Using the insurance company's assumptions, calculate the probability that there are fewer than 3 tornadoes in a 14-year period. Round your answer to four decimal places.
Answers
Answer: 19.2222
Step-by-step explanation:
given data;
no of tornadoes = 2,1,0 because it’s fewer than 3.
period = 14 years
probability of a tornado in a calendar year = 0.12
solution:
probability of exactly 2 tornadoes
= ( 0.12 )^2 * ( 0.88 )^11 * ( 14! / 2! * 11! )
= 0.0144 * 0.2451 * 1092
= 3.8541
probability of exac one tornado
= ( 0.12 )^1 * ( 0.88 )^12 * ( 14! / 1! * 12! )
= 0.12 * 0.2157 * 182
= 12.7109
probability of exactly 0 tornado
= ( 0.12 )^0 * ( 0.88 )^13 * ( 14! / 0! * 13! )
= 1 * 0.1898 * 14
= 2.6572
probability if fewer than 3 tornadoes
= 3.8541 + 12.7109 +2.6572
= 19.2222
Benjamin’s and David’s ages add up to 36 years. The sum of twice their respective ages also add up to 72 years. Find their ages
Answers
Explanation:
Let x be the age of Benjamin
Let y be the age of David
x + y = 36
And 2x + 2y = 72
If we plug 30 for x and 6 for y we get:
30 + 6 = 36
36 = 36
2(30) + 2(6) = 72
60 + 12 = 72
72 = 72
=
Answer:
It can be any two numbers that sum up to 36.

A researcher reports a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of Drosophila in a population with mutation Adh-F to be [0.34, 0.38]. Therefore, there is a probability of 0.98 that the proportion of Drosophola with this mutation is between 0.34 and 0.38. True or False
Answers
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
The 98% is confidence interval its not a probability estimate. The probability will be different from the confidence interval. Confidence interval is about the population mean and is not calculated based on sample mean. Every confidence interval contains the sample mean. There is 98% confidence that the proportion of Drosophola with his mutation is between 0.34 and 0.38.
A study was conducted to assess the effects that occur when children are exposed to cocaine before birth. Children were tested at age 4 for object assembly skill, which was described as a task requiring visual spatial skills related to mathematical competence. The 190 children born to cocaine users had a mean of 7.3 and a standard deviation of 3.0 The 186 children not exposed to cocaine had a mean score of 8.2 with a standard deviation of 3.0 Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that prenatal cocaine exposure is associated with lower scores of four year old children on the test of object assembly.
What are null and alternative hypothesis? What is test statistics?
Answers
Answer:
We conclude that prenatal cocaine exposure is associated with lower scores of four-year-old children on the test of object assembly.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the 190 children born to cocaine users had a mean of 7.3 and a standard deviation of 3.0 The 186 children not exposed to cocaine had a mean score of 8.2 with a standard deviation of 3.0.
Let [tex]\mu_1[/tex] = population mean score for children born to cocaine users.
[tex]\mu_2[/tex] = population mean score for children not exposed to cocaine.
So, Null Hypothesis, : = 490 {means that the prenatal cocaine exposure is not associated with lower scores of four-year-old children on the test of object assembly}
Alternate Hypothesis, : 490 {means that the prenatal cocaine exposure is associated with lower scores of four-year-old children on the test of object assembly}
The test statistics that will be used here is Two-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviations;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_p \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t__n_1_+_n_2_-_2[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X_1[/tex] = sample mean score of children born to cocaine users = 7.3
[tex]\bar X_2[/tex] = sample mean score of children not exposed to cocaine = 8.2
[tex]s_1[/tex] = sample standard deviation for children born to cocaine users = 3
[tex]s_2[/tex] = sample standard deviation for children not exposed to cocaine = 3
[tex]n_1[/tex] = sample of children born to cocaine users = 190
[tex]n_2[/tex] = sample of children not exposed to cocaine = 186
Also, [tex]s_p=\sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)\times s_1^{2}+(n_2-1)\times s_2^{2} }{n_1+n_2-2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(190-1)\times 3^{2}+(186-1)\times 3^{2} }{190+186-2} }[/tex] = 3
So, the test statistics = ~
= -2.908
The value of t-test statistics is -2.908.
Now, at a 0.05 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of -1.645 at 374 degrees of freedom for the left-tailed test.
Since the value of our test statistics is less than the critical value of t as -2.908 < -1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will fall in the rejection region.
Therefore, we conclude that prenatal cocaine exposure is associated with lower scores of four-year-old children on the test of object assembly.
In the null hypothesis, a test always forecasts no effect, while the alternate theory states the research expectation impact, and calculation as follows:
Null and alternative hypothesis:Calculating the pooled estimator of [tex]\sigma^2[/tex], denoted by [tex]S^2_p[/tex], is defined by
[tex]\to \bold{S^2_p= \frac{(n_1 - 1) S^2_1+ (n_2 - 1)S^2_2}{n_1 + n_2 - 2}}[/tex]
Null hypothesis:
[tex]\to H_0 : \mu_1 - \mu_2 = \Delta_0\\[/tex]
Test statistic:
[tex]\to T_0=\frac{\bar{X_1}- \bar{X_2} -\Delta_0}{S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}} \\\\[/tex]
Alternative Hypothesis:
[tex]H_1 : \mu_1 -\mu_2 \neq \Delta_0\\\\ H_1 : \mu_1 -\mu_2 > \Delta_0\\\\H_1 : \mu_1 -\mu_2 < \Delta_0\\\\[/tex]
Rejection Criterion
[tex]t_0 > t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} , n_1+n_2 -2}\ \ \ or\ \ \ t_0 < - t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} , n_1+n_2 -2} \\\\t_o > t_{\alpha , n_1+n_2 -2} \\\\t_o > -t_{\alpha , n_1+n_2 -2}[/tex]
Given value:
[tex]\to S_p=9\\\\\to \Delta_0=0\\\\\to t_0=-\frac{0.9}{3(\sqrt{(\frac{1}{190}+\frac{1}{186})})}=-2.9\\\\\to t_{0.05,374}=1.645\\\\[/tex]
here
[tex]\to t_0 < -t_{0.05,374}[/tex]
hence rejecting the [tex]H_0[/tex]
Since there should be enough evidence that prenatal cocaine exposure is linked to inferior item assembly scores in 4-year-olds.

