Kerry was given 10 numbers that had a sum of 330 and was
asked to find the mode. She was told that the mode occurred 4
times in the set of numbers and the sum of the rest of numbers
was 174. What number was the mode in the data set?
A friend who lives in Los Angeles makes frequent consulting trips to Washington, D.C.; 60% of the time she travels on airline #1, 20% of the time on airline #2, and the remaining 20% of the time on
airline #3. For airline #1, flights are late into D.C. 25% of the time and late into L.A. 20% of the time. For airline #2, these percentages are 30% and 15%, whereas for airline #3 the percentages are
30% and 20%. If we learn that on a particular trip she arrived late at exactly one of the two destinations, what are the posterior probabilities of having flown on airlines #1, #2, and #3? Assume that
the chance of a late arrival in L.A. is unaffected by what happens on the flight to D.C. [Hint: From the tip of each first-generation branch on a tree diagram, draw three second-generation branches
labeled, respectively, O late, 1 late, and 2 late.] (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
