(04.06 MC) The 400-meter race times at a state track meet are normally distributed with a mean of 52.71 seconds and a standard deviation of 3.8 seconds. Using the Standard Normal Probabilities table, what is the approximate probability that a runner chosen at random will have a 400-meter time less than 53.4 seconds? (5 points)
Read Details(06.07 MC) A doctoral student wants to determine the relationship between steps per minute and the time it takes to walk 100 feet in minutes. Thirty trials are completed and the correlation coefficient between steps per minute and time in minutes is determined to be -0.543. Therefore, fewer steps per minute were related to longer time spans. How is the correlation affected if the units for time are changed from minutes to seconds? (3 points)

Using the Standard Normal Probabilities table, what is the approximate probability that a runner chosen at random will have a 100-meter time less than 15.5 seconds? (5 points)
Read DetailsYou have reviewed the prenatal/birth history of a newborn and find no area of concern documented. During the initial examination you note the child is symmetrically SGA and note features of a flattened philtrum, shortened palpebral fissures, and a thin upper lip. Based on physical exam, you are highly suspicious of:
Read Details(06.06 MC) Monthly grocery cost based on the average number of shopping trips is predicted using the least-square regression line, ŷ = 275.3 + 90.7x, where ŷ represents the predicted monthly expense and x represents the average number of trips. A shopper visits the grocery store an average of 3.2 times and has a monthly cost of $520. What is the residual for the shopper? (3 points)
