If two events are mutuallyexclusive, what is the probability they both occur at the sametime? A. 1.00 B. 0 C. Cannot be determined from the information given D. 0.50 If event A and event B cannot occur at the sametime, then events A and B are considered to be which of thefollowing? A. Collectively exhaustive B. Independent C. Mutually exclusive D. None of the above Determine whether the statement is true or false. If either event A or event B must occur they are called mutually exclusive events. True False Determine whether the statement is true or false. IfP(A or B)equals=1.0, then event A and event B must be mutually exclusive. True

False

According to a survey of households in a particularcountry, the probability that the residents own 2 cars if their annual household income is over$50,000 is80%. Of the householdssurveyed, 60% had incomes over$50,000 and70% had 2 cars. Find the probability that the residents of a household own 2 cars and have an income over$50,000 a year. A. 0.12 B. 0.18 C. 0.22 D. 0.48 If two events areindependent, what is the probability that they bothoccur? A. 0 B. 0.50 C. Cannot be determined from the information given D. 1.00 Suppose that patrons of a restaurant were asked whether they preferred water or whether they preferred soda. The results determined that70% said that they preferredwater, 60% of the patrons weremale, and80% of the males preferred water. Determine whether the statement is true or false. The two events"preferring water" and"preferring soda" are independent. True

False

Determine whether the statement is true or false. To ethically advertise a school lottery scheme to try to raise money for the athleticdepartment, the organizer of the lottery does not need to explicitly specify the probability of each of the prize in the lottery. True

False A lab orders 100 rats a week for each of the 52 weeks in the year for experiments that the lab conducts. Suppose the mean cost of rats used in lab experiments turned out to be$13.00 per week. Interpret this value. A. The rat cost that occurs more often than any other is$13.00. B. The expected or average cost for all weekly rat purchases is$13.00. C. Most of the weeks resulted in rat costs of$13.00. D. The median cost for the distribution of rat costs is$13.00. Determine whether the statement is true or false. The covariance between two investments is equal to the sum of the variances of the investments. True

False

Determine whether the statement is true or false.The variance of the sum of two investments will be equal to the sum of the variances of the two investments when the covariance between the investments is zero.

What type of probability distribution will the consulting firm most likely employ to analyze the insurance claims in the followingproblem?An insurance company has called a consulting firm to determine if the company has an unusually high number of false insurance claims. It is known that the industry proportion for false claims is3%. The consulting firm has decided to randomly and independently sample 100 of thecompany's insurance claims. They believe the number of these 100 that are false will yield the information the company desires.

A.

Poisson distribution

B.

binomial distribution

C.

hypergeometric distribution
