in a village in hawaii, about 80% of the residents are of hawaiian ancestry. Let n be the number of people you meet until you encounter the 1st person of hawaiian ancestry in the village. write a formula for the probability distribution

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The formula for the probability distribution is:

P(X = n) = q^(n - 1)p

= [0.2^(n - 1)]0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric probability distribution.

The probability of success p = 80% = 0.8

The probability of failure is q = 1 - p = 0.2

The formula is:

P(X = n) = q^(n - 1)p

= [0.2^(n - 1)]0.8

Which best describes the relationship between the lines with equations -36x + 8y = 16 and
-9x + 2y = 4?

Answers

Hi there! :)

Answer:

The lines are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by converting each equation into its simplest form in slope-intercept form:

-36x + 8y = 16

Move the "x" variable to the right side of the equation:

8y = 36x + 16

Divide all terms by 8:

y = 36/8x + 16/8

y = 9/2x + 2

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

-9x + 2y = 4

Move "x" variable:

2y = 9x + 4

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 9/2x + 2

Both of the equations are equivalent, meaning both of the lines are the same.

How do I solve these equations:
sin(2θ) + sin θ = 0
sin(2θ) = sqrt 3 cos θ

for intervals 0=< θ < 2pi

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

sin(2θ)+sinθ=0

We know that

sin(2θ)=2 sinθ x cosθ

Therefore

2 sinθ x cosθ + sinθ=0

sinθ(2 cosθ+1)=0

sinθ= 0

θ=0

2 cosθ+1=0

cosθ= - 1/2

θ=120°

_______________________________________________________

[tex]sin 2\theta=\sqrt{3cos\theta}[/tex]

By squaring both sides

[tex]sin^2 2\theta={3cos\theta}[/tex]

4 sin²θ x cos²θ=3 cosθ

4 sin²θ x cos²θ - 3 cosθ=0

cos θ = 0

θ= 90°

4 sin²θ=3

θ=60°

If you conducting a test for statistical study and you got outcome with the likelihood of 0.005. Please evaluate outcome.

Answers

Here is the complete question:

a. Statistically significant at 0.01

b. Not statistically significant

Answer:

The test is significant

Step-by-step explanation:

When a p value is smaller than or less than alpha we say it is statistically significant.

We are testing the p value or likelihood of 0005 against a significant level of 0.01

P value = 0.005 < 0.01

0.005 is less than 0.01 which shows the test to be significant.

The decision rule would be to reject the null hypothesis and say the result is statistically significant.

There are 8 books needing re-shelving in a library where 65% of the library's collection consists of reference books. Let X be the number of reference books a student helper re-shelves out of the 8 on her cart. a) What is the probability that all 8 of them are reference books

Answers

Answer:

0.0319

Step-by-step explanation:

To approximate this probability, we shall be using the Bernoulli approximation of the Binomial distribution.

Let p = probability of selecting a reference book = 65% = 0.65

Let q = probability of selecting other books= 1-p = 1-0.65 = 0.35

Now, we want to find the probability that all of these 8 books to be re-shelved are reference book.

We set up the probability as follows;

P(X = 8) = 8C8 •p^8•q^0

P(X = 8) = 1 * (0.65)^8 * (0.35)^0

P(X = 8) = 0.031864481289 which is 0.0319 to 4 decimal places

A multiple regression model involves 5 independent variables and a sample of 10 data points. If we want to test the validity of the model at the 5% significance level, the critical value is:

Answers

Answer:

The critical value is 6.26.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that there are 5 independent variables involved in a multiple regression model and the sample consist of 10 data points.

The critical value of F to test the significance of the model is:

[tex]\text{Critical Value}=F_{\alpha, (k, n-k-1)}[/tex]

Here,

k = number of independent variables

n = number of observations.

Then the critical value is:

[tex]\text{Critical Value}=F_{\alpha, (k, n-k-1)}[/tex]

                      [tex]=F_{\alpha, (5, 10-5-1)}\\=F_{0.05,(5, 4)}\\=6.2561\\\approx 6.26[/tex]

*Use a F-table.

Thus, the critical value is 6.26.

Answer:

Option (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of exterior angle of a triangle,

"Exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles."

