A committee of 3 is to be selected randomly from a group of 3 men and 2 women.
Let X represent the number of women on the committee. Find the probability
distribution of X.

Answers

Answer 1

Total number of ways to select 3 people from the 5 total: 5!/(3! (5 - 3)!) = 10

• Number of ways of picking 0 women:

[tex]\dbinom20\times\dbinom33 = 1\times1 = 1[/tex]

• Number of ways of picking 1 woman:

[tex]\dbinom21\times\dbinom32 = 2\times3 = 6[/tex]

• Number of ways of picking 2 women:

[tex]\dbinom22\times\dbinom31 = 1\times3 = 3[/tex]

• Number of ways of picking 3 women: 0, since there are only 2 to choose from

Then X has the probability mass function

[tex]P(X=x) = \begin{cases}\frac1{10}&\text{if x=0}\\\frac6{10}=\frac35&\text{if }x=1\\\frac3{10}&\text{if }x=2\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

_____

Additional comment

This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

The value of a car will “depreciate” over time. For example, a car that was worth $24 000 when it was new, is being sold for $13 500 three years later. Determine the annual depreciation rate on this car. Express your final answer as a percent, rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:

13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000

13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000

X = 21.14%

Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Answer:

  33.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.

  1.40 × purchase price = £42

  purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30

The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...

  £30 × 40% = £12

The purchase price of the skirt is ...

  total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27

The profit on the skirt is ...

  total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9

Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...

  skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%

The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.

Answers

Answer:

4*12*2

Step-by-step explanation:

it will be the right answer

Answer:

There are 6 boys in group.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of arrangement of 4 boys = 12 times the number of arrangement of 2 boys.

So, Let the number of boys in the group be 'x'.

So, Number of boys in the group will be

\begin{gathered}x=\frac{12\times 2}{4}\\\\x=\frac{24}{4}\\\\x=6\end{gathered}

x=

12×2

x=

x=6

Hence, there are 6 boys in the group.

A set of solar batteries is used in a research satellite. The satellite can run on only one battery, but it runs best if more than one battery is used. The variance σ2 of lifetimes of these batteries affects the useful lifetime of the satellite before it goes dead. If the variance is too small, all the batteries will tend to die at once. Why? If the variance is too large, the batteries are simply not dependable. Why? Engineers have determined that a variance of σ2 = 23 months (squared) is most desirable for these batteries. A random sample of 30 batteries gave a sample variance of 16.3 months (squared). Using a 0.05 level of significance, test the claim that σ2 = 23 against the claim that σ2 is different from 23.

Hence, we reject H_0 as There  is sufficient evidence to show that population variance is not 23

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Significance Level [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 23[/tex]

Generally the equation for Chi distribution t is mathematically given by

Answers

Answer:

(a) 129600 J

(b) 81000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.

Force, F = 500 N

distance, d = 324 m

(a) friction force, f = 100 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) x d

W = (500 - 100) x 324

W = 129600 J

(b) Friction, f = 250 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) d

W = (500 - 250) x 324

W = 81000 J

(2/3)x-1=27/8,find x

Answers

Answer:

x = 105/16

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x - 1 = 27/8

Add 1 to each side

2/3x - 1+1 = 27/8+1

2/3x = 27/8 + 8/8

2/3x = 35/8

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2 * 2/3x = 35/8 *3/2

x = 105/16

Answer:

  A)  (2, ∞) . . . . or C) (-∞, 0) ∪ (2, ∞) if you don't think about it

Step-by-step explanation:

We want ...

  C(x)/x < 100

  (20x +160)/x < 100

  20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left

  160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20

  160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0

  x > 2 . . . . . . simplify

In interval notation this is (2, ∞).   matches choice A

__

Technically (mathematically), we also have ...

  160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0

which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).

If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.

_____

Comment on the solution

Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.

b. direction of the relationship between two variables.
c. strength of the relationship between two variables.
d. curvilinear relationship between two variables.

Answer:

strength of the relationship between two variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pearson r correlation Coefficient used to measure the relationship or association between two variables. The correlation Coefficient, R ranges between - 1 and 1. As it provides information on both the strength and type of the relationship. The type of relationship could be positive or negative.

The absolute size of r measures Tha strength of the relationship as it ignores the sign. As the Pearson r value moves closer to 1, the higher the strength of the relationship.


There are 84 students in a speech contest. Yesterday, 1/4 of them gave their speeches. Today, 3/7 of the remaining students gave their speeches. How many students still haven't given their speeches?

Answers

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students un the contest = 84

Number of students who gave their speech yesterday:-

[tex] \frac{1}{4} \: of \: total \\ = \frac{1}{4} \times 84 \\ = 21[/tex]

so 21 students gave their speech yesterday

remaining students = 84 - 21

= 63

Number of students who gave their speech today:-

[tex] \frac{3}{7} \: of \: remaining \\ = \frac{3}{7} \times 63 \\ = 27[/tex]

Number of students who have given their speech:-

= 21 + 27

= 48

Number of students who still haven't given their speech :-

= total - 48

= 84 - 48

= 36

Answer: 27 students
First turn 1/4 and 3/7 into common denominators and add; 7/28+12/28=19/28

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right angled ; we can solve for x using Pythagoras :

x = hypotenus ; hence ;

x² = opposite² + adjacent²

x² = 15² + 8²

x² = 225 + 64

x² = 289

x = √289

x = 17

Using Trigonometry :

Sin D = side opposite D / hypotenus = 8/17

Cos D = side Adjacent D / hypotenus = 15 / 17

Tan D = side opposite D / Adjacent side = 8/15

Sin F = side opposite F / hypotenus = 15/17

Cos F = side Adjacent F / hypotenus = 8 / 17

Tan F = side opposite F / Adjacent side = 15/8

Required

The factored form

Solving (a): (5x – 6y)^4

Expand using pascal triangle;

Exponent 4 is represented as: 1 4 6 4 1. So, we have:

[tex](5x - 6y)^4 = 1 * (5x)^4 + 4 * (5x)^3 * (-6y) + 6 * (5x)^2 * (-6y)^2 + 4 * (5x) * (-6y)^3 + 1 * (-6y)^4[/tex]

Remove brackets

[tex](5x - 6y)^4 = 625x^4 - 3000x^3y + 5400x^2y^2 - 4320xy^3 + 1296y^4[/tex]

Hence, (a) is correct
