A student majoring in accounting is trying to decide on the number of firms to which he should apply. Given his work experience and grades, he can expect to receive a job offer from 70% of the firms to which he applies. The student decides to apply to only four firms.
(a) What is the probability that he receives no job offer?
(b) How many job offers he expects to get?
(c) What is the probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer?
(d) What assumptions do you need to make to find the probabilities? To increase the chance of securing more job offers, the student decides to apply to as many companies as possible, he sent out 60 applications to all different accounting firms.
(e) What is the probability of him securing more than 3 offers?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.0081 = 0.81% probability that he receives no job offer

b) He expects to get 2.8 job offers.

c) 0.0837 = 8.37% probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer.

d) Each job must be independent of other jobs. Additionaly, if [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the normal approximation to the binomial distribution can be used.

e) 0.2401 = 24.01% probability of him securing more than 3 offers.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each application, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he gets an offer, or he does not. The probability of getting an offer for a job is independent of any other job, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

He can expect to receive a job offer from 70% of the firms to which he applies.

This means that [tex]p = 0.7[/tex]

The student decides to apply to only four firms.

This means that [tex]n = 4[/tex]

(a) What is the probability that he receives no job offer?

This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.7)^{0}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.0081[/tex]

0.0081 = 0.81% probability that he receives no job offer.

(b) How many job offers he expects to get?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]E(X) = 4(0.7) = 2.8[/tex]

He expects to get 2.8 job offers.

(c) What is the probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer?

Less than 2 offers, which is:

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.7)^{0}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.0081[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.7)^{1}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.0756[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0081 + 0.0756 = 0.0837[/tex]

0.0837 = 8.37% probability that more than half of the firms he applied do not make him any offer.

(d) What assumptions do you need to make to find the probabilities? To increase the chance of securing more job offers, the student decides to apply to as many companies as possible, he sent out 60 applications to all different accounting firms.

Each job must be independent of other jobs. Additionaly, if [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], the normal approximation to the binomial distribution can be used.

(e) What is the probability of him securing more than 3 offers?

Between 4 and n, since n is 4, 4 offers, so:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.7)^{4}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.2401[/tex]

0.2401 = 24.01% probability of him securing more than 3 offers.

b) Use Greens theorem to find∫x^2 ydx-xy^2 dy where ‘C’ is the circle x2 + y2 = 4 going counter clock wise.​

Answers

It looks like the integral you want to find is

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C x^2y\,\mathrm dx - xy^2\,\mathrm dy[/tex]

where C is the circle x ² + y ² = 4. By Green's theorem, the line integral is equivalent to a double integral over the disk x ² + y ² ≤ 4, namely

[tex]\displaystyle \iint\limits_{x^2+y^2\le4}\frac{\partial(-xy^2)}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial(x^2y)}{\partial y}\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy = -\iint\limits_{x^2+y^2\le4}(x^2+y^2)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy[/tex]

To compute the remaining integral, convert to polar coordinates. We take

x = r cos(t )

y = r sin(t )

x ² + y ² = r ²

dx dy = r dr dt

Then

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C x^2y\,\mathrm dx - xy^2\,\mathrm dy = -\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^2 r^3\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm dt \\\\ = -2\pi\int_0^2 r^3\,\mathrm dr \\\\ = -\frac\pi2 r^4\bigg|_{r=0}^{r=2} \\\\ = \boxed{-8\pi}[/tex]

Amanda rented a bike from Ted's Bikes.
It costs $9 for the helmet plus $5.25 per hour.
If Amanda paid about $43.13, how many hours did she rent the bike?

Let h = the number of hours she rented the bike. Write the equation you would use to solve this problem.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]43.13 = 5.25h + 9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this by making an equation.

$9 for the helmet, and $5.25 per hour.

h will stand for hours, C will stand for Amanda's cost.

[tex]C = 5.25h + 9[/tex]

Now, substitute in what we learned from the problem.

