A motel has a policy of booking as many as 150 guests in a building that holds 140. Past studies indicate that only 85% of booked guests show up for their room. Find the probability that if the motel books 150 guests, not enough seats will be available.
Answer:
0.0015 = 0.15% probability that if the motel books 150 guests, not enough seats will be available.
Step-by-step explanation:
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed 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.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex], if [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex].
150 guests booked:
This means that [tex]n = 150[/tex]
85% of booked guests show up for their room.
This means that [tex]p = 0.85[/tex]
Is the normal approximation suitable:
[tex]np = 150(0.85) = 127.5[/tex]
[tex]n(1-p) = 150(0.15) = 22.5[/tex]
Both greater than 10, so yes.
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 150*0.85 = 127.5[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{150*0.85*0.15} = 4.3732[/tex]
Find the probability that if the motel books 150 guests, not enough seats will be available.
More than 140 show up, which, using continuity correction, is [tex]P(X > 140 + 0.5) = P(X > 140.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 140.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{140.5 - 127.5}{4.3732}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.97[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.97[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9985.
1 - 0.9985 = 0.0015.
0.0015 = 0.15% probability that if the motel books 150 guests, not enough seats will be available.

1. What is an extraneous solution and what type of functions might they occur in?
2. Given a vertical asymptote and horizontal asymptote, how would you begin to find an expression for a rational function?
Answer:
1.
An extraneous solution is a root of a transformed equation that is not a root of the original equation as it was excluded from the domain of the original equation.
It emerges from the process of solving the problem as a equation.
2.I begin like:
The vertical asymptotes will occur at those values of x for which the denominator is equal to zero:
for example:
x² − 4=0
x²= 4
doing square root on both side
x = ±2
Thus, the graph will have vertical asymptotes at x = 2 and x = −2.
To find the horizontal asymptote, the degree of the numerator is one and the degree of the denominator is two.

Uche is a cartographer. He picks a scale to fit a map of India onto a page of an atlas. The page is 121212 by 121212 inches, with 0.750.750, point, 75 inch margins on all 444 sides. India measures 3{,}2143,2143, comma, 214 kilometers from north to south and 2{,}9332,9332, comma, 933 kilometers from west to east. Uche wants the longest dimension of India to fit exactly in between the margins of the page. If kkk is the number of kilometers per inch in Uche's scale, which equation best models the situation
The scale ratio of a point A to another point B is the division of the length of B by the length of A. The best equation that models the situation is: [tex]10.5k= 3214[/tex]
The page dimension is:
[tex]Length = 12[/tex]
[tex]Width = 12[/tex]
The length and the width of Uche's book are equal; this means the pages of Uche's book have the shape of a square
The margin of 0.75 on either sided means the usable dimension is:
[tex]Length = 12 - 2 * 0.75 =10.5[/tex]
The dimension of India is:
[tex]Length = 3214[/tex]
[tex]Width =2933[/tex]
The longest side in India's dimension is:
[tex]Longest = 3214[/tex]
From Uche's book, the longest dimension is:
[tex]Longest = 10.5[/tex]
So, the scale equation is:
k * longest length of Uche's book = longest side of India
This gives:
[tex]k * 10.5 =3214[/tex]
[tex]10.5k =3214[/tex]

8 meters for every 2inches what is the area of 144 meters squared
9514 1404 393
Answer:
9 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is proportional to the square of the linear scale factor. We can use this to write the proportion ...
A/(144 m²) = ((2 in)/(8 m))²
A = (144·4/64) in² = 9 in²
The area representing 144 square meters is 9 square inches.

You need to design a rectangle with a perimeter of 14.2 cm. The length must be 2.4 cm. What is the width of the
rectangle? (You might want to draw a picture.)
a) Let w = the width of the rectangle. Write the equation you would use to solve this problem.
b) Now solve your equation
* cm.
The width of the rectangle must be. Cm
Part (a)
Answer: 2(2.4+w) = 14.2--------------
Explanation:
L = 2.4 = length
W = unknown width
The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)
We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2
========================================================
Part (b)
Answer: w = 4.7--------------
Explanation:
We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)
2(2.4+w) = 14.2
2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2
4.8+2w = 14.2
2w = 14.2-4.8
2w = 9.4
w = 9.4/2
w = 4.7
The width must be 4.7 cm.

