Suppose you and your roommate use a coin-flipping app to decide who has to take out the trash: heads you take out the trash, tails your roommate does. After losing a number of flips, you start to wonder if the cain-fippine app really is totally random, or if it is biased in one direction or the other. To be fair to your roormmate, you wish to test whether the app is biased in either direction, and thus a two tailed test is appropriate. You borrow your roommate's phone long enough to flip the virtual coin 16 times and you get 12 heads and 4 tails, To test the two-taled nuil hypothesis, you wil have to look at the probabilties) of which pessible ourcomes?

The math professor gave the class a set of 12 review problems and toldthem that the midterm exam would consist of 6 of the 12 problems selected at random.If Mela memorized the solutions to 8 of the 12 problems but could not solve any ofthe other 4 problems, what is the probability that she got 4 or more problems correctin the exam?
A bag has 12 different-colored marbles: 4 green, 5 blue, 1 yellow, and 2 orange. You draw a marble from the bag. If you get an orange marble or yellow marble, you win a prize. Based on the scenario, answer the following question: Is it more likely that players will win or lose playing the game?
At the Washington University 35%, 25% and 40% of the students in Calculus are taught by Prof. A, Prof. B and Prof. C, respectively. The respective probabilities of failing in Calculus for the three professors are 6%, 7% and 5%. A student in Calculus in the previous semester was randomly selected and was found out to have failed in the subject. Under which class most likely did he belong?
The weather in Columbus is either good, indifferent, or bad on any given day. If the weather is good today, there is a 40% chance it will be good tomorrow, a 30% chance it will be indifferent, and a 30% chance it will be bad. If the weather is indifferent today, there is a 50% chance it will be good tomorrow, and a 20% chance it will be indifferent. Finally, if the weather is bad today, there is a 10% chance it will be good tomorrow and a 30% chance it will be indifferent. a. What is the stochastic matrix, P, for this situation? b. Suppose there is a 10% chance of good weather today and a 90% chance of indifferent weather. What are the chances of bad weather tomorrow? c. Suppose the predicted weather for Monday is 40% indifferent weather and 60% bad weather. What are the chances for good weather on Wednesday? a. Create the stochastic matrix, P, where G is good, I is indifferent, and B is Bad. From: GIB a (Simplify your answers.) To: G
Your probability professor has a tabby cat who sleeps 34% of the time and seems to respond to stimuli more or less randomly. If a human pets her when she’s awake, she will request more petting 8% of the time, food 38% of the time, and a game of fetch the rest of the time. If a human pets her when she’s asleep, she will request more petting 33% of the time, food 41% of the time, and a game of fetch the rest of the time. (You can assume that the humans don’t pet her disproportionally often when she’s awake.) • If the cat requests food when petted, what is the probability that she was asleep? • If the cat requests a game of fetch when petted, what is the probability that she was not asleep?
You have worked for the Department of Administrative Affairs (DAA) for 27 years, and you still have little or no idea exactly what your job entails. To make your life a little more interesting, you have decided on the following course of action. Every Friday afternoon, you will use your desktop computer to generate a random digit from 0 to 4 (inclusive). If the digit is a zero, you will immediately quit your job, never to return. Otherwise, you will return to work the following Monday. (a) Use the states (1) employed by the DAA and (2) not employed by the DAA to set up the transition matrix P for the system with decimal entries. Calculate P2. Calculate P3. (b) What is the probability that you will still be employed by the DAA after each of the next three weeks? one week two weeks three weeks (c) What are your long-term prospects for employment at the DAA? a. Eventually, you will quit your job. b. You…
A person, Joe, claims to be able to "smell" an illness based on the odor of a person's clothing. Joe is given 12 shirts, each worn by a different person, some of whom had the illness and some of whom did not. The shirts were given to Joe in random order and he had to decide whether each shirt had been worn by an ill patient or by a healthy patient. joe identified 11 of the 12 shirts correctly. If we assume that Joe was just guessing, he would have probability 1/2 of correctly identifying each shirt. Find the probability that Joe would identify AT LEAST 11 shirts correctly by random guessing
. A swimmer, Sarah, hopes to compete in an upcoming meet. There are 8 team members eligible for the breaststroke event at the meet, but only 1 team member will be randomly selected to compete in that event. There are 4 team members eligible for the butterfly event at the meet, but only 1 team member will be randomly selected to compete in that event. Sarah is eligible to compete in both events. What is her chance of being selected for at least one of the two events? Select one: a. 1 in 4 b. 1 in 8 c. 3 in 8 d. 3 in 12
Two players play a game with the following rules: Player 1 puts on a blindfold while player two throws a die. The number that he gets is put aside as the "Target value". Then player two throws another die three times while giving player 1 information on weather he gets a lesser number than the target, equal to the target or greater than the target. Imagine that you are player one and you are handed the information that player two got [Lesser, equal, greater]. Deduce the probabilities of each possible target given the information.
