A k out of n system is one in which there is a group of n components, and the system will function if at least k of the components function. For a certain 4 out of 6 system, assume that on a rainy day each component has probability 0.4 of functioning, and that on a nonrainy day each component has probability 0.8 of functioning. a) What is the probability that the system functions on a rainy day? b) What is...

Consider the state space {rain, no rain} to describe the weather each day. Let {Xn} be the stochastic process with this state space describing the weather on the nth day. Suppose the weather obeys the following rules: – If it has rained for two days straight, there is a 20% chance that the next day will be rainy. – If today is rainy but yesterday was not, there is a 50% chance that tomorrow will be rainy. – If yesterday...

In my friend’s town (not Vancouver), it's rainy one third of the days. Given that it is rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/2, and given that it is not rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/4. If it's rainy and there is heavy traffic, I arrive late for work with probability 1/2. On the other hand, the probability of being late is reduced to 1/8 if it is not rainy and there is no heavy...
