Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Probability distribution is prepared below.

(b) The probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses is 0.875.

(c) The probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses is 0.875.

(d) The expected value of X is 1.5.

(e) The standard deviation of X is 2.121.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: A fair coin is tossed three times. Let X be the number of heads observed in three tosses of this fair coin.

(a) Find the probability distribution of X.

(b) Find the probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(c) Find the probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(d) Find the expected value of X. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

(e) Find the standard deviation of X. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Now, firstly the sample space obtained in three tosses of a fair coin is given as;

Sample Space (S) = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, TTH, THT, TTT}

(a) The Probability distribution of X is given below;

   Number of Heads (X)         P(X)            [tex]X \times P(X)[/tex]               [tex]X^{2} \times P(X)[/tex]

              0                               [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = 0.125            0                           0

              1                                [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = 0.375         0.375                     0.375  

              2                               [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = 0.375         0.75                          3

              3                               [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = 0.125          0.375                    3.375

           Total                                                    1.5                        6.75          

(b) The probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses is given by = P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 2)

      P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

                     = 0.125 + 0.375 + 0.375

                     = 0.875

(c) The probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses is given by = P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1)

      P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1) =  1 - P(X = 0)

                    =  1 - 0.125

                    =  0.875

(d) The expected value of X = E(X) =  [tex]\sum (X \times P(X))[/tex]

                                                              =  1.5

(e) The Variance of X = V(X) = [tex]E(X^{2} ) - ( E(X))^{2}[/tex]

                                      =  [tex]\sum (X^{2} \times P(X))- (\sum (X \times P(X)))^{2}[/tex]

                                      =  [tex]6.75 - 1.5^{2}[/tex]  = 4.5

Now, Standard deviation of X = [tex]\sqrt{V(X)}[/tex]

                                                  = [tex]\sqrt{4.5}[/tex]  = 2.121.

4. Ronnie increased the amount of money in his piggy bank by 25%. Which expression can be used to find the amount of money in his bank? Let "m" represent the original​.

Step-by-step explanation:

let original price = p

a) p+ 0.3p = p + 30% of p

30% more than original price

b) 0.7p = 70% of p

= 70% of the original price

c) 17p = 17 × p

= 17times of the original price

d) p-0.7p = p - 70% of p

= 70% less than original price

Let original time = t

e) 85% more than the original time = t + 85%of t

= t + 0.85t

f) 15% less time than the original time = t - 15% of t

= t - 0.15t

g) 85% time decrease = t - 85% of t

= t - 0.85t

h) 15% time increase = t + 15% of t

= t + 0.15t

4. Since "m" represent the original amount in Hus piggy bank

An increase of 25% = original amount + 25% of original amount

= 1.25m

The expression that can be used to find the amount of money in his bank = m + 0.25m

Suppose that the operations manager of a nose mask packaging delivery service is

contemplating the purchase of a new fleet of trucks. When

packages are efficiently stored in the trucks in preparation for delivery, two major constraints

have to be considered. The weight in pounds and volume in cubic feet for each item. Now

suppose that in a sample of 200 packages the average weight is 26.0 pounds with a standard

deviation of 3.9 pounds. In addition suppose that the average volume for each of these

packages is 8.8 cubic feet with standard deviation of 2.2 cubic feet. How can we compare the

variation of the weight and volume?​

Answers

Answer:

Coefficient of variation (weight) = 15%

Coefficient of variation (volume) = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by listing out the given information:

Population = 200, Average weight = 26 lb,

standard deviation (weight) = 3.9 lb,

Average volume = 8.8 ft³,

standard deviation (volume) = 2.2 ft³

Based on the data given, the manager will have to make a deduction by comparing the relative scatter of both variables due to the different units of measuring weight (pounds) and volume (cubic feet).

To compare the variation of the weight and volume, we use the coefficient of variation given by the formula:

Coefficient of Variation = (Standard deviation ÷ Mean) * 100%

⇒ [tex]C_{v}[/tex] = (σ ÷ μ) * 100%

For weight

σ = 3.9 lb, μ = 26 lb

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (weight) = (3.9 ÷ 26.0) * 100% = 15%

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (weight) = 15%

For volume

σ = 2.2 ft³, μ = 8.8 ft³

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (volume) = (2.2 ÷ 8.8) * 100% = 25%

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (volume) = 25%

∴ the relative variation of the volume of the package is greater than that of the weight of the package

Step-by-step explanation:

Given size of the sample 'n' =100

mean of the sample x⁻ =  $30,755

The Standard deviation = $20,450

a)

The standard deviation of the annual income σₓ = [tex]\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                                               = [tex]\frac{20,450}{\sqrt{100} }= 2045[/tex]

b)

Find the probability of getting both candies green

Answers

Answer:

9.52% probability of getting both candies green

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the candies are selected is not important. They are also selected without replacement. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

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]

Find the probability of getting both candies green

Desired outcomes:

2 green, from a set of 5. So

[tex]D = C_{5,2} = \frac{5!}{2!3!} = 10[/tex]

Total outcomes:

2 from a set of 4+5+6 = 15. So

[tex]T = C_{15,2} = \frac{15!}{2!13!} = 105[/tex]

Probability:

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{10}{105} = 0.0952[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

P(at least 1) = 1 − P(zero)

P(at least 1) = 1 − (1 − 0.64)⁵

P(at least 1) = 1 − (0.36)⁵

P(at least 1) = 0.9940

The probability that at least one of them has been vaccinated is 0.9939.

What is binomial distribution?

The binomial distribution is the discrete probability distribution that gives only two possible results in an experiment, either success or failure. It helps to check the probability of getting “x” successes in “n” independent trials of a binomial experiment.

