A test consists of 10 questions made of 5 answers with only one correct answer. To pass the test, a student must answer at least 8 questions correctly. (a) If a student guesses on each question, what is the probability that the student passes the test? (b) Find the mean and standard deviation of the number of correct answers. (c) Is it unusual for a student to pass the test by guessing? Explain.
In a group of 40 people, 35% have never been abroad. Two people are selected at random without replacement and are asked about their past travel experience. a. Is this a binomial experiment? Why or why not? What is the probability that in a random sample of 2, no one has been abroad? b. What is the probability that in a random sample of 2, at least one has been abroad?
Questions An insurance company's cumulative incurred claims for the last 5 accident years are given in the following table: Development Year Accident Year 0 2018 1 2 3 4 245 267 274 289 292 2019 255 276 288 294 2020 265 283 292 2021 263 278 2022 271 It can be assumed that claims are fully run off after 4 years. The premiums received for each year are: Accident Year Premium 2018 306 2019 312 2020 318 2021 326 2022 330 You do not need to make any allowance for inflation. 1. (a) Calculate the reserve at the end of 2022 using the basic chain ladder method. (b) Calculate the reserve at the end of 2022 using the Bornhuetter-Ferguson method. 2. Comment on the differences in the reserves produced by the methods in Part 1.
