I need help with this please. Do not round the answer.
A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of aspirin tablets. The acceptance sampling plan is to randomly select and test 43 tablets, then accept the whole batch if there is only one or none that doesn't meet the required specifications. If one shipment of 4000 aspirin tablets actually has a 3% rate of defects, what is the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted? Will almost all such shipments be accepted, or will many be rejected? The probability that this whole shipment will be accepted is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

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?
Imagine that you are training to run a half-marathon and so every week you have 2 intense days, 3 light days, and 2 rest days. On your intense days you run 16 km, on your light days you run 5 km, and on your rest days you do not run. How would you model your miles run per day as a random variable?

The probability that no more than 1 of the 20 adults require eyesight correction is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
