- Suppose a person is thinking about entering a MarioKart competition at theirlocal videogame store. The competition costs 20 dollars to enter. The competition consists of 10 matches. The person knows that their chance of winning each match is 65% and that each match is independent of the others. The payout for the competition is: WIN ALL 10 Matches: 500 Dollar Prize WIN 9 Matches: 250 Dollar PrizeWIN 8 Matches: 50 Dollar Prize OTHERWISE: Nothing 1) Suppose that this person enters the competition 5 times.What is the probability they break even?(Hint: To break even they would need to win the $50 prize twice and lose the other three times. Use a modified binomial to calculate this probability.)arrow_forwardA system has six components connected as shown in the following diagram: A Assume A, B, C, D, E, and F function independently. If the probabilities that A, B, C, D, E, and F fail are 0.01, 0.05, 0.02, 0.08, 0.10, and 0.05 respectively, what is the probability that the system fails?arrow_forwardA researcher wants to see if there is a difference in APGAR scores of newborns depending on whether the mother smoked during pregnancy or not.

If the probabilities that A, B, C, D, and E function 0.50, 0.65, 0.75, 0.95, and 0.80 respectively, what is the probability that the system fails?arrow_forwardA production line has three machines A, B, and C, with reliabilities of .90, .95, and .92, respectively. The machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. Engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line's reliability. Plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. In either case, three machines (A, B, and C) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three. a. Compute overall system reliability under Plan 1. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) Reliability b. Compute overall system reliability under Plan 2. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) Reliabilityarrow_forwardDuring the get-together for Gerdau developers, 17 employees sat around a large round table. Each of the collaborators received a paper that said if he should say only the truth or only a lie. During the dynamic performed, each one should say which colleagues were lying and which were telling the truth. At the end of the game, all employees who were participating said: "The two people next to me are liars". At a minimum, how many employees received the paper saying to tell only the truth?arrow_forward

All participants are asked to complete a task sometime before a deadline (10 days from now). The computer randomly assigns participants to one of three groups, and emails them their instructions; one group receives a reward as soon as they do the task (contingent reward); a second group receives rewards as soon as they finish the task as long as it is before the deadline (non-contingent reward) and the third group does not receive rewards at all (no reward). Three participants in the no reward condition do not complete the task, and so are dropped from analyses. The dependent variable is the amount of time (in days) it takes participants to complete the task. The JAMOVI output is attached. Post-hoc Tukey tests show that...
