2 Producers (A and B) supply car mirrors to a distributor. If a mirror is picked up at random, the probability that it is from A is 0.25, from B it is 0.75. Due to the manufacturer’s failure, some mirrors are defective. The probability that mirror by A is defective is 0.04. The probability that mirrors by B is defective is 0.02. Find out the probability that a mirror selected at random will be defective

A certain disease has a prevalence of in a population. The rate of false 4 positives is 10% and and the rate of false negatives is 5%. If you are exposed to the disease, then probability that you contract it is . You can only contract the disease by sharing food.

You are the teacher of two math classes of 20 and 25 students respectively. To get into a university program, the students need a 75% in the class. Suppose each student has a 0.7 probability of getting atleast a 75% in the class. Let X1 be the number of students in the class of 20 who receive atleast a 75%. Let X2 be the number of students in the class of 25 who receive atleast a 75%. a. Do X1 and X2 fit the binomial setting? Are there any issues? For the rest of the question, assume both X1 and X2 can be modeled by a binomial distri- bution. b. What is the probability that exactly 15 students in the class of 20 get into the pro- gram? Do not use Table C. c. What is the probability that atleast 22 students in the class of 25 get into the pro- gram? Do not use Table C. d.

Suppose that there is a white urn containing two white balls and three red balls and there is a red urn containing one white ball and two red balls. An experiment consists of selecting at random a ball from the white urn and then (without replacing the first ball) selecting at random a ball from the urn having the color of the first ball. Find the probability that the second ball is red. The probability of the second ball being red is?
