Suppose 1 in 5 (1/5) JWU students own their own car. If four students are randomly selected, what is the probability that all four own their car?
Answer:
1/625 = 0.0016
Step-by-step explanation:
update, oh sorry, this is about 4 picks and not 5.
so, it is 1/5⁴ = 1/625 = 0.0016
1 in 5 own their own car.
that is 20% or a chance of 1/5 = 0.2 of picking a student owning a car.
let's assume that the total number of students is large enough that each pick does not change the individual probabilities.
each event (picking a student and checking the ownership of a car) is independent and non-overlapping.
so, the probability that all 5 own a car is the chance of picking the 5th student owning a car AND all 4 previous student picks owning a car.
the probability that all 4 previous picks own a car is the chance of picking the fourth student owning a car AND all 3 previous student picks owning a car.
the probability that all 3 previous picks own a car is the chance of picking the third student owning a car AND all 2 previous student picks owning a car.
the probability that all 2 previous picks own a car is the chance of picking the second student owning a car AND the previous student pick owning a car.
the probability that the first student pick owns a car is 1/5 or 0.2
so, we have a clean
1/5×1/5×1/5×1/5×1/5 = 1/5⁵ probability = 1/3125 = 0.00032

9514 1404 393
Answer:
non-cardholder: 210cardholder: 368Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the number of non-cardholder tickets sold. Then total revenue is ...
2.00n +1.25(578 -n) = 880.00
0.75n + 722.50 = 880.00
0.75n = 157.50 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 722.50
n = 210 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.75. Number of non-cardholder tickets

Step-by-step explanation:
1) Find out r of the sequence. The first term(a1) is 16384, the second term (a2) is 8192.
8192=16384*r. r= 0.5
2) Use the rule that an=a1*r^(n-1)
a11=a1*r^10
a11= 16384*((0.5)^10)= 16384/ (2^10)=16.
Which of the following would increase the width of a confidence interval for a population mean? Choose the correct answer below. A. Increase the level of confidence B. Decrease the sample standard deviation. C. Increase the sample size D. All of the above
Answer:
A. Increase the level of confidence
Step-by-step explanation:
The margin of error is given by:
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = \frac{Ts}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which T is related to the level of confidence(the higher the level of confidence, the higher T is), s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
Increase the width:
That is, increasing the margin of error, as the width is twice the margin of error, the possible options are:
Increase T -> increase confidence level.
Increase s -> Increase the standard deviation of the sample.
Decrease n -> Decrease the sample size.
Thus, the correct answer is given by option A.
A sample of 42 observations is selected from one population with a population standard deviation of 3.3. The sample mean is 101.0. A sample of 53 observations is selected from a second population with a population standard deviation of 3.6. The sample mean is 99.0. Conduct the following test of hypothesis using the 0.04 significance level.
H0 : μ1 = μ2
H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2
a. State the decision rule.
b. Compute the value of the test statistic.
c. What is your decision regarding H0?
d. What is the p-value?
Answer:
a)
[tex]|z| < 2.054[/tex]: Do not reject the null hypothesis.
[tex]|z| > 2.054[/tex]: Reject the null hypothesis.
b) [tex]z = 2.81[/tex]
c) Reject.
d) The p-value is 0.005.
Step-by-step explanation:
Before testing the hypothesis, we need to understand the central limit theorem and the subtraction of normal variables.
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.
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Population 1:
Sample of 42, standard deviation of 3.3, mean of 101, so:
[tex]\mu_1 = 101[/tex]
[tex]s_1 = \frac{3.3}{\sqrt{42}} = 0.51[/tex]
Population 2:
Sample of 53, standard deviation of 3.6, mean of 99, so:
[tex]\mu_2 = 99[/tex]
[tex]s_2 = \frac{3.6}{\sqrt{53}} = 0.495[/tex]
H0 : μ1 = μ2
Can also be written as:
[tex]H_0: \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0[/tex]
H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2
Can also be written as:
[tex]H_1: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \neq 0[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error .
a. State the decision rule.
0.04 significance level.
Two-tailed test(test if the means are different), so between the 0 + (4/2) = 2nd and the 100 - (4/2) = 98th percentile of the z-distribution, and looking at the z-table, we get that:
[tex]|z| < 2.054[/tex]: Do not reject the null hypothesis.
[tex]|z| > 2.054[/tex]: Reject the null hypothesis.
b. Compute the value of the test statistic.
0 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 0[/tex]
From the samples:
[tex]X = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 101 - 99 = 2[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.51^2 + 0.495^2} = 0.71[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{2 - 0}{0.71}[/tex]
[tex]z = 2.81[/tex]
c. What is your decision regarding H0?
[tex]|z| = 2.81 > 2.054[/tex], which means that the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.
d. What is the p-value?
Probability that the means differ by at least 2, either plus or minus, which is P(|z| > 2.81), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -2.81.
Looking at the z-table, z = -2.81 has a p-value of 0.0025.
2*0.0025 = 0.005
The p-value is 0.005.

