Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

30% is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of boys = 2

Total number of girls = 3

Total number of students = 5

To find:

Probability that the pianist will be a boy and the alternate will be a girl?

Solution:

Here we have to make 2 choices.

1st choice has to be boy (pianist) and 2nd choice has to be girl (alternate).

[tex]\bold{\text{Required probability }= P(\text{boy as pianist first}) \times P(\text{girl as alternate})}[/tex]

Formula for probability of an event E is given as:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]

For [tex]P(\text{boy as pianist})[/tex], number of favorable cases are 2 (total number of boys).

Total number of cases = Total number of students i.e. 5

So, [tex]P(\text{boy as pianist})[/tex] is:

[tex]P(\text{boy as pianist}) = \dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]

For [tex]P(\text{girl as alternate})[/tex], number of favorable cases are 3 (total number of girls).

Now, one boy is already chosen as pianist so Total number of cases = Total number of students left i.e. (5 - 1) = 4

[tex]P(\text{girl as alternate}) = \dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]

So, the required probability is:

[tex]\text{Required probability } = \dfrac{2}{5}\times \dfrac{3}{4} = \dfrac{3}{10} = \bold{30\%}[/tex]

If A and B are independent events with P( A) = 0.35 and P( B) = 0.55, then P( A| B) is:_________.
a. .19
b. 1.57
c. .64
d. .91

Answers

Answer:

P( A| B)= 0.35. None of the options are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are said to be independent if the occurrence of one of the events does not affect the other occurring. For example, the event of tossing two coins is an independent event since they occur simultaneously. Two events are therefore independent if the following are true.

P(A|B) = P(A)

P(B|A) = P(B)

P(A and B) = P(A)P(B)

If A and B are independent events with P( A) = 0.35 and P( B) = 0.55,

then P( A| B) is a probability of A occurring provided that B has occurred. This is known as conditional probability for an independent event.

From the condition above for independent events, P(A|B) = P(A) and since P(A) =  0.35, hence P(A|B) =0.35

4 solid cubes were made out of the same material. All four have different side lengths: 6cm, 8cm, 10cm, and 12cm. How to distribute the cubes onto two plates of a scale so the scale is balanced? Answer: A= the cube with side length 6 cm, B= the cube with side length 8 cm, C= the cube with side length 10 cm, D= the cube with side length 12 cm. On one side of the scale : , on the other side of the scale

Answers

Answer: The cube with side length of 12cm is alone in one plate, the other 3 cubes are in the other plate.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 4 cubes with side lengths of:

6cm, 8cm, 10cm and 12cm.

Now, some things you need to know:

If we want a scale to be balanced, then the mass in both plates must be the same.

The volume of a cube of side length L is:

V = L^3

And the mass of an object of density D, and volume V is:

M = D*V.

As all the cubes are of the same material, all of them have the same density, so the fact that we do not know the value of D actually does not matter here.

Then we want to forms two groups of cubes in such a way that the total volume in each plate is the same (or about the same), the volumes of the cubes are:

Cube of 6cm:

V = (6cm)^3 = 216cm^3

Cube of 8cm:

V = (8cm)^3 = 512cm^3

Cube of 10cm:

V = (10cm)^3 = 1000cm^3

cube of 12cm

V = (12cm)^3 =  1728cm^3

First, if we add the volumes of the first two cubes, we have:

V1 = 216cm^3 + 512cm^3 = 728cm^3

Now we can see that we add 1000cm^3 the volume will be equal to the volume of the larger cube, so here we can also add the cube with side length of 10cm

Then the volume of the 3 smaller cubes together is:

V1 = 216cm^3 + 512cm^3 + 1000cm^3 = 1728cm^3.

Then, if we want to have the same volume in each plate, then we need to have the 3 smaller cubes in one plate, and the larger cube in the other plate.

Use the model to show to help find the sum 0.34 plus 0.49

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The idea to use in solving this problem using the model, is to express the number of shaded boxes in fraction form.

Thus, the blue red shaded boxes has 34 boxes shaded out of 100 boxes. This represents [tex] \frac{34}{100} [/tex]. This will give us 0.34.

The other shaded boxes represents [tex] \frac{49}{100} = 0.49 [/tex].

now we are required to find the summation (total) of all values of X, Y, XY and X².