At the 5 percent level of significance, does this sample show that the average age was different in 2010? b. Which is the right hypotheses to test the statement?c. What are the test statistic and critical value?
Answers
Answer:
No the sample does not show that the average age was different in 2010
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 50
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = 38.5[/tex]
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 37[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 16[/tex]
The level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 5 \% = 0.05[/tex]
The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : \mu = 37[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_a : \mu \ne 37[/tex]
The critical value of the level of significance obtained from the normal distribution table is ([tex]Z_{\alpha } = 1.645[/tex] )
Generally the test statistics is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]t = \frac{ \= x - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]t = \frac{ 38.5 - 37}{ \frac{16}{\sqrt{50} } }[/tex]
[tex]t = 0.663[/tex]
Now looking at the value t and [tex]Z_{\alpha }[/tex] we see that [tex]t < Z_{\alpha }[/tex] hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
This mean that there is no sufficient evidence to state that the sample shows that the average age was different in 2010

Answers
Answer:
a) 5[tex]cm^{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Bodies have three dimensions (width, height and depth). Measuring volume is calculating the number of cubic units that can fit inside.
When raising to 3, these dimensions are included and therefore 5[tex]cm^{3}[/tex] is a measure of volume.
Answer:
5cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume for a form will always be in cubic units.
Area of a shape will always be in squared units.
Length will not be in cubic or squared units.
Hence, the first option is a measure for volume.
The second option is equal to 5cm^2 which represents a measure for area, as does the fourth option.
The third option represents a measurement of length, for example the length of a line segment or the height of a figure.

