Answer:
On average, a player should expect to win $15.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value in an event with outcomes:
x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ
Each with probability:
p₁, ..., pₙ
is given by:
Ev = x₁*p₁ + ... +xₙ*pₙ
In this case we have 3 outcomes:
player wins $75 = x₁
player wins $45 = x₂
player does not win = x₃
Let's find the probabilities of these events.
player wins $75)
Here we must have the 3 coins landing on heads, so there is only one possible outcome to win $75
While the total number of outcomes for tossing 3 coins, is the product between the number of outcomes for each individual event (where the individual events are tossing each individual coin, each one with 2 outcomes)
Then the number total of outcomes is:
C = 2*2*2 = 8
Then the probability of winning $75 is the quotient between the number of outcomes to win (only one) and the total number of outcomes (8)
p₁ = 1/8
Win $45:
This happens if the 3 coins land on tails, so is exactly equal to the case above, and the probability is the same:
p₂ = 1/8
Not wining:
Remember that:
p₁ + p₂ + ... + pₙ = 1
Then for this case, we must have:
p₁ + p₂ + p₃ = 1
1/8 + 1/8 + p₃ = 1
p₃ = 1 - 1/8 - 1/8
p₃ = 6/8
Then the expected value will be:
Ev = $75*1/8 + $45*1/8 + $0*6/8 = $15
On average, a player should expect to win $15.
Let x represent the average annual salary of college and university professors (in thousands of dollars) in the United States. For all colleges and universities in the United States, the population variance of x is approximately σ2
= 47.1. However, a random sample of 15 colleges and universities in Kansas showed that x has a sample variance σ2 = 83.2. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance for colleges and universities in Kansas is greater than 47.1. Use the traditional method. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population.
a. Check requirements.
b. Establish H0 and H1 and note the level of significance.
c. Find the sample test statistic.
d. Find Critical Value.
e. Conclude the test and interpret results.
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The hypothesis :
H0 : σ²= 47.1
H1 : σ² > 47.1
α = 5% = 0.05
Population variance, σ² = 47.1
Sample variance, s² = 83.2
Sample size, n = 15
The test statistic = (n-1)*s²/σ²
Test statistic, T = [(15 - 1) * 83.2] ÷ 47.1
Test statistic = T = [(14 * 83.2)] * 47.1
Test statistic = 1164.8 / 47.1
Test statistic = 24.73
The degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 10 = 9
Critical value (0.05, 9) = 16.92 (Chisquare distribution table)
Reject H0 ; If Test statistic > Critical value
Since ; 24.73 > 16.92 ; Reject H0 and conclude that variance is greater.
The weight of an object above the surface of the Earth varies inversely with the square of the
distance from the center of the Earth. If a body weighs 50 pounds when it is 3,960 miles from
Earth's center, what would it weigh if it were 4,015 miles from Earth's center?
Answer:
weight =48.71228786pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]w = \frac{k}{ {d}^{2} } \\ 50 = \frac{k}{ {3960}^{2} } \\ \\ k = 50 \times {3960}^{2} \\ k = 50 \times 15681600 \\ k = 784080000 \\ \\ w = \frac{784080000}{ {d}^{2} } \\ w = \frac{784080000}{16120225} \\ \\ w = 48.71228786 \\ w = 48.7pounds[/tex]
If a body weighs 50 pounds when it is 3,960 miles from Earth's center, it would weigh approximately 48.547 pounds if it were 4,015 miles from Earth's center, according to the inverse square law formula.
We know the inverse square law formula:
W₁ / W₂ = D²₂ / D²₁
Where W₁ is the weight of the body at the initial distance D₁, and W₂ is the weight at the final distance D₂.
So we have,
W₁ = 50
D₁ = 3,960
D₂ = 4015
We know that the body weighs 50 pounds when it is 3,960 miles from Earth's center,
So we can plug in those values as follows:
50 / W₂ = (4,015)²/ (3,960)²
To solve for W₂, we can cross-multiply and simplify as follows:
W₂ = 50 x (3,960)² / (4,015)²
W₂ = 50 x 15,681,600 / 16,120,225
W₂ = 48.547 pounds (rounded to three decimal places)
Therefore, if the body were 4,015 miles from Earth's center, it would weigh approximately 48.547 pounds.