∑X = 209

∑Y = 337

∑XY = 5996

∑X² = 4081

The formular for finding b is given as:

b = n∑XY - (X)(Y) / n∑X² - (∑X)²

= 11(5996) - (209)(337) / 11(4081) - (209)²

= 65956 - 70433 / 44891 - 43681

= -4477/ 1210

= -3.7

The question asked us to find the value of b but we can  go further to find the equation of the regression line:

a = ∑Y - b∑X / n

= 337 - (-3.7)(209)/  11

=1110.3/11

= 100.94

the equation is:

Y = 100.94 - 3.7X

A researcher at the University of Washington medical school believes that energy drink consumption may increase heart rate. Suppose it is known that heart rate (in beats per minute) is normally distributed with an average of 70 bpm for adults. A random sample of 25 adults was selected and it was found that their average heartbeat was 73 bpm after energy drink consumption, with a standard deviation of 7 bpm. In order to test belief at the 10% significance level, determine P-value for the test.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean μ = 70

sample size = 25

sample mean = 73

standard deviation = 7

level of significance = 0.10

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

[tex]\mathtt{H_o : \mu = 70} \\ \\ \mathtt{H_1 : \mu > 70 }[/tex]

The z score for this statistics can be calculated by using the formula:

[tex]z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{73- 70}{\dfrac{7}{\sqrt{25}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{3}{\dfrac{7}{5}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{3 \times 5}{{7}{}}[/tex]

z = 2.143

At level of significance of 0.10

degree of freedom = n -1

degree of freedom = 25 - 1

degree of freedom = 24

The p - value from the z score at   level of significance of 0.10 and degree of freedom of 24 is:

P - value = 1 - (Z < 2.143)

P - value =  1 - 0.9839

P - value =  0.0161

Decision Rule: since P value is lesser than the level of significance, we reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion: We conclude that energy drink consumption increases heart rate.

Answer:

B = 48.7° , C = 61.3° , b = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find B we must first angle C

To find angle C we use the sine rule

That's

[tex] \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(A) } = \frac{ |c| }{ \sin(C) } [/tex]

From the question

a = 15

A = 70°

c = 14

So we have

[tex] \frac{15}{ \sin(70) } = \frac{14}{ \sin(C) } [/tex]

[tex] \sin(C) = \frac{14 \sin(7 0 ) }{15} [/tex]

[tex]C = \sin^{ - 1} ( \frac{14 \sin(70) }{15} ) [/tex]

C = 61.288

C = 61.3° to the nearest tenth

Since we've found C we can use it to find B.

Angles in a triangle add up to 180°

To find B add A and C and subtract it from 180°

That's

A + B + C = 180

B = 180 - A - C

B = 180 - 70 - 61.3

B = 48.7° to the nearest tenth

To find b we can use the sine rule

That's

[tex] \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(A) } = \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(B) } [/tex]

[tex] \frac{15}{ \sin(70) } = \frac{ |b| }{ \sin(48.7) } [/tex]

[tex] |b| = \frac{15 \sin(48.7) }{ \sin(70) } [/tex]

b = 11.9921

b = 12.0 to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer:

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI  of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).

New machine

Sample mean                  x₁ =    25

Sample variance               s₁  = 27

Sample size                       n₁  = 45

Old machine

Sample mean                    x₂ =  23  

Sample variance               s₂  = 7,56

Sample size                       n₂  = 36

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                         H₀             x₂  -  x₁  = d = 0

Alternative hypothesis             Hₐ            x₂  -  x₁  <  0

CI = 90 %  ⇒  α =  10 %     α = 0,1      z(c) = - 1,28

To calculate z(s)

z(s)  =  ( x₂  -  x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂

s₁  = 27     ⇒    s₁²  =  729

n₁  = 45    ⇒   s₁² / n₁    = 16,2

s₂  = 7,56   ⇒    s₂²  = 57,15

n₂  = 36     ⇒    s₂² / n₂  =  1,5876

√s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂  =  √ 16,2  + 1.5876    = 4,2175

z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175

z(s)  =  - 0,4742

Comparing z(s) and  z(c)

|z(s)| < | z(c)|  

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

(Enter your answers to one decimal place.) 147 153 170 172 185 181 182 185 181 170 181 167 153 145

Answers

Answer:

Mean: 169.4

Median: 171

Mode: 181

Step-by-step explanation:

I first sorted the numbers by value, least to greatest.

