Answer:
P( A| B)= 0.35. None of the options are correctStep-by-step explanation:
Two events A and B are said to be independent if the occurrence of one of the events does not affect the other occurring. For example, the event of tossing two coins is an independent event since they occur simultaneously. Two events are therefore independent if the following are true.
P(A|B) = P(A)
P(B|A) = P(B)
P(A and B) = P(A)P(B)
If A and B are independent events with P( A) = 0.35 and P( B) = 0.55,
then P( A| B) is a probability of A occurring provided that B has occurred. This is known as conditional probability for an independent event.
From the condition above for independent events, P(A|B) = P(A) and since P(A) = 0.35, hence P(A|B) =0.35

In a recent year, a sample of grade 8 Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean score of 281 with a standard deviation of 34.4. Possible test scores could range from 0 to 500. Assume that the scores are normally distributed. Question 9 (2.5 points) If 2000 students are randomly selected, how many would you expect to have a score between 250 and 305?
Answer:
The number is [tex]N =1147[/tex] students
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 281[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 34.4[/tex]
The sample size is n = 2000
percentage of the would you expect to have a score between 250 and 305 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(\frac{ 250 - 281}{34.4 } < \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{ 305 - 281}{34.4 } )[/tex]
Generally
[tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (Standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]
So
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(-0.9012< Z<0.698 )[/tex]
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(z_2 < 0.698 ) - P(z_1 < -0.9012)[/tex]
From the z table the value of [tex]P( z_2 < 0.698) = 0.75741[/tex]
and [tex]P(z_1 < -0.9012) = 0.18374[/tex]
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.75741 - 0.18374[/tex]
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.57[/tex]
The percentage is [tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = 57\%[/tex]
The number of students that will get this score is
[tex]N = 2000 * 0.57[/tex]
[tex]N =1147[/tex]
Write 8:18 as a fraction in simplest form.
Ratio as a Fraction:
Fraction in Simplest Form:
Answer:
[tex]\text{Ratio as a fraction - \: \boxed{\frac{8}{18}}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Fraction in simplest form - \boxed{\frac{4}{9}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1: Writing a ratio as a fraction
A fraction and a ratio are the same thing - just a different name. Therefore, the colon in a ratio is the same as a divisor line in a fraction. Therefore, to write a ratio as a fraction,
Replace the colon with a divisor line or the divisor line with a colon (use the first portion to transform a ratio into a fraction and the second form to transform a fraction into a ratio).Therefore, 8:18 as a fraction is 8/18.
Part 2: Fraction in simplest form
To put a fraction in simplest form, first divide the numerator by the denominator. If it contains a remainder, you cannot use this step to verify it.
8 only goes into 18 twice and leaves a 2 as a remainder, so this method does not work.
Instead, if both numbers are even, divide by 2.
8/2 = 4
18/2 = 9
Check to see if the new numerator and denominator can reduce any further.
4/9 = 4/9
The fraction in simplest form is 4/9.
what number should replace the question mark
Answer: The missing number is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the table we can only have numbers between 1 and 9,
The pattern that i see is:
We have sets of 3 numbers.
"the bottom number is equal to the difference between the two first numers, if the difference is negative, change the sign, if the difference is zero, there goes a 9 (the next number to zero)"
Goin from right to left we have:
9 - 6 = 3
6 - 2 = 4
4 - 9 = - 5 (is negative, so we actually use -(-5) = 5)
4 - 4 = 0 (we can not use zero, so we use the next number, 9)
3 - 3 = 0 (same as above)
? - 1 = 4
? = 4 + 1 = 5
The missing number is 5.
A plane took off at a point that is 42 meters from the control tower. The flight path takes the plane over the control tower that is 98 meters high. After traveling 83 meters, which statement is most accurate?
A. The plane needs to be about 15 meters higher to clear the tower.
B. The plane clears the tower with about 27 meters to spare.
C. The plane clears the tower with about 15 meters to spare.
D. The plane needs to be about 27 meters higher to clear the tower.
Answer:
D. The plane needs to be about 27 meters higher to clear the tower.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this scenario a triangle is being formed. The base the plane's takeoff point to the tower base which is 42 meters (x).
The hypothenus is the distance travelled by the plane which is 83 meters (h)
The height of the tower is 98 Meters
We want to calculate the height of our triangle (y) so we can guage if the plane scaled the tower.
According to Pythagorean theorem
(x^2) + (y^2) = h^2
y = √ (h^2) - (x^2)
y = √ (83^2) - (42^2)
y= √(6889 - 1764)
y= 71.59 Meters
The height from the plane's position to the top of the tower will be
Height difference = 98 - 71.59 = 26.41 Meters
So the plane should go about 27 Meters higher to clear the tower
In a school, there are 25% fewer 11th graders than 10th graders, and 20% more 11th graders than 12th graders. The total number of students in 10th, 11th, and 12th grades in the school is 190. How many 10th graders are there at the school?
Answer:
There are 80 10th graders in the school
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of 10th graders be x
There are 25% fewer 11th graders
That mean x - 25% of x
x -0.25x = 0.75x
There are 20% more 11th graders than 12th graders
So if number of 12th graders = y, then
0.75x = y + 20/100 * y = y + 0.2y = 1.2y
Since ;
0.75x = 1.2y
then y = 0.75x/1.2 = 0.625x
So let’s add all to give 190
x + 0.75x + 0.625x = 190
2.375x = 190
x = 190/2.375
x = 80

