Customers are used to evaluate preliminary product designs. In the past, 91% of highly successful products received good reviews, 57% of moderately successful products received good reviews, and 15% of poor products received good reviews. In addition, 40% of products have been highty successful, 35% have been moderately successful and 25% have been poor products. Round your answers to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654). (a) What is the probability that a product attains a good review? (b) If a new design attains a good review, what is the probability that it will be a highly successful product? (c) If a product does not attain a good review, what is the probability that it will be a highly successful product? (a) 5985 (b) 6082 (c) i 0897
9. The national average SAT score (for Verbal and Math) is 1028. Suppose that nothing is known about the shape of the distribution and that the standard deviation is 100. If a random sample of 200 scores were selected and the sample mean were calculated to be 1050, would you be surprised? Explain.

Which of the following describe the Frequentist approach? Select all that apply. Question 16 options: Two Frequentists would calculate a probability in the same way. It is objective. It is based on observed data. It is based on the long-term relative frequency of an event occurring. The normal distribution can be described by which of the following parameters? Question 28 options: X σ N
There are three groups of people who like Popcorn, Candy, and Soda. 12 people like Popcorn, 11 people like Candy, 10 people like Soda. 5 people like Popcorn AND Candy, 6 people like Candy AND Soda, and 3 people like Popcorn AND Soda. Only 2 people like ALL THREE. So how many people like Popcorn or Candy (or both) BUT NOT Soda?
P = total number of individuals infected on any day N = total number of individuals infected on day zero R = number of individuals infected by contact with 1 person Find the number of day where P = 750 Pzero (ppl with the disease on day zero) = N P1 ( ppl with the disease of day 1) = N + NR = N(1+R) P2 = N +NR + R(N + NR) = N + NR + NR + NR^2 = N + 2NR + NR^2 = N(1 +2R + R^2) = N(1 + R)^2 P3 = (N + 2NR + NR^2) + R(N +2NR +NR^2) = N + 2NR + NR^2 + NR +2NR^2 + NR^3 = N + 3NR + 3NR^2 + NR^3 = N(1 + 3R + 3R^2 + R^3) = N(1 + R)^3 Pi (people with the disease on day i) = N(1+R)^i use python
Medical records show a sample population of 1000 people, of those 1000 people, 98% do not have a terminal illness and 2% do have a terminal illness. A Health Insurance company would like try out a new cheaper test for terminal illness. Their results show that 98% of the people that do have a terminal illness test positive, while 1% of the people who do not have a terminal illness test positive for one. A corporation known as Ken’s Kids is concerned about patients that are slipping through the cracks with this new medical testing. If the new medical testing is adopted, what % of the people will be misdiagnosed as not having a terminal illness, but really have one? Assuming a population of 200 million people, how many people that have a terminal illness, given this new testing will never know that they do? (Please show all work , and have a legend for symbols).
A particular telephone number is used to receive both voice calls and fax messages. Suppose that 20% of the incoming calls involve fax messages, and consider a sample of 20 incoming calls. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that at most 6 of the calls involve a fax message?(b) What is the probability that exactly 6 of the calls involve a fax message?(c) What is the probability that at least 6 of the calls involve a fax message?(d) What is the probability that more than 6 of the calls involve a fax message?