Given $f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}$, what is the smallest possible integer value for $x$ such that $f(x)$ has a real number value? Please show steps. Thank you!
(I rewrote the question without the symbols, they are the same question)
Given f(x) = {2x-6}/{x-3}, what is the smallest possible integer value for x such that f(x) has a real number value? Thank you!
===========================================================
Explanation:
The given function is
[tex]f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}[/tex]
which is the same as writing f(x) = ( sqrt(2x-6) )/(x-3)
The key for now is the square root term. Specifically, the stuff underneath. This stuff is called the radicand.
Recall that the radicand cannot be negative, or else the square root stuff will result in a complex number. Eg: [tex]\sqrt{-4} = 0+2i[/tex]
The question is basically asking: what is the smallest x such that [tex]\sqrt{2x-6}[/tex] is a real number?
Well if we made 2x-6 as small as possible, ie set it equal to 0, then we can find the answer
[tex]2x-6 = 0\\\\2x = 6\\\\x = 6/2\\\\x = 3\\\\[/tex]
I set the radicand equal to 0 because that's as small as the radicand can get (otherwise, we're dipping into negative territory).
So 2x-6 set equal to 0 leads to x = 3.
This means x = 3 produces the smallest radicand (zero) and therefore, it is the smallest allowed x value for that square root term.
But wait, if we tried x = 3 in f(x), then we get...
[tex]f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}\\\\f(3) = \frac{\sqrt{2*3-6}}{3-3}\\\\f(3) = \frac{\sqrt{0}}{0}\\\\[/tex]
which isn't good. We cannot have 0 in the denominator. Dividing by zero is not allowed. The result is undefined. It doesn't even lead to a complex number. So we'll need to bump x = 3 up to x = 4. You should find that x = 4 doesn't make the denominator 0.
----------------
In short, we found that x = 3 makes the square root as small as possible while staying a real number, but it causes a division by zero error with f(x) overall. So we bump up to x = 4 instead.
Amanda has 1 3/4yds of red ribbon and 7/8yds of green
ribbon. What is the total amount of ribbon that
Amanda has? (write answer as a fraction)
Answer:
21/8 yds or 2 5/8 yds
Step-by-step explanation:
First turn 1 3/4 yards into an improper fraction so you can add it to 7/8 yards.
1 3/4 as an improper fraction is 7/4 yds
7/4 yds = 14/8 yds
14/8 yds + 7/8 yds = 21/8 yds
So the total amount of ribbon Amanda has is 21/8 yds or 2 5/8 yds

In a class of 40 statistics majors, each one constructs a 90% confidence interval for the unknown probability p of a weighted coin landing heads. About how many of the 40 intervals will capture the value of the unknown parameter p? About how many will miss it?
Answer:
36 intervals will capture the value of the unknown parameter p, and 4 will miss it.
Step-by-step explanation:
x% confidence interval:
A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b. x% of confidence intervals capture the unknown parameter.
About how many of the 40 intervals will capture the value of the unknown parameter p?
90% of them will capture, so:
0.9*40 = 36
0.1*40 = 4
36 intervals will capture the value of the unknown parameter p, and 4 will miss it.

Is x=-2 a solution for the equation below?
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
-7+x^2-3x = 9+x-10
-7+(-2)^2-3*(-2) 9+(-2)-10
-7+4+6 9-12
3 > -3
if we substitute -2 to x, answer is not equal
Answer:
x= -2
-7 +x^2 - 3x = 9 +x - 10
-7 + (-2)^2 -3×(-2) = 9 + (-2) -10
-7 +4 +6 = 9 - 2 - 10
-7+10=9-12
