Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct. Since Richard has not attended class recently, he doesn't know any of the answers. Assuming that Richard guesses on all ten questions, find the indicated probabilities. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that he will answer all questions correctly? (b) What is the probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly? (c) What is the probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly? Compute this probability two ways. First, use the rule for mutually exclusive events and the probabilities shown in the binomial probability distribution table. Then use the fact that P(r ≥ 1) = 1 − P(r = 0). Compare the two results. Should they be equal? Are they equal? If not, how do you account for the difference? They should be equal, but may not be due to table error. They should be equal, but may differ slightly due to rounding error. They should not be equal, but are equal. They should be equal, but differ substantially. (d) What is the probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly? 5. –/3.54 points BBUnderStat12 5.2.016.

However, cattle ranchers in this area have made a determined effort to exterminate wolves. From 1918 to the present, approximately 70% of wolves in the region are male, and 30% are female. Biologists suspect that male wolves are more likely than females to return to an area where the population has been greatly reduced. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) Before 1918, in a random sample of 12 wolves spotted in the region, what is the probability that 9 or more were male? What is the probability that 9 or more were female? What is the probability that fewer than 6 were female? (b) For the period from 1918 to the present, in a random sample of 12 wolves spotted in the region, what is the probability that 9 or more were male? What is the probability that 9 or more were female? What is the probability that fewer than 6 were female? The one-time fling! Have you ever purchased an article of clothing (dress, sports jacket, etc.), worn the item once to a party, and then returned the purchase? This is called a one-time fling. About 5% of all adults deliberately do a one-time fling and feel no guilt about it! In a group of ten adult friends, what is the probability of the following? (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) no one has done a one-time fling (b) at least one person has done a one-time fling (c) no more than two people have done a one-time fling 6. –/3.54 points BBUnderStat12 5.2.017.MI.

Suppose that nine married women are having coffee together one morning. Find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) All of them dislike their mother-in-law. (b) None of them dislike their mother-in-law. (c) At least seven of them dislike their mother-in-law. (d) No more than six of them dislike their mother-in-law. A research team conducted a study showing that approximately 15% of all businessmen who wear ties wear them so tightly that they actually reduce blood flow to the brain, diminishing cerebral functions. At a board meeting of 20 businessmen, all of whom wear ties, what are the following probabilities? (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) at least one tie is too tight (b) more than two ties are too tight (c) no tie is too tight (d) at least 18 ties are not too tight In the binomial probability distribution, let the number of trials be n = 4, and let the probability of success be p = 0.3418. Use a calculator to compute the following. (a) The probability of three successes. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (b) The probability of four successes. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (c) The probability of three or four successes. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) 8. –/3.54 points BBUnderStat12 5.2.019.MI.

(a) For what value of p is the distribution symmetric? p = What is the expected value of this distribution? Is the distribution centered over the value? Yes No (b) For small values of p, is the distribution skewed right or left? right left (c) For large values of p, is the distribution skewed right or left? right left 11. –/3.54 points BBUnderStat12 5.3.006.

The company claims to have a 70% success rate. Suppose that you have the names of five friends for whom you have no addresses and decide to use the company to track them.
