2. Two individuals, A and B, both require kidney transplants. If she does not receive a new kidney,then A will die after an exponential time with rate iA, and B after an exponential time withrate uB. New kidneys arrive in accordance with a Poisson process having rate A. It has beendecided that the first kidney will go to A (or to B if B is alive and A is not at that time) andthe next one to B (if still living)(a) What is the probability that A obtains a new kidney?(b) What is the probability that B obtains a new kidney?(c) What is the probability that neither A nor B obtains a new kidney?(d) What is the probability that both A and B obtain new kidneys?

1. Susan Sound predicts that students will learn most effectively with a constant background sound, as opposed to an unpredictable sound or no sound at all She randomly divides twenty-four students into three groups of eight. All students study a passage of text for 30 minutes. Those in group 1 study with background sound at a constant volume in the background. Those in group 2 study with noise that changes volume periodically. Those in group 3 study with no sound at all. After studying, all students take a 10 point multiple choice test over the material. Their scores follow test scoresS group 7 46 86 629 5 5 3 4 4 7 2 2 2 471 2 1 5 5 1) constant sound 2) random sound 3) no sound

2. Iconic memory is a type of memory that holds visual information for about half a second (0.5 second). To demonstrate this type of memory, participants were shown three rows of four letters for 50 milliseconds. They were then asked to recall as many letters as possible, with a 0-, 0.5-, or 1.0-second delay before responding. Researchers hypothesized that longer delays would result in poorer recall. The number of letters correctly recalled is given in the table for this between-subjects designs.

Freddy is the owner of Freddy’s fast fuel for Small Aircraft specializing in “Providing flight fit fantastic fuel” for small general aviation aircraft such as a Cessna 172. Freddy is experimenting with a fueling process involving new equipment and is trying to determine if the current process takes more time than the new process with the new equipment he is experimenting with. If the current process takes more time than the new process, Freddy will purchase some new, rather expensive fueling equipment to use across several small general aviation airports his company services. Freddy is comparing sample mean times to evaluate his hypothesis about the population (total number of aircraft fuel fill-ups). Over the period of a week, he took a random sample of fuel fill-up times using both the old and new processes. Using the information Freddy provided, you ran a t-test for independent samples. These are the results (α = .05). t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variance Current…
Digi-Key is a large distributor (but not manufacturer) of electronic components. They receive shipments of components from manufacturers and sell them on to other manufacturers, consumers, and hobbyists. An electrical fuse is generally a small device meant to protect other electrical components from damaging surges of electrical current. Suppose Digi-Key receives shipments of a particular fuse in boxes of 20,000 fuses. The manufacturer of this fuse claims that just 1 out of every 100 fuses is defective. Digi-Key draws 50 fuses randomly from each box and tests them using an error-free method. If it finds 2 or more defective fuses in its sample of 50 fuses, it sends that box back to the manufacturer and gets a replacement box. (Because there are 20,000 fuses in a box--much bigger than 50--you may treat this as if it is sampling with replacement even though it is not really.) Compute the probability that Digi-Key sends a box back to the manufacturer if the manufacturer's claim (that…
