[Bayes' Theorem, Discrete Random Variables] It is known that 90% of new cars produced by a certain company have on average À malfunctions per 1 km of covered distance. Besides this, it is known that remaining 10% of new cars were produced with a defect which increases the average malfunction rate to 2λ. The two types of cars are indistinguishable otherwise. When (a) Suppose that only a single malfunction has occured with a randomly selected car over 1,000 km of distance. What is the probability that the car is from the defective group, and how does it depend on λ? (b) For a randomly selected car, find a minimum distance covered with no malfunctions for the probability that the car is from the non-defective group is 95% or above (express the result as a function of X).

3. Students looked at the effect of a certain fertilizer on plant growth. The students tested this fertilizer on one group of plants (Group A) and did not give fertilizer to a second group (Group B). Let X and Y denote the respective growths of the plants (in mm) in Group A and Group B over six weeks. Suppose X and Y are independent random variables with distributions N(ux, o) and N(uy, o), respectively. A random sample from N(ux.o%) of size n = 25 yielded i 35.83 and s = 23.81, while a random %3! sample from N(uy o) of size m = 29 yielded y = 31.51 and s = 33.76. %3D (a) Assume o = o, test the null hypothesis at 1% significance level that the mean growths are equal against the alternative that the fertilizer enhanced growth.