145 147 153 153 167 170 170 172 181 181 181 182 185 185

We can see that 181 occurs the most, 3 times, so it's the mode.

The median of this set will be the middle number(s).

When we take away 6 numbers from both sides we are left with 170 and 172, and the mean of these two numbers is 171. So the median is 171.

We can add all the numbers and divide by 14 to get the mean.

[tex]147+153+170+172+185+181+182+185+181+170+181+167+153+145=2372\\\\2372\div14\approx169.4[/tex]

What is the sum of the complex numbers −9−i−9−i and −5−i−5−i?

Answers

Answer:

The sum of the complex numbers will be - 28 - 4i

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the sum  −9−i−9−i + −5−i−5−i. Let's group like elements and simplify this expression,

−9−i−9−i + −5−i−5−i ( Group like terms )

- i - i - i - i - 9 - 9 - 5 - 5 ( Add like terms )

- i - i - i - i = - 4i, - 9 - 9 = - 18, and - 5 - 5 = - 10

- 18 - 10 = - 28 ( Substitute )

Solution : - 28 - 4i

Question: Perform the following computation with radicals. Simplify the answer.  √6 • √8

Answer:

[tex] 4\sqrt{3} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, √6 • √8, to perform the computation, we would simply evaluate the radicals and try as much as possible to leave the answer in the simplest form in radicals.

Thus,

[tex] \sqrt{6}*\sqrt{8} = \sqrt{6*8} [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{48} [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{16*3} = \sqrt{16}*\sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex] = 4\sqrt{3} [/tex]

An article contained the following observations on degree of polymerization for paper specimens for which viscosity times concentration fell in a certain middle range:

418 421 421 422 425 428 431 435 437
438 445 447 448 453 458 462 465
(c) Calculate a two-sided 95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) Note that it is plausible that the given sample observations were selected from a normal distribution and there are no outliers.

(___ , ___)



Does the interval suggest that 441 is a plausible value for true average degree of polymerization?

Yes or No


Does the interval suggest that 451 is a plausible value?

Yes or No

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Form a set of values we get

n = 17

And with the help of a calculator

μ₀ = 438,47

σ  = 14,79

Normal Distribution is :  N ( 438,47 ; 14,79 )

c)

CI = 95 % means  α = 5 %    α/2 = 2,5 %    α/2 = 0,025

and as n < 30  we should use t-student distribution with n -1 degree of freedom  df = 16.  t score for 0,025 and 16 s from t-table 2,120

By definition:

CI = [  μ₀  ±  t α/2 ; n-1 * σ/√n ]

CI = [  μ₀  ± 2,120* 14,79/√17 ]

CI = [  μ₀  ±  7,60 ]

CI = [ 438,47 ± 7,60 ]

CI = [  430,87 ; 446,07 ]

95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization is  [430.87 ; 446.07] and this interval suggest that 441 is a plausible value for true average degree of polymerization and also this interval does not suggest that 451 is a plausible value.

Given :

Sample = [ 418, 421, 421, 422, 425, 428, 431, 435, 437,  438, 445, 447, 448, 453, 458, 462, 465 ]95% confidence interval.

The total number of values given is, n = 17

Mean, [tex]\mu_0=438.47[/tex]

Standard Deviation, [tex]\sigma = 14.79[/tex]

The normal distribution is given by: N (438.47 ; 14.79)

If Cl  is 95% then [tex]\alpha[/tex] is 5% and [tex]\alpha /2[/tex] is 2.5%

[tex]\alpha /2 = 0.025[/tex]

Now, use t-statistics distribution with (n-1) degree of freedom df = 16

So, the t score for 0.025 and 16 s from t-table 2.120.

[tex]\rm Cl = [\mu_0 \pm t_{\alpha /2};(n-1)\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }][/tex]

[tex]\rm Cl = [\mu_0 \pm 2.120\times \dfrac{14.79}{\sqrt{17} }][/tex]

[tex]\rm Cl = [\mu_0 \pm 7.60][/tex]

Cl = [430.87 ; 446.07]

Yes, the interval suggests that 441 is a plausible value for true average degree of polymerization.

No, the interval does not suggest that 451 is a plausible value.
