Quiz 2

The document contains three parts that provide probability questions and calculations: Part 1 asks for the probability that a randomly selected striped shirt is medium size and the probability that the next shirt sold is large and plaid. Part 2 gives visit percentages to a timeshare and asks for the probability that a randomly selected visitor has made a purchase. Part 3 provides the cumulative distribution function of a random variable X and asks for the probability of X falling within or exceeding certain values.

20% of all visitors to a timeshare complex select a day visit, 50% choose a one-night visit,
30% of one-night visitors make a purchase, and 20% of those visiting for two nights decide

The cdf of X is as follows:

a) what is P(3 X 6) ?
P(3<=X<=6)=F(6)-F(3-)=F(6)-F(1)=0.6-0.3=0.3

b) what is P(4 X)?

P(4<=X)=1-P(X<4)=1-F(4-)=1-F(3)=0.6
