A company employs three law firms to handle its legal cases. The probability that a case should be referred to office A is 0.3; that it is sent to office B is 0.5 and that it is sent to office C is 0.2. The probability that a case referred to office A will be won in court is 0.6; for office B this probability is 0.8 and for office C it is 0.7. Calculate the probability that the firm wins a case

Lydia is a project manager and submitted proposals for two different projects, Project X and Project Y to her boss. The probability of getting project X approved is 0.65. The probability of getting project Y approved is 0.77. The probability of getting at least one of the projects approved 0.90. The two projects are independent. True or False
The weather in a particular town in the Pacific northwest is classified as either good, indifferent or bad. If the weather is good on a particular day, the probability it will remain good the next day is only 11%, and there is a 45% chance it will be indifferent. If the weather is indifferent on a particular day, there is a 20% chance it will become good, and a 42% chance it will become bad. If the weather is bad on a particular day, there is a 48% chance it will be bad the next day, and a 21% chance it will become indifferent. Construct the stochastic matrix that models this problem.
In a population of 10,000, there are 5000 nonsmokers, 2500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 2500 smokers of more than one pack per day. During any month, there is a 5% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 4% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is a 9% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. How many people will be in each group in 1 month, in 2 months, and in 1 year? (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)(a) in 1 month:nonsmokers:1 pack/day or less:more than 1 pack/day:(b) in 2 months:nonsmokers:1 pack/day or less:more than 1 pack/day:(c) in 1 year:nonsmokers:1 pack/day or less:more than 1 pack/day:
A jet fighter consists of two engines. The probability that the second engine functions in a satisfactory manner during its design life is 0.97, and the probability that at least one if the two engines does so is 0.975 and the probability that both engine do so is 0.93. Given that the first engine functions in a satisfactory manner throughout its design life, what is the probability that the second one also?
Based on a study from the Chronicles of Flippin'' Awesomeness, the probability that Napoleon and Pedro make it to their first period class on time is 0.37. The probability that Napoleon and Pedro catch the bus is 0.66. However, the probability that they make it to their first period class on time, given that they catch the bus is 0.61. What is the probability that Napoleon and Pedro catch the bus and make it to their first period class on time?
You are interested in the number of people that will visit your restaurant in the noon hour. Historically, there is a 10% chance that more than 10 customers will visit, a 30% chance that more than 8 customers will visit, a 50% chance that more than 6 customers will visit, a 80% chance that more than 4 customers will visit, and a 95% chance that at least 2 customers will visit during the noon hour. What is the probability that 4 or less customers will visit the restaurant -- the number required to break even financially for the day?Express your answer as a percent value. So if your answer is 100% for example, enter 100. Round your answer to the nearest percent.
Machines A and B produce 40% and 60% respectively of the production of a component intended for the motor industry. The probability that machine A produces a defective component is 0.05 while the probability that machine B produces a defective component is 0.09.D. If a component is selected at random and is found to be not defective, find the probability that it was made by machine B.E. What is the probability to find a component that is not defective and it was made by machine A?F. What is the probability to find a component that is not defective and it was made by machine B?
