The probability that an automobile being filled with gasoline also needs an oil change is 0.25; the probability that it needs a new oil filter is 0.40; and the probability that both the oil and the filter need changing is 0.14. (a) If the oil has to be changed, what is the probability that a new oil filter is needed? (b) If a new oil filter is needed, what is the probability that the oil has to be changed?

A major traffic problem in the Greater Cincinnati area involves traffic attempting to cross the Ohio River from Cincinnati to Kentucky using Interstate 75. Let us assume that the probability of no traffic delay in one period, given no traffic delay in the preceding period, is 0.95 and that the probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period, is 0.75. Traffic is classified as having either a delay or a no-delay state, and the period considered is 30 minutes. (a) Assume that you are a motorist entering the traffic system and receive a radio report of a traffic delay. What is the probability that for the next 60 minutes (two time periods) the system will be in the delay state? Note that this result is the probability of being in the delay state for two consecutive periods. = (b) What is the probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state? (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) No Traffic Delay Traffic Delay π 1 =…
Suppose that if person with tuberculosis is given a TB screening, the probability that his or her condition will be detected is 0.90. If a person without tuberculosis is given a TB screening , the probability that he or she will be diagnosed incorrectly as having tuberculosis is 0.3. Suppose, further, that 11% of the adult residents of a certain city have tuberculosis. If one of these adults is diagnosed as having tuberculosis based on the screening, what is the probability that he or she actually has tuberculosis?
