n a history class there are 88 history majors and 88 non-history majors. 44 students are randomly selected to present a topic. What is the probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors
Answer:
0.5675 = 56.75% probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors.
Step-by-step explanation:
The students are chosen without replacement from the sample, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question. We are working also with a sample with more than 10 history majors and 10 non-history majors, which mean that the normal approximation can be used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
Combinations formula:
[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]
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal 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.
Approximation:
We have to use the mean and the standard deviation of the hypergeometric distribution, that is:
[tex]\mu = \frac{nk}{N}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{nk(N-k)(N-n)}{N^2(N-1)}}[/tex]
In this question:
88 + 88 = 176 students, which means that [tex]N = 176[/tex]
88 non-history majors, which means that [tex]k = 88[/tex]
44 students are selected, which means that [tex]n = 44[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = \frac{44*88}{176} = 22[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{44*88*(176-88)*(176-44)}{176^2(175-1)}} = 2.88[/tex]
What is the probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors?
Using continuity correction, as the hypergeometric distribution is discrete and the normal is continuous, this is [tex]P(X \geq 22 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 21.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 21.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{21.5 - 22}{2.88}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.17[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.17[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4325
1 - 0.4325 = 0.5675
0.5675 = 56.75% probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors.

Answer:
8. -2a+14
9. w=3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
8.
The distributive property states that we can multiply each component in the parenthesis separately by the number on the outside, and then add that up to get our final answer.
For -2(a-7), this means that we can multiply -2 by a and then -2 by -7 (as 2 is the number on the outside, and a and -7 are the components in the parenthesis), add them up, and get our answer. This can be expressed as
-2 * a + (-2) * (-7) = final answer
= -2 * a + 14
We know that -2 * -7 = 14 because 2 * 7 = 14, and the two negatives in multiplication cancel each other out
9.
Using the subtraction property of equality, we can isolate the variable (w) and its coefficient (-2/3) by subtracting 5, resulting in
(-2/3)w = 4-5 = -1
Next, we can use the multiplication property of equality to isolate the w. To isolate the w, we can multiply its coefficient by its reciprocal. The reciprocal is the fraction flipped over. For (-2/3), its reciprocal is (-3/2), flipping the 2 and 3. We can multiply both sides by (-3/2) to get
w = (-3/2)
To check this, we can plug (-3/2) for w in our original equation, so
(-2/3) * (-3/2) + 5 = 4
-1 + 5 = 4
4 = 4
This works!
A certificate of deposit offers a nominal interest rate of 2.5 percent annually.
If inflation is 1 percent, what is the real rate of return?
To solve this question, the real rate of return formula is used, and we apply the data given in the exercise into the formula to find the real rate of return.
Formula for the real rate of return:
[tex]R = \frac{1 + N}{1 + i} - 1[/tex]
In which N is the nomial rate and i is the inflation rate, as decimals.
A certificate of deposit offers a nominal interest rate of 2.5 percent annually.
This means that [tex]N = 0.025[/tex]
Inflation is 1 percent
This means that [tex]i = 0.01[/tex]
What is the real rate of return:
Now we apply the formula:
[tex]R = \frac{1 + 0.025}{1 + 0.01} - 1[/tex]
[tex]R = 1.0149 - 1[/tex]
[tex]R = 0.0149[/tex]
0.0149*100% = 1.49%
Thus, the real rate of return is of 1.49%.

You can run at a speed of 4 mph and swim at a speed of 2 mph and are located on the shore, 6 miles east of an island that is 1 mile north of the shoreline. How far (in mi) should you run west to minimize the time needed to reach the island
9514 1404 393
Answer:
5.423 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the distance to run. Then the remaining distance to the point that is closest to the island is (6-x) miles. The straight-line distance (d) to the point x from the island is given by the Pythagorean theorem:
d² = 1² +(6 -x)² = x² -12x +37
d = √(x² -12x +37)
The total travel time is the sum of times running and swimming. Each time is found from ...
time = distance/speed
total time = x/4 + d/2 = x/4 +(1/2)√(x² -12x +37)
__
The total time will be minimized when its derivative with respect to x is zero.
t' = 1/4 +(1/4)(2x -12)/√(x² -12x +37) = 0
Multiplying by 4 and combining fractions, we can see the numerator will be ...
√(x² -12x +37) +2x -12 = 0
Subtracting the radical term and squaring both sides, we get ...
4x² -48x +144 = x² -12x +37
3x² -36x +107 = 0
The quadratic formula tells us the smaller of the two roots is ...
x = (36 -√(36² -4(3)(107)))/(2(3)) = (36 -√12)/6 ≈ 5.423 . . . mi
You should run 5.423 miles west to minimize the time needed to reach the island.

A graphing calculator solves this nicely. The attached graph shows the time is a minimum when you run 5.423 miles.

On a coordinate plane, a straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 2, negative 1), (0, 0), and (4, 2).
On a coordinate plane, a straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 3, negative 3), (0, 0), and (3, 3).
On a coordinate plane, a straight line has a negative slope and goes through (negative 4, 2), (0, 0), and (4, negative 2).
On a coordinate plane, a straight line has a negative slope and goes through (negative 3, 3), (0, 0), (3, negative 3).
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that if two functions, f and g, are inverses, then by definition:
[tex]\displaystyle f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x[/tex]
Hence, the graph of f(g(x)) should be simply y = x.
Therefore, our answer is B, as both coordinates are equivalent for all three points.

An adult can lose or gain two pounds of water ina course of a day. Assume that the changes in water weight isuniformly distributed between minus two and plus two pounds in aday. What is the standard deviation of your weight over a day?
Answer:
The standard deviation of your weight over a day is of 1.1547 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Uniform probability distribution:
An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b, and the standard deviation is:
[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^2}{12}}[/tex]
Assume that the changes in water weight is uniformly distributed between minus two and plus two pounds in a day.
This means that [tex]a = -2, b = 2[/tex]
What is the standard deviation of your weight over a day?
[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(2 - (-2))^2}{12}} = \sqrt{\frac{4^2}{12}} = \sqrt{\frac{16}{12}} = 1.1547[/tex]
The standard deviation of your weight over a day is of 1.1547 pounds.

2. If a seventh site were to be randomly selected among locations bearing service signs, between what values would you predict the difference in the number of crashes to lie? (Use a 95% prediction interval. Round your answers to two decimal places.)
Answer:
Test statistic = 0.63
Pvalue = 0.555
A. Fail to reject H0. The data does not suggest a significant mean difference in the average number of accidents after information was added to road signs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Before 13 22 65 123 56 63
After_ 14 21 43 84 75 72
To perform a paired t test :
H0 : μd = 0
H1 : μd ≠ 0
We obtain the difference between the two dependent sample readings ;
Difference, d = -1, 1, 22, 39, -19, -9
The mean of difference, Xd = Σd/ n = 33/6 = 5.5
The standard deviation, Sd = 21.296 (calculator).
The test statistic :
T = Xd ÷ (Sd/√n) ; where n = 6
T = 5.5 ÷ (21.296/√6)
T = 5.5 ÷ 8.6940555
T = 0.6326
The Pvalue : Using a Pvalue calculator ;
df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5
Pvalue(0.6326, 5) = 0.5548
Decision region :
Reject H0 ; If Pvalue < α; α = 0.05
Since 0.5548 > 0.05 ; we fail to reject the Null and conclude that the data does not suggest a significant mean difference in the average number of accidents after information was added to road signs.
