A venture capital company feels that the rate of return (X) on a proposed investment is approximately normally distributed with mean 30% and standard deviation 10%.
(a) Find the probability that the return will exceed 55%.
(b) Find the probability that the return will be less than 25%
(c) What is the expected value of the return?
(d) Find the 75th percentile of returns.
Answer:
a) 0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the return will exceed 55%.
b) 0.3085 = 30.85% probability that the return will be less than 25%
c) 30%.
d) The 75th percentile of returns is 36.75%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean 30% and standard deviation 10%.
This means that [tex]\mu = 30, \sigma = 10[/tex]
(a) Find the probability that the return will exceed 55%.
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 55. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{55 - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9938
1 - 0.9938 = 0.0062
0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the return will exceed 55%.
(b) Find the probability that the return will be less than 25%
p-value of Z when X = 25. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{25 - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3085
0.3085 = 30.85% probability that the return will be less than 25%.
(c) What is the expected value of the return?
The mean, that is, 30%.
(d) Find the 75th percentile of returns.
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]X - 30 = 0.675*10[/tex]
[tex]X = 36.75[/tex]
The 75th percentile of returns is 36.75%.

Step-by-step explanation:
A tree cast a shadow of 30m long and a 2m stick casts one that is 3m long. As show in the below diagram how tall is the tree?
Answer:
20 mStep-by-step explanation:
We have similar triangles here.
BC║DE, AB║AD and AC║AE ⇒ ΔADE ~ ΔABCThe ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is same:
BC/DE = AC/AEBC / 2 = 30/3BC / 2 = 10BC = 2*10BC = 20 mTake the similar triangles,
→ ∆ADE ≈ ∆ABC
Now we can find,
The height of the tree in meters,
→ BC/DE = AC/AE
In this equation BC is the height of tree,
→ BC/2 = 30/3
→ BC/2 = 10
→ BC = 10 × 2
→ BC = 20
Hence, the height of the tree is 20 m.
Which of the following numbers are less than -0.65? Select all that apply.
-0.99
-4/5
-1/6
NEXT QUESTION
Answer -0.99 and -4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/5 is equal to -0.8
Both -0.8 and 0.99 are to the left of -0.65, which is why they're less than 0.65.
1/6 = -0.16
Since -0.16 is to the right of -0.65 it is more than, not less
My reason:
As you go rightward, you increase the numbers by 1, which is why the numbers closer to the right are bigger than the numbers closer to the left.

Find the volume of the figure. Express answers in terms of t, then round to the nearest whole number
Please help :)
Answer:
729π ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying,
Volume of a cone
V = πr²h/3.............. Equation 1
Where r = radius of the base, h = height, π = pie
From the question,
Given: r = 9 ft, h = 27 ft
Substitite these values into equation 1
V = π(9²)(27)/3
V = 729π ft³
Hence the volume of the figure in terms of π is 729π ft³

The formula for centripetal acceleration, a, is given by this formula, where v is the velocity of the object and r is the object’s distance from the center of the circular path:
A= V2/R
Solve the formula for r.
Answer:r=v^2/A
Step-by-step explanation: To solve for r means you have to isolate r on one side and put all the other terms on the other. To get r out from under the fraction, multiply both sides by r. This leaves:
A*r=v^2 so to isolate r, divide by A and get:
r=v^2/A.

An equilateral triangle has equal angle measure. ∆DEF is an equilateral triangle.
Since the sum of a triangle is 180°, therefore, each angle in ∆DEF = 60°
m<D = 60°

Z-score:
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Andy 70578 60000 8200
This means that [tex]X = 70578, \mu = 60000, \sigma = 8200[/tex]
What is the z-score of Andy's salary?
This is Z, so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{70578 - 60000}{8200}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.29[/tex]
So the correct answer is given by option c.