Beer shelf life is a problem for brewers and distributors because when beer is stored at room temperature, its flavor deteriorates. When the average furfuryl ether content reaches 6 μg per liter, a typical consumer begins to taste an unpleasant chemical flavor. At α = .05, would the following sample of 12 randomly chosen bottles stored for a month convince you that the mean furfuryl ether content exceeds the taste threshhold? 8.92 6.99 5.54 5.73 6.38 5.51 6.45 7.50 8.48 5.56 6.90 6.46
Answer:
As the calculated value of t =2.1698 is greater than t (0.05,11) = 1.796 reject H0 . It means chosen bottles stored for a month convince you that the mean furfuryl ether content exceeds the taste threshhold.
Step-by-step explanation:
We formulate our null and alternative hypotheses as
H0 u≤ 6 ug Ha : u > 6 ug
The significance level ∝ = 0.05
The test statistic used is
t = X` - u / s/ √n
which if H0 is true, has the students' t test with n-1 = 11 degrees of freedom.
The critical region t > t (0.05,11) = 1.796
We compute the t value from the data
Xi Xi²
8.92 79.5664
6.99 48.8601
5.54 30.6916
5.73 32.8329
6.38 40.7044
5.51 30.3601
6.45 41.6025
7.50 56.25
8.48 71.9104
5.56 30.9136
6.90 47.61
6.46 41.7316
80.42 553.0336
Now x` = ∑x/ n = 80.42/12 = 6.70
S²= 1/n-1 ( ∑(xi- x`)²= 1/11 ( 553.034 - (80.42)²/12)
= 1/11 (553.034-538.948) = 1.2805
s= 1.1316
Putting the values in the test statistics
t = X` - u / s/ √n = 6.70- 6 / 1.1316 / √12
= 2.1698
The critical region t > t (0.05,11) = 1.796
As the calculated value of t =2.1698 is greater than t (0.05,11) = 1.796 reject H0 . It means chosen bottles stored for a month convince you that the mean furfuryl ether content exceeds the taste threshhold.
A company has 8 mechanics and 6 electricians. If an employee is selected at random, what is the probability that they are an electrician
Answer:
[tex]Probability = \frac{3}{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Electrician = 6
Mechanic = 8
Required
Determine the probability of selecting an electrician
First, we need the total number of employees;
[tex]Total = n(Electrician) + n(Mechanic)[/tex]
[tex]Total = 6 + 8[/tex]
[tex]Total = 14[/tex]
Next, is to determine the required probability using the following formula;
[tex]Probability = \frac{n(Electrician)}{Total}[/tex]
[tex]Probability = \frac{6}{14}[/tex]
Divide numerator and denominator by 2
[tex]Probability = \frac{3}{7}[/tex]
Hence, the probability of selecting an electrician is 3/7

