1. The lengths of pregnancies are normally distributed with a mean of 267 days and a standard deviation of 15 days. If 50 women are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean pregnancy between 266 days and 269 days. 2. A car-wash operator counts the number of cars arriving at the premises and finds that, on average, there are 8 per hour. Find the probability that there are at least two cars in the car- wash in any 30-minues period.

41 In most of Europe and Asia annual automobile insurance is determined by the bonus malus system. Each policyholder is givena number (state) and the policy premium is determined as a function of this state. A policy holder's state changes from year to year in response to the number of claims made by the policy holder. Suppose the number of dlaims made by a particular policyholder in any given year, is a Poisson random variable with parameter A. Let. sj(k) be the next state of a policyholder who was in state i in the previous year and who made k claims in that year. The following table is a simplified Bonus-Malus system having 4 states Next state if Annual Premium State O claims 1 claim 2 claims 3 or more claims 1 200 1 3 4 250 3 4 4 4. 4. 400 2 600 3 4 4 4. 4 For A=2 A.

World Series odds Consider two teams, A and B, playing a series of games until one of the teams wins n games. Assume that the probability ofA winning a game is the same for each game and equal to p, and the probability of A losing a game is q = 1− p. (Hence, there are no ties.) Let P(i, j) be the probability of A winning the series if A needs i more games to win the series and B needs j more games to win the series. a. Set up a recurrence relation for P(i, j) that can be used by a dynamic programming algorithm. b. Find the probability of team A winning a seven-game series if the proba-bility of it winning a game is 0.4. c. Write pseudocode of the dynamic programming algorithm for solving this problem and determine its time and space efficiencies.