[tex]43.13 = 5.25h + 9[/tex]

This is an equation you can use to solve for the hours.

Answer:

Hence the answer is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

If event A is taking 15 or more minutes to urge to figure tomorrow and event B is taking but a quarter-hour to urge to figure tomorrow, then events A and B must be complimentary events. this is often because the occurring of 1 is going to be precisely the opposite of the occurring of the opposite event and that they cannot occur simultaneously. In other words, events A and B are mutually exclusive and exhaustive.

Use the table above for the z-score, and be sure to round up to the nearest integer.

Answers

Answer:  14

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

Explanation:

At 95% confidence, the z critical value is roughly z = 1.960

The population standard deviation is given to be sigma = 3.7

The error is E = 2 since we want to be within 2 inches of the population mean mu

The min sample size needed is:

n = (z*sigma/E)^2

n = (1.960*3.7/2)^2

n = 13.147876

n = 14

We always round up to the nearest whole number to ensure that we clear the hurdle (otherwise, the sample is too small). It doesn't matter that we're closer to 13 than to 14.

Additional comment

When a figure only looks like itself after a full rotation of 360°, it is said to have rotational symmetry of degree 1. All of the figures here will return to their original appearance after one 360° rotation. So, we assume the intent of the question is to identify figures with a rotational symmetry of degree greater than 1.

If a seed is planted, it has a 90% chance of growing into a healthy plant.

If 6 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 2 don't grow?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{19,683}{200,000}\text{ or }\approx 9.84\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For each planted seed, there is a 90% chance that it grows into a healthy plant, which means that there is a [tex]100\%-90\%=10\%[/tex] chance it does not grow into a healthy plant.

Since we are planting 6 seeds, we want to choose 2 that do not grow and 4 that do grow:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{10}\cdot \frac{1}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}[/tex]

However, this is only one case that meets the conditions. We can choose any 2 out of the 6 seeds to be the ones that don't grow into a healthy plant, not just the first and second ones. Therefore, we need to multiply this by number of ways we can choose 2 things from 6 (6 choose 2):

[tex]\displaystyle \binom{6}{2}=\frac{6\cdot 5}{2!}=\frac{30}{2}=15[/tex]

Therefore, we have:

[tex]\displaystyle\\P(\text{exactly 2 don't grow})=\frac{1}{10}\cdot \frac{1}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \binom{6}{2},\\\\P(\text{exactly 2 don't grow})=\frac{1}{10}\cdot \frac{1}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot \frac{9}{10}\cdot 15,\\\\P(\text{exactly 2 don't grow})=\boxed{\frac{19,683}{200,000}}\approx 9.84\%[/tex]

Answer:

[tex] {?}^{?} However, this is only one case that meets the conditions. We can choose any 2 out of the 6 seeds to be the ones that don't grow into a healthy plant, not just the first and second ones. Therefore, we need to multiply this by number of ways we can choose 2 things from 6 (6 choose 2):

Shaun is planting trees along his driveway, and he has 66 redwoods and 66 pine trees to plant in one row. What is the probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 66 redwoods are next to each other and all 66 pine trees are next to each other

Answers

Answer:

0.0022 = 0.22% probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The trees are arranged, so the arrangements formula is used to solve this question. Also, a probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Arrangements formula:

The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by:

[tex]A_n = n![/tex]

Desired outcomes:

Two cases:

6 redwoods(6! ways) then the 6 pine trees(6! ways)

6 pine trees(6! ways) then the 6 redwoods(6! ways)

So

[tex]D = 2*6!*6![/tex]

Total outcomes:

12 trees, so:

[tex]D = 12![/tex]

What is the probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other?

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{2*6!*6!}{12!} = 0.0022[/tex]

0.0022 = 0.22% probability that he randomly plants the trees so that all 6 redwoods are next to each other and all 6 pine trees are next to each other.
