[2-07] If an aircraft is present in a certain area, a radar correctly registers its presence with probability 0.99. If it is not present, the radar
falsely registers an aircraft presence with probability 0.10. We assume that an aircraft is present with probability 0.05. What is the probability
of false alarm (a false indication of aircraft presence), and the probability of missed detecation (nothing registers, even though an aircraft is
present)?

Select one:
The probability of false alarm is 0.095 and the probability of missed detecation is 0.0005

The probability of false alarm is 0.0005 and the probability of missed detecation is 0.095

The probability of false alarm is 0.095 and the probability of missed detecation is 0.005 

The probability of false alarm is 0.075 and the probability of missed detecation is 0.0005

The correct answer is: The probability of false alarm is 0.095 and the probability of missed detecation is 0.0005

[5-09] Two different box-filling machines are used to fill cereal boxes on an assembly line. The critical measurement influenced by these
machines is the weight of the product in the boxes. Engineers are quite certain that the variance of the weight of product is 1 ounce. Both of
two means are the same. Experiments are conducted using both machines with sample sizes of 36 each. Engineers are surprised that the two
sample averages for the filling machines are so different. Find the probability that the difference of two sample means is greater than 0.2
