Q. 1 t is estimated that 809% of emails are spam emails. Some software has been applied to filter these spam emails before they reach our inbox. A certain brand of software claims that it can detect 99% of spam emails, and the probability for a false positive (a non-spam email detected as spam) is 5%. Now if an email is detected as spam, then what is the probability that it is in fact a non-spam email? event A: email is spam; event B: email is detected as spam. Assume that

I need help with this:A manufacturer knows that on average 20% of toasters produced require repairs within 1 year after they are sold. When 18 toasters are randomly selected, find the smallest number x and largest number y such that (a) the probability that at least x of them will require repairs is less than 0.58; (b) the probability that at least y of them will not require repairs is greater than 0.84.
Benford's Law claims that numbers chosen from very large data files tend to have "1" as the first nonzero digit disproportionately often. In fact, research has shown that if you randomly draw a number from a very large data file, the probability of getting a number with "1" as the leading digit is about 0.301. Suppose you are an auditor for a very large corporation. The revenue report involves millions of numbers in a large computer file. Let us say you took a random sample of n = 250 numerical entries from the file and r = 60 of the entries had a first nonzero digit of 1. Let p represent the population proportion of all numbers in the corporate file that have a first nonzero digit of 1. Test the claim that p is less than 0.301 by using α = 0.01. What does the area of the sampling distribution corresponding to your P-value look like? a. The area in the right tail of the standard normal curve. b.
