a Semiconductor lasers used in optical storage products require higher power levels for write operations than for read operations. High-power-level operations lower the useful life of the laser. Lasers in products used for backup of higher speed magnetic disks primarily write, and the probability that the useful life exceeds five years is 0.95. Lasers that are in products that are used for main storage spend approximately an equal amount of time reading and writing, and the probability that the useful life exceeds five years is Scanned with CamScanner 5. Now. 25% of the products from a manufacturer are used for backup and 75% of products are used for main storage. Let 4 denote the event that a laser's useful life eeds five years, and let 8 denote the event that a laser is in a product that is used for ermine the following probabilities up.

A team of government researchers would like to determine whether a new tax on cigarettes has any effect on people’s smoking behavior. Specifically, they are expecting that by increasing the price of cigarettes, people’s will buy fewer packs of cigarettes (ultimately leading to decreases in cigarette smoking). During the year before the tax was imposed, stores located in rest areas on the state highways reported selling an average of µ = 410 packs per day. The distribution of daily sales was approximately normal. For a random sample of n = 25 days during the first year following the new tax, the researchers found an average of x̅= 380 packs per day for the same stores, with a standard deviation of s = 60. Is the sample mean sufficient to conclude that there was a significant decrease in cigarette purchases after the new tax? Use a one-tailed test with α = .01.
Future scientists: Education professionals refer to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics as the STEM disciplines. A research group reported that 27% of freshmen entering college in a recent year planned to major in a STEM discipline. A random sample of &5 freshmen is selected. Round the answer to at least four decimal places. Part: 0 / 6 Part 1 of 6 Is it appropriate to use the normal approximation to find the probability that less than 32% of the freshmen in the sample are planning to major in a STEM discipline? It is v appropriate to use the normal curve, since np = v 10 and n (1 – p) = 1 V 10. Part: 1 / 6 Part 2 of 6 Find the probability that less than 32% of the freshmen in the sample are planning to major in a STEM discipline. The probability that less than 32% of the freshmen in the sample are planning to major in a STEM discipline is|1. Part 3 of 6 A new sample of 130 freshmen is selected.

For the project above, suppose our rework loop was “longer.” That is, in the earlier question, we assumed that, after finishing A4 we have a 20% probability of going back to A3. Instead, assume that after completing A4, there is a 5% chance of having to redo A2 (and hence A3 and then A4), there is a 15% chance of having to redo A3 (and hence A4 as well). b) What is the probability of completing the project in 14 or fewer days? (Please enter the percentage of probability without the percentage sign)
QUESTION 3It has been established that soccer ace Fernandes chances of scoring a penalty is 70 percent all thetime. However, he is a streak shooter, and if he scores on one shot, his probability of scoring it on thepenalty shot immediately following is 0.85. But it has also been pointed out that another soccer starZlatan chances of scoring a goal in any game is 65 percent all the time. However, since he is a streakstriker, and if he scores in one game, his probability of scoring in the game immediately following is0.75.3.1.Write this in the probability notation. 3.2.Calculate the probability that Fernandes will score the penalties on two consecutive shots. 3.3.Calculate the probability that Fernandes scores a penalty because Zlatan has scored twice. 3.4.Are probabilities that Zlatan scores in second game and that he scores in the third gameindependent in this question? Explain.
Q. 1 t is estimated that 809% of emails are spam emails. Some software has been applied to filter these spam emails before they reach our inbox. A certain brand of software claims that it can detect 99% of spam emails, and the probability for a false positive (a non-spam email detected as spam) is 5%. Now if an email is detected as spam, then what is the probability that it is in fact a non-spam email? event A: email is spam; event B: email is detected as spam. Assume that
.A new, miracle diabetes drug that diminishes major symptoms of diabetes has been approved by the FDA. Health care professionals and researchers believe that the new drug will prolong lifespan of diabetes patients. If the population is in steady state and the incidence is constant, what will the effect of this new drug be on the prevalence of diabetes in the population? Explain.

A neuroscientist wants to know if physical exercise changes reaction speed in elderly people. A total of 14 older volunteer participants were found. One sample of n = 7 subjects received an exercise treatment, while the second sample (n = 7) of participants were given stretching lessons for the same amount of time per week. Reaction speed was tested on a computer program after six weeks of treatment. Reaction speed was measured in milliseconds. Data shown below.

In his doctoral thesis, L. A. Beckel (University of Minnesota, 1982) studied the social behavior of river otters during the mating season. An important role in the bonding process of river otters is very short periods of social grooming. After extensive observations, Dr. Beckel found that one group of river otters under study had a frequency of initiating grooming of approximately 1.7 for each 10 minutes. Suppose that you are observing river otters for 30 minutes. Let r = 0, 1, 2, ... be a random variable that represents the number of times (in a 30-minute interval) one otter initiates social grooming of another. a) Find the probabilities that in your 30 minutes of observation, one otter will initiate social grooming four times, five times, and six times. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) P(4) = P(5) = P(6) = b) Find the probability that one otter will initiate social grooming less than four times during the 30-minute observation period.
