n a rural area, there is a road that connects location X and location Y, however this road cannot be passed about 50% of the time due to floods. There is another route that goes to location Z. The road from location X to Z is only passable 75% of the time and the road from location Z to Y is only passable 70% of the time. Furthermore, if the road between location X and Z is passable, then the road travelling from Z to Y is passable 80% of the time. If the route from location X to Y to Z is passable, then the route directly from location X to Y is passable 80% of the time. What is the probability of travelling from location X to Y? If during the night a flood makes the road from X to Z impassable, what is the probability that the traveller can still travel from Z to Y? Please answer completely will give rating surely

Show full solution. To inspect the quality of the screens for mobile phones produced by Company X, two separate inspection devices are used to test the screens for defects. Basically, a specific screen is tested once using the two inspection devices. Device 1 can detect the presence of defects 99.3% of the time, whereas Device 2 can detect defects 99.7% of the time. Assume that the 2 devices are operating independently from each other. One day, four defective screens were sent for inspection. Let X represent the number of screens that will be correctly tagged as defective by Device 1, while Y represents the number of screens that will be correctly tagged as defective by Device 2. Determine the following:a.) fXY(x,y)b.) fX (x)c.) E(X)
So I decide to go to Cinnaholic once day and I buy two cinnamon rolls. I notice that these cinnamon rolls do not appear to be the same size, so naturally I eat the smaller one first and then eat the bigger one. As I am sitting on my couch stuffed from those delicious rolls, I start to think, "I wonder if Cinnaholic makes their cinnamon rolls to the size they claim them to be." Of course I have to go and purchase several rolls, weigh them (in ounces), and eat them. 30 pounds later, I have collected all of my data and tabulated it below: Cinnamon Roll Weight 5.6, 6.3, 6.1, 6.1, 5.9, 5.8, 6.0, 6.0, 6.1, 6.3, 6.3, 6.3, 6.4, 5.8, 5.7. Cinnaholic claims that their Cinnabon rolls are made to weigh 6.1 ounces on average. The mean is 6.0467 Standard deviation: 0.2475

A marketing firm wishes to test the effectiveness of the audio/visual presenation of certain information as opposed to the purely audio presentation of information. To this end250 volunteers were given a 10 minute presentation in which the information was presented in an audio/visual format. A second group of 250 volunteers was presented the same information in a purely audio format. Each person in each of the two groups was asked the same 20 questions related to the infomrstion in the presentation. The audio/visual grouo had an average of 10.2 correct responses with a sample standard deviation of 4. The purely audio group had an average of 9.4 correct responses with a standard deviation of 3. The marketing firm believes this means that the audio /visual format leads to better retention of the information. We test the hypothesed H1: µ1 - µ2 = 0 versus Ha: µ1-µ>0 at a 2% level of significance. Here µ1 denotes the population average number of correct responses for individuals…

Suppose Aaron recently purchased an electric car. The person who sold him his new car told him that he could consistently travel 200 mi before having to recharge the car's battery. Aaron began to believe that the car traveled even farther than the company claimed, and he decided to test this hypothesis formally. Aaron drove his car only to work and he recorded the number of miles that his new car traveled before he had to recharge its battery a total of 17 separate times. The table shows the summary of his results. Assume his investigation satisfies all conditions for a one-sample t-test. Mean miles traveled Sample size t-statistic P-value P 207 17 1.48 0.079 The results statistically significant at a = 0.01 because P 0.01. are are not V
A forest consists of two types of trees; young (between 0 and 3 m tall) and adults (more than 3 m). Each year, 20% of young trees die, 10% sell for $20 each, 30% remain between 0 and 3 m, and 40% grow taller than 3 m. Each year, 40% of adult trees sell for $50, 20% sell for $20, 30% remain in the forest, and 10% die. What percentage of the trees planted sell for $50?
Imagine you are in a city that has a grid of streets with perfectly square blocks and that the only way to get from one intersection to another is to follow the block system. How many blocks will you have to walk (or pay the cabdriver for) if you want to get from the intersection of 10th Ave and 25th Street to the intersection of 6th Ave and 28th Street? If you had a jet pack and could fly over the buildings, how many blocks in length would the shortest path be? How does this compare to #1? (Hint: Pythagorean Theorem)
A researcher wants to search ‘drifting’ in Muscat. One way to conduct this research is by asking those who are doing ‘drifting’. By a personal contact he could come across a person who like to do drifting almost in weekly basis. The research was able to talk to this person, establish a good relationship and gain some useful information. This person recommended a friend who was also willing to talk to the researcher. This endures with one person recommending another and on and on, till the researcher had interviewed 20 different people.What is the sampling method?
