00 AM
1. In a certain residential suburb, 60% of all households subscribe to the metropolitan newspaper published in a nearby city, 80% subscribe to the local afternoon paper and 50% of all households subscribe to both papers. If a household is selected at random, what is the probability that it subscribes to: a. At least one of the two newspapers b. Exactly one of the two newspapers Forty percent of the homes constructed in the Quail Creek area include a security system. Three home are selected at random. What is the probability a. All three of selected homes have a security system b. None of the three selected homes have a security system c. At least one of the three selected home has a security system d. Did you assume the events to be dependent or independent Refer to Exercise 2, but assume there are 10 homes in the Quail Creek area and four of them have a security system. Three home are selected at random. What is the probability a. All three of selected homes have a security system b. None of the three selected homes have a security system c. At least one of the three selected home has a security system d. Did you assume the events to be dependent or independent Suppose that 20% of all copies of a particular textbook fail a certain binding strength test. If X denote the number among 15 randomly selected copies that fail the test, what is the probability: a. that at most 8 fail the test b. that exactly 8 fail the test c. that at least 8 fail the test d. that between 4 and 7, inclusively, fail the test In the Department of Education at UR University, student records suggest that the population of students spends an average of 5.5. hours per week playing organized sports. The populations standard deviation is 2.2 hours per week. Based on sample of 121 students, Healthy lifestyles incorporated (HLI) would like to make various estimates. a. Compute the standar error of sample mean b. What is the chance HLI will find a sample mean between 5 and 6 hours? c. Calculate the probability that the sample will be between 5.3 and 5.7 hours? d. How strange would it be to obtain a sample mean greater than 6.5 hours? The time that it takes driver to react to the brake lights on a decelerating vehicle is critical in helping to avoid rear-end collisions. Based on a research the reaction time for an in-traffic response to a brake signal from standard brake lights can be modeled with a normal distribution having mean value 1,25 sec and standard deviation of 0,46 sec. What is the probability that reaction time is: a. Less than 1,00 sec b. Between 1,00 sec and 1,75 sec c. More than 1,75 sec
