7. When things are operating properly, a certain Internet bank can process a maximum of 31 electronic transfers every minute during the busiest periods of the day. If it receives more transfer requests than this, then the bank's computer system will become so overburdened that it will slow to the point that no electronic transfers can be handled. If during the busiest periods of the day requests for electronic transfers arrive at the rate of 210 per 10-minute period on average, what is the probability that the system will be overwhelmed by requests? Assume that the process can be described using a Poisson distribution. The probability that the system will be overwhelmed by requests is (Round to four decimal places as needed.) Show your work below.

The principle of redundancy is used when system reliability is improved through redundant or backup components. Assume that a student's alarm clock has a 19.1% daily failure rate. If the student has two such alarm clocks, what is the probability that they both fail on the morning of an important final exam?
4. In operations management, you learn that intermittent systems produce a variety of products one at a time (or in batches) to customer order. These systems contrast with continuous systems, in which a large number of homogeneous products are produced. One feature of intermittent systems is that new orders arrive at irregular intervals. For example, orders for business letterhead may come into the Ben Franklin Print Shop at the rate of .5 per day. What is the probability that the time between two orders is less than one day?

A major traffic problem in Baguio City can be seen in the intersection of Abanao and Maharlika. Let us assume that the probability of no traffic delay in one period, given no traffic delay in the preceding period, is 0.85 and that the probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period, is 0.75. Traffic is classified as having either a delay or a no-delay state, and the period considered is 30 minutes. Draw the transition diagram in 2 periods. (TREE DIAGRAM)
According to the Almanac of Questionable Statistics, Vol 4 (2012), the probability of a mass squirrel uprising in any given year is 0.07 and the probability that cats and dogs will sign a peace treaty allowing them to live together peacefully in any given year is 0.86. If we presume that these two events are independent, what is the probability of both happening next year?

The principle of redundancy is used when system reliability is improved through redundant or backup components. Assume that a student's alarm clock has a 15.7% daily failure rate. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. What is the probability that the student's alarm clock will not work on the morning of an important final exam? | (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. If the student has two such alarm clocks, what is the probability that they both fail on the morning of an important final exam? (Round to five decimal places as needed.) c. What is the probability of not being awakened if the student uses three independent alarm clocks? (Round to five decimal places as needed.) d. Do the second and third alarm clocks result in greatly improved reliability? O A. No, because total malfunction would still not be unlikely. O B. No, because the malfunction of both is equally or more likely than the malfunction of one. OC. Yes, because you can always be certain that at least one…
9. A law firm employs three types of lawyers: junior lawyers, senior lawyers, and partners. During a given year, there is a 0.1 probability that a junior lawyer will be promoted to senior lawyer and a 0.05 probability that he or she will leave the firm. Also, there is a 0.2 probability that a senior lawyer will be promoted to partner and a 0.15 probability that he or she will leave the firm. There is a 0.03 probability that a partner will leave the firm. The firm never demotes a lawyer. th Let Xn be the status of an employee at the n' year after he or she has been hired, it could be one of the three types of lawyers (junior, senior, or partner) or two types of leaving (either leaving as a partner or leaving as a non-partner).

A complex electronic system is built with a certain number of backup components in its subsystems. One subsystem has four identical components, each with a probability of .2 of failing in less than 1000 hours. The subsystem will operate if any two of the four components areoperating. Assume that the components operate independently. Find the probability that;(a) Exactly two of the four components last longer than 1000 hours. (b) The subsystem operates longer than 1000 hours
