Light bulbs are tested for their life-span. It is found that 16% of the light bulbs are rejected. A random sample of 50 bulbs is taken from stock and tested. The random variable X is the number of bulbs that are rejected. What is the probability that the value of X is at least 5?
An insurance company found that 2.4% of male drivers between the ages of 18 and 25 are involved in serious accidents annually. To simplify the analysis, assume that every such accident costs the insurance company $62,000 and that a driver can only have one of these accidents in a year. Complete parts (a) through (c). (a) If the company charges $2,600 for such coverage, what is the chance that it loses money on a single policy? P(loses money)= .024 (Type an integer or a decimal.) (b) Suppose that the company writes 1,000 such policies to a collection of drivers. What is the probability that the company makes a profit on these policies? Assume that the drivers don't run into each other and behave independently. P(profit) = .976 (Round to five decimal places as needed.)
In CUI, 45 percent of students play football, 30 percent plays volleyball, and 15 percent plays both. If a student is selected at random, then the probability that he plays volleyball or football is:
Suppose you model a game of chance with a discrete probability distribution. Let X be the net amount of money or lost by the player. Let pX be the probability of the corresponding outcome. The three events are as follows: There is a 23% chance the player wins 7 dollars. there is a 38% chance the player loses 4 dollars. there is a 39% chance the player breaks even.

A survey showed that 83% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 18 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 17 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 17 a significantly high number of adults requiring eyesight correction? ... The probability that at least 17 of the 18 adults require eyesight correction is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

The probability of having 3 boys out of 4 children is to be determined. A simulation is conducted in which the experimental probability is exactly equal to theoretical actual probability. If the event occured 53 times during trials, how many trials were conducted.
A study showed that in 1990, 47% of all those involved in a fatal car crash wore seat belts. Of those in a fatal crash who wore seat belts, 46% were injured and 26% were killed. For those not wearing seat belts, the comparable figures were 43% and 51%, respectively. Find the probability that a randomly selected person who was unharmed in a fatal crash was not wearing a seat belt.