Oak wilt is a fungal disease that infects oak trees. Scientists have discovered that a single tree in a small forest is infected with oak wilt. They determined that they can use this exponential model to predict the number of trees that will be infected after t years.
f(t)=e^0.4t
Question:
Rewrite the exponential model as a logarithmic model that calculates the # of years, g(x) for the number of infected trees to reach a value of x.
The logarithmic model is:
[tex]g(x) = \frac{\ln{x}}{0.4}[/tex]
-------------
We are given an exponential function, for the amount of infected trees f(x) after x years.To find the amount years needed for the number of infected trees to reach x, we find the inverse function, applying the natural logarithm.-------------
The original function is:
[tex]y = f(x) = e^{0.4x}[/tex]
To find the inverse function, first, we exchange y and x, so:
[tex]e^{0.4y} = x[/tex]
Now, we have to isolate y, and we start applying the natural logarithm to both sides of the equality. So
[tex]\ln{e^{0.4y}} = \ln{x}[/tex]
[tex]0.4y = \ln{x}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{\ln{x}}{0.4}[/tex]
Thus, the logarithmic model is:

O is the center if the regular polygon beloe. Find its perimeter. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary HURRY
Answer:
24.8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 10[/tex] --- sides
The attached decagon
Required
The perimeter
The decagon is made up of 10 isosceles triangles.
The angle at the vertex of each is:
[tex]Angle = \frac{360}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Angle = 36[/tex]
Next, we create a right-angled triangle from the shape (see attachment)
[tex]\theta[/tex] is calculated as:
[tex]\theta = \frac{Angle}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\theta = \frac{36}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\theta = 18[/tex]
Next, calculate x using:
[tex]\sin(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\sin(18) = \frac{x}{4}[/tex]
Make x the subject
[tex]x = 4 * \sin(18)[/tex]
[tex]x = 1.24[/tex]
So, the length (L) of one side of the decagon is:
[tex]L = 2x[/tex]
[tex]L = 2 * 1.24[/tex]
[tex]L = 2.48[/tex]
The perimeter (P) of the shape is:
[tex]P = 10 *L[/tex]
[tex]P = 10 * 2.48[/tex]
[tex]P = 24.8[/tex]
The perimeter of the given polygon rounded to the nearest tenth is; 24.7
What is the perimeter of the Polygon?
The given polygon as we can see has 10 sides.
Now, when we draw a line from the center to the next vertex to the left of the one currently having a line, we will see that the angle can be calculated as; 360/10 = 36° because sum of exterior angles of a polygon sums up to 360°.
Thus, the other two angles will be; (180 - 36)/2 = 72° each
Using sine rule, we can find the length of a side of the polygon as;
x/sin 36 = 4/sin 72
x = (4 * sin 36)/sin 72
x = 2.472
Thus, perimeter = 2.472 * 10 = 24.72 ≈ 24.7

