A major traffic problem in the Greater Cincinnati area involves traffic attempting to cross the Ohio River from Cincinnati to Kentucky using Interstate 75. Let us assume that the probability of no traffic delay in one period, given no traffic delay in the preceding period, is 0.85 and that the probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period, is 0.75. Traffic is classified as having either a delay or a no-delay state, and the period considered is 30 minutes.
a. Assume that you are a motorist entering the traffic system and receive a radio report of a traffic delay. What is the probability that for the next 60 minutes (two time periods) the system will be in the delay state? Note that this result is the probability of being in the delay state for two consecutive periods. If required, round your answer to three decimal places.
b. What is the probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state? If required, round your answers to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 0.563 = 56.3% probability that for the next 60 minutes (two time periods) the system will be in the delay state.

b. 0.625 = 62.5% probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

The probability of finding a traffic delay in one period, given a delay in the preceding period, is 0.75.

The system currently is in traffic delay, so for the next time period, 0.75 probability of a traffic delay. If the next period is in a traffic delay, the following period will also have a 0.75 probability of a traffic delay. So

0.75*0.75 = 0.563

0.563 = 56.3% probability that for the next 60 minutes (two time periods) the system will be in the delay state.

b. What is the probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state? If required, round your answers to three decimal places.

If it doesn't have a delay, 85% probability of continuing without a delay.

If it has a delay, 75% probability of continuing with a delay.

So, for the long run:

x: current state

85% probability of no delay if x is in no delay, 100 - 75 = 25% if x is in delay(1-x). So

[tex]0.85x + 0.25(1 - x) = x[/tex]

[tex]0.6x + 0.25 = x[/tex]

[tex]0.4x = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{0.25}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.625[/tex]

0.625 = 62.5% probability that in the long run the traffic will not be in the delay state

Answers

Answer:

Quantity = 5 grapes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Quantity of grapes = 20

Cost = 48

To find the cost of each grape;

Cost of each grape = total cost/quantity

Cost of each grape = 48/20

Cost of each grape = $2.4

Now, to find how many grapes $12 can buy;

Quantity = total cost/cost of each grapes

Quantity = 12/2.4

Quantity = 5 grapes

Therefore, $12 can buy 5 grapes.

It has been reported that 8.7% of U.S. households do not own a vehicle, with 33.1% owning 1 vehicle, 38.1% owning 2 vehicles, and 20.1% owning 3 or more vehicles. The data for a random sample of 100 households in a resort community are summarized in the frequency distribution below. At the 0.05 level of significance, can we reject the possibility that the vehicle-ownership distribution in this community differs from that of the nation as a whole?
Number of Vehicles Owned Number of Households 0 20 1 35 2 23 3 or more 22 =100

Answers

Answer:

Here, the test statistics ( 20.951 ) is greater than the critical value ( 7.815 )

Therefore, we reject H₀ at 0.05 level of significance.

Hence, there is significant evidence to support the claim that In this community, vehicle ownership distribution is NOT like that of all U.S household

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Number of vehicle owned                 Number of households

0                                                             20

1                                                              35

2                                                             23

3 or more                                               22

Total ( n )                                               100

so

Null hypothesis           H₀ : In this community, vehicle ownership distribution is like that of all U.S household

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ : In this community, vehicle ownership distribution is NOT like that of all U.S household

Also given that, ∝ = 0.05

Now, we compute the test statistics;

x² = ∑[ ( O[tex]_i[/tex] - E[tex]_i[/tex] ) / E[tex]_i[/tex] ]

where E[tex]_i[/tex] is expected frequency and O[tex]_i[/tex] is observed frequency.

so we make our table for chi square test statistics

No. of                 O[tex]_i[/tex]            P                E[tex]_i[/tex]            (O[tex]_i[/tex] - E[tex]_i[/tex])²             (O[tex]_i[/tex] - E[tex]_i[/tex])²/E[tex]_i[/tex]

Vehicle                                              (n×P)

owned

0                        20         0.087          8.7            127.69                 14.677

1                         35         0.331           33.1            3.61                     0.109

2                        23         0.381           38.1           228.01                 5.985

3 or more          22         0.201          20.1           3.61                      0.180

Total                  100                           100                                        20.951

hence, x² = 20.951

Now, degree of freedom df = k - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

From Chi-Square critical value table; ( right tailed test ) for ∝ = 0.05

[tex]x_{0.05, 3[/tex] = 7.815

Decision Rule

Reject H₀ if x² is greater than xₐ².

