A student must pass through two sets of traffic lights on his
way to work. The first light is red 50% of the time, yellow 5% of
the time and green 45% of the time. The second light is red 20% of
the time, yellow 10% of the time and green 70% of the time.
Assuming that the lights operate independently, what is the
probability that the student has to stop at least one time on his
way to work?...

Please answer with method or formula used.
A) Puenaa is getting married tomorrow, at an outdoor ceremony in
the desert. In recent years, it has rained only 5 days each year.
Unfortunately, the weatherman has predicted rain for tomorrow. When
it actually rains, the weatherman correctly forecasts rain 90% of
the time. When it doesn't rain, he incorrectly forecasts rain 10%
of the time. What is the probability that it will rain on the day
of Puenaa's wedding?

An indicator light can be in one of three states: OFF, FLASHING
and ON, with probabilities 1/2, 2/5 and 1/10 respectively. A test
panel has five such lights whose states are mutually
independent.
(a) What is the probability that three or more lights are OFF and
at most one is ON?
(b) A second test panel with five such lights is observed
independently. Let X be the total number of lights which
are FLASHING among the two panels. Determine the...

In a large university, statistics show that 75% of students live
in dormitories. Thus, for any student chosen at random, the
university administration estimates a probability of 0.75 that the
student will live in dormitories. A random sample of 5 students is
selected. Answer the following questions.
1.What is the probability that the sample contains exactly 3
students who live in the dormitories?
2.What is the probability that fewer than 2 students live in the
dormitories?
3.What is the expected...

Consider randomly selecting a student at a large university, and
let A be the event that the selected student has a Visa
card and B be the analogous event for MasterCard. Suppose
that
P(A) = 0.7 and P(B) = 0.4.(a)
Could it be the case that P(A ∩ B) = 0.5? Why or why not?
[Hint: For any two sets A and B if
A is a subset of B then P(A) ≤ P(B).]
