Let L is event that student is being let out of class late and T shows the event that student miss the train. So
P(L) = 0.26
P(T|L) = 0.82
So the probability that he gets out of class late and misses the train is
P(T and L) = P(T|L) P(L) = 0.82 * 0.26= 0.2132
Answer: 0.2132

ENGR 315, Summer 2019 Name 3. Supp0se that Tom, an ENGR 315 commuter student, can decide to get to the Widener campus by one of three modes of transportation, i.e. car (C), bus (B), or train(T). If he decides to go by car, there will be a 50% chance that he will be late. If he goes by bus, the probability of being late is 20%. If he travels by train, the probability of being late is only 1 %...
Steve is a student in a statistics course. He is not a good student. A multiple-choice test is coming up and he will just rely on luck to pass the test. There are 10 multiple-choice questions on the test, with 5 possible answers given for each question, one of them being the correct one. Steve is going to guess the answer to each question. What is the probability that Steve gets no answers correct? What is the probability that Steve...
A student will keep guessing answers for a problem until he gets the right answer. Assume that the correctness of each answer he gives is independent of his other answers. There is a 30% chance that an answer will be correct. Let X be the number of incorrect answers the student guesses. Note that X is a geometric random variable. Determine the probability that the student makes exactly 3 incorrect guesses before getting the right answer. Determine the probability that...
(1 point) An instructor gives his class a set of 18 problems with the information that the next quiz will consist of a random selection or 7 of them. If a student has figured out how to do 12 of the problems, what is the probability the he or she will answer correctly (a) all 7 problems? (b) at least 6 problems?

Suppose that a university student has to take 10 independent courses in the final year. The class of honors awarded is based on the results of the final year examination. If a student gets A‐ or above for at least 8 courses, he/she will be awarded a first class honors.Under ordinary circumstances, John will get A‐ or above for at least 8 courses with probability of 0.2. However, with a probability of 0.3, John will be in a low mood...
John is going to buy baseball cards until he gets his favorite player. John only has enough money to buy 5 packs of cards. Suppose that each pack has a 1 out of 5 chance of containing the card John is looking for Let the random variable X be the number of packs of cards John buys. Compute the probability mass function for X, and compute P(X2 3).
Every Monday, James has a math class and a biology class. The probability that he will have his math homework done is 0.56 and the probability he will have his biology homework done is 0.45. If the probability he will have his biology homework done but not his math homework is 0.21, what is the probability he will have his math homework done given that he does not have his biology done?
5. A student takes a multiple-choice exam where each question has 5 possible answers. He works a question correctly if he knows the answer, otherwise he guesses at random. Suppose he knows the answer to 80% of the questions. (a) What is the probability that on a question chosen at random the student gets the correct (b) Given that the student gets the correct answer to this question, what is the probability answer? that he actually knew the answer?
