2. You operate a polar research station; every morning, you send a radio message indicating which way the wind is blowing. The wind is likely to blow in any of 4 directions, which you indicate with the codewords "000", "110", "101", and "011". Due to the extreme weather, each bit (0 or 1) of the message independently has a chance of being flipped in transit: 1 changed to 0 or vice versa. What is the probability that when you send your message, the recipient receives "111" on their end?

An experiment is designed to see whether 3rd graders can write faster with a pen or pencil. Four third graders participate, 2 boys and 2 girls. For each child, a marble is drawn without replacement from a bucket containing 2 red marbles and 2 blue marbles. If a red marble is selected, the child gets a pen and if blue, the child gets a pencil. The children are assigned in this order: boy 1, girl 1, boy 2, girl 2. LetX be the number of boys assigned to a pen. Find E (X). Find SD(X). а. b.

Aidan is a goalie for his school’s hockey team. He normally stops 87% of the shots that come his way. In one particularly bad game, he let five of the 15 shots into the goal. He decides to cheer himself up by convincing himself that this game would be unusual for a goalie who stops 87% of the shots. He uses the table of random digits below using the rule that he will read across the row, two digits at a time, with 01–87 indicating a stop and 88–99 and 00 indicating a goal, until 15 attempts are recorded. 61373 70629 96541 81508 28214 06485 Which of the following statements about this random number table best describes the simulation? A. (61)(37)(3 7)(06)(29) 96(54)(1 8)(15)(08) (28)(21)(4 0)(64)(85) The underlined numbers in the random number table indicate saves, so in this simulation, Aidan stopped 14 of 15 shots. B.

At a carnival, an individual can win a prize by choosing a rubber duck from a pond with "Win" written on the underside of the duck. There are a total of eight ducks with "Win" written on the underside of the duck, and there are 17 ducks with "Lose" written on the underside of the duck. After each pick, if a prize is won, the duck is replaced in the pond. If a prize is not won, then the duck is again placed back into the pond. If an individual makes four picks, what is the probability the individual will win a prize exactly one time? (4) (0.32) (0.68) 1! 4! (0.32)¹ (0.68)³ O2(0.32)(0.68) (0.32) (0.68)³

They recruit 50 people who run on a regular basis to participate in their study. They will have the runners wear the shoes when they run for two months. After two O The subjects are numbered 1-50, and these numbers are put into a random number generator. The first 25 random numbers, ignoring repeats, represent the subjects assigned to the new model group. The remaining 25 subjects will wear the original model. months, the wear on the shoes will be determined using the depth of the tread and flexibility of the toe box. The wear between the new model and the original model will then be compared. The subjects' names are written on equal-sized slips of paper and placed into a hat. A researcher then reaches in and pulls out 25 slips of paper. These subjects are assigned to the new model group. The remaining 25 subjects will be…

If there were 500 farms and they grew wheat corn and oats. If 125 grew only wheat and 110 grew only corn and 90 grew only oats and 200 grew wheat 60 grew wheat and corn and 50 grew wheat and oats and 180 grew corn how would you figure out the number of how many grew wheat corn and oats which is V on the venn diagram and how would you figure the numbers for II, IV and VI
