Netflix Inc. is a large and extraordinarily popular streaming media and video-on-demand provider accessible to customers in almost every country in the world. Part of the reason for its success has been its adoption of business analytics, the use of statistical analysis techniques to extract information from data that can be used in strategic planning. Key components of the Netflix supply chain are the "content partners," studios or production companies that provide the audio and video for media as well as supporting content such as subtitles and closed captioning (the company calls these elements, collectively, "assets.") A recent issue facing the company was inconsistent quality in the assets it was receiving from some of its content partners. Using a technique called "predictive quality control," Netflix was able to build a statistical model that could predict the probability of a defect in an asset based on several factors, such as the age and the genre of the media it was associated with. Let D be the event {an asset is defective}, and suppose the model predicts that P(D) = 0.734. What is P(Dc), the complement of the event D, to three decimal places?

Aaron, Danielle, Sam, Travis, and Raymond work in a marketing firm. Two of them will have an opportunity to go to a prestigious conference in Italy, all expenses paid. Normally, the two top-performing employees would be rewarded with this exciting opportunity, but this year, each of them has performed so well that their team leader cannot decide which two should go. To ensure that the decision is made fairly, each of the five employees is asked to write down the first letter of his or her first name on a slip of paper and place it in a hat (thus, A = Aaron, D = Danielle, etc.) The team leader will draw out two names randomly, and the persons drawn will go to the conference. An outcome of the drawing will be indicated by the two letters of the first names of the persons drawn. For example, if Aaron and Sam are drawn, the outcome "AS" will have occurred. For simplicity, since the order in which the names are drawn does not matter (e.g., AS and SA both indicate that Sam and Aaron were chosen), only the unique letter pairs will be considered as the outcomes for this problem. Which of the following represents the sample space for the experiment?

S = {AD, AS, AT, AR, DS, DT, DR, ST, SR, TR}

website for Umbrella Bank allows customers to perform many routine banking tasks such as paying bills, transferring money, and tracking purchases. The site requires users to sign in with a username and password. For security reasons, after 5 failed sign-in attempts over a 15-minute span, the bank locks the customer's online account and requires that he or she contact the bank to obtain a new password. Joe is a customer of Umbrella Bank who can't remember his password exactly. The random experiment is his attempt to sign in to his online account over the next 15 minutes before being locked out of his account. Once he logs in successfully one time, the experiment ends. Let F indicate a failed sign-in attempt and L indicate a successful sign-in attempt. What is the sample space in terms of F and L?

A fast-food company is interested in examining whether reducing the number of menu items will increase revenue. Before introducing the new menu nationwide, the company wants to test it in a sample of markets. Using the database that contains information on the locations of all of its franchisees' stores, the company randomly selects a collection of 50 stores in major markets in the U.S. Of the 50, half were given the new menu and half were told to continue using the old menu. Sales from the stores in both groups were tracked for six weeks. After analyzing the data, management concluded, with a high degree of confidence, that using the new menu nationwide would increase revenue by an average of 20 to 30 percent, This conclusion is an example of a (an)

Think of observing a large number of independent "trials," or repeats, of some random experiment and let E be some event of interest. For example, the experiment could represent flipping a (possibly weighted) coin or rolling a (possibly weighted) die thousands of times and looking for "heads" or "6" to come up (respectively), or betting on a particular number in a game of roulette over and over, or watching a particular stock price over hundreds of days and noting which days the price was up or down, or any other experiment that is repeatable but whose outcome on each trial is random. Match each one of the following statements about the event E to the number that best represents or describes it, in the context of probability theory.

The event E cannot happen (or is impossible). 5.0 The event E is guaranteed to occur (or is certain to occur). 3.1 The event E is very unlikely to occur, but it is possible and will occur occasionally. 2. 0.03 The event E is very likely to occur, but there is a small chance that it won't. 7. 0.99 The event E will occur about as often as it doesn't occur. 4. 0.51 The event E will occur more often than not. 1. 0.75 This number is not a valid probability. 6. 1.09
