Suppose the distribution of serum cholesterol values in undergraduate men is approximately normal with mean ( = 190 mg/dl and standard deviation ( = 40 mg/dl. a. What is the probability of selecting someone at random from this population who has a cholesterol value that is less than 180? [pic] b. You take a simple random sample of n = 49 individuals from this population and calculate the mean cholesterol of the sample. Describe the sampling distribution of xbar

4. Risk Analysis 4.1. Objectives of Risk Analysis Typically‚ a project’s qualitative risk assessment will recognize some risks whose occurrence is so likely or whose consequences are so serious that further quantitative analysis is warranted. A key purpose of quantitative risk analysis is to combine the effects of the various identified and assessed risk events into an overall project risk estimate. This overall assessment of risks can be used by the transportation agency to make go/no-go decisions