A researcher examines typing speed before a typing class begins, halfway through the class, and after the class is over. 4. Identify the number of levels: 5. Identify the type of design: 6. Identify the dependent variable:
Answer:
Number of levels = 2
Type of design = Repeated measure
Dependent variable = Typing Speed
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of levels in an experiment simply refers to the number of experimental conditions in which participants are subjected to. In the scenario above, the number of levels is 2. Which are ; Halfway through the class and After the class is over.
The type of designed employed is REPEATED MEASURE, this is because the participants all took part in each experimental condition.
The dependent variable is TYPING SPEED, which is the variable which is measured with respect to the independent variable. Hence the observed value depends on period that is (halfway through the class or after the class is over).
which expression is equivalent to x^-5/3
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the power is negative, you automatically know it has to be a or b, because the only way it would be negative is if it was brought from the denominator to the numerator.
The answer is B, because the numerator of the power, is what is inside the square root, while the denominator is what is outside the square root.
What is the radius of the circle whose center is the
origin and that passes through the point (5,12)?
Answer:
13 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the equation of a circle, (x - h)² + ( y - k )² = r², where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.
Plug in the values and solve for r:
(5 - 0)² + (12 - 0)² = r²
25 + 144 = r²
169 = r²
13 = r

A large population has a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 40. Which one of the following intervals would contain approximately 95% of the measurements?
a. (160, 240)
b. (140, 260)
c. (120, 280)
d. (200, 320)
The intervals would contain approximately 95% of the measurements will be (120, 280). Then the correct option is C.
What is a normal distribution?The Gaussian Distribution is another name for it. The most significant continuous probability distribution is this one. Because the curve resembles a bell, it is also known as a bell curve.
In numerical documentation, these realities can be communicated as follows, where Pr(X) is the likelihood capability, Χ is a perception from an ordinarily circulated irregular variable, μ (mu) is the mean of the dispersion, and σ (sigma) is its standard deviation:
The interval for 95% will be given as,
Pr(X) = μ ± 2σ
Pr(X) = 200 ± 2(40)
Pr(X) = 200 ± 80
Pr(X) = (200 - 80, 200 + 80)
Pr(X) = (120, 280)
The intervals would contain approximately 95% of the measurements will be (120, 280). Then the correct option is C.

Answer:
Left angle = 60°
Top angle = 120°
Right angle = 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
Use what you know about angle relationships to set up equations you can solve for each variable.
The top top angle, for example, added to one of the other angles must equal 180° because they are supplementary.
You have two variables, so you need at least two equations (I made three but only used two).

Bighorn sheep are beautiful wild animals found throughout the western United States. Data for this problem are based on information taken from The Desert Bighorn, edited by Monson and Sumner 9University of Arizona Press). Let x be the age of a bighorn sheep (in years), and let y be the mortality rate (percent that die) for this age group. For example, x = 1, y = 14 means that 14% of the bighorn sheep between 1 and 2 years old died. A random sample of Arizona bighorn sheep gave the following information:

(c) Find the correlation coefficient r. Find the coefficient of determination . What percentage of variation in y is explained by the variation in x and the least squares model?
Answer:
The answer and explanation are below
Step-by-step explanation:
i followed the data that was given in the question.
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
a.) please refer to the attachment for the scatter diagram. Y was plotted against X.
b. The equation is given as:
Y = b₁ + b₀X
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
b₁ = n∑xy - (∑x)(∑y)/n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
b₁ = 5 x 275 - 15 x 87.3/5 x 55 - (15²)
= 1375-1309.5/275-225
= 65.5/50
= 1.31
b₀ = 87.3/5 - 1.31(15/5)
= 87.3/5 - 1.31x3
= 13.53
the regression line is
Y = 13.53 + 1.31X
please refer to the attachment for the diagram for the regression line.
c. we are required to find r.
r = n∑XY - (∑X)(∑Y)/√n∑X²-(∑X)² × √n∑y²-(∑y)²
∑x=15 ; ∑y=87.3;∑x2=55; ∑y2=1569.77; ∑xy=275
inserting these values:
r = 5 x 275-(15)(87.3)/√275-225 x √7848.85 - 7621.29