Find the distance of the point (4,4,−4) from the line r(t)=⟨−1+2t,1+2t,3−3t⟩.
Translate the given point and line together so that you get a new point and a new line that passes through the origin. This turns the problem into finding the distance between the new point,
p = (4, 4, -4) - (-1, 1, 3) = (5, 3, -7)
and the new line,
r*(t) = r(t) - ⟨-1, 1, 3⟩ = ⟨2t, 2t, -3t⟩
Let p = ⟨5, 3, -7⟩, the vector starting at the origin and pointing to p. Then the quantity ||p - r*(t)|| is the distance from the point p to the line r*(t).
Let u be such that ||p - r*(t)|| is minimized. At the value t = u, the vector p - r*(t) is orthogonal to the line r*(t), so that
(p - r*(u) ) • r*(u) = 0
I've attached a sketch with all these elements in case this description is confusing. (The red dashed line is meant to be perpendicular to r*(t).)
Solve this equation for u :
p • r*(u) - r*(u) • r*(u) = 0
p • r*(u) = r*(u) • r*(u)
and x • x = ||x||² for any vector x, so
p • r*(u) = ||r*(u)||²
⟨5, 3, -7⟩ • ⟨2u, 2u, -3u⟩ = (2u)² + (2u)² + (-3u)²
10u + 6u + 21u = 4u ² + 4u ² + 9u ²
17u ² - 37u = 0
u (17u - 37) = 0
==> u = 0 or u = 37/17
We ignore u = 0, since the dot product of any vector with the zero vector is 0.
Then the minimum distance distance between the given point and line is
||p - r*(u)|| = ||⟨5, 3, -7⟩ - 37/17 ⟨2, 2, -3⟩|| = √(42/17)

-104-78i /13
-8-6i
The square root of (2-36i)/(2+3i) is √(112-66i)/13.
The given expression is [tex]\frac{2-36i}{2+3i}[/tex].
What is the square root?The square root of a number is the inverse operation of squaring a number. The square of a number is the value that is obtained when we multiply the number by itself, while the square root of a number is obtained by finding a number that when squared gives the original number.
Multiply both numerator and denominator by 2-3i.
Now, [tex]\frac{2-36i}{2+3i}\times\frac{2-3i}{2-3i}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(2-36i)(2-3i)}{(2+3i)(2-3i)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(4-72i+6i-108i^2)}{4-9i^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(4-66i+108)}{4+9}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(112-66i)}{13}[/tex]
Now square root is √(112-66i)/13
Therefore, the square root of (2-36i)/(2+3i) is √(112-66i)/13.

17.8% is the probability that more than 4 are wearing their seat belts.
What is Probability?It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.
Given that Police estimate that 25% of drivers drive without their seat belts.
If they stop 6 drivers at random we need to find the probability that more than 4 are wearing their seat belts.
For each driver stopped, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are wearing their seatbelts, or they are not.
he drivers are chosen at random, which mean that the probability of a driver wearing their seatbelts is independent from other drivers.
Police estimate that 25% of drivers drive without their seat belts.
This means that 75% wear their seatbelts, so P=0.75
If they stop 6 drivers at random, find the probability that all of them are wearing their seat belts.
[tex]P(X=x)=C_{n,x} p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X=6)=C_{6,6} 0.75^{6} (1-0.75)^{0} =0.1780[/tex]
Hence, 17.8% is the probability that more than 4 are wearing their seat belts.

which table shows a proportional relationship between x and y?
Answer:
Table C
Step-by-step explanation:
For x and y to be proportional , then the values of
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = constant k
Table B
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{3}[/tex] = 2
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{24}{6}[/tex] = 4
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{36}{9}[/tex] = 4
The values are not constant
Table C
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
These values are constant
Then Table C shows a proportional relationship between x and y
Question
Find the volume of a cone with a height of 9 centimeters and a radius of 5 centimeters.
Use 3.14 to approximate pi, round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary, and do not include units.
Answer:
235.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the values into the equation [tex]V=\pi r^2 \frac{h}{3}[/tex], which is the formula for finding the volume of a cone.
[tex]V=(3.14)(5^2)\frac{(9)}{3}[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]V=(3.14)(25)(3)[/tex]
Simplify again.
[tex]V=(78.5)(3)[/tex]
Simplify for the last time.
[tex]V=235.5[/tex]
Note, using 3.14 will give you 235.5, but if you use the [tex]\pi[/tex] button on a scientific calculator, your answer will be 235.62. Given the constraints of the problem, your best bet will be 235.5.
There are 165 children taking swimming lessons at the pool. If 10 children will be assigned to each instructor, how many instructors are needed?
Answer:
17 instructors
Step-by-step explanation:
If each instructor will get 10 children, we have to divided the total number of children taking swimming lessons by the number of children assigned to each instructor (10):
165/10 = 16.5
Unfortunately, we can't have 16 and a half instructors. Since 5 children are remaining, we can round up 16.5 to 17 and get 17 instructors. This implies that 16 instructors will teach 10 children (160 in total) and 1 instructor will teach 5 children (5 in total). 160+5 = 165 total children.