Here, the test statistics ( 20.951 ) is greater than the critical value ( 7.815 )

Therefore, we reject H₀ at 0.05 level of significance.

Hence, there is significant evidence to support the claim that In this community, vehicle ownership distribution is NOT like that of all U.S household

You sold 500 shares of Intel for $26.75 per share. Your broker charges you a
commission of $2.75 per thousand dollars of stock bought or sold. How much
money will be credited to your account when you sell? (Remember, commissions
are subtracted out of your transaction.)

Answers

Answer: $13339.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 500 shares of Intel were sold for $26.75 per share, the total amount will be:

= 500 × $26.75

= $13375

Since the broker charges a

commission of $2.75 per thousand dollars of stock bought or sold, the amount charged by the broker on $13375 will be:

= $2.75 × 13

= $35.75

The amount that'll then be credited into ones account will be:

= $13375 - $35.75

= $13339.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides are proportional. The proportions based on a given similarity statement can be written 4 ways.

For these isosceles triangles, the similarity statement could be written either of two ways:

  ΔDEF ~ ΔABC  or  ΔDEF ~ ΔCBA

Corresponding sides will depend on the similarity statement you use. Using the first one, they are ...

  DF and AC (short sides)

  DE and AB (long sides)

  EF and BC (long sides)

For each (short side, long side) pair, we can write the proportion 4 ways:

DF/DE = AC/AB  ⇒  DF/9 = 16/18DF/AC = DE/AB  ⇒  DF/16 = 9/18DE/DF = AB/AC  ⇒  9/DF = 18/16 . . . . . matches choice DAC/DF = AB/DE  ⇒  16/DF = 18/9

Using the other pair of long sides, or using the other similarity statement, the numerical proportions are the same as the ones listed above.

A girls' choir is choosing a uniform for their concert. They can pick red, green or

come in gold and black. Assuming all combinations are acceptable, how many
different combinations can the choir pick?

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:   18 different outfit combinations

=============================================================

Explanation:

There are 3 colors to pick for the sweaters (red, green, purple).There are 3 colors for the skirts (tan, white, black)There are 2 colors for the shoes (gold, black)

Multiply out those values mentioned to get the final answer: 3*3*2 = 9*2 = 18.

There are 18 different outfit combos.

---------------

Further explanation (optional section):

Let's say we only worried about the sweaters and shoes, and for now there's only one color for the skirt. We have 3 colors for the sweaters and 2 for the shoes. Imagine a table with 3 rows and 2 columns. Each row is a different color for the sweater and each column is a different color for the shoe. There are 3*2 = 6 cells inside the table. Each cell is a different outfit.

For instance, we could have R = red sweater and G = gold shoe. Then that means RG = red sweater + gold shoe outfit. So we'd have RG as one of the cells of this 6 cell table.

Now imagine that we laid out a table that is 6 by 3. The 6 is from the 6 outfits calculated earlier, and the 3 is now accounting for the colors of the skirts. We'd then have 6*3 = 18 combos total. Again, each cell inside the table represents a different outfit combo.

without peeking into it, find the probability of getting a green or red candy.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red) = 0.30[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]White = 40[/tex]

[tex]Green = 24[/tex]

[tex]Red = 12[/tex]

[tex]Yellow = 24[/tex]

[tex]Blue = 20[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red)[/tex]

The total numbe of candy is:

[tex]Total = 40 + 24 + 12 + 24 + 20[/tex]

[tex]Total = 120[/tex]

This probability is calculated as:

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red) = P(Green) + P(Red)[/tex]

For each, we have:

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{Green}{Total} + \frac{Red}{Total}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{Green+Red}{Total}[/tex]

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{24+12}{120}[/tex]

[tex]P(Green\ or\ Red) = \frac{36}{120}[/tex]
