A mail-order house implemented a quality control procedure, which they hoped would result in less than five unfilled orders on hand at the end of each working day. Frequent checks of unfilled orders at the end of the day revealed that the distribution of unfilled orders approximated a Poisson distribution. Suppose that the average number of unfilled orders is 2 and calculate the probability of having fewer than five unfilled orders at the end of each day. Express your answer as a percentage rounded to 1 decimal place. Your Answer: Answer units

The number of accidents that occur at a busy intersection is Poisson distributed with a mean of 4.2 per week. Find the probability of the following events. A. No accidents occur in one week. Probability = B. 4 or more accidents occur in a week. Probability = C. One accident occurs today.
In deciding how many customer service representatives to hire and in planning their schedules, it is important for a firm marketing electronic typewriters to study repair times for the machines. Such a study revealed that repair times have approximately an exponential distribution with a mean of 42 minutes. Find the probability that a repair time will last less than 17 minutes.

A psychologist believes that 65% of male drivers when lost continue to drive hoping to find the location they seek rather than ask directions. To examine this belief, he took a random sample of 350 male drivers and asked each what they did when lost. Assume that the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of male drivers who continue driving is at least approximately normal. If the belief is true, determine the probability that less than 60% said they continue driving. Show your work below
Which of the following distributions would be most likely to have a tail, and why? A. The GPAs of NMSU students, because some students have a 4.0. B. Class scores on a quiz, with 10 points possible, because the most common scores are 7, 8, and 9. C. The time it takes to install a new piece of computer software, because usually it’s quick, but occasionally it takes hours or even days. D. The amount of money you spend each month on food, because food prices change a little from day to day, and sometimes things are on sale.
Megan has purchased the insurance policy from an insurance company to cover the value of hers new car in case if it gets totaled for the price of $1500 per year. Megan's car worth $20000 and the probability of her totaling the car during the length of the policy is estimated to be 0.4%. Let XX be the insurance company's profit. Answer the following questions: 1. Create the probability distribution table for XX : XX outcome profit xx ,$ P(X=x)P(X=x) car is totaled car is not totaled 2. Use the probability distribution table to find the following: E[X]=μX=E[X]=μX= dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.) SD[X]=σX=SD[X]=σX= dollars. (Round the answer to 1 decimal place.)
