Assume that her forgetting is a Bernoulli process. (1) What is the probability that she remembers to bring her briefcase every day in one week (5 days)? (2) What is the probability that she forgets to bring her briefcase every day in one week (5 days)? (3) What is the probability that she forgets to bring her briefcase at least one day in one week (5 days)?

Question 3: The elimination of penalty kicks in football is an interesting probability problem.< (1) If you are the goalkeeper's coach, 'specify' how you would build a probability model and develop a strategy to improve your team's chances of winning. (Hint, before a penalty shoot-out, the goalkeeper coach will usually take out a small note telling the goalkeeper the approximate direction in which he sees a player lunge.)< (2) If you are the goalkeeper coach, and you are additionally taking into account the player's ability to play properly, 'specify' how you would build a probability model and develop a strategy to improve your team's chances of winning. (Hint, the goalscoring coach will be balancing the player's usual form on the penalty kick, his form in today's game, or the angle of the penalty kick, with the trickier the angle the closer the kick is to the goal, etc.)<

QUESTION 3 At a particular garage 20% of the cars that arrive for repair have engine trouble. Upon arrival at the garage an engine diagnostic test is carried out on the car, but this engine diagnostic test is far from perfect. If the car has engine trouble the diagnostic test will turn out positive with a probability of 0.9. If the car does not have engine trouble, the diagnostic test will turn out positive with a probability of 0.05. For each of the questions below explain your answer i.e. show your reasoning. Q 3(d) If 10 cars arrive to the garage on a particular day, what is the probability that: (i) (ii) none of the cars will have engine trouble. the first car with engine trouble that arrives to the garage that day will be the 4th car.
