Allele frequency is the relative frequency of a certain allele type among a certain population. Suppose that within a certain area, the allele frequency of A, B and O are 0.2, 0.1, and 0.7, respectively. Suppose that when randomly picking up a person, the first allele type is independent of the second allele type regardless of the type. Calculate the following probabilities:
• The probability for this person to have type O blood.
• The probability for this person to have type A blood.
• The probability for this person to have type B blood.
• The probability for this person to have type AB blood.

b. Find the probability that her age will fall between 4747 and 51 years.
c. Find the probability that her age will be less than 35 years.
d. Find the probability that her age will exceed 41 years.

"You are investing $6,000 immediately in a stock that you will keep for 13 years. At the end of 13 years, the stock will be worth $16,813 with a probability of 0.48 and worth $22,785 with a probability of 0.52. When you sell the stock, you will need to pay taxes on the profit earned from selling the stock (i.e., taxes on the difference between the selling and buying prices of the stock). The tax rate will be 8% with a probability of 0.8 or 16% with a probability of 0.2. Your MARR is 4.7% What is the variance of the net present worth from investing in the stock?"

In an introductory statistics class, there are 18 male and 22 female students. Two students are randomly selected (without replacement).
(a) Find the probability that the first is female
(b) Find the probability that the first is female and the second is male.
(c) Find the probability that at least one is female

I know that this question has to use the counting method, but i got confuse with how to start because i have to now find the probability of FIRST being a female, etc. Please provide workings with explanations alongside. Thank you in advance!

In a certain town where all cars are either green or blue., there are 3 times more green cars than
the blue ones. Studies indicate that at a particularly dimly lighted pedestrian crossing at night the probability that a person correctly identifies the color of a green car is 0.68. The probability that they correctly identify the color of a blue car is 0.45. You were just hit by a car at that crossing and believe that the car was green.
i.
Draw a probability
tree representing these breakdowns.
ii. What is the probability that
you were actually hit by a green car?

Identify any unusual events. Explain your reasoning. Choose the correct answer below.
The events in parts A and B are unusual because their probabilities are less than 0.05
None of the events are unusual because all the probabilities are greater than 0.05
The event in part A is unusual because its probability is less than 0.05
The event in part C is unusual because its probability is less than 0.05

Cabin Fever Coffee is a local coffee bar, and is striving for consistent quality in their coffee beverages served to guests. Guests often complain that their beverage is not hot enough (lukewarm) or too hot and thus leave unsatisfied. Management determines that the temperature of their brewed coffee is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 101 degrees and a standard deviation of 6 degrees. Management has also set a temperature of 99 degrees or lower to be “lukewarm” and a temperature of 110 degrees to be too hot.
(Round all probability answers to four decimals)
a) What’s the probability that a customer’s beverage is lukewarm?
b) What’s the probability that a customer’s beverage is too hot?
c) What’s the probability’s the probability a customer leaves the store unsatisfied?
d) Suppose management randomly selects 9 customers from the day. What’s the probability that at least one of them left unsatisfied?
e) From the same random sample of 9 customers in part (d), what’s the probability that at most half of them left satisfied?
f) From the same random sample of 9 customers in part (d), what’s the probability that the average temperature of the sample’s coffee beverages was less than 103 degrees?
g) From the same random sample of 9 customers in part (d), what’s the probability that the average temperature of the sample’s coffee beverages was within management’s acceptable temperature range?

Cabin Fever Coffee is a local coffee bar located in Defiance, Ohio, and is striving for consistent quality in their coffee beverages served to guests. Guests often complain that their beverage is not hot enough (lukewarm) or too hot and thus leave unsatisfied. Management determines that the temperature of their brewed coffee is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 102 degrees and a standard deviation of 5 degrees. Management has also set a temperature of 96 degrees or lower to be “lukewarm” and a temperature of 107 degrees to be too hot.
