Consider the following dice game, as played at a certain gambling casino: players 1 and 2 roll a pair of dice in turn. the bank then rolls the dice to determine the outcome according to the following rule: player i,i=1,2, wins if his roll is strictly


Ii={1 if i wins, 0 otherwise}


and show that I1 and I2 are positively correlated. Explain why this result was to be expected.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

they are positively correlated.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the individal expectations first. FIrst player will win if that player's roll is greater than the bank's roll. There are (6 possible rolls of player 1 * 6 possible rolls of bank =) 36 total possible rolls, out of which player 1 will win in 15 cases.

[tex]\therefore E(I_i) = 1\cdot \frac{15}{36} + 0 \cdot \frac{21}{36} = \frac{5}{12} \approx 0.4167[/tex]

For the joint expectation, there are (6 possible rolls of player 1 * 6 possible rolls of player 2 * 6 possible rolls of bank =) 216 total possible rolls.

Cases where both players win: Expectation = $2.

If bank rolls 1, both players will win in 5*5 = 25 cases. P1 is one of {2,3,4,5,6}, P2 is one of {2,3,4,5,6}

If bank rolls 2, both players will win in 4*4 = 16 cases.

If bank rolls 3, both players will win in 3*3 = 9 cases.

If bank rolls 4, both players will win in 2*2 = 4 cases.

If bank rolls 5, both players will win in 1*1 = 1 cases.

If bank rolls 6, both players will win in 0*0 = 0 cases.

Total cases = 25+16+9+4+1+0 = 55 cases.

Cases where player 1 wins $1 and player 2 loses: Expectation = $1.

If bank rolls 1, player 1 will win and player 2 will lose in 5*1 = 5 cases. P1 is one of {2,3,4,5,6}, P2 is {1}

If bank rolls 2, player 1 will win and player 2 will lose in 4*2 = 8 cases.

If bank rolls 3, player 1 will win and player 2 will lose in 3*3 = 9 cases.

If bank rolls 4, player 1 will win and player 2 will lose in 2*4 = 8 cases.

If bank rolls 5, player 1 will win and player 2 will lose in 1*5 = 5 cases.

If bank rolls 6, player 1 will win and player 2 will lose in 0*6 = 0 cases.

Total cases = 5+8+9+8+5+0 = 35

Cases where player 2 wins $1 and player 1 loses: Expectation = $1.

This is the same as above with player 1 and 2 exchanged.

Total cases = 35

Cases where both players lose: Expectation = $0.

If bank rolls 1, both players will lose in 1*1 = 1 cases. P1 is {1}, P2 is {1}

If bank rolls 2, both players will lose in 2*2 = 4 cases.

If bank rolls 3, both players will lose in 3*3 = 9 cases.

If bank rolls 4, both players will lose in 4*4 = 16 cases.

If bank rolls 5, both players will lose in 5*5 = 25 cases.

If bank rolls 6, both players will lose in 6*6 = 36 cases.

Total cases = 1+4+9+16+25+36 = 91 cases.

Total of all cases (we expect this to be 216 as mentioned above) = 55+35+35+91=216

So, joint expectation is:

[tex]E(I_1I_2) = \frac{2\cdot 55 +1\cdot 35+1\cdot 35+0\cdot 91}{216} = \frac{180}{216}= \frac{5}{6} \approx 0.8333[/tex]

So, the covariance is given by:

[tex]\texttt{Cov}(I_1I_2) =E(I_1I_2) -E(I_1)\cdot E(I_2)= \frac{5}{6}-\frac{5}{12}\cdot\frac{5}{12}=\frac{95}{144} \approx 0.6597[/tex]

As this is greater than 0 and closer to 1, they are positively correlated.

The reason why this result is expected is because the same bank roll is being used for both players. So, it is very likely that both players will win if the bank roll is 1 or even 2. Also, it is very likely that both players will lose if the bank roll is 6, 5, or even 4. This shows positive correlation between the events.

Given A triangle with sides x=6.35 cm and Y=12.25 cm with an angle of 90 degrees between them, find the length of the hypotenuse and the size of the other two angles.

Answers

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 13.798 cm, Angle1 = 27.4° and Angle2 = 62.59°

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to help us understand the question would be to draw it out.

A right angled triangle, with the two sides that make the right angle being x and y (it does not matter which way you put x and y).

