Consider the probability that no less than 37 out of 295 cell phone calls will be disconnected. Choose the best description of the area under the normal curve that would be used to approximate binomial probability.

a. Area to the right of 36.5
b. Area to the right of 37.5
c. Area to the left of 36.5
d. Area to the left of 37.5
e. Area between 36.5 and 37.5

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  Choice A) Area to the right of 36.5

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

Explanation:

The phrasing "no less than" means the same as "at least".

Saying "at least 37" means 37 is the lowest we can go.

If x is the number of disconnected calls, then [tex]x \ge 37[/tex] and we want to find the probability of this happening (the max being 295).

We could use the binomial distribution to find the answer, but that would require adding 295-37+1 = 259 different values which could get tedious. So we could use the normal approximation to make things relatively straight forward.

Assuming this binomial meets the requirements of the normal approximation, then we'd look under the normal curve for the area to the right of 36.5; which is why the answer is choice A.

Why 36.5 and not 37? This has to do with the continuity correction factor when translating from a discrete distribution (binomial) to a continuous one (normal).

If we used 37, then we'd be missing out on the edge case. So we go a bit beyond 37 to capture 36.5 instead. It's like a fail safe to ensure we do account for that endpoint of 37. It's like adding a buffer or padding.

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

Side notes:

Choice B would be the answer if we wanted to excluded 37 from the group, ie if we wanted to calculate [tex]P(x > 37)[/tex] instead of [tex]P(x \ge 37)[/tex]. So we're moving in the opposite direction of choice A to avoid that edge case. We go with "right" instead of "left" since this is what the inequality sign says.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question isn't complete and well written but I'll give examples on the calculation of the area of a circle.

1. Let's assume that a circle has a radius of 14cm and we want to know the area.

Area of a circle = πr²

where π = 3.142

r = radius = 14cm

Area = πr² = 3.142 × 14²

= 3.142 × 196

= 615.382cm²

2. Let's assume that we are given a diameter of 10cm and told to calculate the area of the circle.

Note that Diameter is twice the radius.

Area of a circle = πr²

where π = 3.142

r = radius = Diameter/2 = 10cm/2 = 5cm

Area = πr² = 3.142 × 5²

= 3.142 × 25

= 78.55cm²

Answer:

  p(x) = x³ -3x²+4x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

When the polynomial has real coefficients, the complex roots come in conjugate pairs. You are given one root as 1+i, so there is another that is 1-i.

Each root r gives rise to a factor (x -r). Then the three roots tell you the factorization is ...

  p(x) = (x -1)(x -(1+i))(x -(1-i))

The last two factors can be recognized as the factors of the difference of squares:

  ((x -1) +i)((x -1) -i) = (x -1)² -i²

  = (x² -2x +1) -(-1) = x² -2x +2

Now the whole polynomial can be seen to be ...

  p(x) = (x -1)(x² -2x +2) = x(x² -2x +2) -1(x² -2x +2)

  p(x) = x³ -2x² +2x -x² +2x -2 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  p(x) = x³ -3x²+4x -2

Mark is investing $47,000 in an account paying 5.26% interest compounded continuously.
What will Mark's account balance be in 17 years?
O $114,932.80
$114,925.39
$114,921.47
$114.925.46

Answers

Answer: Choice A) 114,932.80

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

Work Shown:

A = P*e^(r*t)

A = 47000*e^(0.0526*17)

A = 114,932.799077198

A = 114,932.80

Notes:

P = 47,000 is the principal or amount depositedr = 0.0526 is the decimal form of 5.26%The "e" refers to the special constant e = 2.718... which is similar to pi = 3.14... I would let your calculator handle this constant. There should be a button labeled "e".

Mark's account balance after 17 years would be $114,932.8

What is the formula for the continuous compounding?

