Dominoz Airlines: Dominoz Pizza decides to expand into the airline industry. Knowing that peopie are tired of late flights, and in line with its Pizza delivery policy, they decide that when an airplane waits on the runway, the company will pay each customer a fee if the waiting time is more than 2 hours. Given that the wait time can be modelled by an exponential random variable X with aver age 1.25 hours. If the waiting time is more than 2 hours then each customer gets 100X – 200. (a) What 's the probability that X will be 2.5? (b) What is the CDF of X? (c) What's the probability that X <2 (d) are 50 passengers. What is the amount that the company expects to pay the customers on the plane given there

A team of researchers would like to determine whether the number of households that use the internet for more than an hour a day is greater in large cities or small towns. To do so, the researchers take two random samples. The first sample consists of randomly selected people who live in cities with more than 500,000 people around the country. The second sample consists of randomly selected people who live in towns with fewer than 20,000 people. Are these samples dependent or independent? Select the correct answer below: O These samples are independent. O These samples are dependent. Not enough information is provided to determine independence.
A small river is found to be polluted due to the chemical waste from two major industries, A and B. Due to the strict standards enforced by the EPA, the probability of controlling the pollutions from A and B are 0.7 and 0.85, respectively, in the next two years. It is estimated that, if only one of the industries complies with the strict standards of EPA, there is a 75 percent probability of controlling the pollution in the river to an acceptable level. (a) Find the probability of controlling the pollution in the river in the next two years. (b) If the pollution in the river is not controlled in the next two years, what is the probability that it is caused entirely by industry A?
A study was conducted to investigate whether local car mechanics charge women more than men for an alternator repair. The researcher selected randomly one man and one woman from everyone who had used the same mechanic for the same alternator repair. The process was repeated for a total of six selected randomly cars. The repair prices and the differences (Women – Men) are shown in the table. Do the data provide convincing statistical evidence that women pay more than men for the same alternator repair?
An anger-management course claims that, after completing its seminar, participants will lose their tempers less often. Always a skeptic, you decide to test this claim. A random sample of 12 seminar participants is chosen, and these participants are asked to record the number of times that they lost their tempers in the two weeks prior to the course. After the course is over, the same participants are asked to record the number of times that they lost their tempers in the next two weeks. The following table lists the results of the survey. Using these data, test the claim at the 0.01 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let participants before completing the anger-management course be Population 1 and let participants after completing the anger-management course be Population 2.

Both flu and covid produce fevers. You know from past research that 10% of the population gets flu each year, but it is possible to get both covid and flu. Assume that the probability of getting flu and covid are independent. If this year the percentage of people reporting fever is 20%, what percentage of the population has covid? Studies show that due to similar transmission of flu and covid, someone who has covid has a 20% chance of also getting flu. What then is the probability of someone who has flu also having covid? Given the conditional information above, what is a better estimate of the percentage of people who have covid given the 20% fever reporting?
A project has a 60% of super success earning $50,000, a 15% chance of mediocre success earning $20,000, and a 25% probability of failure losing $30,000. What is the EMV of the project?

In the last week of the semester, Stéphane decides to “reward” the students by no longer limiting himself to 4 exercises and instead assigning every activity he writes. If a student with a 60% chance of correctly answering an exercise is expected to answer three correctly, what is the probability that Stéphane did not have a visitor that week?
On our way to work we encounter two traffic lights which operate independently of one another. If there is a 50% chance that we will be stopped by the first of the two lights, and there is a 40% chance that we will be stopped by the second light, what is the probability that we will be stopped by at least one of the lights?
Thank you. I'm not sure about the result for the second question. What I'm having a hard time with is the probability that a total of 30 of the 546 crashes have occurred in the 48 time windows. My data shows that crashes occurred in 25 of these 48 time windows, with 3 in one of these and 2 in three others.
A manufacturer makes two models of an item: model I, which accounts for 75% of unit sales, and model II, which accounts for 25% of unit sales. Because of defects, the manufacturer has to replace (or exchange) 5% of its model I and 10% of its model II. If a model is selected at random, find the probability that it will be defective. Please round the final answer to 2 or 3 decimal places. P(detective)=