I have attached the quick sketch I will refer to.

To find the length of the hypotenuse (lets call it H) we can use Pythagoras theorem as shown below

[tex]{x^{2}+y^{2}} = H^{2}[/tex]

Substitute in our values for x and y, and solve for H

[tex]{6.35^{2}+12.25^{2}} = H^{2}[/tex]

[tex]190.385 = H^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{190.385} = H[/tex]

H = 13.79 cm

To find the other two angles of the triangle we will use trigonometry

I will first look for angle ∅. Since we have all three sides of the triangle we can use any of the three trig functions, I chose to use Tan

Tan ∅ [tex]= \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Substitute in our values for x and y, and solve for ∅

Tan ∅ = [tex]\frac{6.35}{12.25}[/tex]

∅ = [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{6.35}{12.25}[/tex]

∅ = 27.4°

Now do the same for angle β. I chose to use Tan again

Tan β [tex]= \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Substitute in our values for x and y, and solve for β

Tan β = [tex]\frac{12.25}{6.35}[/tex]

β = [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{12.25}{6.35}[/tex]

β = 62.59°

Professional basketball coaches may coach at one of three levels: Assistant, Associate, or Head. It is possible to transition from any of these levels (states) to another. Each of these three states is transient because once someone leaves coaching at any level they never return (at least according to our model). On average, annual salary for head coaches is $104,485, for associates is $62,993, and for assistants is $41,389. Using our P matrix, we have solved to find the fundamental matrix (we have called it the (I-Q) inverse matrix): Assist Assoc Head Assist 6 4 2 Assoc 2 6 6 Head 1 2 10 For someone who is a head coach - what is their expected income for the remainder of their professional coaching career?

Answer:

For someone who is a head coach - their expected income for the remainder of their professional coaching career will be

Expected income = 1×$41,389 + 2×$62,993 + 10×$104,485

Expected income = $1,212,225

Step-by-step explanation:

Professional basketball coaches may coach at one of three levels:

AssistantAssociateHead

On average, the annual salary is given by

Assistant = $41,389Associate = $62,993Head = $104,485

Using our P matrix, we have solved to find the fundamental matrix (we have called it the (I-Q) inverse matrix):

                      Assistant      Associate     Head

Assistant              6                     4              2

Head                    1                      2              10

For someone who is a head coach - what is their expected income for the remainder of their professional coaching career?

As per the given P matrix, for someone who is a head coach will be:

Assistant = 1 time

Associate = 2 times

Head = 10 times

Therefore, the expected income will be,

Expected income = 1×$41,389 + 2×$62,993 + 10×$104,485

Expected income = $1,212,225

Another aeroplane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and flies on a straight course to the airstrip A. both planes arrives at the airstrip A at 11.30am. calculate the average speed of Y to three significant figures. the direction of flight Y to the nearest degree

Answers

Answer:

(a)123 km/hr

(b)39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane X with an average speed of 50km/hr travels for 2 hours from T (Kano Airport) to point U in the diagram.

Distance = Speed X Time

Therefore: Distance from T to U =50km/hr X 2 hr =100 km

It moves from Point U at 9.00 am and arrives at the airstrip A by 11.30am.

Distance, UA=50km/hr X 2.5 hr =125 km

Using alternate angles in the diagram:

[tex]\angle U=110^\circ[/tex]

(a)First, we calculate the distance traveled, TA by plane Y.

Using Cosine rule

[tex]u^2=t^2+a^2-2ta\cos U\\u^2=100^2+125^2-2(100)(125)\cos 110^\circ\\u^2=34175.50\\u=184.87$ km[/tex]

Plane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and arrives at 11.30am

Time taken =1.5 hour

Therefore:

Average Speed of Y

[tex]=184.87 \div 1.5\\=123.25$ km/hr\\\approx 123$ km/hr (correct to three significant figures)[/tex]

b)Flight Direction of Y

Using Law of Sines

[tex]\dfrac{t}{\sin T} =\dfrac{u}{\sin U}\\\dfrac{125}{\sin T} =\dfrac{184.87}{\sin 110}\\123 \times \sin T=125 \times \sin 110\\\sin T=(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87\\T=\arcsin [(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87]\\T=39^\circ $ (to the nearest degree)[/tex]

The direction of flight Y to the nearest degree is 39 degrees.