Please help!! The question is the image below VVV
Answers are also images after the picture.
Step-by-step explanation:
When adding two fractions with different bases (bottom numbers), we can use this function:
[tex]\frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ad + cb}{bd}[/tex]
So, to apply this to the given question:
[tex]\frac{x+3}{x-6} +\frac{1}{x-2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(x+3)(x-2)+(1)(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]
From the given answers, we see we don't need to simplify the resulting base number, which makes things a lot easier.
Multiply top using: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd= [tex]\frac{[(x*x) + (x*-2)+(3*x)+(3*-2)]+(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]
Simplify.= [tex]\frac{[x^2 -2x+3x-6]+(x-6)}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]
Remove parentheses.= [tex]\frac{x^2 -2x+3x-6+x-6}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]
Simplify again.= [tex]\frac{x^2 +2x-12}{(x-6)(x-2)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data:
This year :
35, 45, 53, 57, 61, 65, 67, 69, 70, 71, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 77, 80, 81, 82, 83, 87, 90, 93, 95, 99
Mean = ΣX / n = 1825 / 25 = 73
The mode = 71 ( most frequently occurring)
Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term
Median = 73
10 years ago :
51, 55, 56, 59, 65, 67, 68, 69, 69, 74, 75, 76, 77, 77, 79, 79, 79, 86, 87, 89, 90, 91, 91, 95, 98
Mean = ΣX / n = 1902 / 25 = 76.08
The mode = 79 ( most frequently occurring)
Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term
Median = 77
According to the computed statistics, we can conclude that, today is worse than the past as the average score which is almost similar to the median value is higher 10 years ago and the modal score is better 10 years ago as well.

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 409 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 21 bag sample had a mean of 401 grams with a standard deviation of 26. A level of significance of 0.1 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Answer:
The decision rule is to Reject H0 if Z ≤ -1.282
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Population mean; μ = 409 g
Sample mean; x¯ = 401 g
Sample size; n = 21
Standard deviation; s = 26
Let's define the hypotheses;
Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 409 g
Alternative hypothesis; Ha : μ ≠ 409 g
Formula for test statistic is;
z = (x¯ - μ)/(s/√n)
z = (401 - 409)/(26/√21)
z = -1.410
z-value is negative and thus this is a lower tail test.
At significance level of 0.1, the critical value is -1.282.
Thus, the decision rule is;
Reject H0 if Z ≤ -1.282

Assuming that a person going to community college can't afford to go to a four-year college is an example of a) a generalization. b) discrimination. O c) a stereotype. O d) tolerance.
Answer:
a) generalization
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is an example of a generalization. This is because the statement is assumming that all individuals who go to community college are poor. Therefore, this is why they cannot go to a four-year college, and instead go to a community college which is far cheaper. This assumption is being applied to all individuals who attend community college, without any further or more-specific information about each individual, therefore generalizing the entire situation.

8 A test rocket is fired and follows a path described by y = 0.1x(200 – x). The height is y metres above
ground and x is the horizontal distance in metres.
How far does the rocket travel horizontally?
b How high does the rocket reach mid-flight?
Answer:
a) The rocket travels 200 meters horizontally.
b) The height of the rocket mid-flight is of 1000 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Height of the rocket:
The height of the rocket, in meters, after an horizontal distance of x, is given by:
[tex]y = 0.1x(200 - x)[/tex]
a) How far does the rocket travel horizontally?
This is x when [tex]y = 0[/tex]. So
[tex]0.1x(200 - x) = 0[/tex]
Then
[tex]0.1x = 0[/tex]
[tex]x = 0[/tex]
And
[tex]200 - x = 0[/tex]
[tex]x = 200[/tex]
So
The rocket travels 200 meters horizontally.
b How high does the rocket reach mid-flight?
This it the height y when x = 0, so:
[tex]y = 20*100 - 0.1*100^2 = 1000[/tex]
The height of the rocket mid-flight is of 1000 meters.
