What is the interval form of $|x-5|<0.25$ ?
  • $(4.75,5.25)$
  • B
    $(-4.75,5.25)$
  • C
    $(-5.25,-4.75)$
  • D
    $(-5.25,4.75)$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$(4.75,5.25)$
$(4.75,5.25)$
$\text { Modulus form } $ $=|x-a|<8 $
                             $=|x-5|<0.25 $
                          $a  =5, \delta=0.25$

$\text { Interval form }$  $=(a-\delta, a+\delta)$
                            $ =(5-0.25,5+0.25)$
                            $ =(4.75,5.25)$

If the distribution of normal variable is shown as $N(20,4)$, then which of the following intervals incluces $99.73 \%$ of observations ?
  • A
    $(18,22)$
  • B
    $(16,24)$
  • $(14,26)$
  • D
    $(12,28)$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$(14,26)$
$(14,26)$Here, $N(20,4)=N\left(\mu, S^2\right)$
$\mu=20, \sigma=4 ;$ $\therefore=2$
For, $99.73 \%$ of observations
$\therefore(20-3(2),20+3(2))$

  • A
    $5$
  • $3$
  • C
    $9$
  • D
    $7$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$3$
$33$ for positively skewed distribution $p<0.5$
Mean $=n p, n=10, p<0.5$
$\therefore n p \leq 0.5 \quad n p=3$