Coefficient of determination = r²
r = 0.6139
r² = 0.3769 = 37.69%
Therefore 37.69% variation in y is explained by variation in x and the least square model.
a function includes the points (4, -3) and (-9,4). what fraction in lowest terms represents the output value of this function for an input of zero
Answer:
-11/13
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line through these points can be written using the 2-point form of the equation of a line:
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (4 -(-3))/(-9-4)/(x -4) -3
y = (-7/13)x +28/13 -3
For x=0, the value of y is ...
y = 28/13 -39/13 = -11/13
The output for an input of 0 is -11/13.
In Triangle A B C, what is the value of x? Triangle A B C. Angle A is (10 x minus 10) degrees, angle B is (8 x) degrees, angle C is (10 x + 8) degrees.
Answer:
6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of all angles in a triangle are 180 degrees.
=> 10x -10 + 8x + 10x + 8 = 180
=> 28x -2 = 180
=> 28x = 182
=> x = 6.5
So, Angle A = 10 x 6.5 -10 = 65 - 10 = 55 degrees
Angle B = 8 x 6.5 = 52 degrees
Angle C = 10 x 6.5 + 8 = 65 + 8 = 73 degrees.
55 + 52 + 73 = 55 + 125 = 180 degrees

An airplane travels 1200 miles in 4 hours with the wind. The same trip takes 5 hours against the wind. What is the speed of the plane in still air and what is the wind speed?
Answer:
Speed of plane in still air is 270 mph
Wind speed is 30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Check the picture.
The speed of the plane in still air is 270 mph and the speed of the wind will be 30 mph.
What is the distance formula?The distance traveled by an object is the product of the speed of an object and the time taken.
Distance = speed x time
An airplane travels 1200 miles in 4 hours with the wind. The same trip takes 5 hours against the wind.
Let the speed of the plane be x
The speed of wind be y
Distance covered with the wind = (x + y)t
1200 = (x + y)4
(x + y) = 1200/4
(x + y)= 300 .....(a)
Distance covered against the wind = (x - y)t
1200 = (x - y)5
(x - y) = 1200/5
(x - y) = 240 .......(b)
By solving both the equation
(x + y)= 300
(x - y) = 240
Therefore the values will be x= 270mph and y = 30 mph

Given that [tex]y = 5\cdot x + 11[/tex] and [tex]t = 2-x[/tex], the parametric equations are obtained by algebraic means:
1) [tex]t = 2-x[/tex] Given
2) [tex]y = 5\cdot x +11[/tex] Given
3) [tex]y = 5\cdot (x\cdot 1)+11[/tex] Associative and modulative properties
4) [tex]y = 5\cdot \left[(-1)^{-1} \cdot (-1)\right]\cdot x +11[/tex] Existence of multiplicative inverse/Commutative property
5) [tex]y = [5\cdot (-1)^{-1}]\cdot [(-1)\cdot x]+11[/tex] Associative property
6) [tex]y = -5\cdot (-x)+11[/tex] [tex]\frac{a}{-b} = -\frac{a}{b}[/tex] / [tex](-1)\cdot a = -a[/tex]
7) [tex]y = -5\cdot (-x+0)+11[/tex] Modulative property

9) [tex]y = -5 \cdot [(2-x)+(-2)]+11[/tex] Associative and commutative properties
10) [tex]y = (-5)\cdot (2-x) + (-5)\cdot (-2) +11[/tex] Distributive property
11) [tex]y = (-5)\cdot (2-x) +21[/tex] [tex](-a)\cdot (-b) = a\cdot b[/tex]
12) [tex]y = (-5)\cdot t +21[/tex] By 1)
13) [tex]y = -5\cdot t +21[/tex] [tex](-a)\cdot b = -a \cdot b[/tex]/Result
14) [tex]t+x = (2-x)+x[/tex] Compatibility with addition

