Question 63

Let X∼B(20,0.41)X\sim B(20,0.41)X∼B(20,0.41).

a.

Find P(3<X≤7)P(3<X\leq7)P(3<X≤7). Previous research found that 30% of a restaurant's customers order a starter. On one day, 7 of a random sample of 40 customers order a starter. For part (b), use H0:p=0.30H_0:p=0.30H0​:p=0.30, H1:p<0.30 H_1:p<0.30\,H1​:p<0.30 and Y∼B(40,0.30)Y\sim B(40,0.30)Y∼B(40,0.30) under H0H_0H0​.
