In a survey of 300 college graduates, 53% reported that they entered a profession closely related to their college major. If 9 of those survey subjects are randomly selected with replacement for a follow-up survey, what is the probability that 3 of them entered a profession closely related to their college major

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1348 = 13.48% probability that 3 of them entered a profession closely related to their college major.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they entered a profession closely related to their college major, or they did not. The probability of a graduate entering a profession closely related to their college major is independent of other graduates. This, coupled with the fact that they are chosen with replacement, means that we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

53% reported that they entered a profession closely related to their college major.

This means that [tex]p = 0.53[/tex]

9 of those survey subjects are randomly selected

This means that [tex]n = 9[/tex]

What is the probability that 3 of them entered a profession closely related to their college major?

This is P(X = 3).

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

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{9,3}.(0.53)^{3}.(0.47)^{6} = 0.1348[/tex]

0.1348 = 13.48% probability that 3 of them entered a profession closely related to their college major.

In a triangle, JKL,< J measures 35 degrees and k is a right angle. What's the measure of l.

Answers

Answer:

55°

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 35 - 90 = 55°

Answer:

55 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

If you didn't know the measure of all of the angles in a triangle have a sum of 180

So to find a missing angle we subtract the two given angles from 180

We are given that one angle = 35 degrees

and another angle is a right angle

(a right angle measure 90 degrees)

Given this information we can find the missing angle of I

angle I = 180 - 90 - 35

180 - 90 - 35 = 55

so we can conclude that the measure of angle I is 55 degrees

The measure of an angle is 149.5°. What is the measure of its supplementary angle?

Answers

Answer:

30.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add up to 180°. You know one angle is 149.5°, so you can find the other angle.

Measure of its supplementary angle = 180° - 149.5°

                                                             = 30.5°

6) Supplementary Exercise 5.51

A consumer advocate claims that 80 percent of cable television subscribers are not satisfied with their cable service. In an attempt to justify this claim, a randomly selected sample of cable subscribers will be polled on this issue.

(a)

Suppose that the advocate's claim is true, and suppose that a random sample of five cable subscribers is selected. Assuming independence, use an appropriate formula to compute the probability that four or more subscribers in the sample are not satisfied with their service. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round final answer of p to 1 decimal place. Round other final answers to 4 decimal places.)

The answer for 6(a) is P( Xâ¥4) = P ( x = 4) + P (x = 5) = 5/4 * 0.84 * 0.21 + 5/5 * 0.85 * 0.20 = 0.737

(b)

Suppose that the advocate's claim is true, and suppose that a random sample of 25 cable subscribers is selected. Assuming independence, find each of the following: (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round final answer of p to 1 decimal place. Round other final answers to 4 decimal places.)

1.

The probability that 15 or fewer subscribers in the sample are not satisfied with their service.

The answer for 6(b)1 is P(Yâ¤15) = 1 - P( Y > 20) - X20, i = 16 P ( Y = i) = 1- 0.421 - 0.562 = 0.017

2.

The probability that more than 20 subscribers in the sample are not satisfied with their service.

The answer for 6(b)2 is

3.

The probability that between 20 and 24 (inclusive) subscribers in the sample are not satisfied with their service.

The answer for 6(b)3 is P(20 > Y < 24) = 1 - 0.421 - 0.1867 - 0.1358 - 0.0708 - 0.0236 = 0.1621

4.

The probability that exactly 24 subscribers in the sample are not satisfied with their service.

The answer for 6(b)4 is P( Y = 24) = 0.0236

(c)

Suppose that when we survey 25 randomly selected cable television subscribers, we find that 15 are actually not satisfied with their service. Using a probability you found in this exercise as the basis for your answer, do you believe the consumer advocate's claim? Explain. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

1. Alice invests $1000 at 2% interest compounded monthly over a 5 year period. Assuming no other money is deposited or withdrawn, what is the total amount of money in her account after 5 years? (Round to the nearest cent)​

Answers

Answer:

$1,105.08.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Alice invests $ 1000 at 2% interest compounded monthly over a 5 year period, assuming no other money is deposited or withdrawn, to determine what is the total amount of money in her account after 5 years, the following calculation must be performed:

X = 1,000 (1 + 0.02 / 12) ^ 5x12

X = 1,105.08

Thus, the amount of money in her account after 5 years would be $ 1,105.08.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Chandler, Jamal, Allison, and Qi are given the following problem: "In 1982, Wayne Gretsky set a record for the greatest number of hockey goals in one season with 92 goals. If a player has scored 60 goals this season and averages 2 goals per game, how many additional games must he play to break the record? ", And each student writes an inequality to represent the situation:

Chandler wrote 60 + 2g ≥ 92

Jamal wrote 60 + 2g> 92

Allison wrote 60 + 2g <92

Qi wrote 60 + 2g ≤ 92

To determine whose inequality is correct, the following calculation must be performed:

92 - 60 = 32

32/2 = 16

Chandler: 60 + 2x16 ≥ 92

Thus, Chandler wrote the correct option.

Please prove the following trigonometric identity.

[tex]\cos^2(5x)-\sin^2(5x)=\cos(10x)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to verify the trigonometric identity:

[tex]\cos^2(5x)-\sin^2(5x)=\cos(10x)[/tex]

For simplicity, we can let u = 5x. Therefore, by substitution, we acquire:

[tex]\cos^2(u)-\sin^2(u)[/tex]

Recall the double-angle identity formula(s) for cosine:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \cos(2x)&=\cos^2(x)-\sin^2(x)\\&=2\cos^2(x)-1\\&=1-2\sin^2(x)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, our identity becomes:

[tex]=\cos(2u)[/tex]

Back-substitute:

[tex]=\cos(2(5x))=\cos(10x)\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}\cos(10x)[/tex]

Hence proven.

cos²A - sin²A = cos2A, this is a general indentity where A can have any random value x/2, y/3, 1/8, 8, 9 etc.

Replacing A with 5x:

=> cos²(5x) - sin²(5x) = cos²(10x)

Moreover,

cos(A + B) = cosAcosB - sinAsinB.

When A = B,

cos(A + A) = cosAcosA - sinAsinA

cos2A = cos²A - sin²A

You can do the same with 5x.

cos(10x) = cos(5x + 5x)

cos(10x) = cos(5x)cos(5x) - sin(5x)sin(5x)

cos(10x) = cos²(5x) - sin²(5x)
