As items come to the end of a production line, an inspector chooses which items are to go through a complete inspection. Nine percent of all items produced aredefective. Ninety percent of all defective items go through a complete inspection, and 20% of all good items go through a complete inspection. Given that an item iscompletely inspected, what is the probability that it is defective? Round your answer to four decimal places if necessary. (Do not round intermediate values.) AnswerDefective | Inspected=

Let D denote the item is defective, I denote the item is completely inspected, and D' denotes the…

5.100 Tossing a die. You are tossing a balanced die that has probability 1/6 of coming up 1 on each toss. Tosses are independent. We are interested in how long we must wait to get the first 1. (a) The probability of a 1 on the first toss is 1/6. What is the probability that the first toss is not a 1 and the second toss is a 1? (b) What is the probability that the first two tosses are not 1s and the third toss is a 1? This is the probability that the first 1 occurs on the third toss. 4 (c) Now you see the pattern. What is the probability that the first 1 occurs on the fourth toss? On the fifth toss?
To solve: A manufacturer of high-tech computing equipment must decide whether or not to continue development of a new promising technology. continuing the development would cost $2 Million. If the development is continued, then a patent is either awarded or not. 70% chance that the patent will be awarded and The best estimate is that there is a a 30% chance that it will not. if the patent is awarded, the company needs to decide whether or not to license the technology. it does, it would receive a total of $25 million in licensing royalties. However, the company could also produce and sell the technology in-house (at. a cost of $10 million), in which case there is an additional uncertainty about the demand for the technology. if the demand is high (p = 0.25), the company would make $55 Million in revenues, if the demand is medium (p = 0.55) the company would make $33 Million and if the demand is Low (p = 0.20) the company would still make $15 Million. a) Draw and solve a decision tree…
2. A city had an unemployment rate of 7%. The mayor pledged to lower this figure and supported programs to decrease unemployment. A group of citizens wanted to test with 0.032 label of significance if the unemployment rate had actually decreased, so they obtained a random sample of 500 citizens to see what proportion of the sample was unemployed. Only 32 citizens in the above sample is still unemployed. What is the probability of Type II error if the actual unemployment rate is 6.5% please don't use software everything needs to be done by hand. Explain because I don't understand my professor. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.

Please no written by hand solution Kate recently invested in real estate with the intention of selling the property one year from today. She has modeled the returns on that investment based on three economic scenarios. She believes that if the economy stays healthy, then her investment will generate a 30 percent return. However, if the economy softens, as predicted, the return will be 10 percent, while the return will be -25 percent if the economy slips into a recession. If the probabilities of the healthy, soft, and recessionary states are 0.6, 0.2, and 0.2, respectively, then what are the expected return and the standard deviation of the return on Kate❝s investment? Calculate the coefficient of variation for this investment. (Round expected return to 3 decimal places, e.g. 0.125 and round intermediate calculations and standard deviation to 5 decimal places, e.g. 0.07680.)
QUESTION :- An insurance company would like to offer theft insurance for renters. The policy would pay the full replacement value of any items that were stolen from the apartment. Some apartments have security alarms installed. Such systems detect a break-in and ring an alarm within the apartment. The insurance company estimates that the probability of a theft in a year is 0.05 if there is no security system and 0.01 if there is a security system (there cannot be more than one theft in any year). An apartment with a security system costs the renter an additional $50 per year. Assume that the dollar loss from a theft is $10,000 and that the insurance company is risk neutral and the renter would be willing to pay more than the expected loss to insure against the loss of theft. For a security system to be effective the renter must turn it on whenever he or she leaves the apartment. Suppose it costs the renter $10 per year in expended effort to turn on the alarm system. What is the…
The promoter of a football game is concerned that it will rain. She has the option of spending $14,040 on insurance that will pay $39,000 if it rains. She estimates that the revenue from the game will be $65,040 if it does not rain and $30,040 if it does rain. What must the chance of rain be if buying the policy has the same expected return as not buying it? Write expressions showing the expected returns if the promoter does and does not purchase the insurance, using p to represent the probability of rain. Without insurance, E(return) = With insurance, E(return) = The chance of rain must be _%.
