A car insurance company insures drivers of all ages. An actuary compiled the following statistics on the company's insured drivers: Age Probability of an accident Proportion of drivers this age 18-20 0.06 0.08 21-30 0.03 0.15 31-65 0.02 0.49 66-99 0.04 0.28 (a) A driver that the company insures has had an accident. Calculate the probability that the driver is between the age of 31-65.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is an electronic scanning technology that can be used to identify items in a number of ways. One advantage of RFID is that it can eliminate the need to manually count inventory, which can help improve inventory management. The technology is not infallible, however, and sometimes errors occur when items are scanned. The probability that a scanning error occurs is 0.0063. Complete parts a through d. a. Find the probability that exactly 16 items will be scanned incorrectly from the next 4,600 items scanned. The probability is 0.0030. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) b. Find the probability that more than 16 items will be scanned incorrectly from the next 4,600 items scanned. The probability is 0.9937 (Round to four decimal places as needed.) c. Find the probability that the number of items scanned incorrectly between 14 and 16, inclusive, from the next 4,600 items scanned. The probability is. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
