazide and 25 were chosen to receive a placebo. These subjects were later examined to check for differences in their blood pressure levels. In a second study, 200 subjects who reported taking Dyazide for a long period of time had their blood pressure levels compared with those of 200 people who had never taken Dyazide. Which of the following statements is correct?

A biostatistician finds the relationship between the number of weeks (X) spent in a hospital and number of seizures per week (Y) and is described by the following equation: . This is based on a sample size of 50 patients and the associated coefficient of correlation is r = -.19. Using this information above, answer the following question: How do you interpret the slope of b1 = -.81?
