MASTERY EXERCISE COVER FORM

NAME______________________________________

(PRINT YOUR NAME WITH UPPER CASE LETTERS. UNDERLINE YOUR LAST NAME TWICE)

DIRECTIONS: (1) PHOTOCOPY YOUR TEST.

(2) On lined paper rework every question where you lost points. You should either write 2-3 sentences or show computations. Indicate on this cover sheet which questions you are redoing.

Turn IN (1) this cover sheet followed by (2) your solutions to the mastery test problems plus (3) a photocopy of your test by Wednesday, October 11 in class in order to receive 1/3 of the points you lost. Should you turn in this Mastery work after class on WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11 but before Monday, OCTOBER 16 at 7 PM then you will receive 1/4 of the points lost.

No credit will be given for Mastery Work which are handed in after MONDAY, October 16 at 7 PM.

No credit will be given if you donˇ¦t turn in a cover sheet plus a photocopy of your test.

PART II MASTERY PROBLEMS. DO THE PART FOR WHICH YOU LOST POINTS ON A SEPARATE SHEET.

II- 1. The probability that Laboratory A will make an error equals 0.05 and the probability that Laboratory B will make an error equals 0.05, the probability that Laboratory A and B will both make errors equals 0.002.

(a) Are the laboratories independent with respect to whether or not they make an error?

(b) What is the probability that at least one laboratory makes an error?

(c) What is the probability that Laboratory A makes an error and Laboratory B does not make an error?

(d) What is the probability that both laboratories make an error?

II-2. The distribution of waiting time at a traffic light is found to have mean equal to 5 minutes (m =5) and standard deviation equal to 0.5 minutes (s =0.5). Use Chebyshevˇ¦s Theorem to answer the following questions.

What is the upper bound to the fraction of waiting times that will deviate from 5 minutes by 1.5 minute or more?

What is the interval over which we will observe at least 90% of the waiting times?

What is the lower bound to the probability that the waiting times will be between 3 minutes and 7 minutes?

II-3. Mr. M. owns a car showroom that is visited by many people every day. The probability that a person who enters his showroom buys a car equals 0.20. Suppose we sample n=10 visitors to the showroom. We assume that the probability distribution of the visitors who purchase a car, X, is binomial.

What is the mean value of X, the number of visitors in a sample of 10 who purchase a car?

What is the standard deviation of X, the number of visitors in a sample of 10 who purchase a car?

What is the standard deviation of Y, the number of visitors in a sample of 10 who do not purchase a car?

What is the probability that EXACTLY 2 visitors in a sample of 10 purchases a car?

(e) What is the probability that more than 6 visitors in a sample of 10 purchase a car?

(f) Suppose that on a particular day we have more than 6 visitors in 10 buy a car, what should we conclude about this day? (Hint: use the result in (e))?

II-4 Prove P (AÈ BÈ C) = P (A) + P (B) ˇV P(C) -P (A Ç B) - P (A Ç C)- P (B Ç C) + P (A Ç B Ç C).
