Answer:
0.6026 = 60.26% probability that at least 23 will be fraudulent or will contain errors that are purposely made to cheat the IRS
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].
Approximately 0.0746 of the tax returns filed are fraudulent or will contain errors.
This means that [tex]p = 0.0746[/tex]
Random sample of 318 independent returns
This means that [tex]n = 318[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 318*0.0746 = 23.7228[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{318*0.0746*0.9254} = 4.6854[/tex]
What is the probability that at least 23 will be fraudulent or will contain errors that are purposely made to cheat the IRS?
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 23 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 22.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 22.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{22.5 - 23.7228}{4.6854}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.26[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.26[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3974.
1 - 0.3974 = 0.6026
0.6026 = 60.26% probability that at least 23 will be fraudulent or will contain errors that are purposely made to cheat the IRS
If you pick a card at random from a well shuffled deck, what is the probability that you get an even card or a spade
Answer:
The probability that you get an even card or a spade is P = 0.596
Step-by-step explanation:
In a deck of 52 cards, all the cards have the exact same probability of being drawn.
So, the probability of drawing an even card of a spade, will be equal to the quotient between the number of even cards and spades, and the total number of cards (52).
First, let's found the number of even cards and spades.
There are 13 spades.
For each set, the even cards are:
{2. 4, 6, 8, 10}
(not counting the queen as a "12")
Then for each set, there are 6 even cards.
(there are four sets but we already counted the 6 even cards from the spade set, so we ignore that set)
Then there are 3 sets with 6 even cards each, there are:
3*6 = 18 even cards
So we have:
13 spades + 18 even cards = 31 cards that meet the condition.
The probability is then:
P = 31/52 = 0.596
The probability that you get an even card or a spade is P = 0.596
Given the function
Calculate the following values:
f( - 1) =

f(-1) = -1
For 0 use the 2nd equation:
3(0) + 4 = 0+4 = 4
f(0) = 4
For 2 use the 2nd equation:
3(2) + 4 = 6+4 = 10
f(2) = 10

A hotel manager calculates that 12% of the hotel rooms are booked. If the manager is right, what is the probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 556 rooms would be less than 10%?
Answer:
0.0735 = 7.35% probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 556 rooms would be less than 10%.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
A hotel manager calculates that 12% of the hotel rooms are booked.
This means that [tex]p = 0.12[/tex]
Sample of 556 rooms
This means that [tex]n = 556[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.12[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.12*0.88}{556}} = 0.0138[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 556 rooms would be less than 10%?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 0.1. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.1 - 0.12}{0.0138}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.45[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.45[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0735
0.0735 = 7.35% probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 556 rooms would be less than 10%.

addends in Example B to show that
2.5n +9.9+(-3n) is equal to
2.5n + (-3n) + 9.9?
Answer:
You don't really need to do it, but it helps you keep things more organized and easier to follow. Imagine if you're doing some multi-variable equation,
2a + 5b + 4d + 3c + b + a + 2d
that looks like a mess, it'll be easier to look at if you put all the similar variables next to each others like this:
a + 2a + b + 5b + 3c + 2d + 4d
(a + 2a) + (b + 5b) + 3c + (2d + 4d)
now you can add them up much easier.

Answer:
1/3; geometric
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, your sequence is ...
81, 27, 9, 3, 1, ...
The differences between these numbers vary, but the ratio of each to the one before is a constant:
27/81 = 9/27 = 3/9 = 1/3
The sequence is geometric with a common ratio of 1/3. The next number in the sequence is (1)(1/3) = 1/3.

What is Graph?Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.
A translation T(-3, -8) follows the rule:
A translation is a movement of the graph either horizontally parallel to the -axis or vertically parallel to the -axis.
(x, y)--->(x-3, y-8)
From the diagram you can see that point B has coordinates (1,2).
(1, 2)--->(1-3, 2-8)
(1, 2)--->(-2, -6)
According to the previous rule this point will transform in point B' with coordinates (-2,-6),
Hence, the coordinates of point B after translation are (-2, -6).

