Answer:

a.  1-step transition matrix is be expressed as:

[tex]P= \left[\begin{array}{cc}0.75&0.25\\0.45&0.55\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

b. The probability that he will be in City A after two trips given that he is in City B  = 0.585

c. After many trips, the probability that he will be in city B = 0.3571

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

For each trip, if the driver is in city A, the probability that he has to drive passengers to city B is 0.25

If he is in city B, the probability that he has to drive passengers to city A is 0.45.

The objectives are to calculate the following :

a. What is the 1-step transition matrix?

To  determine the 1 -step transition matrix

Let the State ∝ and State β denotes the Uber Driver providing service in City A and City B respectively.

∴  The transition probability from state ∝ to state β is 0.25.

The transition probability from state ∝ to state ∝ is 1- 0.25 = 0.75

The transition probability from state β to state ∝ is 0.45. The transition probability from state β to state β is 1 - 0.45 = 0.55

Hence; 1-step transition matrix is be expressed as:

[tex]P= \left[\begin{array}{cc}0.75&0.25\\0.45&0.55\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

b. Suppose he is in city B, what is the probability he will be in city A after two trips?

Consider [tex]Y_n[/tex] = ∝ or β  to represent the Uber driver is in City A or City B respectively.

∴ The probability that he will be in City A after two trips given that he is in City B

=[tex]P(Y_0 = 2, Y_2 = 1 , Y_3 = 1) + P(Y_0 = 2, Y_2 = 2 , Y_3 = 1)[/tex]

= 0.45 × 0.75 + 0.55 × 0.45

= 0.3375 + 0.2475

= 0.585

c. After many trips between the two cities, what is the probability he will be in city B?

Assuming that Ф = [ p  q ] to represent the long run proportion of time that Uber driver is in City A or City B respectively.

Then, ФP = Ф  , also  p+q = 1  , q = 1 - p  and p = 1 - q

∴

[tex][ p\ \ \ q ] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}0.75&0.25\\0.45&0.55\\\end{array}\right] [ p\ \ \ q ][/tex]

0.75p + 0.45q = q

-0.25p + 0.45q = 0

since p = 1- q

-0.25(1 - q) + 0.45q = 0    

-0.25 + 0.25 q + 0.45q = 0

0.7q = 0.25

q = [tex]\dfrac{0.25} {0.7 }[/tex]

q =  0.3571

After many trips, the probability that he will be in city B = 0.3571

Answer:

Abel receives $60, and Cedric receives $120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Abel's share = A

Let Cedric's share = C

we are given the following

A + C = 180  - - - - - (1)   (Abel and Cedric will share a total of $180)

[tex]A = \frac{C}{2}\ - - - - - - - (2)[/tex] (Abel will receive half as much as Cedric. )

from equation 2:

[tex]A = \frac{C}{2}\\ C = 2A\ - - - - - - (3)[/tex]

putting this value of C in eqn (3) into eqn (1)

A + (2A) = 180

3A = 180

∴ A = 180 ÷ 3 = 60

to find C, let us replace the value of A in eqn (3) with 60

C = 2A - - - - (3)

C = 2 × 60

C = 120

Therefore, Abel receives $60, and Cedric receives $120

Thus, the required computed upper control limit is

UCL=3.76*1.864=7.00864.

Answer:

x = 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

So when I learned it we called it the exterior angle theorem not the angle sum theorem but here goes.

Since exterior angle = 110 Degrees,

--> The Inner 2 angles's sum = 110 Degrees

so, 70 + 2x = 110

=> 2x = 40

x = 20

x = 20°

Answer:

[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]

Recursive: [tex]a_{n} = a_{n-1} - 6[/tex]

Required

Determine the formula

Substitute 2 for n to determine [tex]a_2[/tex]

[tex]a_{2} = a_{2-1} - 6[/tex]

[tex]a_{2} = a_{1} - 6[/tex]

Substitute [tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]

[tex]a_2 = 8 - 6[/tex]

[tex]a_2 = 2[/tex]

Next is to determine the common difference, d;

[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]

[tex]d = 2 - 8[/tex]

[tex]d = -6[/tex]

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is calculated as

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]

Substitute [tex]a_1 = 8[/tex] and [tex]d = -6[/tex]

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]

[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]

Hence, the nth term of the sequence can be calculated using[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]

Answer: 0.129

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]\overline{X}[/tex] denotes a random variable that represents the mean weight of babies born.

