(13) For 10 observations on price ( x ) and supply ( y ) , the following data were obtained (in appropriate units): x

= 130 , y = 220 , x 2 = 2288 , y 2 = 5506 , and

xy = 3467
Obtain the two lines of regression and estimate the supply when the price is 16 units. (14) A panel of two judges, A and B , graded seven T.V. serial performances by awarding marks independently as shown in the following table: Performance Marks by A Marks by B 1 46 40 2 42 38 3 44 36 4 40 35 5 43 39 6 41 37 7 45 41

The eighth T.V. performance which judge B could not attend was awarded 37 marks by judge A . If judge B had also been present, how many marks would be expected to have been awarded by him to the eighth T.V. performance? Use regression analysis to answer this question. (15) Two variables x and y have zero means, the same variance 2 and zero correlation, u = x cos + y sin , and v = x sin y cos show that: have the same variance 2 and zero correlation. (16) The odds that a book will be favorably reviewed by three independent critics are 5 to 2, 4 to 3 and 3 to 4 respectively. What is the probability that, of the three reviews, a majority will be favorable? (17) Cards are dealt one by one from a well-shuffled pack until an ace appears. Show that the probability that exactly n cards are dealt before the first ace appears is:

(18) The contents of urns I , II and III are as follows: 1 white, 2 black and 3 red balls, 2 white, 1 black and 1 red balls, and 4 white, 5 black and 3 red balls. One urn is chosen at random and two balls are drawn. They happen to be white and red. r What is the probability that they come from the urns I , II o III ? (19) If 10% of bolts produced by a machine are defective. Determine the probability that out of 10 bolts, chosen at random (i) 1 (ii) none (iii) at most 2 bolts will be defective. (20) If the probability of hitting a target is 10% and 10 shots are fired independently; what is the probability that the target will be hit at least once? (21) Assuming that half the population of a town consumes chocolates and 100 investigators each take 10 individuals to see whether they are consumers.

(27) In a sample of 600 men from a large city, 400 are found to be smokers. In one of 900 from another city, 450 are smokers.
