Question 1

Decorate A store sells ornaments for Christmas trees. The prices of the ornaments are roughly normally distributed with a mean of $7.65 and a standard deviation of $1.45.
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected ornament will cost more than $10?
b. If eight ornaments are randomly selected, what is the probability that exactly 3 of them cost over $10?

Question 2

Wildlife scientists studying a certain species of frogs know that past records indicate the adults should weigh an average of 118 grams with a standard deviation of 14 grams. The researchers collect a random sample of 50 adult frogs and weigh them. In their sample the mean weight was only 110 grams. One of the scientists is alarmed, fearing that environmental changes may be adversely affecting the frogs. Do you think this sample result is unusually low? Explain.
