When the health department tested private wells in a county for two impurities commonly found in drinking water, it found that 10% of the wells had neither impurity, 90% had impurity A, and 20% had impurity B. (Obviously, some had both impurities.) If a well is randomly chosen from those in the county, find the probability distribution for Y, the number of impurities found in the well. P(no impurities)= P(exactly one impurity)= P(both impurities)=

The natural remedy echinacea is reputed to boost the immune system, which will reduce flu and colds. A 6-month study was undertaken to determine whether the remedy works. From this study, the following probability distribution of the number of respiratory infections per year (X) for echinacea users was produced: 3 4 1 2 P(X) 0.342 0.323 0.203 0.074 0.058 Find the following probabilities: A. An echinacea user has more than one infection per year B. An echinacea user has no infection per year C. An echinacea user has between one and three (inclusive) infections per year

Let S be the educational attainment of individuals in a town, with values S-0 for less than high school and S=1 for high school or above. Also, let Y be their individual annual income with values Y-O for less than $20,000, Y-1 for between $20,000 and $40,000, and Y=2 for above $40,000. Consider now the following joint probabilities: Y-0 (less than $20K) Y-1 ($20K-$40K) Y-2 (more than $40K) 0.03 0.01 0.36 0.33 SIY S-0 (Less than HS) 0.05 Y-1 (HS or more) 0.22 Determine the conditional standard deviation of the level of educational attainment given that the individual annual income is between $20,000 and $40,000.

Maximus Steel plans to introduce one of three new products code-named: Wren, Hawk, and Nightingale. The marketing department indicated that the success of any product depends on the market conditions (Favorable, Neutral, or Unfavorable). The profit the company will earn also depends on the market conditions. The table below shows the probability estimated for each market condition and the profits Maximus Steel will realize within those conditions: Product Code Market Conditions Favorable P = 0.2 Neutral P = 0.7 Unfavorable P = 0.1 Wren $120,000 $70,000 ($30,000) Hawk $60,000 $40,000 $20,000 Nightingale $35,000 $30,000 $30,000 Maximus Steel is considering hiring a market research firm to do a survey to determine future market conditions. The results of the survey will indicate either positive or negative market conditions. There is a 0.60 probability of a positive report, given favorable conditions; a 0.30 probability of a positive…
