Suppose that after 10 years of service, 36% of computers have problems with motherboards (MB), 42% have problems with hard drives (HD), and 18% have problems with both MB and HD. (a) What is the probability that a 10-year old computer have problem with MB or HD. (B) What is the probability that a 10-year old computer still has fully function MB and HD? (C) What is the probability that a 10-year old computer have problems with MB but no problems with HD?

A global research study found that the majority of today's working women would prefer a better work-life balance to an increased salary. One of the most important contributors to work-life balance identified by the survey was "flexibility," with 47% of women saying that having a flexible work schedule is either very important or extremely important to their career success. Suppose you select a sample of 100 working women What is the probability that in the sample more than 50% say that having a flexible work schedule is either very important or extremely important to their career success? round to four decimal places

What is the probability that this person will receive exactly four pieces of junk mail over the next two days? What is the probability that this person will receive between 5 and 7 pieces of junk mail over the next two days?

A survey showed that 7575% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 2222 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that no more thanno more than 11 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 11 a significantly lowlow number of adults requiring eyesight correction?
Apparently, depression significantly increases the risk of developing dementia later in lift (BBC News, July 6, 2010). In a recent study it was reported that 22% of those who had depression went on to develop dementia, compared to only 17% of those who did not have depression. Suppose 10% of all people suffer from depression. What is the probability of a person developing dementia? If a person has developed dementia, what is the probability that the person suffered from depression earlier in life?

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)=