We wish to see if the dial indicating the oven temperature for a certain model of oven is properly calibrated. Four ovens of this model are selected at random. The dial on each is set to 300 °F, and, after one hour, the actual temperature of each is measured. The temperatures measured are 305 °F, 310 °F, 300 °F, and 305 °F. Assuming that the actual temperatures for this model when the dial is set for 300° are Normally distributed with mean μ, we test whether the dial is properly calibrated at 5% of significance level.

Actual Temp: 305, 310, 300, 305

Required:
a. Based on the data, calculate the sample standard deviation and standard error of X bar (round them into two decimal places) Standard Deviation: Standard Error:
b. What is a 95% confidence interval for μ? (upper and lower bound)
c. Provide your test statistic and P-value
d. State your conclusion clearly (statistical conclusion and its interpretation).
e. Even if 5% of significance level looks like default of test, we can use different significance levels as well. If we change the significance level into 10% (= 0.1), how does it affect your conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

a. Standard deviation: 4.082

Standard error: 2.041

b. The 95% confidence interval for the actual temperature is (298.5, 311.5).

Upper bound: 311.5

Lower bound: 298.5

c. Test statistic t=2.45

P-value = 0.092

d. There is no enough evidence to claim that the dial of the oven is not properly calibrated. The actual temperature does not significantly differ from 300 °F.

e. If we use a significance level of 10% (a less rigorous test, in which the null hypothesis is rejected with with less requirements), the conclusion changes and now there is enough evidence to claim that the dial is not properly calibrated.

This happens because now the P-value (0.092) is smaller than the significance level (0.10), given statististical evidence for the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean and standard deviation of the sample are:

[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{4}\sum_{i=1}^{4}(305+310+300+305)\\\\\\ M=\dfrac{1220}{4}=305[/tex]

[tex]s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{(n-1)}\sum_{i=1}^{4}(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot [(305-(305))^2+(310-(305))^2+(300-(305))^2+(305-(305))^2]}\\\\\\ s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot [(0)+(25)+(25)+(0)]}\\\\\\ s=\sqrt{\dfrac{50}{3}}=\sqrt{16.667}\\\\\\s=4.082[/tex]

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=305.

The sample size is N=4.

When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM (standard error):

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{4.082}{\sqrt{4}}=\dfrac{4.082}{2}=2.041[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=4-1=3[/tex]

The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 3 degrees of freedom is t=3.18.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=3.18 \cdot 2.041=6.5[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 305-6.5=298.5\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 305+6.5=311.5[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the actual temperature is (298.5, 311.5).

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the actual temperature of the oven when the dial is at 300 °F does not significantly differ from 300 °F.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=300\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 300[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=4.

The sample mean is M=305.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=4.028.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{4.082}{\sqrt{4}}=2.041[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{305-300}{2.041}=\dfrac{5}{2.041}=2.45[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=4-1=3[/tex]

This test is a two-tailed test, with 3 degrees of freedom and t=2.45, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(t>2.45)=0.092[/tex]

As the P-value (0.092) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the actual temperature of the oven when the dial is at 300 °F does not significantly differ from 300 °F.

If the significance level is 10%, the P-value (0.092) is smaller than the significance level (0.1) and the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the actual temperature of the oven when the dial is at 300 °C does not significantly differ from 300 °C.

Answers

Answer:

y=-5/2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the gradient whereas since the two lines are parallel they hav the same gradient. y=mx+c whereas m is the gradient. 5x+2y=12

2y=-5x+12

y=-5/2x+12(so the gradient is -5/2x..... gradient=-5/2

y-4=-5/2

x+2

y-4=-5/2(x+2)

y-4=-5/2x-5

y=-5/2x-5+4

y=-5/2x-1

The equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (-2, 4) is y = -5/2 x - 1.

What is the Equation of line in Slope Intercept form?

Equation of a line in slope intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept, which is the y coordinate of the point where it touches the Y axis.

Given that the equation of the line is,

5x + 2y = 12

2y = -5x + 12

y = -5/2 x + 6

This is in the slope intercept form, where the slope = -5/2.

Slopes of two parallel lines are equal.

So any line parallel to the given line will be of the form y = -5/2 x + c

Given line passes through (-2, 4).

