2) Items produced in an industrial process can be dassified as either defective or non defective. The probability that an item is defective is 0.1. An experiment is conducted in which 5 items are drawn randomly from the process. Let the random variable x be the number of defective items in this sample of five. Determine the probability mass function f(x).
Problem 6: Non-linear Regression Model The total time needed to bring a car to stop after the driver perceives danger is the reaction time plus the braking time. Reaction time is the time between the perception of danger and applying the brakes, and braking time is the time for stopping after applying the brakes. The table below gives the stopping distance d (in feet) of the car traveling at speeds v (in miles per hour) from the instant of danger perception. a.
