Answer:
0.0954 = 9.54% probability that the combined sample tests positive for the virus. This probability is higher than 5%, and thus, it is not unlikely for such a combined sample to test positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they test positive, or they do not. The probability of a person testing positive is independent of any other person, 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.
The probability of a randomly selected adult in one country being infected with a certain virus is 0.005.
This means that [tex]p = 0.005[/tex]
Samples from 20 people
This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]
What is the probability that the combined sample tests positive for the virus? Is it unlikely for such a combined sample to test positive?
Probability of at least one positive test, which is:
[tex]P(X geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.005)^{0}.(0.995)^{20} = 0.9046[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.9046 = 0.0954[/tex]
0.0954 = 9.54% probability that the combined sample tests positive for the virus. This probability is higher than 5%, and thus, it is not unlikely for such a combined sample to test positive.
Insurance companies need to maintain a certain amount in reserved funds in order to pay anticipated claims. The average monthly claim amount for the last 60 months for company A was $7,500,000 and the (sample) standard deviation was $1,200,000.
(a) Find a 95% upper confidence bound on the average monthly claim amount.
(b) The regulations on the reserves will be strengthened in the near future. According to the new regulations, insurance companies that do not have sufficient amount in reserve will be subject to a significant penalty. Company A wants to adjust the target reserve amount accordingly, by computing a new upper bound on the average monthly claim amount. Should the company recalculate an upper confidence bound with a higher or a lower level of confidence? Briefly explain why. Then compute a 99.95% upper confidence bound on the average monthly claim amount.
Answer:
a ) Upper bound of CI is 7803483.87
b) The new upper bound is 8039767.74
Step-by-step explanation:
From sample data:
sample size n = 60
sample mean x = 7500000
Sample standard deviation s = 1200000
a) Confidence Interval 95 % then significance level α = 5 % o α = 0.05
α/2 = 0.025 z(c) from z-table is z(c) = 1.96
CI 95 % = ( x ± z(c) * s/√n
CI 95 % = ( 7500000 ± 1.96 * 1200000/√60
CI 95 % = ( 7500000 ± 303483.87 )
CI 95 % = ( 7196516.13 ; 7803483.87)
Then upper bound of CI is 7803483.87
b) The company has to decrease the significance level equivalent to widen the confidence interval.
If CI now is 99.95 % significance level is α = 0.0005 and
α/2 = 0.00025 z(c) for that α/2 is from z-table z(c) ≈ 3.486
CI 99.95 % = ( x ± z(c)*s/√n
CI 99.95 % = 7500000 ± 3.486*1200000/ √60
CI 99.95 % = (7500000 ±539767.74)
CI 99.95 % = ( 6960232.26 ; 8039767.74)
The new upper bound is 8039767.74

1;3;5;7…(determine the value of the 19th term of the sequence)
Answer:
37
Step-by-step explanation:
fistly find how much different
3-1=2 5-3=2 7-5=2
so for the next and next value just plus two until the 19th then you will get 37
=============================================================
Explanation:
a = 1 is the first term
d = 2 is the common difference, since we add 2 to each term to get the next term.
The nth term is a+d(n-1) which becomes 1+2(n-1). That simplifies to 2n-1
The last step is to plug in n = 19 and you should get 2(19)-1 = 37

The area of a triangle is 2/5 square feet. What is the base of the triangle if the height is 6/5 feet?
24/25 feet
25/24 feet
2/3 feet
3/2 feet
Answer:
2/3 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for finding the area of a triangle is A = (B x H)/2. Or, area is equal to base times height, all divided by two. In your case, we don't know the base. If we substitute in values, we get 2/5 = (B x 6/5)/2.
Next, we have to multiply both sides by two, to cancel the "/2." That results in 4/5 = B x 6/5. Then, to isolate the variable, we have to divide both sides by 6/5. 4/5 ÷ 6/5 is 4/5 x 5/6. The fives cancel out, and we are left with 4/6.
Finally, we simplify! 4/6 simplifies to 2/3.

