HELP PLEASE!

Suppose a basketball player typically makes five out of eight foul shots.

1) How could a single foul shot be simulated?

A) Place three red marbles to represent as shot made and five blue marbles to represent a shot missed in a bag. Randomly pull a marble out of the bag to represent one attempt at a foul shot.

B) Place five red marbles to represent as shot made and three blue marbles to represent a shot missed in a bag. Randomly pull a marble out of the bag to represent one attempt at a foul shot.

C) Place three red marbles to represent as shot made and three blue marbles to represent a shot missed in a bag. Randomly pull a marble out of the bag to represent one attempt at a foul shot.

D) Place five red marbles to represent as shot made and five blue marbles to represent a shot missed in a bag. Randomly pull a marble out of the bag to represent one attempt at a foul shot.

2) How could you predict the probability of the player making at least one shot out of 3 foul shot attempts?

A) Carry out 30 trials where a marble is randomly pulled out of the bag. Count the number of failures and divide by 30 to estimate the probability of making at least one shot out of 3 foul shouts.

B) Carry out 30 trials where a marble is randomly pulled out of the bag. Count the number of successes and divide by 30 to estimate the probability of making at least one shot out of 3 foul shouts.

C) Carry out 30 trials where 3 marbles are randomly pulled out of the bag with replacement. Count the number of failures and divide by 30 to estimate the probability of making at least one shot out of 3 foul shouts.

D) Carry out 30 trials where 3 marbles are randomly pulled out of the bag with replacement. Count the number of successes and divide by 30 to estimate the probability of making at least one shot out of 3 foul shouts.

(20 points) a bank has been receiving complaints from real estate agents that their customers have been waiting too long for mortgage confirmations. the bank prides itself on its mortgage application process and decides to investigate the claims. the bank manager takes a random sample of 20 customers whose mortgage applications have been processed in the last 6 months and finds the following wait times (in days): 5, 7, 22, 4, 12, 9, 9, 14, 3, 6, 5, 15, 10, 17, 12, 10, 9, 4, 10, 13 assume that the random variable x measures the number of days a customer waits for mortgage processing at this bank, and assume that x is normally distributed. 2a. find the sample mean of this data (x ě…). 2b. find the sample variance of x. find the variance of x ě…. for (c), (d), and (e), use the appropriate t-distribution 2c. find the 90% confidence interval for the population mean (îľ). 2d. test the hypothesis that îľ is equal to 7 at the 95% confidence level. (should you do a one-tailed or two-tailed test here? ) 2e. what is the approximate p-value of this hypothesis?
