For the past 102 years, a certain state suffered 25 direct hits from major (category 3 to 5) hurricanes. Assume that this was typical and the number of hits per year follows a Poisson distribution. Complete parts (a) through (d). (a) What is the probability that the state will not be hit by any major hurricanes in a single year? The probability is nothing. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (b) What is the probability that the state will...

The probability that a certain state will be hit by a major tornado (category F4 or F5) in any single year is Complete parts (a) through (d) below a. What is the probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row? (Simplify your answer. Round to five decimal places as needed.) b. What is the probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado in three consecutive yours? (Simplify your answer Round to...

Suppose that of all registered voters in a certain state favor banning the release of information from ect polls in presidential elections until after the poils in that state dose. A random sample of 25 registered voters is to be selected. Let x-number of registered voters in this random sample who favor the ban. (Use Table 9 in Appendix A. Round your answers to three decimal places) (a) What is the probability that more than 20 voters favor the ban?...

4. A country is subject to natural hazards such as floods, earthquakes, and tornadoes. Supposé earthquakes occur according to a Poisson process with a mean rate of 1 in 10 years; tornado occurrences are also Poisson-distributed with a mean rate of 0.3 per year. There can be either one or no flood each year; hence the occurrence of a flood each year follows a Bernoulli sequence, and the mean returm period of floods is 5 years. Assume floods, earthquakes, and...