For the given situation,

Number of people vaccinated = 64% = 0.64

The formula of binomial distribution is

[tex]P(x:n,p) = nC_{x} p^x (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Here x is the number of successes, x ≤ 1

n is the number of trials, n = 5

p is the probability of a success on a single trial, p = 0.64 and

where, [tex]nC_{x}=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The probability is [tex]P(X \leq 1)=1-P(X=0)[/tex]

[tex]P(X=0)= 5C_{0} (0.64)^{0} (1-0.64)^{5-0}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X=0)= 1(1) (0.36)^{5}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X=0)= 0.0060[/tex]

Thus, [tex]P(X \leq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X \leq 1)=1-0.0060[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X \leq 1)=0.9939[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the probability that at least one of them has been vaccinated is 0.9939.

2. 15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

1. In which of the preceding two cases, part a or part b, do we have a higher probability of obtaining a smaple estimate within $10,000 of the population mean? why?

The lower the standard deviation, the less dispersed the values are, meaning it is more likely to find values within a certain threshold of the mean.

So

Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean.

2. What is the probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean?

We have that:

[tex]\mu = 168000, \sigma = 40000, n = 100, s = \frac{40000}{\sqrt{100}} = 4000[/tex]

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 168000 - 4000 = 164000. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{164000 - 168000}{4000}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1587

15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean

(1) 300=3a+b

(2) 450=1.5a+b

multiply by 2 the (2) we got

900 =3a+2b

minus (1) it gives

900 - 300 = 3a+2b-3a-b = b

so b = 600

and from (1) it gives 3a = 300-600 = -300

so a = -100

then

x=-100p+600

what is the answer to -9x = -27

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

9x = 27

Divide both sides by 9,

x = 27/9 which on factorization of the numerator is written as

x = 9 x 3/9 = 3

Calculation 2: Exponent Or Index Method

9x = 27

Since 9 = 3² and 27 = 3³, the given equation takes the form

3² x = 3³

This gives

x = 3³ ÷ 3² = 3³­­­­­¯² [using the formula a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n)]

= 3¹ = 3 (since the first power of a number is the number itself)

9 x 1 = 9

9 x 2 = 16

9 x 3 = 27

9 x 4 = 36

We stop here because we have already got the answer 27, the right-side of the equality, when 9 is multiplied by 3 . So,

x = 3

hope this helped!

Answer:
x = 3

Explanation:
Step 1 - Divide both sides by negative nine
-9x = -27
-9x / -9 = -27 / -9
x = 3

A company estimates that 0.8% of their products will fail after the original warranty period but within 2 years of the purchase, with a replacement cost of $400. If they offer a 2 year extended warranty for $27, what is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

Answers

Answer:

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8% probability of the product failling.

If the product fails, the company will lose 400 - 27 = $373. So a net value of -373.

100 - 0.8 = 99.2% probability of the product not failling.

If the product does not fail, the company gains $27.

What is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

We multiply each outcome by its probability.

0.008*(-373) + 0.992*27 = 23.8

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

A population of beetles are growing according to a linear growth model. The initial population (week 0) is

P0=6, and the population after 8 weeks is P8=86 Find an explicit formula for the beetle population after n weeks.

After how many weeks will the beetle population reach 236?

Answers

Answer:

The number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 is 28.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quantity starts at size P₀ and grows by d every time period, then the

quantity after n time periods can be determined using explicit form:

[tex]P_{n} = P_{0} + d \cdot n[/tex]

Here,

d = the common difference, i.e. the amount  that the population changes each time n is increased by 1.

In this case it is provided that the original population of beetle was:

P₀ = 6; (week 0)

And the population after 8 weeks was,

P₈ = 86

Compute the value of d as follows:

[tex]P_{8} = P_{0} + d \cdot 8\\86=6+8d\\86-6=8d\\80=8d\\d=10[/tex]

Thus, the explicit formula for the beetle population after n weeks is:

[tex]P_{n}=P_{0}+8n[/tex]

Compute the number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 as follows:

[tex]P_{n}=P_{0}+8n\\\\236=6+8n\\\\8n=236-6\\\\8n=230\\\\n=28.75[/tex]

Thus, the number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 is 28.75.

Kristen wants to buy a Persian cat. She takes out a loan for $500 for one year. The bank charges
her an annual simple interest rate of 8%.


a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?


b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answers

Answer:

a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?

Answer: $540

b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answer: $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest for any amount p is given by

SI = p*r*t/100

where r is the annual rate rate of interest

t is the time

____________________________________________

Given

p= $500 (loan taken)

r = 8%

t = 1 year

SI = 500*8*1/100 = 40

Thus, $40 is the interest charged in a year.

Total money paid at the end of one year = loan taken  + interest charged

                                                                    = $500 + $40

                                                                    = $540

a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?

Answer: $540

b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answer: $40

The graph shows the relationship between the number of hours that Michelle has been driving and the distance that she has left to travel to get to her destination. A graph on a coordinate plane titled Distance Remaining Over Time. The x-axis is labeled time (in hours), numbered 1 to 8, and the y-axis is labeled miles to destination, numbered 50 to 400. A straight line with a negative slope starts at point (0, 350) and ends at point (7, 0). Which statement is true? It took Michelle 6 hours to complete the trip. For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles. In the first 6 hours, Michelle had traveled a total of 50 miles. In the first 3 hours, Michelle had traveled a total of 200 miles.

Answers

Answer:

  For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (0, 350) tells you Michelle's trip is 350 miles long. The point (7, 0) tells you she completed it in 7 hours. The point (6, 50) on the graph tells you she has 50 miles remaining of the original 350 after 6 hours.

True: for each hour Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.

Answer:

B. For each hour that Michelle drove, she traveled an additional 50 miles.
