Random Variables

A random variable Z is a real valued function of the type Z: S → R on a sample space S. That means the function assigns a real number to every primitive event in the sample space. In other words, a random variable is a function mapping a sample space S to a set of real numbers R.

Question

Assume that the probability distribution of our input is known to be uniform (continuous) over the range [0, 100]. We want to bucket-sort 10,000 real numbers using the BUCKET − SORT algorithm in CLRS, Section
8.4 (i.e., with 10, 000 buckets). What is the probability that bucket 0 will remain empty? What is the probability that the rst 5 buckets will all remain empty? Express your answers to four decimal places

From experience, an airline knows that only 70% of the passengers booked for a certain flight actually show up. If 8passengers are randomly selected, find the probability that fewer than 6 of them 6 show up.Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer to two decimal places.
A jury pool has 23 people that are married and 21 people that are not married, from which 12 jurors will be selected. Assuming that each person is equally likely to be chosen and that the jury is selected at random without replacement, find the probability that the jury consists of the following. (Give answer as a fraction or a decimal out to at least 4 places. If your answer is very small use scientific notation out to 4 decimal places for example 3.3421E-6.) (a) all married people. (b) all not married people. (c) 8 married and 4 that are not married. (d) 6 married and 6 that are not married.
What does the memoryless property refer to? An event cannot occur if it has already occured within a recent specified time period. The distribution of the time until an event does not depend on how much time has already passed. The occurrence of an event is independent of the number of times that event has already occurred. None of the above.
Suppose population 1 consists of all students who picked up all the tests they completed prior to taking the final exam. Suppose population 2 consists of all students who had one or more tests that they completed that were not picked up prior to taking the final exam. Based on years of grading final exams and observing grades, STAT 210 instructors conjecture that the mean final exam grade for all students who picked up all their tests is greater than the mean final exam grade for all students who had one or more tests that were not picked up. A simple random sample of 56 students who picked up all tests they completed was selected, and the mean score on final exam for this sample of students was 83 with a standard deviation of 10.4. An independent simple random sample of 51 students who had one or more tests that were not picked up was selected, and the mean score on the final exam for this sample of students was 67 with a standard deviation of 24.2. Both distributions are skewed…
A certain medical school accepts only 8% of applicants. A prep program claims that their students are admitted to this medical school at a higher rate. To test their claim at the 10% significance level, we select at random 144 students from the prep program (who all apply to this medical school), and we compute p, the proportion of the sample who are admitted to the medical school.

A study of n = 2252 adults age 18 or older found that 72% of the cell phone users send and receive text messages.15 A study of n = 800 teens age 12 to 17 found that 87% of the teen cell phone users send and receive text messages. What is the best estimate for the difference in the proportion of cell phone users who use text messages, between adults (defined as 18 and over) and teens? Give notation (as a difference with a minus sign) for the quantity we are trying to estimate, notation for the quantity that gives the best estimate, and the value of the best estimate. Be sure to clearly define any parameters in the context of this situation.
Jack has just been given a ten-question multiple choice quiz in history class. Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct. Since Jack has not attended class recently, he does not know any of the answers. Assuming Jack guesses randomly on all ten questions, find the probability that he will answer six or more of the questions correctly and avoid an F.
SOLVE STEP BY STEP IN DIGITAL FORMAT 10. The semarnat has set the average number of bacteria per cm3 of water at 70, as a limit. An average value greater than 70 can cause hepatitis in people who eat clams. It has been shown that the probability distribution of the number of bacteria can be modeled as a normal one. In order to decide if certain waters meet the standard, nine water samples were taken, and the following bacteria counts were obtained: 69,74,75,70,72,73,71,73,68. Do the data show that the waters are safe for fishing, at the 5% level of significance?
