.1 The probability of an event depends on the randomvariable X and can be expressed by the following formula:P(A | x) = {1(1 - e-kx for x > 0,for x < 0(k > 0).Find the total probability of the event A if X is a normally distributedrandom variable with expectation x and variance o².

1% of all products in a factory are defective. During quality control, a test is applied that detects a defective product with a probability of 0.99, and in 1% of cases it incorrectly rejects a correct product. Find the probability that the product that is rejected is actually correct, as well as the probability that the product that is accepted in the test as correct is in fact defective.

You are playing the lottery for 30 days in a row, assuming each day is independent and you know your probability of winning on any given day is p = 0.3 a.)What is the probability that you will win on 5 of the 30 days? b.)What is the expected value of the number of times you will win in 30 days? c.)What is the variance of the number of times you will win in 30 days?
A state government hired a contractor for a road-construction project. The contractor's type, its cost efficienciency, is unknown to the government. There is 2/3 probability of the its construction cost being 3 (billion dollars per lane) and 1/3 probability of the cost being 5. More lanes yield more social benefit in the form of faster travel and fewer accidents. The social value V (measured in billions of dollars) from having N lanes on the highway is: V-15N-N?/2. The government is interested in choose N and writing a contract to maximize the benefit to the state (V) net of the fee paid to the contractor (call it F); G-V-F. Your goal as a government official is to design a pair of contracts to separate the types of contractor. You want the contractor to choose "Contract L: Build N lanes and get paid RL dollars" if its cost type is low cost of $3 (billion dollars per lane) and to choose "Contract H: Build NH lanes and get paid RH dollars" if its cost type is high cost $5 (billion…