Substituting (-2, 4) in y = -5/2 x + c, we get,

(-5/2) (-2) + c = 4

c = -1

So the equation is, y = -5/2 x - 1

Hence the required equation is y = -5/2 x - 1.

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error is 370.8.

The 90​% confidence interval for the population mean is between $167.2 and $908.8

The correct interpretation is that we are 90% sure that the true mean price for all cellphones in within the interval end-points, so option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 6 - 1 = 5

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 5 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0150

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.0150*184 = 370.8.

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 538 - 370.8 = $167.2

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 538 + 370.8 = $908.8

The 90​% confidence interval for the population mean is between $167.2 and $908.8

The correct interpretation is that we are 90% sure that the true mean price for all cellphones in within the interval end-points, so option B.

Answers

Answer:

  a.  235°

  b. 146.03 km

  c. 105 km

  d. 193 km

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The bearing of E from A is given as 55°. The bearing in the opposite direction, from E to A, is this angle with 180° added:

  bearing of A from E = 55° +180° = 235°

__

b. The internal angle at E is the difference between the external angle at C and the internal angle at A:

  ∠E = 134° -55° = 79°

The law of sines tells you ...

  CE/sin(∠A) = CA/sin(∠E)

  CE = CA(sin(∠A)/sin(∠E)) = (175 km)·sin(55°)/sin(79°) ≈ 146.03 km

  CE ≈ 146 km

__

c. The internal angle at C is the supplement of the external angle, so is ...

  ∠C = 180° -134° = 46°

The distance PE is opposite that angle, and CE is the hypotenuse of the right triangle CPE. The sine trig relation is helpful here:

There is about a 21​% chance of getting that many girls if the method had no effect.

Answers

Answer:

Due to the fact that there is 21% chance of getting that many girls by chance and also In conjunction to that; there is no test involved as well , we can conclude that the method does not have statistical significance.

The result does not appear to have a practical significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

In  a random selection 1936 users, we observed that the method gave birth to  950 boys and 986 girls

There is about a 21​% chance of getting that many girls if the method had no effect.

Due to the fact that there is 21% chance of getting that many girls by chance and also In conjunction to that; there is no test involved as well , we can conclude that the method does not have statistical significance.

Given that:

The number of girls = 986

Number of boys = 950

Number of babies born = 1936

The percentage of girls = number of girls born/ number of babies born

The percentage of girls = 986 /1936

The percentage of girls = 0.5093

The percentage of girls =  50.93%

We can infer that this method does not have a practical significance  because most couples would not prefer to use a method that raise the likelihood of a girl from the approximately 50% rate expected by chance to the 50.93% .

Find the probability that in 200 tosses of a fair die, we will obtain at most 30 fives

Answers

Answer:

0.2946

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of tosses, n = 200

P(obtaining a 5), p = 1/6

q = 1 - p = 5/6

Normal approximation for binomial distribution

P(X < A) = P(Z < (A - mean)/standard deviation)

Mean = np

= 200 x 1/6

= 33.33

Standard deviation = √npq

= √(200(1/6)(5/6) )

= 5.27

P(at most 30 fives) = P(X ≤ 30)

= P(Z < (30.5 - 33.33)/5.27) (continuity correction of 0.5 is added to 30)

= P(Z < -0.54)

= 0.2946

James makes fruit punch by mixing fruit jucie and lemonade in the ratio 1:4 she needs to make 40 liters of punch for a party How much of each ingredient does she need? Fruit juice ? Liters Lemonade ?liters


Part 2

During the party Josie decides to make some more.
She has 4 litres of fruit juice left and plenty of lemonade.
How much extra punch can she make?

Part 3

To make the second batch of punch go further Josie adds 2 more litres of lemonade.
What is the ratio of fruit juice to lemonade in the second batch?

Answers

Answer:

Part 1.

Juice = 8 L.

Lemonade = 32 L.

Part 2.

20 L punch Josie can make.

Part 3.

New ratio juice : lemonade = 2 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1.

1+4 = 5 parts altogether, 1 parts for juice and 4 parts for lemonade.

40 : 5 = 8 L is 1 part.

Juice - 1 part - 8 L.

Lemonade - 4 parts - 4*8 = 32 L.

Part 2.

