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. Find the probabilitu that one bit has high distortion, one has moderate distortion and three bits have low distortion.

Concept explainers

Contingency Table

A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.

Binomial Distribution

Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

Benford's Law claims that numbers chosen from very large data files tend to have "1" as the first nonzero digit disproportionately often. In fact, research has shown that if you randomly draw a number from a very large data file, the probability of getting a number with "1" as the leading digit is about 0.301. Suppose you are an auditor for a very large corporation. The revenue report involves millions of numbers in a large computer file. Let us say you took a random sample of n = 250 numerical entries from the file and r = 60 of the entries had a first nonzero digit of 1. Let p represent the population proportion of all numbers in the corporate file that have a first nonzero digit of 1. Test the claim that p is less than 0.301 by using α = 0.01. What does the area of the sampling distribution corresponding to your P-value look like? a. The area in the right tail of the standard normal curve. b. The area not including the right tail of the standard normal curve.…
SOLVE STEP BY STEP IN DIGITAL FORMAT 10. The semarnat has set the average number of bacteria per cm3 of water at 70, as a limit. An average value greater than 70 can cause hepatitis in people who eat clams. It has been shown that the probability distribution of the number of bacteria can be modeled as a normal one. In order to decide if certain waters meet the standard, nine water samples were taken, and the following bacteria counts were obtained: 69,74,75,70,72,73,71,73,68. Do the data show that the waters are safe for fishing, at the 5% level of significance?