Population mean : [tex]\mu= \text{3316 grams,}[/tex]

Standard deviation: [tex]\text{324 grams}[/tex]

Sample size = 83

Now, the probability that the mean weight of the sample babies would differ from the population mean by greater than 54 grams will be :

[tex]P(|\mu-\overline{X}|>54)=1-P(\dfrac{-54}{\dfrac{324}{\sqrt{83}}}<\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\dfrac{-54}{\dfrac{324}{\sqrt{83}}})\\\\=1-[P(-1.518<Z<1.518)\ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}]\\\\=1-[P(Z<1.518)-P(z<-1.518)]\\\\=1-[P(Z<1.518)-(1-P(z<1.518))]\\\\=1-[2P(Z<1.518)-1]=2-2P(Z<1.518)\\\\=2-2(0.9355)\ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\=0.129[/tex]

hence, the required probability =  0.129

Answer:

Matched or paired data

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics the different types of study included experimental and observational with the matched or paired data.

The observational study is one in which there is no alteration in the obseravtions or any change. It is purely based on observations.

The experimental study is one in which some experiment or change is brought about to see the effects of the experiment and the results are recorded as before and after treatment etc.

The matched or paired study is one in which two or more groups are simultaneously observed , recorded to find the difference between them or other parameters which maybe useful for the differences or similarities.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we can notice that the yo-yo crosses five positions: A,B,C,D and E.

The path created by the yo-yo has a parabolic form.

● In the area C, the yoyo crosses the vertex in wich the rate of change equals 0.

●In A the parabola decreases dramatically

● In B, the parabola is decreasing but slower than A.

● In D, the parabola is increasing in a fast way

● In E, the parabola is increasing faster than D.

● In the first half of C, the parabola is decreasing slower than B and A.

● At the vertex, the parabola has a null rate of change.

● In the second half of C, the parabola is increasing but slower than D and E.

So we deduce that C has the slowest rate of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

[tex]\text{Critical Region} = z<-1.96\ \text{or}\ z>1.96[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A test for the difference between two population means is to be performed.

As the population variances are known, the z-test will be used.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: μ₁ = μ₂ vs. Hₐ: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

Assume that the significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

The critical region can be defined as follows:

The critical value of z for α = 0.05 is:

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025} =-1.96\\\\z_{1-\alpha/2}=z_{1-0.05/2}=z_{0.975} =1.96[/tex]

Use a z-table.

[tex]\text{Critical Region} = z<-1.96\ \text{or}\ z>1.96[/tex]

Answer:

20.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that hours (h) varies inversely with age (a) then the equation relating them is

h = [tex]\frac{k}{a}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition h = 52 when a = 20, thus

52 = [tex]\frac{k}{20}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 20 )

1040 = k

h = [tex]\frac{1040}{a}[/tex] ← equation of variation

When a = 50, then

h = [tex]\frac{1040}{50}[/tex] = 20.8 hours

Answer: I just took the test and it is D

Answer: approximately 10.8 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a square, where each side measures approx. 4.25 in

Now we know that 1in ≈ 2.54 cm

Then, in 4.25 in, we have 4.25 times 1 inch, so we have 4.25 times the length of 2.54 cm

So the approximate measure of the sides in centimeters is:

4.25*(2.54)cm = 10.8 cm

So we have that each side measures approximately 10.8 centimeters

Answer:

C. Graph C

Step-by-step explanation:

In a scatter plot, a positive correlation coefficient suggests that as one variable increases the other increases as well, or as one decreases, the other decreases.

