1. A company produces machine components which pass through an automatic testing machine. 5% of the components entering the testing machine are defective. However, the machine is not entirely reliable. If a component is defective there is 4% probability that it will not be rejected. If a component is not defective there is 7% probability that it will be rejected. a) What fraction of all the components are rejected? b) What fraction of the components rejected are actually not defective? c) What fraction of those not rejected are defective?

2. A political scientist developed a test designed to measure the degree of awareness of current events. She wants to estimate the average score that would be achieved on this test by all students in a certain high school. The administration at the school will not allow the experimenter to randomly select students out of classes in session, but it will allow her to interrupt a small number of classes for the purpose of giving the test to every member of the class. Thus, the experimenter selects 25 classes at random from the 108 classes in session at a particular hour. The test is given to each member of the sampled classes, with results as shown in the accompanying table. Number of students, mi Total score, yi Class 1 31 1590 2 29 1510 3 25 1490 4 35 1610 5 15 800 6 31 1720
