Colorblindness is any abnormality of the color vision system that causes a person to see colors differently than most people, or to have difficulty distinguishing among certain colors (www.visionrx.com).Colorblindness is gender-based, with the majority of sufferers being males.Roughly 8% of white males have some form of colorblindness, while the incidence among white females is only 1%. A random sample of 20 white males and 40 white females was chosen.Let X be the number of males (out of the 20) who are colorblind.Let Y be the number of females (out of the 40) who are colorblind.Let Z be the total number of colorblind individuals in the sample (males and females together).Which of the following is true regarding the random variables X and Y? Both X and Y can be well approximated by normal random variables. Only X can be well approximated by a normal random variable. Only Y can be well approximated by a normal random variable. Neither X nor Y can be well approximated by a normal random variable.Question 2Type numbers in the boxes.10 pointsSuppose the time to complete a 200-meter backstroke swim for female competitive swimmers is normally distributed with a mean μ = 141 seconds and a standard deviation σ = 7 seconds.
