SITUATION 5(a) In testing a certain kind of truck tire over a rugged terrain, it is found out that 25% of the trucks fail to complete the test without ablowout. Suppose that 15 trucks are tested.(a.1) What is the probability that exactly 5 trucks have blowouts?(a.2) What is the probability that fewer than 5 trucks have blowout?(a.3) Determine the average number of blowouts that may be encountered during the said test.(b) A certain area of the Philippines is, on average, hit by 10 typhoons per year.(b.1) Find the probability that for a given year, fewer that 7 typhoons will pass the area.(b.2) Find the probability that for a given year, anywhere between 8 and 11 typhoons will pass the area.

As per our guidelines we are suppose to answer only one question. Given,n=15p=0.25q=1-0.25=0.75A…

Before 1918, approximately 55% of the wolves in a region were male, and 45% were female. However, cattle ranchers in this area have made a determined effort to exterminate wolves. From 1918 to the present, approximately 65% of wolves in the region are male, and 35% are female. Biologists suspect that male wolves are more likely than females to return to an area where the population has been greatly reduced. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
14. QUESTION: Consider the following experiment. You draw a square, of width 1 foot, on the floor. Inside the square, you inscribe a circle of diameter 1 foot. The circle will just fit inside the square. You then throw a dart at the square in such a way that it is equally likely to fall on any point of the square. What is the probability that the dart falls inside the circle? (Think about area!) How might this process be used to estimate the value of r?

Answer only question 3
A disease affects 1 out of 10,000 people. There is a test to check whether a person has the disease. The test is accurate. In particular, we know the following: (a) The probability that the test result is positive given that the person does not have the disease, is only 2 percent. (b) The probability that the test result is negative given that the person has the disease, is only 1 percent. Question: A random person gets tested for the disease and the result comes back positive. What is the probability that the person has the disease?