[tex]A=Pe^{rt}[/tex]

where,

A = Accrued amount

P = Principal amount

r = interest rate as a decimal

R = interest rate as a percent

r = R/100

t = time in years

For given question,

P = $47000, t = 17 years

R = 5.26%

[tex]\Rightarrow r =\frac{5.26}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow r = 0.0526[/tex]

Using the Continuous Compounding Formula,

[tex]\Rightarrow A=Pe^{rt}\\\\\Rightarrow A=47000\times e^{0.0526\times 17}\\\\\Rightarrow A=114932.8[/tex]

Therefore, Mark's account balance after 17 years would be $114,932.8

2. Find all real numbers in the interval [0,2pi) that satisfy the equation.

3. Simplify the following trigonometric expressions, using identities as needed:

sin(x)/1−cos(x) + 1−cos(x)/sin(x)

Answers

(1) Recall that

sin(x - y) = sin(x) cos(y) - cos(x) sin(y)

sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1

Given that α lies in the third quadrant, and β lies in the fourth quadrant, we expect to have

• sin(α) < 0 and cos(α) < 0

• sin(β) < 0 and cos(β) > 0

Solve for cos(α) and sin(β) :

cos(α) = -√(1 - sin²(α)) = -3/5

sin(β) = -√(1 - cos²(β)) = -5/13

Then

sin(α - β) = sin(α) cos(β) - cos(α) sin(β) =  (-4/5) (12/13) - (-3/5) (-5/13)

==>   sin(α - β) = -63/65

(2) In the second identity listed above, multiplying through both sides by 1/cos²(x) gives another identity,

sin²(x)/cos²(x) + cos²(x)/cos²(x) = 1/cos²(x)

==>   tan²(x) + 1 = sec²(x)

Rewrite the equation as

3 sec²(x) tan(x) = 4 tan(x)

3 (tan²(x) + 1) tan(x) = 4 tan(x)

3 tan³(x) + 3 tan(x) = 4 tan(x)

3 tan³(x) - tan(x) = 0

tan(x) (3 tan²(x) - 1) = 0

Solve for x :

tan(x) = 0   or   3 tan²(x) - 1 = 0

tan(x) = 0   or   tan²(x) = 1/3

tan(x) = 0   or   tan(x) = ±√(1/3)

x = arctan(0) +   or   x = arctan(1/√3) +   or   x = arctan(-1/√3) +

x =   or   x = π/6 +   or   x = -π/6 +

where n is any integer. In the interval [0, 2π), we get the solutions

x = 0, π/6, 5π/6, π, 7π/6, 11π/6

(3) You only need to rewrite the first term:

[tex]\dfrac{\sin(x)}{1-\cos(x)} \times \dfrac{1+\cos(x)}{1+\cos(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)(1+\cos(x))}{1-\cos^2(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)(1+\cos(x)}{\sin^2(x)} = \dfrac{1+\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\dfrac{\sin(x)}{1-\cos(x)}+\dfrac{1-\cos(x)}{\sin(x)} = \dfrac{1+\cos(x)+1-\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}=\dfrac2{\sin(x)}[/tex]

Assume that there is a 8​% rate of disk drive failure in a year. a. If all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive with a copy stored on a second hard disk​ drive, what is the probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive?

Answers

Answer:

0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive

Step-by-step explanation:

For each disk, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it works, or it does not. The probability of a disk working is independent of any other disk, 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.

Assume that there is a 8​% rate of disk drive failure in a year.

So 100 - 8 = 92% probability of working, which means that [tex]p = 0.92[/tex]

Two disks are used:

This means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]

What is the probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.92)^{0}.(0.08)^{2} = 0.0064[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0064 = 0.9936[/tex]

0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive

Point-slope form equation is given as y - b = m(x - a). Where,

(a, b) = a point on the line = (-2, 4)

m = slope = ¼ (sleep of the line perpendicular to y = -4x - 1 is the negative reciprocal of its slope value, -4 which is ¼)

✔️To write the equation, substitute (a, b) = (-2, 4), and m = ¼ into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

y - 4 = ¼(x - (-2))
