Based on the survey results, there is a probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food and a probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room. Moreover, there is a probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons.

Required:
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both (to 2 decimals)?
b. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons (to 2 decimals)?

Answers

Answer 1

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

he Eco Pulse survey from the marketing communications firm Shelton Group asked individuals to indicate things they do that make them feel guilty (Los Angeles Times, August 15, 2012).

Based on the survey results, there is a 0.39 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food and a 0.27 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room.

Moreover, there is a 0.12 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons.

Required:

a. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both (to 2 decimals)?

b. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons (to 2 decimals)?

Answer:

a)

the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both is 0.54

b)

the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons is 0.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

lets A represent person feels guilty about wasting food and B represent leaving the light on when not in room;

probability; feel  guilty about wasting food P(A) = 0.39

probability; feel guilty about leaving light on P(B) = 0.27

probability; feel guilty for both P(A ∩ B ) = 0.12

a)

probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both

p( A ∪ B ) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B )

we substitute

p( A ∪ B ) = 0.39 + 0.27 - 0.12

p( A ∪ B ) = 0.54

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both is 0.54

b)

probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons;

p( A ∪ B )' = 1 - p( A ∪ B )

p( A ∪ B )' = 1 - 0.54

p( A ∪ B )' = 0.46

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons is 0.46

I believe the answer is 88 because the 120 will create a straight angle which is 180. Then you do 180-120=60. This is the measure I the left angle. Now your answer will be 88

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 120 = 60

32 + 60 = 92

180 - 92 = 88

Use the distributive property to simplify 3 + 5c(2 + 6c) completely.​

Answers

Answer:

Distributive property says that:

(A + B)*C = A*C + B*C

Now let's try to use it in our expression:

3 + 5*c*(2 + 6*c)

Here we can take the two terms inside the parentheses as A and B, and the term that multiplies them as C, then distributing we get:

3 + (5*c)*2 + (5*c)*(6*c)

Now remember that the multiplications are associative and commutative, then we can write this as:

3 + (2*5)*c + (5*6)*(c*c)

3 + 10*c + 30*c^2

And we can't simplify it anymore.

5x-2y=9
12x-8y=4

Answers

Answer:

(4,11/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2y=9

12x-8y=4

A quick look will tell us that neither the x- nor the y- coefficient is the same in both equations, so combining the two by addition or subtraction. We can see that 2 is a multiple of 8, since 2 x 4 = 8. We should multiply the first equation by 4.

4(5x-2y=9)

Now we need to decide if we should add or subtract the equations.

20x-8y=36

12x-8y=4

Since we need to have a -8 and a +8 to eliminate the variables, we should subtract them. Change all the signs of the second equation and combine.

20x-8y=36

-12x-8y=4

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

8x=32

Divide both sides by 8 to get the x-value:

[tex]\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{32}{8}[/tex]

x=4

Now that we have our x-value, we need to plug in the y-value.

5x-2y=9

5(4)-2y=9

20-2y=9

-2y=-11

y=11/2

So our solution is (4,11/2)

Let's check our work.

5x-2y=9

5(4)-2(11/2)=9

20-22/2=9

20-11=9

9=9

12x-8y=4

12(4)-8(11/2)=4

48-88/2=4

48-44=4

4=4

Our solution is correct.

Answer:

x=4,y=11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x−2y=9

12x−8y=4

​In order to solve by elimination, coefficients of one of the variables must be the same in both equations so that the variable will cancel out when one equation is subtracted from the other.

5x−2y=9,12x−8y=4

To make 5x and 12x equal, multiply all terms on each side of the first equation by 12 and all terms on each side of the second by 5.

12×5x+12(−2)y=12×9,5×12x+5(−8)y=5×4

Simplify.

60x−24y=108,60x−40y=20

Subtract 60x−40y=20 from 60x−24y=108 by subtracting like terms on each side of the equal sign.

60x−60x−24y+40y=108−20

Add 60x to −60x. Terms 60x and −60x cancel out, leaving an equation with only one variable that can be solved.

−24y+40y=108−20

Add −24y to 40y.

16y=108−20

Add 108 to −20.

16y=88

Divide both sides by 16.

y=11/2

Substitute 11/2 for y in 12x−8y=4. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.

12x−8x11/2=4

Multiply −8 times 11/2.

12x−44=4

Add 44 to both sides of the equation.

12x=48

Divide both sides by 12.

x=4

The system is now solved.

x=4,y=11/2

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day. They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.14 gallons. A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 1.69 gallons and the mean is 15.9 gallons per day. If they are using a 85% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water? Round your answer up to the next integer.

Answers

Answer:

A sample of 179 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.85}{2} = 0.075[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.075 = 0.925[/tex], so Z = 1.44.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 1.69 gallon?

This means that [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{1.69} = 1.3[/tex]

If they are using a 85% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water?

A sample of n is needed, and n is found for M = 0.14. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.14 = 1.44\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.14\sqrt{n} = 1.44*1.3[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 178.8[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample of 179 is needed.

Answers

Answer:

A. 0.42

B. 0.12

C. 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The probability that they make the right decision on the first try

First person = 60%

Second person = 70%

= 60% * 70%

= 0.42

B. Probability that they make wrong decision

= Wrong decision from first person * wrong decision from second person

Wrong decision = 1- right decision

= 1-0.60 * 1-0.70

= 0.40x0.30

= 0.12

3. Probability they delay decision

= 0.60(1-0.60)+0.70(1-0.70)

= 0.60x0.40 + 0.70x0.30

= 0.24+ 0.21

= 0.45

Reflect across the x-axis. Then rotate the shape around point B' 120 degrees clockwise.​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across the x-axis just changes the signs of the y-coordinates. Rotation -120° about B' is difficult to do by hand. The transformation rule for that is ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (x·cos(-120°) +y·sin(-120°), -x·sin(-120°) +y·cos(-120°))

  (x, y) ⇒ ((-(x-3) +(y+2)√3)/2 +3, (-(x-3)√3 -(y+2))/2 -2)

__

It looks like your problem is presented in GeoGebra, which makes reflection and rotation easy.


A garden table and a bench cost $996 combined. The garden table costs $46 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of the bench is $475

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of garden table= x and cost of bench= y

x + y = 996 (eqn 1)

x - y = 46 (eqn 2)

eqn 1 + eqn 2

2x = 1042

2x/2 = 1042/2

x = 521

The cost of the garden table is $521.

Substitute x = 521 into eqn 1

x + y = 996

521 + y = 996

y = 996 - 521

y = 475

The cost of the bench is $475.

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the minimum sample size is shown below:

Given that

Error E = 11

The population standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] =217

Confidence level 1-α = 95%

Now following formula should be used

n > (Zalpha ÷ 2 × sigma ÷ E)^2

As we know that

Zalpha ÷ 2= 1.96

Now the sample size is

n> (1.96 × 202  ÷ 10)^2

What is Slope?

A line's slope is determined by how its y coordinate changes in relation to how its x coordinate changes. y and x are the net changes in the y and x coordinates, respectively. Therefore, it is possible to write the change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate as,

m = Δy/Δx where, m is the slope

Given:

From the data we have (5, 200) and (5,0)

then slope= (200-0) / 5

                = 40

So, Kate is reading 40 pages per hour.
