The weather in Columbus is either good, indifferent, or bad on any given day. If the weather is good today, there is a40% chance it will be good tomorrow, a 30% chance it will be indifferent, and a 30% chance it will be bad. If theweather is indifferent today, there is a 50% chance it will be good tomorrow, and a 20% chance it will beindifferent. Finally, if the weather is bad today, there is a 10% chance it will be good tomorrow and a 30% chance itwill be indifferent.a. What is the stochastic matrix, P, for this situation?b. Suppose there is a 10% chance of good weather today and a 90% chance of indifferent weather. What are thechances of bad weather tomorrow?c. Suppose the predicted weather for Monday is 40% indifferent weather and 60% bad weather. What are thechances for good weather on Wednesday?a.

Wendy needs to get to an airport from a hotel. There is 0.19 chance that she calls a cab, there is 0.26 chance that she gets a Uber. If she cannot get a cab or Uber, she will take a shuttle. If she calls a cab, there is 0.19 chance that she could miss the flight. If she gets a Uber, the chance of missing flight is 0.34. If she takes the shuttle, the chance is 0.32. If Wendy misses the flight, what is the probability that she called a cab? (Round your answer to three decimal places)
An examination consists of two papers , Paper 1 and Paper 2 . The probability of failing in Paper 1 is 0.3 and that in Paper 2 is 0.2 . Given that a student has failed in Paper 2 , the probability of failing in Paper 1 is 0.6 . Then the probability of a student failing in both the papers is equal to
The gunner on the assault boat SS Minnie Chang fires six missiles at an attacking plane. Each has a 20% chance of being on target. If two or more shells find their mark, the plane will crash. At the same time, the pilot of the plane fires 10 surface-to-air rockets, each of which has a 0.05 chance of sinking the boat. If you want to live, would you rather be on the plane or on the boat?
In a population of 10,000, there are 5000 nonsmokers, 2500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 2500 smokers of more than one pack per day. During any month, there is a 6% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 4% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is an 8% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. How many people will be in each group in 1 month, in 2 months, and in 1 year? (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.) (a) in 1 month nonsmokers people 1 pack/day or less people more than 1 pack/day people (b) in 2 months nonsmokers people 1 pack/day or less people more than 1 pack/day…
In a population of 10,000, there are 5000 nonsmokers, 2500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 2500 smokers of more than one pack per day. During any month, there is a 5% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 4% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is a 7% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. How many people will be in each group in 1 month?
A man buys a racehorse for $25,000 and enters it in two races. He plans to sell the horse afterward, hoping to make a profit. If the horse wins both races, its value will jump to $105,000. If it wins one of the races, it will be worth $65,000. If it loses both races, it will be worth only $10,000. The man believes there is a 30% chance that the horse will win the first race and a 35% chance that it will win the second one. Assuming that the two races are independent events, find the man's expected profit.
Research study comparing alcohol use for college students in the United States and Canada reports that more Canadian students drink but American students drink more. Is this study an example of an experiment? Answer yes or no and why or why not. Write two answers for this question. If one answer is wrong, the entire answer is wrong. PreviousNext
About two events A and B, we know that A occurs with 32% probability and B with 15% probability. It is also known that both intersect at the same time with a probability of 10%. Examine whether A and B are independent events.
The sales agent Parson works in three cities A, B and C. To avoid unnecessary travel, he stays all day in the same city and spends the night there, moving to another city the next day if he does not have enough work. After working one day in C, the probability of having to continue working there the next day is 0.4, the probability of having to travel to B is 0.4 and the probability of having to travel to A is 0.2. If the traveler sleeps one day in B, with a probability of 20% he will have to continue working in the same city the next day, in 60% of the cases he will travel to C, while he will go to A with a probability of 0.2. Finally, if the sales representative works all day in A, he will remain in the same city the next day with a probability of 0.1, he will go to B with a probability of 0.3 and to C with a probability of 0.6. A) If today the commuter is in C, what is the probability that he will also have to work in C on the fifth day B) What are the percentages of days that the…
An engineer decides to buy four new snow tires for his car. He finds that Retailer A is offering a special cash rebate, which depends on how much snow falls during the first winter. If this snowfall is less than 50% of the mean annual snowfall for his city, his rebate will bet 50% of the list price. If the snowfall that winter is more than 50% but less than 75% of the mean annual snowfall, his rebate will be 25% of the list price. If the snowfall is more than 75% of the mean annual snowfall, he will receive no rebate. The engineer finds from a reference book that the annual snowfall for his city has a mean of 80 cm and standard deviation of 20 cm and approximates a normal distribution. The list price for the brand and size of tires he wants is $80.00 per tire. The engineer checks other retailers and finds that Retailer B sells the same brand and size of tires with the same warranty for the same list price but offers a discount of 5% of the list price regardless of snowfall that…
Avicenna, an insurance company, offers five-year commercial property insurance policies to small businesses. If the holder of one of these policies experiences property damage in the next five years, the company must pay out $23,600 to the policy holder. Executives at Avicenna are considering offering these policies for $791 each. Suppose that for each holder of a policy there is a 3% chance they will experience property damage in the next five years and a 97% chance they will not. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) If the executives at Avicenna know that they will sell many of these policies, should they expect to make or lose money from offering them? How much? To answer, take into account the price of the policy and the expected value of the amount paid out to the holder. O Avicenna can expect to make money from offering these policies. In the long run, they should expect to make dollars on each policy sold. O Avicenna can expect to lose money from offering these policies.…
