Recal the example in class and also in the notes I sent to you. Work again on the example as follows. Example: Suppose that 2 defective microwaves have been included in a shipment of 6 microwaves. The buyers want to test the 6 microwaves one at a time. Let Y denote the number of defective microwaves is found after 3 random selected ones have been tested. Find the probability distribution for Y. Y = the number of defective microwaves found after 3 have been tested What's the possible value of Y? Y P(Y=y) ? ? Questions: 1- Fill the table above with random variables and corresponding probabilities? 2- Calculate the probability that the buyers can find at least 1 defective microwave after 3 have been tested? 3- Find the probability that buyers cannot find any defective microwave after 3 random ones have been tested?
To avoid unpleasant surprises when the statement comes, you try to record all your credit card transactions in a ledger. Unfortunately, you tend to neglect recording about 5% of your purchases. Suppose that last month, you had 25 purchases on your credit card account. When the statement arrives, you count the number of purchases you forgot to record. The random variable X represents the number of unrecorded purchases in a month with 25 transactions. Find the probability that you would record all 25 purchases. 2.98 .2774 1.25 .3526
On average dog bite victims arrive at Carver Memorial Hospital at a rate of 2 victims per day. Which probability distribution is most nearly appropriate to describe the number of dog bite victims who arrive at this hospital on a given day?
When X is a binomial random variable, the mean of the probability distribution = np. A jury has 12 people on the jury. If a certain town has a population that is 9 percent a certain race, how many people of that race would you expect would be on the jury if jury selection was random (and every person was equally likely to be on the jury). Round answers to 4 decimal places as needed.

Tom the cat patrols the house in search of the mouse Jerry, who wants to get into the kitchen for something to eat. After leaving the kitchen, Tom will return after a random amount of time, which follows an exponential distribution with mean 20 seconds. Suppose Jerry needs 10 seconds to get across the house, and starts 5 second after Tom leaves the kitchen. What is the probability that Jerry the mouse will get caught?
