Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with n=5 trials and a probability of success of p=0.10. Use a binomial probability table to find the probability that the number of successes x is exactly 3.

Question 1 of 10 2 points different groups of 50 graduates of an engineering school were asked the starting annual salary for their first engineering job after graduation, and the sampling variability was low. if the average salary of one of the groups was $65,000, which of these is least likely to be the average salary of another of the groups? o a. $64,000 o b. $65,000 o c. $67,000 o d. $54,000

Amachine that produces a special type of transistor (a component of computers) has a 2% defective rate. the production is considered a random process where each transistor is independent of the others. (a) what is the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect? (b) what is the probability that the machine produces no defective transistors in a batch of 100? (c) on average, how many transistors would you expect to be produced before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (d) another machine that also produces transistors has a 5% defective rate where each transistor is produced independent of the others. on average how many transistors would you expect to be produced with this machine before the first with a defect? what is the standard deviation? (e) based on your answers to parts (c) and (d), how does increasing the probability of an event a↵ect the mean and standard deviation of the wait time until success?
