Answer:
0.9319 = 93.19% probability that at least 88 out of 153 registered voters will vote in the presidential election.
Step-by-step explanation:
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].
153 voters:
This means that [tex]n = 153[/tex]
Assume the probability that a given registered voter will vote in the presidential election is 63%.
This means that [tex]p = 0.63[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 153(0.63) = 96.39[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{153*0.63*0.37} = 5.97[/tex]
Consider the probability that at least 88 out of 153 registered voters will vote in the presidential election.
Using continuity correction, this is: [tex]P(X \geq 88 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 87.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 87.5.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{87.5 - 96.39}{5.97}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.49[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.49[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0681.
1 - 0.0681 = 0.9319
0.9319 = 93.19% probability that at least 88 out of 153 registered voters will vote in the presidential election.
The numbers of home runs that Barry Bonds hit in the first 18 years of his major league baseball career are listed below. Find the mean and median number of home runs. Round the mean to the nearest whole number. Which measure of central tendency- the mean or the median- best represents the data? Explain your reasoning.
16 25 24 19 33 25 34 46 37
33 42 40 37 34 49 73 46 45
Answer:
Mean = 35.56
Median = 35.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
16 25 24 19 33 25 34 46 37
33 42 40 37 34 49 73 46 45
Reordered data :
16, 19, 24, 25, 25, 33, 33, 34, 34, 37, 37, 40, 42, 45, 46, 46, 49, 73
The mean = ΣX / n
n = sample size ; ΣX = sum of values
The mean = 658 / 18
The mean = 36.56
The Median = 1/2(n+1)th term
1/2(18+1)th term = 1/2(19)th term = 9.5 term
Median = (9th + 10th) / 2 = (34 + 37) / 2 = 35.5
A machining center is in charge of producing 225 parts per day. The parts width. Any parts produced between 250mm and 260mm are considered gless than 250mm must be reworked at an additional cost of $8 per part. 260mm must be reworked at an additional cost of $2.50 per part. The varquantified as a standard deviation of 5.0mm. Measurements on these parhave the ability to set up the machine to achieve whatever mean width value you wish.
Required:
Setup a data table to determine the mean width setting that will minimize expected rework cost ($8 per small part and $2.50 per large part).
A gambler is trying to determine whether or not to make a bet. If he bets and wins, he will profit $2000. If he bets and loses, he has to pay $300. The probability that he wins the bet is 15%. Find the gambler's expected value if he makes the bet.
Answer:
The gambler's expected value if he makes the bet is $45.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value:
15% probability of a profit of $2000.
100 - 15 = 85% probability of having to pay $300, that is, a loss of $300.
The expected value is each outcome multiplied by it's probability, so:
[tex]E = 0.15*2000 - 0.85*300 = 45[/tex]
The gambler's expected value if he makes the bet is $45.

Answer:
∠B= 102°, ∠Y= 32°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
∠A +∠B +∠C= 180° (∠ sum of triangle)
50° +∠B +28°= 180°
∠B +78°= 180°
∠B= 180° -78°
∠B= 102°
∠X= 180° -100° (adj. ∠s on a str. line)
∠X= 80°
∠X +∠Z +∠Y= 180° (∠ sum of traingle)
80° +68° +∠Y= 180°
∠Y +148°= 180°
∠Y= 180° -148°
∠Y= 32°
Alternatively,
∠Z +∠Y= ∠W (ext. ∠ of triangle)
68° +∠Y= 100°
∠Y= 100° -68°
∠Y= 32°
A tumor is injected with 0.3 grams of Iodine-125, which has a decay rate of 1.15% per day. To the nearest day, how long will it take for half of the Iodine-125 to decay?
Answer:
The time required is 60.3 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
initial amount, No = 0.3 g
rate, r = 1.15 % per day = 0.0115 per day
final amount, N = 0.15 g
Let the time is t.
[tex]N = No e^{-rt}\\\\0.15 = 0.3 e^{-0.0115 t}\\\\0.5 =e^{-0.0115 t}\\\\- 0.6931 = - 0.0115 t \\\\t = 60.3 days[/tex]
Don and Frank started from the same point and drove in opposite directions. Don's rate of travel was 50 miles per hour. Frank's rate of travel was 40 miles per hour. How many miles apart were they at the end of 2 hours?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
180 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Don drove (50 mi/h)×(2 h) = 100 mi.
Frank drove (40 mi/h)×(2 h) = 80 mi.
Since they drove in opposite directions, the total distance between them is
100 mi +80 mi = 180 mi.

Which expression is equivalent to (3x^2+4x-7)(x-2)
Answer:
Option C.
(3x² + 4x– 7)(x) + (3x² + 4x– 7)(–2)
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, we obtained:
3x² + 4x– 7
x – 2
To know which option is correct, we shall obtained the product of the expression. The product of the expression can be obtained as follow:
(3x² + 4x– 7) (x – 2)
NOTE: (3x² + 4x– 7) will be multiplied by x and –2 as illustrated below:
x(3x² + 4x– 7) – 2(3x² + 4x– 7)
Rearrange
(3x² + 4x– 7)(x) + (3x² + 4x– 7)(–2)
Thus, Option C gives the correct answer to the question.

An angle measures 19.4° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
Answer:
37.8+52.2=90
Step-by-step explanation: x + (x + 14.4) = 90
2x + 14.4 = 90
2x = 75.6
x = 37.8 (one angle)
And (x + 14.4) = 52.2 (other angle).

Answer:
A. 2.04 seconds
B. 5.92
C: 1.48 - 0.4 = 1.08 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
USE THIS TO GET "B"
the f(-b/2a) is the highest point,
the vertex of the parabola [-b/2a, f(-b/2a)] will give you the time
and height of the highest point
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
USE THIS TO GET "A"... you will get two answers one will be negative
ignore that one , the positive one is the time to hit the ground
if you factor the equation (use the quadratic formula) you will get
the "zeros" that is where the ball is on the ground...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THIS IS FOR PART "C"
if you set the equation equal to 4.5 meters and factor that for the "zeros" you will get the two times that the ball is at that height.. subtract the two times for the duration
When a closed curve is parameterized by {x[t], y[t]}, then as you advance along the curve in the direction of the parameterization, which way do the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point; in the direction you are going, or in the direction opposite to the direction you are going?
Answer:
In the direction you are going,
Explanation:
We know that the tangent to {x[t], y[t]} are {x'[t], y'[t]}. Since {x'[t], y'[t]} are tangents at {x[t], y[t]}, we know that the tangent at a point is always parallel to the direction of the function at that point and in the direction of the function. So, the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point in my direction of motion as I move along the curve.
So, the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point in the direction you are going.
