Three machines turn out all the products in a factory, with the first machine producing 25% of the products, the second machine 25%, and the third machine 50%. The first machine produces defective products 12% of the time, the second machine 20% of the time and the third machine 4% of the time. What is the probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

You purchase a brand new car for $17,000 and insure it. The policy pays 78% of the car's value if there is an issue with the engine or 30% of the car's value if there is an issue with the speaker system. The probability of an issue with the engine is 0.009, and the probability there is an issue with the speaker system is 0.02. The premium for the policy is p. Let X be the insurance company's net gain from this policy. (a) Create a probability distribution for X, using p to represent the premium on the policy. Enter the possible values of X in ascending order from left to right. X P(X)

Charles has six songs on a playlist. Each song is by a different artist. The artists are Joey McIntyre, Whitney Houston, Aaron Carter, Shakira, Shania Twain, and Phil Collins. He programs his player to play the songs in a random order, without repetition. What is the probability that the first song is by Aaron Carter and the second song is by Joey McIntyre? Write your answer as a fraction or a decimal, rounded to four decimal places. The probability that the first song is by Aaron Carter and the second song is by Joey McIntyre is .