18) [tex]x = 2-t[/tex] Associative and commutative properties/Definition of subtraction/Result
In consequence, the right answer is [tex]x = 2-t[/tex] and [tex]y = -5\cdot t +21[/tex].
Frank and Gregory leave Centreville traveling in opposite directions on a straight road. Gregory drives 22 miles per hour faster than Frank. After 2.25 hours, they are 216 miles apart. Find Frank's speed and Gregory's speed.
Answer:
Frank speed = 37mi/hGregory speed = 59mi/hrStep-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of Frank be x and speed of Gregory be y. If Gregory drives 22 miles per hour faster than Frank, then y = 22+x. SInce they they are 216miles apart after 2.25 hours,
Speed = Distance/Time
Total time travelled by them = 2.25hours
Total distance = 216 hours
Total speed = x+y = x+22+x
Substituting this parameters into the formula given to get x we will have;
x+22+x = 216/2.25
2x+22 = 96
2x = 96-22
2x = 74
x = 74/2
x = 37
Hence the speed of Frank is 37miles per hour while that of gregory is 37+22 = 59miles/hour
* The American Diabetes Association estimates that 8.3% of people in the
United States have diabetes. Suppose that a medical lab has developed
a simple diagnostic test for diabetes that is 98% accurate for people who
have the disease and 95% accurate for people who do not have it. The
medical lab gives the test to a randomly selected person. What is the
probability that the diagnosis is correct? Explain each step.
Answer:
The probability that the diagnosis is correct is 0.95249.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the American Diabetes Association estimates that 8.3% of people in the United States have diabetes.
Suppose that a medical lab has developed a simple diagnostic test for diabetes that is 98% accurate for people who have the disease and 95% accurate for people who do not have it.
Let the probability that people in the United States have diabetes = P(D) = 0.083.
So, the probability that people in the United States do not have diabetes = P(D') = 1 - P(D) = 1 - 0.083 = 0.917
Also, let A = event that the diagnostic test is accurate
So, the probability that a simple diagnostic test for diabetes is accurate for people who have the disease = P(A/D) = 0.98
And the probability that a simple diagnostic test for diabetes is accurate for people who do not have the disease = P(A/D') = 0.95
Now, the probability that the diagnosis is correct is given by;
Probability = P(D) [tex]\times[/tex] P(A/D) + P(D') [tex]\times[/tex] P(A/D')
= (0.083 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.98) + (0.917 [tex]\times[/tex]0.95)
= 0.08134 + 0.87115
= 0.95249
Hence, the probability that the diagnosis is correct is 0.95249.
A video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week. This week the list includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 dramas, and 2 mysteries. The store manager removes a copy of each of the 15 movies from the shelf, then randomly selects 3 of the 15 to show on the display monitors in the store. What is the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie?
Answer:
32/1125Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.
Probability = Expected outcome of event/Total outcome.
If a video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week, the total outcome is 15.
If the list for the week includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 dramas, and 2 mysteries and the store manager removes a copy of each of the 15 movies from the shelf, then randomly selects 3 of the 15 to show on the display monitors in the store, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be calculated as shown;
Probability of selecting 2 comedies = 4/15*4/15 = 16/225 (Note that the expected outcome in this case is 4).
Probability of selecting 1 action movie = 6/15 = 2/5
Hence, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be equivalent to 16/225*2/5 = 32/1125
Note that the rented movies will have to be returned hence reason for the replacement.
A number is chosen at random from 1 to 10. Find
the probability of selecting 4 or a factor of 6.
Step by step.
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The possible outcomes are
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Factors of 6 are 1,2,3,6
or a 4
1,2,3,4,6 are the outcomes we want
There are 5 "good" outcomes
P( 4 or a factor of 6) = "good" outcomes/ total
= 5/10
=1/2
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
There are total 10 outcomes.
[tex]1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10[/tex]
The probability of selecting 4 is 1 outcome out of total 10 outcomes.
Factors of 6 are [tex]1,2,3,6[/tex].
These are 4 outcomes out of total 10 outcomes.
The probability of selecting 4 or a factor of 6 is:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{10} +\frac{4}{10} =\frac{5}{10} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
