Question 2 (a) One of the famous fast-food chains in Malaysia has a brand name recognition rate of 95% around the world. If we randomly select 16 people, (i) compute the probability that exactly 13 people recognize the brand. (ii) compute the probability that between 5 and 12 people do not recognize the brand.

A study tracked a large group of people for 10 years. At the start of the study, 20% were heavy smokers (H), 30% were light smokers (L), and 50% were non-smokers (N). The interest of the study was whether the people in the study died during the study (D) or not die (Dc ). The probability that a light smoker died during the study was twice that of the probability of a non-smoker dying. Also, the probability that light smoker died during the study was half that of the probability of a heavy smoker dying. A randomly selected person from the study died during the study. What is the probability that this person was a heavy smoker (given they died, what is the probability they were a heavy smoker H)?
Suppose on a CD, you like 10 out of 13 songs. If you randomly select four songs to be played once, what is the probability that(a) You like 3 of the songs out of the 4? Enter your answer rounded to two decimals. (b) You like the first two songs and then dislike the second two songs, in that order? Enter your answer rounded to two decimals.
A web server's visit always comes from five sites. The percentages of known visits from sites 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are 20%, 30%, 15%, 10% and 25% respectively. The probability of visits from five sites lasting more than 2 minutes is 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 0.2 and 0.9 respectively. Now randomly select a visit. What is the probability that the visit lasts more than 2 minutes? If the selected visit last more than 2 minutes, which sites does it most likely come from?
Suppose 49% of the registered voters in a country are Republican. If a sample of 701 voters is selected, what is the probability that the sample proportion of Republicans will differ from the population proportion by greater than 4%? Round your answer to four decimal places.
In 2020 Skittles changed the flavor of green from lime to sour apple (big mistake!!). Mr. Phillips takes a small handful of 5 Skittles from a bin of 10,000 Skittles and gets ALL GREEN (terrible)! If 20% of the Skittles are green, what is the probability of this happening?
If a seed is planted, it has a 80% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 6 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 2 don't grow?
A social science department at a university consists of 4 psychology professors , 5 history professors , and 2 sociology professors . One of the professors from this department will be selected at random serve on a university committee .For any given professor from this department, what is the probability that he or she will be selected for the committee ? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places .) What is the probability that a sociology professor will be selected? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) What is the probability that the selected professor will NOT be a psychology professor? Round your answer to 2 decimal places
Records from a medical journal show that 40% of adult males suffer from prostate issues. A random sample of six adult males is selected. What is the probability that exactly four of these adult males suffer from prostate issues? What is the probability that at most one of these adult males suffer from prostate issues?
Overall, Steve Dalkowski throws a strike with 17% of his pitches (that is, the probability that he throws a strike with any given pitch is .17). (a) In one game, Dalkowski throws 240 pitches. What is the probability that he throws exactly 40 strikes? (b) In one week, Dalkowski throws 400 pitches. What is the probability that he throws 80 or more strikes? Every day for eternity Dalkowski throws 100 pitches, and records the number of strikes. (c) Find the mean µ, and the standard deviation o, of the numbers (of strikes thrown on different days) that Dalkowski records.
Suppose that the prevalence of diabetes in the U.S. is 10% and that the prevalence of cardiovascular disease is 20%. Suppose also that 5% of people in the U.S. have both diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Suppose Jack has diabetes. What is the probability that he also has cardiovascular disease?
Which answer is it?
A manufacturer makes two models of an item: model I, which accounts for 75% of unit sales, and model II, which accounts for 25% of unit sales. Because of defects, the manufacturer has to replace (or exchange) 5% of its model I and 10% of its model II. If a model is selected at random, find the probability that it will be defective. Please round the final answer to 2 or 3 decimal places. P(detective)=
