A biomedical research company produces 47% of its insulin at a plant in KC and the remainder is produced at a plant in jefferson city. quality control has shown that 0.7% of the insulin produced at the plant in KC is defective, while 1.35% of the insulin produced at the plant in Jefferson city is defective. what is the probability that a randomly chosen unit of insulin came from the plant in jefferson city given that it is defective?

A lightbulb manufacturer ships large consignments of lightbulbs to big industrial users. When the production process is functioning comectly, which is 90% of the time, 15% of all bulbs produced are defective. However, the process is susceptible to an occasional malfunction, leading to a defective rate of 30%. If a defective bub is found, what is the probability that the process is functioning correctly? If a nondefective bulb is found, what is the probability that the process is operating comectly? If a defective bulb is found, the probability that the process is functioning correctly is (Round to three decimal places as needed) CUP
Suppose a life insurance company sells a $250,000 1-year term life insurance policy to a 20-year-old female for $300. According to the National Vital Statistics Report, 58(21), the probability that the female survives the year is 0.999544. Compute and interpret the expected value of this policy to the insurance company.
Deer ticks can carry both Lyme disease and human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE). In a study of ticks in the Midwest, it was found that 15 % carried Lyme disease, while 11 % carried HGE. In addition, of the ticks with either Lyme disease or HGE, 16 % carried both diseases. (a) What is the probability P[L H] that a tick carrries both Lyme disease (L) and HGE (H)? P[LH] = (b) What is the conditional probability that a tick carries HGE, given that it has Lyme disease? P[H|L] =
Apparently, depression significantly increases the risk of developing dementia later in lift (BBC News, July 6, 2010). In a recent study it was reported that 22% of those who had depression went on to develop dementia, compared to only 17% of those who did not have depression. Suppose 10% of all people suffer from depression. What is the probability of a person developing dementia? If a person has developed dementia, what is the probability that the person suffered from depression earlier in life?
A test to determine whether a certain antibody is present is 99.2% effective. This means that the test will accurately come back negative if the antibody is not present (in the test subject) 99.2% of the time. The probability of a test coming back positive when the antibody is not present (a false positive) is 0.008. Suppose the test is given to six randomly selected people who do not have the antibody. (a) What is the probability that the test comes back negative for all six people? (b) What is the probability that the test comes back positive for at least one of the six people?
In a certain country, 47 percent of the population are on a strict diet. In a sample of 130 individuals, find the expected value and the variance for the number of individuals who are on a strict diet.

To study the hormonal regulation of a metabolic line, albino rats are injected with a drug that inhibits the synthesis of proteins in the organism. In general, 8 out of 30 rats die from the drug before the experiment is over. If 10 animals are treated with the drug. What is the probability that 4 or fewer arrive alive at the end of the experiment? What is the probability that more than 8 will arrive alive at the end of the experiment? Note: Answer with at least 4 decimal places
A state government hired a contractor for a road-construction project. The contractor's type, its cost efficienciency, is unknown to the government. There is 2/3 probability of the its construction cost being 3 (billion dollars per lane) and 1/3 probability of the cost being 5. More lanes yield more social benefit in the form of faster travel and fewer accidents. The social value V (measured in billions of dollars) from having N lanes on the highway is: V-15N-N?/2. The government is interested in choose N and writing a contract to maximize the benefit to the state (V) net of the fee paid to the contractor (call it F); G-V-F. Your goal as a government official is to design a pair of contracts to separate the types of contractor. You want the contractor to choose "Contract L: Build N lanes and get paid RL dollars" if its cost type is low cost of $3 (billion dollars per lane) and to choose "Contract H: Build NH lanes and get paid RH dollars" if its cost type is high cost $5 (billion…
For the same class you were asked to do some research on transfers bt two-year and four-year colleges. According to federal data on the year-round student population, in 2015-16 49% of all students completing a degree at a four-year college had been enrolled in a two-year colleges in the previous 10 years. If you take a random sample of 10 of these graduates, what is the probability that exactly 4 of them will have been enrolled in a two-year college in the last 10 years?
A drug manufacturer claims that their drug cures a certain blood disease 78% of the time. To check the claim, BFAD used the drug in a clinical trial of 100 individuals inflicted with the disease and decided to accept the claim if 70 or more are cured. What is the probability that the claim will be accepted when the cure probability is as low as 0.6?
A report to Health Canada indicated that an intensive education program was used in an attempt to lower the rate of lung cancer development among females. After running the program, a long-term follow-up study of 40a females was conducted, which revealed the current rate of lung cancer development is 7.a %. (a=1) Find the probability that 10 or less females have lung cancer development.
The Philippine Red Cross says that about 11% of PH population has Type B blood. A blood drive is being held at your school.
