In a study by peter d. hart research associates for the nasdaq stock market, it was determined that 20% of all stock investors are retired people. in addition, 40% of all u. s. adults invest in mutual funds. suppose a random sample of 25 stock investors is taken. a. what is the probability that exactly six are retired people? b. what is the probability that 9 or more are retired people? c. how many retired people would you expect to find in a random sample of 25 stock investors? d. suppose a random sample of 20 u. s. adults is taken. what is the probability that exactly seven adults invested in mutual funds? e. suppose a random sample of 20 u. s. adults is taken. what is the probability that fewer than seven adults invested in mutual funds? f. suppose a random sample of 20 u. s. adults is taken. what is the probability that none of the adults invested in mutual funds? g. suppose a random sample of 20 u. s. adults is taken. what is the probability that 11 or more adults invested in mutual funds? h. for parts e–g, what exact number of adults would produce the highest probability? how does this compare to the expected number?

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.