In the triangle ABC,

∠ACD is an exterior angle and ∠BAC and ∠ABC are the opposite interior angles.

m∠ACD = m∠BAC + m∠ABC

95° = m∠BAC + m∠ABC

Therefore, Option (4) will be the correct option.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

the null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 122[/tex]

the alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_a : \mu \ne 122[/tex]

The test statistics is  [tex]t = - 1.761[/tex]

The p-value is  [tex]p = P(Z < t ) = 0.039119[/tex]

so

    [tex]p \ge 0.01[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 122[/tex]

     The sample size is  n=  38

    The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 116 \ feet[/tex]

     The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 21[/tex]

     

Generally the null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 122[/tex]

                the alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_a : \mu \ne 122[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]t = \frac { \= x - \mu }{\frac{ \sigma }{ \sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]t = \frac { 116 - 122 }{\frac{ 21 }{ \sqrt{ 38} } }[/tex]

         [tex]t = - 1.761[/tex]

The p-value is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p = P(Z < t )[/tex]

From the z- table  

     [tex]p = P(Z < t ) = 0.039119[/tex]

In recent years, the interest rates on home mortgages have declined to less than 6%. However, a
recent study shows that the rate charged on credit card debt is more than 14%. A sample of 10 credit
cards showed that the mean rate charged is 15.64% with a standard deviation of 1.561%. At 1% level
of significance, is it reasonable to conclude the mean rate charged is greater than 14%?

Answers

Answer:

Yes it is reasonable to conclude the mean rate charged is greater than 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = 0.14[/tex]

    The sample size is  [tex]n = 10[/tex]

    The  sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 0.1564[/tex]

     The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.01561[/tex]

     The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

The null hypothesis is    [tex]H_o: \mu = 0.14[/tex]

The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 0.14[/tex]

 Generally the test statistic is mathematically represented as

              [tex]t = \frac{ \= x - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

substituting values

              [tex]t = \frac{ 0.1564 - 0.14 }{ \frac{0.01561 }{\sqrt{10} } }[/tex]

              [tex]t = 3.322[/tex]

Now the p-value obtained from the z-table is

        [tex]p-value = P(t > 3.322) = 0.00044687[/tex]

Since the [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex] then we reject the null hypothesis, hence we can conclude that  the mean rate charged is greater than 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

If I chose a number uniformly from the integers from 1 to 25, calculate the conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18.

Answers

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

If I choose a number from the integers 1 to 25, the total number of integers I can pick is the total outcome which is 25. n(U) = 25

Let the probability that the number chosen at random is a multiple of  6 be P(A) and the probability that the number chosen at random is is larger than 18 be P(B)

P(A) = P(multiple of 6)

P(B) = P(number larger than 18)

A = {6, 12, 18, 24}

B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}

The conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is expressed as P(A|B).

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

Since probability = expected outcome/total outcome

A∩B = {24}

n(A∩B) = 1

P(A∩B) = n(A∩B)/n(U)

P(A∩B) = 1/25

Given B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}.

n(B) = 7

p(B) = n(B)/n(U)

p(B) = 7/25

Since P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

P(A|B) = (1/25)/(7/24)

P(A|B) = 1/25*25/7

P(A|B) = 1/7

Hence the conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is 1/7

musah stands at the center of a rectangular field . He first takes 50 steps north, then 25 step west and finally 50 steps on a bearing of 315°. How far west and how far north is Musah final point from the center?

Answers

Answer:

85.36 far north from the center

10.36 far east from the center

Step-by-step explanation:

The extra direction taken in the north side is x

X/sin(360-315)=50/sin 90

Sin 90= 1

X/sin 45= 50

X= sin45 *50

X= 0.7071*50

X= 35.355 steps

X= 35.36

Then the west direction traveled

West =√(50² - 35.355²)

West = √(2500-1249.6225)

West= √1250.3775

West= 35.36 steps

But this was taken in an opposite west direction

From the center

He is 35.36 +50

= 85.36 far north from the center

And

25-35.36=-10.36

10.36 far east from the center

Arranging them in ascending order gives

12,18,18,20,23,24,24,25,25,29,31,43,43,43,53,53,65,78

Lower quartile= (N+1)*1/4

Lower quartile= (18+1)/4

Lower quartile= 19/4

Lower quartile= 4.75

Middle quartile= (N+1)*2/4

Middle quartile= (18+1)*2/4

Middle quartile= (19)*2/4

Middle quartile= 9.5

Upper quartile= (N+1)*3/4

Upper quartile= (18+1)*3/4

Upper quartile= (19)*3/4

Upper quartile= 14.25

Answers

There are many examples to pick from, one is

point = location on map

line = straight road between two locations (aka two points)

plane = flat ground (the ground cannot have any hills or valleys)

First, let's write some useful definitions:

Point: it is an entity that has a location in a given space or plane, and do not have any surface nor measure.

Line: if we have two points, we can define a line as a straight, infinite ray that connects them. Still does not have a surface

Plane: We can define a plane as a line and a point outside of it, here appears the concept of the surface.

So, the easier one is a plane, a sheet of paper could be a good representation of a plane. And in the same way that a sheet of paper can bend in different ways, also do the planes.

For the line, we could use a really straight wire.

Finally, the point, which is the hardest one to describe (notice that we used points to describe the other two, lines, and planes) so here we could choose something small, that has near to no surface and that also has a location in the space. An example of this could be an electron or any other elemental particle.
