An article states that false-positives in polygraph tests (tests in which an individual fails even though he or she is telling the truth) are relatively common and occur about 10% of the time. Suppose that such a test is given to 10 trustworthy individuals. (Round all answers to four decimal places.) What is the probability that all 10 pass?

Emergency 911 calls to a small municipality in Idaho come in at the rate of one every two minutes. Assume that the number of 911 calls is a random variable that can be described by the Poisson distribution. (a) What is the expected number of 911 calls in one hour? per hour (b) What is the probability of three 911 calls in five minutes? If required, round your answer to four decimal places. (c) What is the probability of no 911 calls during a five-minute period? If required, round your answer to four decimal places.

According to a study conducted by an organization, the proportion of Americans who were afraid to fly in 2006 was 0.10. A random sample of 1,300 Americans results in 143 indicating that they are afraid to fly. Explain why this is not necessarily evidence that the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly has increased. Select the correct choice below and. if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. This is not necessarily evidence that the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly has increased above 0.10 because the probability of obtaining a value equal to or more extreme than the sample proportion is . which is not unusual.

A quality inspector must verify whether a machine that packages snack foods is working correctly. The inspector will randomly select a sample of packages and weigh the amount of snack food in each. Assume that the weights of food in packages filled by this machine have a standard deviation of 0.30 ounce. An estimate of the mean amount of snack food in each package must be reported with 99.6% confidence and a margin of error of no more than 0.12 ounces. What would be the minimum sample size for the number of packages the inspector must select?

Sketch the domain D bounded by y = x^2, y = (1/2)x^2, and y=6x. Use a change of variables with the map x = uv, y = u^2 (for u ? 0) to calculate Double integral Dy^ - 1dx dy. This is an improper integral since f(x, y) = y^ - 1 is undefined at (0, 0), but it becomes proper after changing variables.
