You are planning an outdoor product launch weekend (Saturday and Sunday) February next year. From weather data you estimate that any given day has probability 0.5 of being rainy and probability 0.5 to have no rain. When considering 2 consecutive days, the probability that the 2 day will have the same weather (rain or no rain) as the previous day is 0.8.Define the following 3 random variables for the product launch weekendX_1 Is equal to 0 if it does not rain on Saturday, and equal to 1 if it rains on the Saturday.X_2 Is equal to 0 if it does not rain on Sunday, and equal to 1 if it rains on the Sunday.Y Is the number of days of rain during the product launch weekend (out of 2), so Y=X_1 + X_2. 2.iWhat is the expected number of days of rain during the product launch weekend?

In women’s tennis, a player must win 2 out of 3 sets to win a match. If a player wins the first 2 sets, she wins the match and the third set is not played. Player V and Player M will compete in a match. Player V and Player M have competed against each other many times. Historical data show that each player is equally likely to win the first set. If Player V wins the first set, the probability that she will win the second set is 0.60. If Player V loses the first set, the probability that she will lose the second set is 0.70. If Player V wins exactly one of the first two sets, the probability that she will win the third set is 0.45. What is the probability that Player V will win a match against Player M?
According to the survey of American households, the probability that the household owns Smart 3D HDTV if the house has two earning members is 51%. Of the households surveyed, 47% did not have two earning members and 48%had Smart 3D HDTVs. The probability that a household does not have two earning members and does not own a Smart 3D HDTV is
A web server's visit always comes from five sites. The percentages of known visits from sites 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are 20%, 30%, 15%, 10% and 25% respectively. The probability of visits from five sites lasting more than 2 minutes is 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 0.2 and 0.9 respectively. Now randomly select a visit. What is the probability that the visit lasts more than 2 minutes? If the selected visit last more than 2 minutes, which sites does it most likely come from?
You are interested in the number of people that will visit your restaurant in the noon hour. Historically, there is a 10% chance that more than 10 customers will visit, a 30% chance that more than 8 customers will visit, a 50% chance that more than 6 customers will visit, a 80% chance that more than 4 customers will visit, and a 95% chance that at least 2 customers will visit during the noon hour. What is the probability that 4 or less customers will visit the restaurant -- the number required to break even financially for the day?Express your answer as a percent value. So if your answer is 100% for example, enter 100. Round your answer to the nearest percent.
Answer ASAP, I'll upvote. Thanks. The championship series of a particular team sport requires that a team wins 3 games out of 5 possible games be declared the champion. The series ends once a team has won 3 games. Suppose that teams X and Y face each other in the championship games and that team X has 65% probability of winning a game over team Y. What is the probability that team X wins the championship in 4 games?

A manufacturer makes two models of an item: model I, which accounts for 75% of unit sales, and model II, which accounts for 25% of unit sales. Because of defects, the manufacturer has to replace (or exchange) 5% of its model I and 10% of its model II. If a model is selected at random, find the probability that it will be defective. Please round the final answer to 2 or 3 decimal places. P(detective)=
