"If something can go wrong, it will go wrong." This funny saying is called Murphy's law. Let's interpret this to mean "If something can go wrong, there is a very high probability that it will eventually go wrong." Suppose we look at the event of having an automobile accident at some time during a day's commute. Let's assume that the probability of having an accident on a given day is 1 in a thousand or 0.001. That is, in your town, one of every thousand cars on a given day is involved in an accident (including little fender-benders). We also assume that having (or not having) an accident on a given day is independent of having (or not having) an accident on any other given day. Suppose you commute 43 weeks per year, 5 days a week, for a total of 215 days each year. In the following parts, write each probability in decimal form rounded to three places.
