At a busy city intersection the probability is 0.08 that an accident will occur on any given day. However, if it rains that day, then the probability of an accident is 0.24. Weather records show that it rains about 10 percent of the days in this city. Suppose you read in the paper that an accident did occur at the intersection yesterday. Knowing this, what is the probability that it rained 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...

Congratulations - it's time for a new car, to be used for business use, of course. You only need it for 3 years before you'll want to start looking for something else, and you've got three options, described below. In options A and B, the car may be sold at the end of 3 years for $7500. Given a 12% interest rate, compounded MONTHLY (so think about how many periods you have, too), compute the EUAC for option A: Option...

A researcher wishes to examine whether time of day (morning versus afternoon) affects the memory of older and younger participants. He obtains a sample of 40 older individuals and 40 younger individuals and gives them a passage to read. They are later given a test over the passage (scores on the test could range from 0 to 30). Half of the individuals are randomly assigned to read the passage and take the test in the morning, and the other half...
