A certain virus infects one in every 400 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 80% of the time if the person has the virus and 10% of the time if the person does not have the virus. (This 10% result is called a false positive.) Let A be the event "the person is infected" and B be the event "the person tests positive". (a) Using Bayes’ Theorem, when a person tests positive, determine the probability that the person is infected.
(b) Using Bayes’ Theorem, when a person tests negative, determine the probability that the person is not infected.

The weibull distribution is widely used in statistical problems relating to aging of solid insulating materials subjected to aging and stress. use this distribution as a model for time (in hours) to failure of solid insulating specimens subjected to ac voltage. the values of the parameters depend on the voltage and temperature; suppose α = 2.5 and β = 190. (a) what is the probability that a specimen's lifetime is at most 250? less than 250? more than 300? (round your answers to four decimal places.) at most 250 less than 250 more than 300 (b) what is the probability that a specimen's lifetime is between 100 and 250? (round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) what value is such that exactly 50% of all specimens have lifetimes exceeding that value? (round your answer to three decimal places.) hr
