A pandemic has begun and has been spreading in almost all countries. A tipster sent a handwritten letter to a military camp. According to the letter, the disease was due to a virus that a
certain group of scientists made, and was initially developed to start a biological warfare among nations. A cure was also made alongside with it and showed that the disease may be
controlled. Unfortunately, the cure was secured in a safe in a laboratory and is locked with a code. The safe was locked using the function:
f (x) = 3z – 7
You are one of the troop tasked to divulge the code and open the safe. If this is the function used to lock the safe, what would be its inverse function? Write your complete solution in finding
the inverse and upload a photo of this solution here.

Many students over the last couple of years have been earning money as social networking service influencers. The amount
of influencers and their popularity has been growing steadily. The top 50 social networking service influencers have over 3
billion followers together. Unfortunately, this development has a downside for dogs. According to a recent newspaper article,
dogs deemed less playful for video sharing social networking services are being dumped at shelters. The general perception
of playfulness disproportionately affects older dogs. The accompanying table gives the data for a random selection of dogs
from a local shelter for a correlation of age and days. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the average number of
days a dog that is 4 years old will stay at the shelter.

A PC board contains 205 components. Each component has the probability of not failing as
0.9996. All components are required not to fail if the PC board is not to fail. Each component
is independent of all the others as far as failure mechanisms are concerned. Find (i) The
probability of exactly one component failing
(ii) The probability of the PC board not failing
(iii) The probability of atmost one component failing

- KALI, Inc.: An Example of Acceptance Sampling KALI, Inc., manufactures home appliances that are marketed under a variety of trade names. However, KALI does not manufacture every component used in its products. Several com- ponents are purchased directly from suppliers. For example, one of the components that KALI purchases for use in home air conditioners is an overload protector, a device that turns off the compressor if it overheats. The compressor can be seriously damaged if the over- load protector does not function properly; therefore, KALI is concerned about the quality of the overload protectors. One way to ensure quality would be to test every component received; this approach is known as 100% inspection. However, to determine proper func- tioning of an overload protector, the device must be subjected to time-consuming and ex- pensive tests, and KALI cannot justify testing every overload protector it receives. Instead, KALI uses an acceptance sampling plan to monitor the…arrow_forward2arrow_forwardwhat is different between quantum cryptography and quantum key distribution??arrow_forward
- Pasquist Water Company (PWC) operates a 24-hour facility designed to efficiently fill water-hauling tanker trucks. Trucks arrive randomly to the facility and wait in line to access a wellhead pump. Since trucks vary in size and the filling operation is manually performed by the truck driver, the time to fill a truck is also random. a. If the manager of PWC uses the "multiple-server model" to calculate the operating characteristics of the facility's waiting line, list three assumptions she must make regarding the behavior of waiting trucks and the truck arrival process. (Check all assumptions that apply.) A. Trucks don't balk B. Trucks arrive according to a Poisson process C. Trucks wait until being served D. Trucks might renege E. Trucks might balk F. First-come, last-served basis b. Suppose an average of 288 trucks arrive each day, there are four wellhead pumps, and each pump can serve an average of 4 trucks per hour. o What is the probability that exactly 10 trucks will arrive…arrow_forwardYou are conducting a compliance audit of the training department where you work at BeyondUs.

If there are 1,000 future terrorists in a population of 400 million, and one of these 400 million is randomly selected, scrutinized by the system, and identified as a future terrorist, what is the probability that he/she actually is a future terrorist?

- Cranberry juice It’s common folk wisdom that drinkingcranberry juice can help prevent urinary tract infections inwomen. In 2001 the British Medical Journal reported theresults of a Finnish study in which three groups of50 women were monitored for these infections over 6months. One group drank cranberry juice daily, another group drank a lactobacillus drink, and the third drank nei-ther of those beverages, serving as a control group. In the control group, 18 women developed at least one infection,compared to 20 of those who consumed the lactobacillusdrink and only 8 of those who drank cranberry juice. Doesthis study provide supporting evidence for the value ofcranberry juice in warding off urinary tract infections?a) Is this a survey, a retrospective study, a prospectivestudy, or an experiment?