There is a bag filled with 3 blue and 5 red marbles.
A marble is taken at random from the bag, the colour is noted and then it is not replaced.
Another marble is taken at random.
What is the probability of getting 2 of the same colour?
JUST NEED THE ANSWER IN A FRACTION PLEASE
[tex]\frac{13}{28}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:Given:
Blue marbles: 3
Reb marbles: 5
Total marbles: 8
Two marbles are selected at random, one after the other with replacement.
Getting the same colour of marbles from the selection means the two marbles are both red or both blue.
(a) Probability of getting 2 marbles being red in colour
i. Probability of picking a red at the first selection:
Number of red marbles ÷ Total number of marbles
=> 5 ÷ 8 = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
ii. Probability of picking a red at the second selection:
Number of remaining red marbles ÷ Total number of remaining marbles
Since after the first pick, the marble is not replaced, the remaining red marbles is 4 while the total number of remaining marbles is 7
=> 4 ÷ 7 = [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]
iii. The probability of getting both marbles being red is the product of i and ii above. i.e
[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{14}[/tex]
(b) Probability of getting 2 marbles being blue in colour
i. Probability of picking a blue at the first selection:
Number of blue marbles ÷ Total number of marbles
=> 3 ÷ 8 = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
ii. Probability of picking a blue at the second selection:
Number of remaining blue marbles ÷ Total number of remaining marbles
Since after the first pick, the marble is not replaced, the remaining blue marbles is 2 while the total number of remaining marbles is 7
=> 2 ÷ 7 = [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
iii. The probability of getting both marbles being blue is the product of i and ii above. i.e
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{28}[/tex]
(c) Probability of getting 2 marbles of the same colour.
The probability of getting 2 marbles of same colour is the sum of the probability of getting both marbles of red colour and the probability of getting both marbles as blue colour. i.e The sum of a(iii) and b(iii)
[tex]\frac{5}{14}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{3}{28}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{13}{28}[/tex]
The probability of getting 2 of the same colour is [tex]\frac{13}{28}[/tex]

Given
[tex]x: 97\ 178\ 129\ 90\ 75\ 94\ 116\ 100\ 85[/tex]
Solving (a): The sample mean
This is calculated using:
[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\bar x = \frac{97+ 178+ 129+ 90+ 75+ 94+ 116+ 100+ 85}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x = \frac{964}{9}[/tex]
[tex]\bar x = 107.11[/tex]
Solving (b): The sample standard deviation
This is calculated as:
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n-1}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{\frac{(97 - 107.11)^2 +.............+ (85- 107.11)^2 }{9-1}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{\frac{7720.8889}{8}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = \sqrt{965.1111125}[/tex]

SCALCET8 3.9.015. A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along a straight path. How fast is the tip of his shadow moving when he is 35 ft from the pole
Answer:
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Height of pole [tex]H_p=15[/tex]
Height of man [tex]h_m=6ft[/tex]
Speed of Man [tex]\triangle a =4ft/s[/tex]
Distance from pole [tex]d=35ft[/tex]
Let
Distance from pole to man=a
Distance from man to shadow =b
Therefore
[tex]\frac{a+b}{15}=\frac{b}{6}[/tex]
[tex]6a+6b=15y[/tex]
[tex]2a=3b[/tex]
Generally the equation for change in velocity is mathematically given by
[tex]2(\triangle a)=3(\triangle b )[/tex]
[tex]2*4=3(\triangle b)[/tex]
[tex]\triangle a=\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Since
The speed of the shadow is given as
[tex]X=\triangle b+\triangle a[/tex]
[tex]X=4+8/3[/tex]

At noon, ship A is 150 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 30 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km/h. How fast is the distance between the ships changing at 4:00 PM?
Answer:
At 4:00 PM the distance between the two ships is 104.40 kilometers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that at noon, ship A is 150 km west of ship B, and ship A is sailing east at 30 km / h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km / h, to determine how fast is the distance between the ships changing at 4:00 PM the following calculation must be performed:
150 - (30 x 4) = 150 - 120 = 30
0 + (25 x 4) = 0 + 100 = 100
30 ^ 2 + 100 ^ 2 = X ^ 2
√ (900 + 10,000) = X
√10,900 = X
104.40 = X
Therefore, at 4:00 PM the distance between the two ships is 104.40 kilometers.

C. Yes, because the central angles are the same.
D. Yes, because they are both minor arcs.
By
Answer:
A. No, because the arcs do not have the same measure.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two arcs can be said to be congruent when the length measure of the two arcs are the same and not necessarily the degree measure. This implies that two arcs can have the same degree measure measure but their length may not be the same.
If two arcs have the same measure in one circle, therefore we can say they are congruent or if they have the same measure in congruent circles respectively, they are congruent.
In the two circles given above, although we are not told if both circles are congruent, however, since both arcs have different degree measure, both arcs cannot be congruent.
