If bandwidth is the difference between the highest and lowest signals of a transmission, then this means that a signal with the lowest frequency of 10KHz and an upper frequency of 5MHz, has a bandwidth of _____KHz.
If a data signal bit rate is 5kbps, then at Harmonic 1 we would have a value of ______ Hz, at Harmonic 3 we would have a value of _____Hz, and at Harmonic 5 wed would have a value of ____ Hz.

Problem: Selecting Condiments A box of condiments has ten small packages, in which three are ketchup, three are mustard, and four are relish. A sample of three packages is randomly selected (without replacement) from the box.
1. Find the probability distribution for X, the number of
mustard packages in the sample. 2. What are mean and variance of
X?
3. What is the probability that at most one mustard package is
selected?
4. What is the probability that at least one mustard package is
selected?
2
5. What is the probability that X is within one standard deviation from its mean?
6. Now, suppose that you win $25 for each package of ketchup chosen and lose $15 otherwise. Let y denote the total winnings.
(a) Find the probability distribution for y.
(b) Verify that this distribution satisfies the axioms of a
probability distribution.
(c) Calculate the expected loss.

A personnel from the Traffic Engineering Center was assigned to observe a particular intersection. Historical data on the characteristics of vehicles passing thru this intersection revealed the following data:
Probability that a vehicle is a smoke belcher = 0.30
Probability that the vehicle does not have a license plate = 0.002
Probability that the vehicle passing is a truck = 0.10
Average number of vehicles passing per minute = 10
