(05.01 MC) Mateo is baking a ham. He must make sure the ham has a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees so that it is safe to eat. Using a thermometer, he takes the temperature of the ham in four random places. The minimum temperature in the sample is 150 degrees. Identify the population and the sample. (4 points)
Read DetailsA beam has dimensions of b = 16 in., h = 22 in., and d = 19.5 in. and is reinforced with 4 No. 7 bars. The concrete strength is 9,100 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Determine the nominal moment capacity, Mn, of the beam.
Read Details(05.01 MC) Suppose we select a simple random sample of size n = 250 from a large population with a proportion p of successes. Let p̂ be the proportion of successes in the sample. For which value of p is it appropriate to use the Normal approximation for the sampling distribution of p̂? (4 points)

Read Details(05.02 MC) A nail fabrication machine makes nails with a target length of μ = 2.35 inches. The machine has some variability, so the standard deviation of the length is σ = 0.2 inch. The machine operator inspects a random sample of 10 nails each hour for quality control purposes and records the sample mean diameter, x̄. Assuming the process is working properly, what are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x̄? (4 points)