Answer:
Hello good evening friend
A license plate consists of a letter, followed by three numbers, followed by another
letter. Due to possible confusion, the letters I and O are not used. Repetition is not
allowed.
How many different license plates are possible?
This is one single number that's slightly smaller than 400 thousand.
======================================================
Explanation:
There are 26 letters in the english alphabet. We don't use letters i or o, so we have 26-2 = 24 choices for that first slot.
Then we have 10 choices for the second slot because there are 10 single digits 0 (zero) through 9.
After making the selection for the second slot, we have 10-1 = 9 choices left for the third slot. The fourth slot has 10-2 = 8 digits to pick from. The subtraction occurs because we cannot reuse the digits.
Finally, the last slot will be a letter. We have 24-1 = 23 letters left to pick from.
Overall, we have 24*10*9*8*23 = 397,440 different license plates possible.
--------------------
Extra info (optional section)
You may be wondering "why do we multiply those values?". Well consider a simple example of having only 2 slots instead of 5.
Let's say the first slot is a letter A to Z, excluding letters i and o. The second slot will be the digit from 0 through 9.
If you make a table with 24 rows and 10 columns, then you'll have 24*10 = 240 cells overall. Notice the multiplication here. The 24 rows represent each letter, and the 10 columns are the digit numeric digits.
Each inner cell is a different two character license plate. For example A5 is one such plate. This idea can be extended to have 5 characters.

An automatic machine inserts mixed vegetables into a plastic bag. Past experience revealed that some packages were underweight and some were overweight, but most of them had satisfactory weight.
Weight % of Total Underweight 2.5 Satisfactory 90.0 Overweight 7.5a) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight?b) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory?
Answer:
a) 0.000016 = 0.0016% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight.
b) 0.729 = 72.9% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory
Step-by-step explanation:
The condition of the bags in the sample is independent of the other bags, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used 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.
a) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight?
2.5% are overweight, which means that [tex]p = 0.025[/tex]
3 bags means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
This probability is P(X = 3). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.025)^{3}.(0.975)^{0} = 0.000016[/tex]
0.000016 = 0.0016% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight.
b) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory?
90% are satisfactory, which means that [tex]p = 0.9[/tex]
3 bags means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
This probability is P(X = 3). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.9)^{3}.(0.1)^{0} = 0.729[/tex]
0.729 = 72.9% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory

You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck. Find the probability that you are dealt a king or a red card.
Answer:
7/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Half the deck is red so there are 26 reds.
There are 4 kings but we already counted two of these in the 26.
So there are 26+2 red or king cards total.
The probability of selecting a king or red is 28/52.
This can be reduced by dividing top and bottom by 4: 7/13.

A researcher wishes to conduct a study of the color preferences of new car buyers. Suppose that 50% of this population prefers the color green. If 14 buyers are randomly selected, what is the probability that exactly 12 buyers would prefer green
Answer:
The probability that exactly 12 buyers would prefer green
=0.00555
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
p=50%=50/100=0.50
n=14
We have to find the probability that exactly 12 buyers would prefer green.
q=1-p
q=1-0.50=0.50
Using binomial distribution formula
[tex]P(X=x)=nC_r p^r q^{n-r}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=14C_{12}(0.50)^{12}(0.50)^{14-12}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=14C_{12}(0.50)^{12}(0.50)^2[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=14C_{12}(0.50)^{14}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=\frac{14!}{12!2!}(0.50)^{14}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=\frac{14\times 13\times 12!}{12!2\times 1}(0.50)^{14}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=91\cdot (0.50)^{14}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=12)=0.00555[/tex]
Hence, the probability that exactly 12 buyers would prefer green
=0.00555
Let Y1 and Y2 denote the proportions of time (out of one workday) during which employees I and II, respectively, perform their assigned tasks. The joint relative frequency behavior of Y1 and Y2 is modeled by the density function.
f (y 1,y2)=y 1+y 2 o<=y 1<=1, 0<=y2<=1(0 elsewhere)
a. Find P (Y1< 1/2,y2>1/4)
b. Find P(Y 1+Y2<=1)
Are Y1 and Y2 independent?
(a) The region Y₁ < 1/2 and Y₂ > 1/4 corresponds to the rectangle,
{(y₁, y₂) : 0 ≤ y₁ < 1/2 and 1/4 < y₂ ≤ 1}
Integrate the joint density over this region:
[tex]P\left(Y_1<\dfrac12,Y_2>\dfrac14\right) = \displaystyle\int_0^{\frac12}\int_{\frac14}^1 (y_1+y_2)\,\mathrm dy_2\,\mathrm dy_1 = \boxed{\dfrac{21}{64}}[/tex]
(b) The line Y₁ + Y₂ = 1 cuts the support in half into a triangular region,
{(y₁, y₂) : 0 ≤ y₁ < 1 and 0 < y₂ ≤ 1 - y₁}
Integrate to get the probability:
[tex]P(Y_1+Y_2\le1) = \displaystyle\int_0^1\int_0^{1-y_1}(y_1+y_2)\,\mathrm dy_2\,\mathrm dy_1 = \boxed{\dfrac13}[/tex]
Y₁ and Y₂ are not independent because
P(Y₁ = y₁, Y₂ = y₂) ≠ P(Y₁ = y₁) P(Y₂ = y₂)
To see this, compute the marginal densities of Y₁ and Y₂.
[tex]P(Y_1=y_1) = \displaystyle\int_0^1 f(y_1,y_2)\,\mathrm dy_2 = \begin{cases}\frac{2y_1+1}2&\text{if }0\le y_1\le1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]
[tex]P(Y_2=y_2) = \displaystyle\int_0^1 f(y_1,y_2)\,\mathrm dy_1 = \begin{cases}\frac{2y_2+1}2&\text{if }0\le y_2\le1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]
[tex]\implies P(Y_1=y_1)P(Y_2=y_2) = \begin{cases}\frac{(2y_1+1)(2y_2_1)}4&\text{if }0\le y_1\le1,0\ley_2\le1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]
but this clearly does not match the joint density.

