Professor John is designing a water flask and he needs to know the probability that the filtration system will fail during a water cleaning. Based on previous data, Professor John estimates that the probability of a filtration system failure during the filtration cleaning is 0.05. If the water flask is used for 365 days in a year, what is the probability that the filtration system will not fail during any cleaning in a year?
A local jam production company is confident that 60% of the population will like its new grapefruit jelly. If 200 persons taste the new grapefruit jelly, determine the number of persons who are expected to like it. From a random sample of 10 persons who tasted the new grapefruit jelly, calculate the probability that less than two will like it.
A company offers guided tours of remote areas of the world. Each tour consists of 20 people. The probability of selling a ticket for any given spot on the tour is 0.86. The costs to the company are approximately the same regardless of the number of people that show up. To offset the risk associated with a tour not filling up, the company purchases a specialized insurance policy. The policy pays 100 for each ticket that is left unsold, up to a maximum of 400. Let P be the amount that the insurance policy pays to the company for a specific tour. Calculate E[P] to the nearest dollar. O 251 O244 O 259 O 267 275
Jack has just been given a ten-question multiple choice quiz in history class. Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct. Since Jack has not attended class recently, he does not know any of the answers. Assuming Jack guesses randomly on all ten questions, find the probability that he will answer six or more of the questions correctly and avoid an F.
Charlie is about to take two laps in the school swimming pool. The time of his first lap is X minutes, where X is an Exponential(1) random variable. The time of his second lap is Y minutes, where Y is an Exponential(X) random variable. What is the probability that he completes his second lap within one minute?
