The taxi and takeoff time for commercial jets is a random variable x with a mean of 8.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.8 minutes. Assume that the distribution of taxi and takeoff times is approximately normal. You may assume that the jets are lined up on a runway so that one taxies and takes off immediately after the other, and that they take off one at a time on a given runway. (a) What is the probability that for 35 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be less than 320 minutes? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(b) What is the probability that for 35 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be more than 275 minutes? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(c) What is the probability that for 35 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be between 275 and 320 minutes? (Round your answer to four decimal places.
The probability of having a red color ball is 15%. The boy selected four submitted balls at random, let X be a random variable indicating the number of red color balls out of those balls selected by the boy. Identify and compute the expected value for the random variable X, i.e. E(X).
In a human genome there are 6.4X109 basepairs and the mutation rate per generation per basepair is 1.8X10-8 basepairs. What is the expected number of new mutations (not carried by either of your parents) present in you? What is the probability that you contain 20 new mutations? Use Poisson distribution to solve.
A random variable Xis binomially distributed with mean 4 and standard deviation 2.4. Find the probability that more than half the trials are successes.
A private hospital gets an average of 14 hospital admissions per week in its emergency room (ER). Let x be the outcome of hospital admissions in the emergency room in a week. In order to plan for the number of beds for the future, the hospital has to model the data with an appropriate distribution. (a) what distribution would you suggest for the random variable X, and why? (b) what is the probability of getting at most two admissions in one week? (c) what is the probability of getting at most two admissions in two weeks? (d) what is the probability of getting at least one admission in 2 days, assuming its ER opens 7 days a week? (e) if the hospital closes for three days because of a very serious event, how may new patients will the ER miss for admission on average, in those three days?
You are to roll a fair die n = 120 times, each time observing if the topside of the die shows a 6 (success) or not (failure). After observing the n = 120 tosses, you are to count the number of times the topside showed a 6. This count is represented by the random variable X. (a) The distribution of X ? with a mean and a standard deviation Enter your answer using all the decimals you can. (b) Now think about the proportion of your n = 120 tosses that show a six. What can you say about the distribution of this proportion? Complete the sentence, Enter your answer using all the decimals you can. The distribution of ? with a mean and a standard deviation σ you can. ☐ 2 2 ☐ (c) What is the probability that the proportion/percentage of your n = 120 tosses that show a six will be somewhere between 15% and 22%? Enter your answer using all the decimals you can. (d) After the n = 120 tosses of the die, you observe X = 27, the value of the sample proportion is then = 270 = 0.225. What is the…

One common disease among pediatric patients is streptococcal pharyngitis (strep throat). If a pediatric patient comes in to the pediatricians feeling ill, there is a 26% chance that they have strep throat. A doctor sees 7 pediatric patients on a particular day (assume these patients are independent). Consider the random variable is a binomial random variable such that X = number of pediatric patients with strep throat. What is the expected number of pediatric patients with strep throat?
