if 5 of these prices were more than $200 per square metre, what is the estimate of the proportion of prices costing more than $200 per square metre?

yeah same.

i know that..
H0: B = 0
H1: B < 0
I thought the answer was wrong for this question. Shouldn't it be:

H0: B = 0
H1: B > 0 ?????????????

i think it will be:
H0:B=0
H1:B<0
and then use test stat. which is t = (b1-B1)/ S(b1) and then u can get -0.87, isnt it?
s (b1) is the standard error which is 0.7637.. anyways this is the way Tig told us, i went to see him 2day as well.................
errrrrrrrrrrr......but still dont know how to do condtional distribution, can someone tell? the qs like 45 (b)

conditonal probability is the probability given a ceratin circumstance. since all probability must equal one, you simply recalculate the probability based on the given factor.

If you post the question ill have a go.
the question:
suppose the average charge for out-of-court work by solicitors in NSW is $200 per hour with a variance of 860. a random sample of 49 solicitors in NSW was selected.
if the population variance were not known, but you knew that 1% of solicitors charge less than $193 what would be the value of the population variance?