Also, the more clustered the data points are along the line of best fit, the higher the value of the coefficient, whether positive or negative.

Graph C shows a positive correlation because as the variable on the x-axis increases, the variable on the y-axis also increases. The data points are more clustered along the line if best fit, if we draw one. This suggest a positive correlation coefficient (r) as strong as 0.75.

Graph C has a correlation coefficient, r, that is closer to 0.75.

Answer:

14/20 or .7 or 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of cards: 20

Number of Red cards: 6

The leftover cards: 20 -6 = 14

The probability of not getting a red = 14/20

14/20 as a decimal = 14/20 = 70/100 = .7

14/20 as a percent = 14/20 = 70/100 = 70%

Answer:

positively skewed to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the central tendency is a profound way to describe the mean, median and mode. The measure of central tendency indicates where the center of distribution tends to be. The measure of central tendency provide a validity and answers whether the scores are high or generally low.

In this measure,The mean is usually pulled to the tail. The skewed is determined by where the tail goes, to the right side , it is positively skewed  and to the left side , it is known as negatively skewed distribution.

Given that:

In a frequency of distribution of 290 scores,

the mean  = 99

the median = 86

One would expect this distribution to be; positively skewed to the right  since the mean value is greater than the median value.

Answer:

a) What is the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap?

$10.99

b) What is the cost of one order of spiced potatoes?

$4.99

c) If x denotes the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap and y denotes the cost of an order of spiced potatoes, what are the equations needed to solve this problem?

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap and y denotes the cost of an order of spiced potatoes,

Cost of a chicken sharwarma wrap = x

Cost of an order of spiced potatoes = y

Ms. Ironperson ordered 3 chicken shawarma wraps and 2 orders of spiced potatoes for a total bill of $42.95.

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

Mr. Thoro ordered 5 chicken shawarma wraps and 4 orders of spiced potatoes for a total bill of $74.91.

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2

Hence, the Equations needed to solve the question is:

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2

We use Elimination method to solve for this.

Multiply Equation 1 by coefficient of x in Equation 2

Equation 2 by coefficient of x in Equation 1

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1 × 5

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2 × 3

15x + 10y = 214.75..............Equation 3

15x + 12y = 224.73..............Equation 4

Subtract Equation 3 from Equation 4

2y = 9.98

y = 9.98/2

y = 4.99

Therefore, y = Cost of an order of spiced potatoes = $4.99

Subtitute 4.99 for y in Equation 1

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

3x +2(4.99) = 42.95

3x + 9.98 = 42.95

3x = 42.95 - 9.98

3x = 32.97

x = 32.97/3

x = 10.99

x = Cost of a chicken sharwarma wrap = $10.99

Therefore,

The cost of a chicken sharwarma wrap = $10.99

The cost of an order of spiced potatoes = $4.99

Answer:

b=2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

using sine rule,,,

Step-by-step explanation:

So for this problem, we need the missing angle A. From there, we can use the law of sines to compute length of b.

So the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180. With that in mind, we can make an equation to fine the measure of angle A.

53 + 80 + A = 180

133 + A = 180

A = 47

Now that we have the angle of A, we can use the law of sines to fine the length of b.

b / sin(B) = a / sin(A)

b = sin(B) * a / sin(A)

b = sin(80) * 2 / sin(47)

b = 2.693

Now round that to the nearest tenth to get

b = 2.7

Cheers.

[tex]x=10[/tex]

The value of x is 10.

We have a circle and inside it two chords MY and NT intersect at point H.

We have to find the value of x in the figure.

According to the intersecting chord theorem, when two chords say AB and CD intersect at point O, then

AO x OB = CO x OD

Applying the chord intersecting theorem to the figure in the question, we get -

MH x HY = NH x HT

12 x 20 = (x+20) x 8

240 = 8x + 160

8x = 80

x = 10

Hence the value of x is 10.
