Lana arrives at a bus stop at a uniformly random time. When Lana arrives at the bus stop, either of two independent bus lines (both of which can take her school) may come by. Company A’s bus arrival times are exactly 10 minutes apart, whereas the time from one Company B bus to the next is distributed as Expo (1/10) . What is the probability that Company B’s bus arrives first solve by double integration.

According to scientists, the cockroach has had 300 million years to develop a resistance to destruction. In a study conducted by researchers, 5,000 roaches (the expected number in a roach-infested house) were released in the test kitchen. One week later, the kitchen was fumigated and 18,857 dead roaches were counted, a gain of 13,857 roaches for the 1-week period. Assume that none of the original roaches died during the 1-week period and that the standard deviation of x, the number of roaches produced per roach in a 1-week period, is 1.4. Use the number of roaches produced by the sample of 5,000 roaches to find a 90% confidence interval for the mean number of roaches produced per week for each roach in a typical roach-infested house. Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean number of roaches produced per week for each roach in a typical roach-infested house. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
For the project above, suppose our rework loop was “longer.” That is, in the earlier question, we assumed that, after finishing A4 we have a 20% probability of going back to A3. Instead, assume that after completing A4, there is a 5% chance of having to redo A2 (and hence A3 and then A4), there is a 15% chance of having to redo A3 (and hence A4 as well). b) What is the probability of completing the project in 14 or fewer days? (Please enter the percentage of probability without the percentage sign)
Vaccine A and B are given to 20% and 50% of the individuals in Country X, respectively, to protect them from becoming infected with Covid-19. The remaining persons have not received any vaccinations against Covid-19. None of them received more than one vaccination. The rates of Covid-19 infection for people vaccinated with Vaccine A, people vaccinated with Vaccine B, and unprotected people are known to be 20%, 10%, and 50%, respectively. What is the likelihood of a person being unvaccinated if they are randomly chosen and discovered to be infected with Covid-19?
There are X-Mart and Y-Mart convenience stores. It is assumed that each customer purchases once a week at one of the two supermarkets (but not both). In a study, a sample of 100 buyers was taken for 10 weeks. From this research it is known that if buyers go to X-mart store one week, 85 people will still buy at X-mart store the following week and if buyers go to Y-mart store one week, 70 people will still buy at Y-mart store. mart the following week. 1. Make a table and matrix of transition probabilities. 2. If John purchases at X-mart in the first week, what is the probability that Bob purchases at X-store in the third and fourth weeks?
Assume the chances of failure of each component is given in Figure. What is the probability that the system would not work? .
A medical researcher claims that the proportion of patients receiving 200 mg of a newly-developed influenza vaccine who go on to contract influenza strain X is less than the proportion of patients receiving 200 mg of last year's influenza vaccine who contract influenza strain X. Of 320 patients who are given last year's vaccine, 114 contract influenza strain X. Of 350 patients who are given the new vaccine, 112 of them contract influenza strain X. Let PN be the proportion of patients receiving the newly-developed vaccine and pL be the proportion of patients receiving last year's vaccine. State the null and alternative hypotheses and the value of the test statistic. Ho: PN =PL versus HA: PN > PL; Test statistic: Z = 0.99 Ho: PN=PL versus HA: PN > PL; Test statistic: Z = 1.55 Ho: PN-PL versus HA: PN PL; Test statistic: Z= 1.55 Ho: PN-PL versus HA: PN PL; Test statistic: Z= 0.99
Consider a two component parallel system in which both components have times to failure and times to 0.0024 f/hr and µ1 = = 0.001 f /hr, 12 repair that are exponentially distributed. The data is 1, 0.003 r/hr and µ2 = 0.005 r/hr. Evaluate the reliability or probability of success for a mission of 1000 hr. (hint: form a history for each component using the data for failure rate and repair rate)
In airline applications, failure of a component can result in catastrophe. As a result, many airline components utilize something called triple modular redundancy. This means that a critical component has two backup components that may be utilized should the initial component fail. Suppose a certain critical airline component has a probability of failure of 0.039 and the system that utilizes the component is part of a triple modular redundancy. (a) What is the probability that the system does not fail? (b) Engineers decide to the probability of failure is too high for this system. Use trial and error to determine the minimum number of components that should be included in the system to result in system that has greater than a 0.99999999 probability of not failing. (a) The probability is (Round to eight decimal places as needed.)
In laboratories where clinical tests are carried out, two types of test are available for the detection of a highly contagious virus. The Type A test is very fast and inexpensive while the Type B test is a test that requires more time to obtain a diagnosis and is more expensive. It is known that the economic test. Type A, generates correct diagnosis (C) in 60% of cases. While the Type B test provides the correct diagnosis (C) in 99% of cases. If after six months of quarantine due to this virus the health secretary realizes that 80% of the tests carried out in the state correspond to Type A economic tests and only 20% were Type B. If it is known that a test made an incorrect diagnosis. What is the probability that the Type A economic test did? .9937 .24844 .322 .6211 .3788

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.…
