3. In experiments, it is shown that on average only 1 in 10 wells drilled produces oil. Let x be the number of drills until the first success (removing oil). Assuming drilling is an independent event, then: A. Find the values for p(1), p(2), and p(3). B. Determine the formula for p(x).

A manufacturing company employs two inspecting devices to sample a fraction of their output for quality control purposes. The first inspection monitor is able to accurately detect 99.3% of the defective items it receives, whereas the second is able to do so in 99.7% of the cases. Assume that four defective items are produced and sent out for inspection. Let X and Y denote the number of items that will be identified as defective by inspecting devices 1 and 2, respectively. Determine the following. 1) E(x)2) E(Y|X=2)3) V(Y|X=2)4) Are X and Y independent? Why?

Persons having Raynaud's syndrome are apt to suffer a sudden impairment of blood circulation in fingers and toes. In an experiment to study the extent of this impairment, each subject immersed a forefinger in water and the resulting heat output (cal/cm2/min) was measured. For m = 9 subjects with the syndrome, the average heat output was x = 0.61, and for n = 9 nonsufferers, the average output was 2.09. Let ?1 and ?2 denote the true average heat outputs for the sufferers and nonsufferers, respectively. Assume that the two distributions of heat output are normal with ?1 = 0.3 and ?2 = 0.5. (a) Consider testing H0: ?1 − ?2 = −1.0 versus Ha: ?1 − ?2 < −1.0 at level 0.01. Describe in words what Ha says, and then carry out the test. Ha says that the average heat output for sufferers is the same as that of non-sufferers.Ha says that the average heat output for sufferers is less than 1 cal/cm2/min below that of non-sufferers. Ha says that the average heat output for sufferers is more…

An SRS of 100 flights by Speedy Airlines showed that 64 were on time. An SRS of 100 flights by Happy Airlines showed that 80 were on time. Let pS be the proportion of on-time flights for all Speedy Airline flights, and let pH be the proportion of all on-time flights for all Happy Airlines flights. Is there evidence of a difference in the on-time rate for the two airlines? To determine this, you test the hypotheses H0 : pS – pH  0, Ha : pS – pH  0. The P-value of your test is 0.0117. Which of the following is an appropriate interpretation of the P-value? a. If the on-time rates for the two airlines are equal, there is a 0.0117 probability of getting samples with a difference as far or farther from zero as these samples. b. If the on-time rates for the two airlines are not equal, the probability of getting samples with a difference as far or farther from zero as these samples is 0.9883. c. The probability of making a Type I error is 0.0117. d. The probability of making a Type II error…

To increase egg production, a farmer decided to increase the number of times the lights in his henhouse were on. Ten hens were randomly selected, and the number of eggs each produced was recorded. After one week of lengthened light time, the same hens were monitored again. The data is given here. At α = 0.05, can it be concluded that the increased light time increased egg production?