csc^2θ·tan^2θ - 1 = tan^2θ
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
[tex] \frac{1 + \sin y}{ \cos y} + \frac{ \cos y}{1 + \sin y} = \frac{1 + 2 \sin y + \sin^{2} y + \cos ^{2} y}{ \cos y(1 + \sin y)} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{2 + 2 \sin y}{ \cos y (1+ \sin y)} = \frac{2}{ \cos y} = 2 \sec y[/tex]
b)
[tex] \frac{ \cot x}{ \tan x + \cot x} = \frac{ \cos x}{ \sin x( \frac{ \sin x}{ \cos x} + \frac{ \cos x}{ \sin x} )} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{ \cos x}{ \frac{ \sin^{2} }{ \cos x} + \cos x } = \frac{ \cos x}{ \frac{ \sin ^{2} x + \cos^{2} x}{ \cos x} } [/tex]
[tex] = \cos ^{2} x[/tex]
c) Note that cscx = 1/sinx so
[tex] \csc^{2} \theta \tan^{2} \theta - 1= \frac{1}{ \cos^{2} \theta } - 1[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{1 - \cos^{2} \theta }{ \cos \theta} = \frac{ \sin^{2} \theta}{ \cos ^{2} \theta } = \tan^{2} \theta[/tex]

A mouse is trapped in a maze. To
find his way out, he walks 15 m,
makes a 90° left turn, walks 8 m,
makes another 90° left turn, and
walks 10 m. What is the magnitude
of the resultant vector?
Answer: Approximately 9.43 meters
The more accurate version is 9.4339811320566 but that's not exact.
This is exact magnitude is sqrt(89)
=======================================================
Explanation:
Let's draw an xy grid for this. Place the starting point at (0,0) which I'll call point A. Now let's say the mouse goes east 15 meters. That would move it to (15,0) which is marked as point B. Refer to the diagram below.
From point B, we move to C which is at (15,8). So the mouse has gone 8 meters north. It might help to turn the page so that the east direction is facing completely north, and then look to the left and you'll see "north". In other words, each 90 degree left turn is a 90 degree counterclockwise turn.
After doing another 90 degree counterclockwise turn, the mouse will move 10 meters westward. It moves from C(15,8) to D(5,8). Point D is the final position of the mouse.
-----------------------
A(0,0) was the initial position and D(5,8) is the final position
The vector v is
v = <5,8>
This is because we basically are saying "the mouse ultimately moved 5 meters east and 8 meters north" when going from start to finish. We're ignoring the intermediate stops along the way.
------------------------
Recall that for any vector of the form
v = <a,b>
the magnitude of that vector is
|v| = sqrt(a^2+b^2)
this is the length of the vector based on the pythagorean theorem.
Applying this formula gets us
|v| = sqrt(5^2+8^2)
|v| = sqrt(89)
|v| = 9.43398 approximate
This represents the straight line distance from start to finish, where we ignore any intermediate stops. So this isn't the distance the mouse travels (since it goes from A to B, to C to D). Instead, it's the distance it would travel if it wanted to take the shortest path from A to D.

Consider the following function:
f(3) = log2(x + 3)
Which interval has the smallest average rate of change in the given function?
O (0,2
O 4,6]
O [2,4
O (6,8)
In the function f(x) = log2(x + 3)), the smallest average rate of change in the function is in the interval, (6,8)
What is a logarithmic function ?The logarithmic function is an expression which we can write as, y = logₐx, where a>0 & x>0, It is the inverse of exponential function.
Formulae for logarithmic function are,
LogAB = LogA + LogB
Logₐaᵇ = b
Given that,
A logarithmic function,
f(x) = = log2(x + 3)
Rate of change = Change in values of function/change in x
= [F(b) - F(a)]/ b-a
For the interval, (0, 2)
f(0) = Log2(0 + 3) = Log(6)
f(2) = Log2(2 + 3) = Log(10)
Rate of change = Log(10) - Log(6) /2
= 0.11
Similarly, for the intervals, (4, 6), (2, 4), (6,8)
Hence, the smallest average rate is for the interval, (6, 8)

1. Decide whether the statement below is true or false. Then fully explain why. The triangle below can b used to help with your explanation if needed.
"The sine of any acute angle is equal to the cosine of its complementary angle."[help me plzz!!]
==================================
Work Shown:
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(alpha) = MN/NP
sin(alpha) = y/z
---------
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(beta) = MN/NP
cos(beta) = y/z
----------
Both sin(alpha) and cos(beta) are equal to y/z, so that means sin(alpha) = cos(beta). This is true because alpha+beta = 90, ie the angles are complementary.
Similarly, you should find that sin(beta) and cos(alpha) are both equal to x/z, which is further proof that the statement is true.

Answer:
x = 5y = 30z = 8Step-by-step explanation:
The rhombus has several relevant properties.
The sides are all the same lengthDiagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each otherDiagonals divide the rhombus into congruent trianglesThe last of these relations can be used to find x:
7x° = 35°
x = 35°/7° = 5
The second of the relations can be used to find y:
3y° = 90°
y = 90°/3° = 30
The first of the relations can be used to find z:
10z -8 = 5z +32
5z = 40 . . . . . . . . . add 8-5z
z = 40/5 = 8
