Researchers often enter a lot of data into statistical software programs. The probability of making zero to two errors per 1,000 keystrokes is 0.49, and the probability of making three to five errors per 1,000 keystrokes is 0.26. Find the probabilities (per 1,000 keystrokes) associated with each of the following.
(a) at most two errors (b) at least three errors (c) at most five errors (d) more than five errors

4. + MBasicStat7 12.E.045. My Notes + Ask Your Teacher Spell-checking software catches "nonword errors" that result in a string of letters that is not a word, as when "the" is typed as "teh". When undergraduates are asked to write a 250-word essay (without spell-checking), the number X of nonword errors has the following distribution. Value of x Probability 0 0.05 1 0.15 2 0.29 3 0.25 4 0.26 (a) Is the random variable X discrete or continuous? Why? X...
1. Consider the experiment of rolling a pair of dice values showing on the dice. experiment of rolling a pair of dice. Suppose we are interested in the sum of face a. How many simple events are possible? b. List the sample space. c. What is the probability of obtaining a 7? d. What is the probability of obtaining a value of 9 or more? Because each roll has six possible even values (2.4,6,8,10,12) and five possible odd values (3,5,7,9,11),...

Question 1 (Mandatory) (1 point) Saved Modern software systems are blurring the distinction between local files and web pages, which may be stored on a remote computer, so the amount of data that we might wish to search is virtually unlimited. Remarkably, the methods that we shall study can support search and insert operations on symbol tables containing trillions of items or more using only four or five references to small blocks of data. 1) True...
2. Investment timing options Companies often need to choose between making an investment now or waiting till the company can gather more relevant information about the potential project. This opportunity to wait before making the decision is called the investment timing option. Consider the case: General Forge and Foundry Co. is considering a three-year project that will require an initial investment of $41,000 If market demand is strong, General Forge and Foundry Co. thinks that the project will generate cash...

Like any piece of software, however, Excel isn't perfect. Before you invest in a license, compare the pros and cons to decide whether Excel is right for you. Pro: Data Organization One of...
Let X be normally distributed with mean 100 cm and standard deviation 5 cm.
(a) On the diagram below, shade the region representing P(X > 105).
