A recent survey of 1040 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 634 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige. Estimate the probability (to the nearest hundredth) that a U.S. adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige.Step 1Recall that the probability of an event based on relative frequency uses the formulaprobability of event = relative frequency = fn,where f is the frequency of the event occurrence in a sample of n observations. A total of 1040 people were surveyed and 634 considered the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige. Therefore, the sample size is n = . The event of interest is that a U.S. adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige. Therefore, the frequency f is equal to the number of adults who the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige, so f = (0.6096 answer is incorrect.) .

Our servers have been running for 17 days, What is the probability that they will run for at least 97 days? (clarification: run for at least another 80 days given that they have been running 17 days). Report your answer to 3 decimal places.
The type of battery in Jim's laptop has a lifetime (in years) which follows a Weibull distribution with parameters a = 2 and B = 4. The type of battery in Jim's tablet has a lifetime (in years) which follows an exponential distribution with parameter A = 1/4. Find the probability that the lifetime of his laptop battery is less than 2.5 years and that the lifetime of his tablet battery is less than 3.2 years. (Answer as a decimal number, and round to 3 decimal places).
The lifespans of light bulbs are known to follow an exponential distribution. The exponential distribution, often denoted exp(β), is characterized by a single mean parameter β. The exponential distribution has a unique property that its standard deviation is equal to its mean. Suppose you order 100 light bulbs known to each have lifespans (in years) distributed according to exp(4). What is the probability that the average lifespan of your 100 light bulbs exceeds 5 years? (Using R it possible)
Suppose that the lifetimes of TV tubes are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 1.2 years. Suppose also that exactly 20% of the tubes did before 5 years. Find the mean lifetime of TV tubes. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least one decimal place.
