Chapter 10.3, Problem 28E
In Exercises 25-32, we use the Hamilton method to do the apportionment.
The population paradox.The current enrollments at a university’s three campuses are shown below. The New State University’s administration has decided to upgrade 18 computer labs according to the enrollments at the three campuses. One year later, the enrollments have increased at each campus and again it is decided to upgrade 18 labs. Does this example illustrate the population paradox? Explain.
| Campus | Students (now) |
Students (one year later) |
| Altus | 7,200 | 7,480 |
| Brightsfield | 20,500 | 21,140 |
| Center City | 52,300 | 52,900 |

Please solve the following Statistics and Probability Problem (show all work) :
The probability that a patient recovers from a rare blood disease is 0.4 and 10 people are known to havecontracted this disease. Let X denote the random variable which denotes the number of patient who survivefrom the disease.1. Plot the probability mass function (pmf) of X.2. Plot the cumulative distribution function (cdf) of X.3. What is the probability that at least 8 survive, i.e., P {X ≥ 8}?4. What is the probability that 3 to 8 survive, i.e., P {3 ≤ X ≤ 8}?
2) Compute the following anti-derivative.

Please solve the following Probability and Statistics problem (please double check solution and provide explanation):
A binary communication channel carries data as one of two types of signals denoted by 0 and 1. Owing tonoise, a transmitted 0 is sometimes received as a 1 and a transmitted 1 is sometimes received as a 0. For agiven channel, assume a probability of 0.94 that a transmitted 0 is correctly received as a 0 and a probability0.91 that a transmitted 1 is received as a 1. Further assume a probability of 0.45 of transmitting a 0. If asignal is sent, determine
1. Probability that a 1 is received2. Probability that a 0 is received3. Probability that a 1 was transmitted given that a 1 was received4. Probability that a 0 was transmitted given that a 0 was received5. Probability of an error
