Suppose that of the 300 seniors who graduated from Schwarzchild High School last spring, some have jobs, some are attending college, and some are doing both. The following Venn diagram shows the number of graduates in each category. What is the probability that a randomly selected graduate has a job if he or she is attending college? Give your answer as a decimal precise to two decimal places. P=? What is the probability that a randomly selected graduate attends college if he or she has a job? Give your answer as a decimal precise to two decimal places. P=?
Suppose that whether it rains in a certain city tomorrow depends on the weather conditions for today and yesterday. Climate data shows the following: If it rained yesterday and today, then it will rain tomorrow with probability 0.52. If it rained yesterday but not today, then it will rain tomorrow with probability 0.24. If it rained today but not yesterday, then it will rain tomorrow with probability 0.43. If it did not rain yesterday and today, then it will rain tomorrow with probability 0.34. Over the course of a year, about how many days in the city are rainy according to the model? The transition matrix for this Markov chain is given below. P= 0.52 0 0.43 0 0.48 0 0.57 0 0 0.24 0 0.34 0 0.76 0 0.66 O Over the course of a year, there are about rainy days. (Round to the nearest day as needed.)
Assume that there are k people in a room and we know that: • A: = 5 with probability : • k = 10 with probability • k - 15 with probability a. What is the probability that at least two of them have been born in the same month? Assume that all months are equally likely. b. Given that we already know there are at least two people that celebrate their birthday in the same month, what is the probability that A = 10?
A cinema hall holds 100 people. The probability of individual transmission, that is, the probability for each individual in the cinema that they have Covid-19 and pass it to you, is 0.1. Answer the following question parts. (a) Calculate the probability that you contract Covid-19. [ Hint: start by finding the probability that you do not contract it. ] (b) The Cinema introduces a mask mandate, so that the probability of individ- ual transmission is reduced by a factor of 3. Redo your calculation that you contract the virus. (c) A new rule is introduced that everyone in the cinema must be vaccinated. This reduces the probability of individual transmission by a factor of 10. Redo your calculation that you contract the virus.
Suppose that the probability that a child living in an urban area in the United States is obese is 20%. If a social worker sees 15 children living in urban areas, what is the probability that 5 are obese? Enter response as .xxxx
A binary message (0 or 1) is communicated through a noisy channel with A as the message transmitted and B as the message received. Assume that A=0 and A=1 is transmitted with equal probability, and the received message is 90% correct of the time. With this, determine the joint PMF of A and B. Choose the answer for each question among the following: 0.05, 0.10, 0.40, 0.45. ii. 111. iv. P(A=1, B=0) P(A=1, B=1) P(A=0, B=1) P(A=0, B=0)
A company prices it's tornado insurance using the following assumptions: in any calendar year there can be at most one tornado in any calendar year the probability of a tornado is 0.15 The number of tornadoes in any calendar year is independent of the number of tornadoes in any other calendar year using the companies assumptions calculate the possibilities that there are fewer than 2 tornadoes in a 20 year.

Mustafiz has 95 balls which are labeled with the numbers from 1 to 95. He draws out a ball from the bag, records down the number and then puts it back in the bag. He does this a total of 3 times (hence has 3 numbers). Now answer the following questions. i. What is the probability that all the numbers are different? [Give your answer upto 4 decimal places] ii. What is the probability that at least 2 of the numbers are equal? (Give your answer upto 4 decimal places)
The month of September has thirty days. It is found on average that rain falls on twelve out of the thirty days in September. Assuming that it is equally likely that rain falls on any day in September, the probability that in any seven day period the first two days will be wet and the next five days will be dry is:
