- You manage a call center and your job is to make sure the employees aren’t slacking off when they are on the clock. You notice that one employee goes 20 minutes without picking up the phone, and you know the expected time between calls is 2 minutes. Derive an upper bound for the probability that the employee didn’t receive a call during the 20 minutesarrow_forwardThere are N sites that need protection (number them 1 to N). Someone is going to pick one of them to attack, and you must pick one to protect. Suppose that the attacker is going to attack site i with probability q;. You plan on selecting a site to protect, with probability pi of selecting site i. The choice of {qi} and {p;} represent the attacker's and defender's strategy, respectively.arrow_forwardThe lowest portfolio risk will result when the asset returns are perfectly positively correlated.

- It is known that roughly 2/3 of all human beings have a dominant right foot or eye. Is there also right-sided dominance in kissing behavior? An article reported that in a random sample of 136 kissing couples, both people in 86 of the couples tended to lean more to the right than to the left. (Use α = 0.05.) (a) If 2/3 of all kissing couples exhibit this right-leaning behavior, what is the probability that the number in a sample of 136 who do so differs from the expected value by at least as much as what was actually observed? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value.arrow_forwardXYZ Corp has filed 100,000 purchase orders during its existence. 1100 of those purchase orders have had errors. Using empirical probability, the probability of the next purchase order that XYZ processes having an error is what.arrow_forwardzample 3: Alexis is selling girl scout cookies.
