Suppose we toss m (numbered) balls into n (numbered) bins randomly. Let X be the number of bins with exactly one ball in them. Determine a formula for the probability p that a bin, say bin i has one ball in it and then calculate E(X), the expected number of bins with one ball. For m = n = 10 calculate p and E(X)

A screening test for a particular infectious disease shows a positive test result in 90% of all cases when the disease is actually present, and in 10% of all cases when it is not. Assume that t% of the population is infected, where t is = 1. For a randomly chosen from the population person, find the probability that the person is actually infected if the test shows positive.
