Answer:

x = 8.17

Step-by-step explanation:

We will be using pythagoras theorem:

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

=> [tex]4.25^{2} + x^{2} = 9.21^{2}[/tex]

=> [tex]x^{2}[/tex] = 84.8241 - 18.0625 = 66.7616

=> x = [tex]\sqrt{66.7616}[/tex] = 8.17077719.. = 8.17 (3 s.f)

Step-by-step explanation:

A game is played with the following rules. Three ordinary coins are flipped and count as a single "turn" in the game.
Each coin could land on heads or tails. After their turn a player is given a certain number of points depending on the
outcome.
•If the result is 3 heads, the player receives +4 points.
• If the result is 2 heads, the player receives +2 points.
• If the result is anything else, the player receives -1 point.
What is the expected value of the number of points a player will receive after a turn?

Answers

Answer:   0.75

=======================================================

Explanation:

H = heads

T = tails

Something like HHT means we get two heads in a row at first, followed by one tail. The order matters. Since there are 2 sides per coin, and 3 coins, this leads to 2^3 = 8 different possible ways to flip three coins.

Those 8 outcomes are:

HHHHHTHTHHTTTHHTHTTTHTTT

Again the order matters.

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

Now let's define the following events

A = event of getting three headsB = event of getting exactly two headsC = event of getting 1 head, or getting 0 heads

There's only one way to get three heads, and that's HHH. So P(A) = 1/8.

There are three ways to get exactly two heads. Those three ways are: HHT, HTH, THH. This means P(B) = 3/8.

From those two probabilities, we then know that P(C) = 4/8 = 1/2 since there are 1+3 = 4 ways to get two or more heads, leaving 8-4 = 4 ways to get the other situations.

Now let's define function notation V(A) to mean "the net value of event A occurring". It's the number of points you receive if event A happens. We are given the following info:

V(A) = 4V(B) = 2V(C) = -1

From here, multiply the probability values with their corresponding net values

P(A)*V(A) = (1/8)*(4) = 0.5P(B)*V(B) = (3/8)*(2) = 0.75P(C)*V(C) = (1/2)*(-1) = -0.5

Finally, add up those results to get the expected value: 0.5+0.75+(-0.5) = 0.75

Each time a turn happens, we expect on average to get 0.75 points

Imagine a scenario where you play the game 10,000 times. If you record the result of each turn and then compute the arithmetic mean, you should get somewhere close to 0.75; it likely wont be 0.75 exactly due to the nature of theoretical probability and empirical probability not being perfectly aligned. However, due to the law of large numbers, the two should be very close when you do a large number of trials.

Because we're dealing with averages, it is possible to get a decimal value as the answer even though the point values of events A,B,C are integers.

Remark

The ratios are certainly correct but that doesn't mean that they show similarity. SSA is a very dangerous proposition to use. Redraw triangle DEF of that DF is going to upwards to your right hand side. Make E as it was before. Why isn't this right?

It isn't right because E has gone from being an acute angle to an obtuse angle (an angle larger than 90 but less than 180).

The ratios are still true, but the angles do not match. So the whole answer is incorrect.

The mean listening time for a sample of 12 women was also 35 minutes, but the standard deviation of the sample was 12 minutes. At the 0.10 significance level, can we conclude that there is a difference in the variation in the listening times for men and women

Answers

Answer:

No ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ;

s2 = 10 ; n2 = 10 ; s1 = 12 ; n1 = 12

Hypothesis :

H0 : σ1² = σ2²

H1 : σ1² ≠ σ2²

The test statistic :

Ftest = s1² / s2² = 12² / 10² = 144 / 100 = 1.44

The Pvalue using the Pvalue from Ftest calculator :

Numerator df = 12 - 1 = 11

Denominator df = 10 - 1 = 9

Pvalue = 0.2969

At α = 0.1

If Pvalue > α ; Fail to reject H0

0.2969 > 0.1 ; Hence, we fail to reject the Null

Hence, we cannot conclude that variation exists

A bag has 6 red rocks, 1 orange rock, 4 blue rocks, 1 white rock, and 7 yellow rocks. You randomly pull a rock from the bag, keep it out and then pull out another one. What is the probability of not getting a orange and then not getting a orange?

Answers

Answer: 17/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red rocks = 6

Number of orange rock = 1

Number of blue rocks = 4

Number of white rock = 1

Number of yellow rocks = 7

Total number of rocks = 19

Probability of not getting a orange the first time will be (1 - 1/19) = 18/19.

Probability of not getting an orange the second time will be: (1 - 1/18) = 17/18

Probability of not getting an orange on both occasion will be:

= 18/19 × 17/18

= 17/19

If each serving of the stew will contain 1 4 14 pound of meat, how many servings of the stew can the club make? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Complete question :

The line plot shows the weights of packages of meat that members of a club bought. The meat will be mixed with vegetables to make stew for a club dinner. Each serving of the stew contains 1/4 pound of meat. How many servings of the stew can the club make?

Answer:

36 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

From the plot ; we take the sum of total weight of meat packages :

(5/8 * 2) + 6/8 + 1 + (9/8 * 3) + 10/8 + 11/8

10/8 + 6/8 + 8/8 + 27/8 + 10/8 + 11/8 = 72 / 8 = 9 meat packages

Each serving of meat = 1/4

Number of servings the club can make :

Total meat package / pound of meat per serving

(9 ÷ 1/4)

9 * 4/1

= 36 servings

36 hope this help
