Because P(A n B) has been defined as x, and we calculated the value of P(An B) = P(A) · P(B) to be x² + 0.49x + 0.058, we now solve for x, the probability of both pumps failing. P(A n B) = P(A) · P(B) x = x² + 0.49x + 0.058 0 = : x² - ( Solving the quadratic equation for x results in two values that represent the possible probabilities that the pumping system will fail on any given day. Rounding both values to four decimal places, the lower value is x = the larger is x = |× )×· + 0.058 , and
If Var(X1) = 2, Var(X2) = 4, Var(X3) = 3, Cov(X1, X2) = 1, Cov(X1, X3) = -2, and X2 and X3 are independent, find the mean and variance of Y = X1 – 2X2+3X3.

gn X Three couples and two single individuals have been invited to an investment seminar and have agreed to attend. Suppose the probability that any particular couple or individual arrives late is 0.41 (a couple will travel together in the same vehicle, so either both people will be on time or else both will arrive late). Assume that different couples and individuals are on time or late independently of one another. Let X = the number of people who arrive late for the seminar. (a) Determine the probability mass function of X. [Hint: label the three couples #1, #2, and #3 and the two individuals #4 and #5.] (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

When a man observed a sobriety checkpoint conducted by a police department, he saw 656 drivers were screened and 5 were arrested for driving while intoxicated. Based on those results, we can estimate that P(W)equals=0.00762,where W denotes the event of screening a driver and getting someone who is intoxicated. What does P(W) denote, and what is its value? What does P(W) represent? P(W)=

Suppose X and Y are independent. X has a mean of 1 and variance of 1, Y has a mean of 0, and variance of 2. Let S=X+Y, calculate E(S) and Var(S). Let Z=2Y^2+1/2 X+1 calculate E(Z). Hint: for any random variable X, we have Var(X)=E(X-E(X))^2=E(X^2 )-(E(X))^2, you may want to find EY^2 with this. Calculate cov(S,X). Hint: similarly, we have cov(Z,X)=E(ZX)-E(Z)E(X), Calculate cov(Z,X). Are Z and X independent? Are Z and Y independent? Why? What about mean independence?
