(adapted from ross, 4.60) suppose that the number of times that vampire bill gets attacked by hep v in a given year is a poisson random variable with parameter λ = 5. now, he discovered a new drug (based on large quantities of vitamin c) that has just been marketed to protect from hep v. it claims to reduce the poisson parameter to λ = 3 for 75% of the population. for the rest of the population, the drug has no appreciable effect on hep v. if bill tries the drug for a year and only had 2 hep v attacks in that time, how likely is it that the drug was beneficial for him?

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
