1-floyd-chapter-2-problem-1-suppose-random-process-has-total-of-three-basic-outcomes-01-02-and-03-in-other-words-its-sample-space-is-s-010203-the-probabilities-of-02-and-03-are-05-and-04-res-94467

1. (Floyd, Chapter 2, problem 1) Suppose a random process has a total of three basic outcomes: o1, o2 and o3. In other words, its sample space is S = {o1, o2, o3}. The probabilities of o2 and o3 are 0.5 and 0.4 respectively. Let E be the event consisting of basic outcomes o2 and o3—that is, even E is said to occur if either o2 or o3 occurs. The probability of the complementary event to E is: (a) .1 (b) .9 (c) .8 (d) .2 (e) none of the above. 2. (Floyd, Chapter 2, problem 2) Two marbles are drawn at random and without replacement from a box containing two blue marbles and three red marbles. Determine the probability of observing the following events. (a) Two blue marbles are drawn. (b) A red and a blue marble are drawn. (c) Two red marbles are drawn. 3. (Floyd, Chapter 2, problem 13) A club has 100 members, 40 of whom are lawyers and 30 of whom are liars. A total of 60 members are neither lawyers nor liars. Out of all the club's lawyers, what proportion are liars? (Hint: To start your answer, draw a Venn diagram) 4. (Floyd, Chapter 2, problem 3) Three events A, B, and C are defined over some sample space S. Events A and B are independent. Events A and C are mutually exclusive. Some relevant probabilities are Pr(A) = .04, Pr(B) = .25, Pr(C) = .2 and Pr(B|C) = .15. Compute the values of Pr(A ∪ B), Pr(A ∪ C), Pr(A ∪ B ∪ C) and Pr(C|B). 5. (Floyd, Chapter 2, problem 4) A sample space S contains a total of five possible outcomes (‐elementary events‐) denoted by {s1, s2, s3, s4, s5} with associated probabilities of occurrence {.22, .31, .15, .22, .10}. The following events are defined: E1 = {s1, s3}; E2 = {s2, s3, s4}; and E3 = {s1, s5}. Find each of the following probabilities: (a) Pr(E1) (b) Pr(E2) (c) Pr(E1 ∩ E2) (d) Pr(E1|E2) (e) Pr(E2 ∩ E3) and (f) Pr(E3|E2).

A. 0.473 B. 0.135 C. 0.829 D. 0.865 E. 0.027 Question 2 of 8 The cumulative distribution function of X is given by: Which one of the following statements is incorrect? A. P(X > 2.5) = 1 B. P(X < 1) = 0 C. P(1.7 < X < 2.91) = 0.66 D. P(X = 3) = 0 E. P(X > 1.2) = 1 Question 3 of 8 Questions 3 and 4 are based on the following: A manufacturer produces lengths of plastic film. The rate at which the defects occur in the lengths of plastic film is 4.2 defects per 75-meter length. What is the expected distance (in meters) between defects, correct to 3 decimal places? A. 315 B. 4.2 C. 17.857 D. 0.056 E. 75 Question 4 of 8 If the probability that the distance between defects exceeds x meters is equal to 0.4, the value of x is: A. 0.218 B. 0.978 C. 16.362 D. 7.143 E. 9.122 Question 5 of 8 Question 5 and 6 are based on the following: The Road Safety Association monitors the traffic on Easter Sunday on the N3. Their records show that, on average, a vehicle passes the checkpoint every 36 seconds. It is assumed that cars pass the checkpoint independently of one another on this day. If a car passes the checkpoint at exactly 10h05, what is the probability that the next car passes the checkpoint after 10h06? A. 0.811 B. 0.189 C. 0.027 D. 0.973 E. 0.315 Question 6 of 8 Approximately how many cars are expected to pass the checkpoint during any given hour?

Referring to the above probability distribution, which one of the following statements is false? A. The value of k that makes p(x) a probability mass function is k = 1 B. The probability that X is more than -2 is 0.40 (correct to 2 decimal places) C. The standard deviation of X (to 2 decimal places) is 1.07 D. The expected value of X (to 2 decimal places) is 1.6 E. The probability that X is at most 1 is 0.93 (correct to 2 decimal places) Question 8 of 8 It has been reported that 70% of university students do volunteer work during their summer vacation. Four students are randomly selected. Which one of the following statements is false? A. The probability that exactly 3 graduates will not do any volunteer work this summer is 0.0756 B. The variance of the number of students who do volunteer work is the same as the variance of the number of students who do not do volunteer work C. The probability that at least 1 student will do volunteer work this summer (correct to 3 decimal places) is 0.992 D. The probability that at most 1 of the graduates did volunteer work in the previous year (correct to 3 decimal places) is 0.0756 E. The expected number of students who will do volunteer work this summer is 2.8

Q1) The length of time a person takes to decide which shoes to purchase is normally distributed with a mean of 8.54 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.91. Find the probability that a randomly selected individual will take less than 5 minutes to select a shoe purchase. Is this outcome unusual? A) Probability is 0.03, which is unusual as it is less than 5% B) Probability is 0.97, which is unusual as it is greater than 5% C) Probability is 0.03, which is usual as it is less than 5% D) Probability is 0.97, which is usual as it is greater than 5% Q2) Monthly water bills for a city have a mean of $108.43 and a standard deviation of $32.09. Find the probability that a randomly selected bill will have an amount greater than $155, which the city believes might indicate that someone is wasting water. Would a bill that size be considered unusual? A) Probability is 0.07, which is unusual as it is not less than 5% B) Probability is 0.93, which is unusual as it is greater than 5% C) Probability is 0.07, which is usual as it is not less than 5% D) Probability is 0.93, which is usual as it is greater than 5% Q3) In a health club, research shows that on average, patrons spend an average of 46.2 minutes on the treadmill, with a standard deviation of 4.8 minutes. It is assumed that this is a normally distributed variable. Find the probability that a randomly selected individual would spend between 30 and 40 minutes on the treadmill. A) 0.10 B) -0.010 C) 0.80 D) 0.90 Q4) A tire company measures the tread on newly-produced tires and finds that they are normally distributed with a mean depth of 0.84mm and a standard deviation of 0.35mm. Find the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a depth less than 0.24mm. Would this outcome warrant a refund (meaning that it would be unusual)? A) Probability of 0.04 and would warrant a refund B) Probability of 0.96 and would warrant a refund C) Probability of 0.04 and would not warrant a refund D) Probability of 0.96 and would not warrant a refund Q5) A grocery store studies how long it takes customers to get through the speed check lane. They assume that if it takes more than 10 minutes, the customer will be upset.
