Draw an appropriate tree diagram, and use the multiplication principle to calculate the probabilities of all the outcomes. HINT [See Example 3.] Your auto rental company rents out 35 small cars, 23 luxury sedans, and 42 slightly damaged "budget" vehicles. The small cars break down 14% of the time, the luxury sedans break down 7% of the time, and the "budget" cars break down 40% of the time. P(Small and breaks down) = 0.049 P(Small and does not break down) = 0.301 P(Luxury and breaks down) = 0.0207 P(Luxury and does not break down) = 0.2093 P(Budget and breaks down) = 0.168 P(Budget and does not break down) = 0.252 X X ✔ Nice! Nice job! Amazing work. Amazing job!

California Lotto officials want to try out a new "big wheel" game. This new game actually consists of two big wheels (spinners). The contestants spin Spinner 1, and then immediately after, they spin Spinner 2 to determine the "multiplier." When both spinners have stopped turning, the dollar amount shown on Spinner 1 is multiplied by the "multiplier" on Spinner 2 and the contestant wins that much money. $100800 20 50 150dp $1000 0.5 135° s5000 100 Spinner 1 Dollars Spinner 2 Multipliers What is the probability of winning the largest amount of money?

Draw an appropriate tree diagram, and use the multiplication principle to calculate the probabilities of all the outcomes. HINT [See Example 3.] It appears that there is only a one in four chance that you will be able to take your spring vacation to the Greek Islands. If you are lucky enough to go, you will visit either Corfu (30% chance) or Rhodes. On Rhodes there is a 40% chance of meeting a tall, dark stranger, while on Corfu there is no such chance. P(Go to Corfu and meet a tall, dark stranger) P(Go to Corfu and meet no tall, dark stranger) P(Go to Rhodes and meet a tall, dark stranger) P(Go to Rhodes and meet no tall, dark stranger) P(No vacation) = = || || || || =
Suppose I flip a fair coin n = 20 times. A psychic tries to predict the outcome before each flip. Three researchers have different ideas about the psychic's ability. There is Sydney, the Skeptic (S), who thinks the psychic's success rate is between 49% and 51%. There is Morgan, the Mark, M, who thinks that the psychic's success rate is 80%. And there is Carter, the Cynic (C), who thinks the psychic's success rate is 10%. Specifically: S+ 0 ~ U(.49, .51) M + 0 = .80 C0 = .10 %3D In all cases, assume the number of successful predictions follows a binomial distribution with success rate 0. Usek for the number of successes and n for the number of trials. Given all that: Determine the formula for the Bayes factor (a.k.a., likelihood ratio) supporting Carter over Morgan. Call that Bayes factor Bc:M Determine the formula for the Bayes factor (a.k.a., likelihood ratio) supporting Morgan over Sydney.
