A rapid HIV test that gives results while a client at a clinic waits is unfortunately less accurate than slower lab tests.Applied to people who have no HIV antibodies,one rapid test has probability about 0.004 of producing a false positive.if a clinic tests 200 people who are free of HIV antibodies,what is the chance that at least one force positive will occur?

You currently work for the DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. You've received reports of some strange things occurring in the small town of Hawkins, Indiana. Let U be a random variable equal to 1 if the citizen has been to the Upside Down and 0 otherwise. Let S be a random variable equal to 1 if a citizen reports being in the presence of a group of misfit kids who claim to be "saving the town" and 0 otherwise The table below shows the joint probability density function for the galactic population Share of Population 0.15 0.32 0.50 0.03 U 0 0 1 1 S 1 0 1 0 Round to 2 decimal places where necessary, unless otherwise stated.

One environmental group did a study of recycling habits in a California community. It found that 75% of the aluminum cans sold in the area were recycled. (Use the normal approximation. Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) If 389 cans are sold today, what is the probability that 300 or more will be recycled? (b) Of the 389 cans sold, what is the probability that between 260 and 300 will be recycled Please help- I have been working on this for two days!

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
A large ski mountain has a fleet of 4 snowmobiles it uses during the winter season. It believes that the time between consecutive repair operations for a single snowmobile is an exponential random variable with a mean of .75 weeks. There are two dedicated technicians that are capable of repairing the snowmobiles. A broken down snowmobile will be repaired by one of these technicians (when one becomes available) and the repair time of a snowmobile can be modeled as an exponential random variable with a mean of .4 weeks. (a) Describe a queueing system model of the repair operations of the snowmobiles by answering the following questions: What are the customers in the queueing system? What are the servers and what service is being provided? b) Provide the rate transition diagram of the birth and death process that captures the queueing system. Be sure to provide λn and µn for each relevant value of n and your logic behind any calculations used to obtain them (c) Provide the…
