Problem 1 An inept statistics professor has a home repair project. With probability 10%, he can buy the necessary equipment at a hardware store and install it properly. This would cost $5. With probability 60%, he won't be able to fix it himself and will have to call a licensed professional. This would cost $205. With probability 30%, attempting to fix it himself will only cause additional damage. This would cost $605. Let X be the amount of money that the project costs. Find E(X) and SD(X).

Problem 7 In a certain assembly plant has three machines that makes its products. Machine 1 makes 30% of the products. From past experience, it is known that 2% of these products are defective. Machine 2 makes 45% of the products. From past experience, 3% of these products are defective. Machine 3 makes 25% of the products. From past experience, 1% of these products are defective. Suppose a randomly chosen product is found to be defective. What is the probability that it was made by the third machine?
