Exercise 4.2 In the transmission of digital information, the probabilities that a bit has high, moderate, and low distortion are 0.01, 0.04, and 0.95, respectively. Suppose that n= 5 bits are transmitted and the amount of distortion of each bit is independent. 1. Find the probability that one bit has high distortion, one has moderate distortion, and three bits have low distortion.

Q7 A faculty member meets two students in Paris, one of whom arrives by train from Amsterdam and the other from Brussels at approximately the same time. The probability that the train from Amsterdam will arrive on time is 0.93. The probability that the train from Brussels will arrive on time is 0.89, and the probability that both trains will arrive on time is 0.87. What is the probability that at least one train will arrive on time?
4. A new procedure for the determination of sulfur in coal was tested on a standard coal sample with a certified value of 2.14% sulfur by mass. The new procedure gave results of 2.11%, 2.07%, 2.04%, 2.06%, and 2.16% for five separate determinations. a) Does the new procedure give the correct result at the 95% confidence level? b) Does the new procedure give the correct result at the 90% confidence level? c) Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), fill in the blank in the following statement: There is at least a % chance that the difference between the certified value and the values obtained by the new procedure is due to random error.

suppose that an airline has two flights each day from Toronto to Winnipeg; one scheduled at 9am and the other at 3pm. On any given day, the probability that the 9am flight departs on time is .81the probability that the 3pm flight departs on time is .68. The probability that neither depart on time is .21. Find the probability that the 3p flight does not depart on time. Find the probability that both flights depart on time. Find the probability that exactly one of the two flights depart on time.

Consider three classes (I, II and III) consisting of 30, 25, and 45 students. Suppose a student is selected from class I, then he has 10% chance to make an A. Assume that these probabilities for the class II and III are 15% and 20% respectively. If a student is selected randomly and has an A, what is the probability that he is from class III. Enter your answer to the nearest FOUR decimal places. 0.5715
The probability that a new computer functions for over 10,000 hours is 0.8, the probability that it functions for over 20,000 hours is 0.4 and the probability that it functions for over 30,000 hours is 0.1. If a new computer is still working after 10,000 hours, what is the probability that i. its total life will exceed 20,000 hours;ii. its additional life will exceed 20,000 hours?

Q1. Some couples planning a new family would prefer at least one child of each sex. The probability that a couple’s first child is a boy is 0.512. In the absence of technological intervention, the probability that their second child is a boy is independent of the sex of their first child, and so remains 0.512. Imagine that you are helping a new couple with their planning. If the couple plans to have only two children: What is the probability that at least one girl is born?