Lila is camping with her family. She wants to hike to the lake, go fishing, and hike back before 6:05 P.M. It will take 1 hour and 10 minutes to hike to the lake and 1 hour and 50 minutes to hike back. Lila wants to fish for 3 hours and 10 minutes. What is the latest time Lila can start the hike to the lake?
Answers
Lila will need to start the hike at 11: 55 a.m. to be back at exactly 6: 05 p.m. or at 11: 54 a.m. to be before 6: 05 p.m (6: 04 p.m.)
Explanation:
To solve this question, the first step is to calculate how much time does hiking to the lake, go fishing, and go back takes in total. This can be calculated by adding the time of the three activities. This means 1 hour 10 minutes + 3 hours 10 minutes + 1 hour 50 minutes which is equal to 6 hours 10 minutes. The detailed process is shown below.
Add the hours: 1 + 3 + 1 = 5
Add the minutes: 10+50 +10 = 70
Also, because the total of minutes is above 60 (each hour has 60 minutes) it is necessary to subtract 60 minutes and add 1 hour.
5 hours + 1 hour and 70 minutes - 60 minutes = 6 hours and 10 minutes
Now, to solve the question subtract the time of the activities to the time Lila needs to complete all the activities.
6: 05 p.m. - 6 hours and 10 minutes = 11: 55 a.m
You can get this result by substracting first the hours and then the minutes
6: 05 p.m. - 6 hours = 12: 05 p.m.
12: 05 - 10 minutes = 11: 55 a.m.
According to this, Lila will need to start the hike at 11: 55 a.m. to be back at exactly 6: 05 p.m. or at 11: 54 a.m. to be before 6: 05 a.m because if she starts at 11: 54 a.m. she will be back at 6:04, which is a minute before 6:05 p.m.

Given the following three points, find by the hand the quadratic function they represent (0,6, (2,16, (3,33)
Answers
Answer:
[tex] f(x) = 4x^2 - 3x + 6 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic function is given as [tex] f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c [/tex]
Let's find a, b and c:
Substituting (0, 6):
[tex] 6 = a(0)^2 + b(0) + c [/tex]
[tex] 6 = 0 + 0 + c [/tex]
[tex] c = 6 [/tex]
Now that we know the value of c, let's derive 2 system of equations we would use to solve for a and b simultaneously as follows.
Substituting (2, 16), and c = 6
[tex] f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c [/tex]
[tex] 16 = a(2)^2 + b(2) + 6 [/tex]
[tex] 16 = 4a + 2b + 6 [/tex]
[tex] 16 - 6 = 4a + 2b + 6 - 6 [/tex]
[tex] 10 = 4a + 2b [/tex]
[tex] 10 = 2(2a + b) [/tex]
[tex] \frac{10}{2} = \frac{2(2a + b)}{2} [/tex]
[tex] 5 = 2a + b [/tex]
[tex] 2a + b = 5 [/tex] => (Equation 1)
Substituting (3, 33), and c = 6
[tex] f(x) = ax^2 + bx + x [/tex]
[tex] 33 = a(3)^2 + b(3) + 6 [/tex]
[tex] 33 = 9a + 3b + 6 [/tex]
[tex] 33 - 6 = 9a + 3b + 6 - 6 [/tex]
[tex] 27 = 9a + 3b [/tex]
[tex] 27 = 3(3a + b) [/tex]
[tex] \frac{27}{3} = \frac{3(3a + b)}{3} [/tex]
[tex] 9 = 3a + b [/tex]
[tex] 3a + b = 9 [/tex] => (Equation 2)
Subtract equation 1 from equation 2 to solve simultaneously for a and b.
[tex] 3a + b = 9 [/tex]
[tex] 2a + b = 5 [/tex]
[tex] a = 4 [/tex]
Replace a with 4 in equation 2.
[tex] 2a + b = 5 [/tex]
[tex] 2(4) + b = 5 [/tex]
[tex] 8 + b = 5 [/tex]
[tex] 8 + b - 8 = 5 - 8 [/tex]
[tex] b = -3 [/tex]
The quadratic function that represents the given 3 points would be as follows:
[tex] f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c [/tex]
[tex] f(x) = (4)x^2 + (-3)x + 6 [/tex]
[tex] f(x) = 4x^2 - 3x + 6 [/tex]