1 parts of juice needs 4 parts of lemonade

4 L of juice     needs  x L of lemonade

1 : 4 = 4 : x

x = 4*4/1 = 16 L lemonade

4+ 16 = 20 L punch Josie can make

Part 3.

It was 4 L of juice and 16 L of lemonade.

After 2 L lemonade was added, we have 4 L of juice and (16+2) = 18 L of lemonade.

4 L juice : 18 L lemonade = 4/2 L juice : 18/2 L lemonade =

= 2 L juice: 9L lemonade

New ratio juice : lemonade = 2 : 9

£2.70 fig rolls and £5.72 crisps

Step-by-step explanation:

£1.08+0.54+£1.08= £2.70 fig rolls

£1.43+£1.43+£1.43-£1.43= £2.86 x 2= £5.72 for 6 packets of crisps

£2.70+ £5.72= £8.42

for the crisps, for every 3 packets one is free. as you want 6 packets, 2 will be free. so 4 x 1.43 = £5.72

for the fig rolls, if you buy two one will be half price. as we want three, 2 will be normal price and 1 will be half price. 1.08 + 1.08 + 0.54 = £2.70

the total is £2.70+£5.72=£8.42

A university warehouse has received a shipment of 25 printers, of which 10 are laser printers and 15 are inkjet models. If 6 of these 25 are selected at random to be checked by a particular technician, what is the probability that exactly 3 of those selected are laser printers (so that the other 3 are inkjets)

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 0.31

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability, we will consider the following approach. Given a particular outcome, and considering that each outcome is equally likely, we can calculate the probability by simply counting the number of ways we get the desired outcome and divide it by the total number of outcomes.

In this case, the event of interest is  choosing 3 laser printers and 3 inkjets. At first, we have a total of 25 printers and we will be choosing 6 printers at random. The total number of ways in which we can choose 6 elements out of 25 is [tex]\binom{25}{6}[/tex], where [tex]\binom{n}{k} = \frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}[/tex]. We have that [tex]\binom{25}{6} = 177100[/tex]

Now, we will calculate the number of ways to which we obtain the desired event. We will be choosing 3 laser printers and 3 inkjets. So the total number of ways this can happen is the multiplication of the number of ways we can choose 3 printers out of 10 (for the laser printers) times the number of ways of choosing 3 printers out of 15 (for the inkjets). So, in this case, the event can be obtained in [tex]\binom{10}{3}\cdot \binom{15}{3} = 54600[/tex]

So the probability of having 3 laser printers and 3 inkjets is given by

[tex] \frac{54600}{177100} = \frac{78}{253} = 0.31[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Parallel lines have same slope

y =  3x + 2

m = 3

(2, -4)  ;  m = 3

equation:  y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - [-4] = 3(x - 2)

y + 4 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 6 - 4

y = 3x - 10

2) y = 18x + 2

m1 = 18

Slope the line perpendicular to  y = 18x + 2,  m2 = -1/m1 = -1/18

m2 = -1/18

Arlinda says there is a linear relationship between the price (p) of 500ml soft drink and the number sold (x). The formula is x = ap + b where a and b are constants. At N$20 she sells 1500 of the 500ml soft drinks but the quantity sold falls by 200 of the 500ml soft drinks when she increases the price by 50%. At what price will 600 of the 500ml energy drinks be sold?

Answers

Answer: 600 of the 500ml energy drinks be sold be sold at $45

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear relationship between the price (p) of 500ml soft drink and the number sold (x) is expressed as

x = ap + b

At N$20 she sells 1500 of the 500ml soft drinks. This means that the first equation would be

1500 = 20a + b - - - - - - - - -1

the quantity sold falls by 200 of the 500ml soft drinks when she increases the price by 50%. This means that the new quantity sold is 1500 - 200 = 1300

The price at which they were sold is

20 + (50/100 × 20) = $30

The second equation would be

1300 = 30a + b - - - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes

200 = - 10a

a = 200/- 10 = - 20

Substituting a = - 20 into equation 2, it becomes

1300 = 10 × - 20 + b

1300 = - 200 + b

b = 1300 + 200 = 1500

The linear relationship becomes

x = - 20p + 1500

If x = 600, then

600 = - 20p + 1500

- 20p = 600 - 1500 = - 900

p = - 900/ - 20

p = $45
