- "What are the key principles and concepts that underlie the field of probability theory, and how do they contribute to our understanding of uncertainty and randomness in various real-world phenomena, ranging from weather patterns and financial markets to medical diagnoses, and how has the historical development of probability theory shaped its applications in diverse fields?"A complex electronic device contains three components, A, B, and C. The probabilities of failure for each component in any one year are 0.01, 0.03, and 0.04, respectively. If any one component fails, the device will fail. If the components fail independently of one another, what is the probability that the device will not fail in one year? (A) Less than 0.01 (B) 0.078 (C) 0.080 (D) 0.922 (E) Greater than 0.99Problem 4: Heidi manages a firm that is going to start operating in a new market. She has the option of targeting either "high end" consumers or "low end" consumers. She has some uncertainty regarding actual market conditions in each of these two segments. Very loosely, she thinks that market conditions in each segment could be either "favorable" or "unfavorable." The probability of "favorable" versus "unfavorable" conditions in each market segment (along with her resulting profit in each case) is: Market High end Low end 3 b. If p= and q= =/²/² 4 q 1-q a.

- Discuss the weaknesses of the linear probability model for dichotomous (binary) dependent variables.Acme Company has three identical manufacturing plants, one on the Texas Gulf Coast, one in southern Alabama, and one in Florida. Each plant is valued at $200 million. Acme's risk manager is concerned about the damage which could be caused by a single hurricane. The risk manager believes there is an extremely low probability that a single hurricane could destroy two or all three plants because they are located so far apart. What is the maximum possible loss associated with a single hurricane?Scenario: A study was conducted to explore the prevalence and impact of sleep problems on various aspects of people's lives. Staff from a university in Melbourne, Australia were invited to complete a questionnaire containing questions about their sleep behaviour (e.g. hours slept per night), sleep problems (e.g. difficulty getting to sleep) and the impact that these problems have on aspects of their lives (work, driving, relationships). The sample consisted of 271 respondents (55% female, 45% male) ranging in age from 18 to 84 years (M=43.9yrs). A student researcher is interested in examining whether the participants in the study sleep for 8 hours a night, the recommended average for adults. What is the Null and alternative hypotheses (based on the context of study) in symbols and words:

According to the analysis made by the financial department of the company, it will earn an annual profit of $4.5 million if this product has high sales, an annual profit of $1.2 million if the sales are mediocre, and it will lose $2.3 million a year if the sales are low. The probabilities of these three scenarios are 0.32, 0.51 and 0.17 respectively. i. Let x be the profits (in millions of dollars) earned per annum by the company from this product. Write the probability distribution of x. ii. Calculate the mean and standard deviations of x.Johnson Chemicals is considering two options for its supplier portfolio. Option 1 uses two local suppliers. Each has a "unique-event" risk of 4.5%, and the probability of a "super-event" that would disable both at the same time is estimated to be 1.3%. Option 2 uses two suppliers located in different countries. Each has a "unique-event" risk of 14%, and the probability of a "super-event" that would disable both at the same time is estimated to be 0.18%. a) The probability that both suppliers will be disrupted using option 1 is ____ (round your response to five decimal places). b) The probability that both suppliers will be disrupted using option 2 is _____ (round your response to five decimal places).
