1a) Use Matlab to compute and simulate the roots of the following function; (i) 5x4+21x2−14x+30=0 (ii) x4−4=0 b). It is known that only 60% of a defected computer can be repaired. A sample of 8 computers is selected randomly, find the probability that; (i) At most 3 computers can be repaired. (ii) 5 or less can be repaired (iii) None can be repaired Based on your output for these, how will you have advised after a critical analysis from your output.

In a certain state the proportion of families living below the poverty level is 21 %. For samples of n = 750 randomly selected families, what is the probability that the sample proportion of families that live below the poverty level is within ±0.03 from the population proportion? z= (p-π)/√(π(1-π)/n) I got an answer of 0.9566. I am not sure if it's right. Can the problem be worked out so I can better understand it?
An efficiency study of the first shift (from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.) at a certain factory indicates that an average worker who arrives on the job at 8:00 A.M. will have assembled Q(t) = -2t3 + 8t2 + 10t MPEG Players t hours later. How many hours after the start of the shift is the worker performing most efficiently?
After studying the milk yields of a randomly selected sample of 900 cows, researchers felt that the presence of white spots (WS,) on a cow's body led to a different level of milk production (MP). The researchers estimate the OLS regression: Question He MP = 5.36 +0.12×WS;, (2.23) (0.08) where WS, is a binary variable of the form: 1, if the cow has white spots WS, = { 0, if the i" cow doesn't have white spots The 95% confidence interval for the coefficient B, is ( ). (Round your answers to four decimal places.) Based on this interval, we will Vthe hypothesis B, = 0 at the 5% significance level. Which of the following statements describes the way in which the coefficient of the indicator variable could be interpreted in this case? A. The coefficient is the rate of change in the milk production due to a unit change in the number of cows with white spots. B. The coefficient of the indicator variable is the slope of the regression equation. C. The coefficient is the difference between the…
An individual has a vNM utility function over money of u(x) = Vx, where x is final wealth. Assume the individual currently has $16. He is offered a lottery with three possible outcomes; he could gain an extra $9, lose $7, or not lose or gain anything. There is a 15% probability that he will win the extra $9. What probability, p, of losing $7 would make the individual indifferent between to play and to not play the lottery? (Make sure to answer in the form, 0.X, i.e. 0.25) Enter your answer here
For the M/M/N/o system, the probability that an arrival will find all servers busy and will be forced to wait in queue is an important measure of performance of the M/M/N/∞ system. This probability is given by PQ N!(1 – p/N) | and is known as the Erlang C formula. Please derive the equation. What is the expected number of customers waiting in the queue (not in service)?

In this problem, we consider target detection in a radar system. Upon observing a realization a of the random variable X which represents the return signal in noise, a decision has to be made as to whether the target is present or absent. The target amplitude is known and equal to A > 0. The observation is made in zero-mean Gaussian noise W whose variance is known and equal to 2. If the target is present (hypothesis H1), X = A+W. If the target is absent (hypothesis Ho), X = W . The likelihood ratio test for this problem is stated as follows: If fi (x)/fo(x) > n= decide in favor of H1; otherwise, decide in favor of Ho.lf n = 1, determine the probability of correct detection (target declared present when indeed present) and the probability of false alarm (target declared present when in fact absent). Express these probabilities in terms of the ratio a = A/o. If a = 4, which of the following represents the correct probabilities of false alarm and correct detection, respectively? O None of…
The complement of an event is all possible outcomes not in the event. For example: If A = at least 3 girls are born to a family with 6 kids. Then A' = A compliment is what happens if there are not at least 3 girls = less than 3 girls born to the family. A useful formula: P(A) + P(A' ) = 1 or P(A') = 1 - P(A). If P(A) = 0.194, what is P(A')?
