Consider the following binomial experiment: A company owns 17 copiers. The probability that on a given day any one copier will break down is 11/100. Find the mean number of copiers that will break down on any given day.

The decibel level of sound is 50 db greater on a busy street than in a quiet room where the intensity of sound is watt/m2. the level of sound in the quiet room is db, and the intensity of sound in the busy street is watt/m2. use the formula , where is the sound level in decibels, i is the intensity of sound, and is the smallest sound intensity that can be heard by the human ear (roughly equal to watts/m2).

Afactory makes propeller drive shafts for ships. a quality assurance engineer at the factory needs to estimate the true mean length of the shafts. she randomly selects four drive shafts made at the factory, measures their lengths, and finds their sample mean to be 1000 mm. the lengths are known to follow a normal distribution whose standard deviation is 2 mm. calculate a 95% confidence interval for the true mean length of the shafts. input your answers for the margin of error, lower bound, and upper bound.