The measure of angle QSR is 68 degrees.
What is substitution?Substitution means putting numbers in place of letters to calculate the value of an expression.
According to the given question.
m ∠TSQ = 15x
m ∠TSR = 173 degrees
m ∠QSR = 10x -2
Since,
m ∠TSR = m ∠TSQ + ∠QSR
Substitute the value of m ∠TSR, m ∠TSQ and m ∠QSR in the above expression.
⇒ [tex]173 = 15x + 10x - 2[/tex]
⇒ [tex]173 = 25x - 2[/tex]
⇒ [tex]175 = 25x[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x = \frac{175}{25}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x = 7[/tex]
Again, for finding the value of angle QSR substitute the value of x in 10x - 2.
Therefore,
m ∠QSR = 10(7) - 2
⇒ m ∠QSR = 70 - 2
⇒ m ∠QSR = 68 degrees
Hence, the measure of angle QSR is 68 degrees.

PLEASE may I get help, I'm so lost. It would mean a lot to me, please.
A grade school is putting on its Spring show. The theater seats 120 people. Because of the demand for tickets, the school has made the following specifications:
•The number of tickets for children will be twice as many as the number for adults.
•Full-price adult tickets will be $24; children's tickets will be $12
•At least 10 of the adult tickets will be made available to seniors aged 60 and over at 25% discount
•Total ticket sales must be at least $1,800
1)How many children's tickets will be sold? 2)How many adult tickets (full-priced and senior) will be sold?
3)How many of the adult tickets can be sold with the senior discount?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
804010 to 20, inclusiveStep-by-step explanation:
1. The various goals can be met without filling the theater. This fact means there is a range of possibilities for each of the answers. However, we take the wording, "because of the demand for tickets ..." to mean demand is high and the theater will be sold out.
Since two children's tickets will be sold for each adult ticket sold, the number of children's tickets is 2/3 of the total.
children's tickets = 2/3 × 120 = 80
__
2. The remaining 40 tickets will be adult tickets.
40 adult tickets will be sold.
__
3. The total revenue must be at least $1800. If we allow 'd' tickets to be sold at a discount, then we can find the limits on d using the inequality ...
24(40-d) +24(0.75)d +12(80) ≥ 1800 . . . . revenue from ticket sales
-6d ≥ -120 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 1920
d ≤ 20 . . . . . . . . . . divide by -6
At least 10 and at most 20 adult tickets can be sold with a discount.
("At least 10" comes from the problem requirements.)
