Answer:
A) P(Betty is first in line and mary is last) = P(B₁) + P(Mₙ) - (P(B₁) × P(Mₙ/B₁))
B) The method used is Relative frequency approach.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told a sample of n kids line up for recess.
Now, the order in which they line up is random with each ordering being equally likely. Thus, this means that the probability of each kid to take a position is n(total of kids/positions).
Since we are being asked about 3 kids from the class, let's assign a letter to each kid:
J: John
B: Betty
M: Mary
A) Now, we want to find the probability that Betty is first in line or Mary is last in line.
In this case, the events are not mutually exclusive, since it's possible that "Betty is first but Mary is not last" or "Mary is last but Betty is not first" or "Betty is the first in line and Mary is last". Thus, there is an intersection between them and the probability is symbolized as;
P(B₁ ∪ Mₙ) = P(B₁) + P (Mₙ) - P(B₁ ∩ Mₙ) = P(B₁) + P(Mₙ) - (P(B₁) × P(Mₙ/B₁))
Where;
The suffix 1 refers to the first position while the suffix n refers to the last position.
Also, P(B₁ ∩ Mₙ) = P(B₁) × P(Mₙ/B₁)
This is because the events "Betty" and "Mary" are not independent since every time a kid takes his place the probability of the next one is affected.
B) The method used is Relative frequency approach.
In this method, the probabilities are usually assigned on the basis of experimentation or historical data.
For example, If A is an event we are considering, and we assume that we have performed the same experiment n times so that n is the number of times A could have occurred.
Also, let n_A be the number of times that A did occur.
Now, the relative frequency would be written as (n_A)/n.
Thus, in this method, we will define P(A) as:
P(A) = lim:n→∞[(n_A)/n]
Given this pair of probabilities, the probability that Mary is the first is n(A) = n-1!, while the probability that Betty is last is n(A) = n-1!
There are n! ways of making this arrangement
We have probability of A: Betty is the first person in this line
Probability of B: Mary is the last person
A U B = p(A) + p(B) - p(A ∩ B)
n(A) = n-1 that is given that Betty is the first person on the line.
then n(A) = n-1!
As the last person on the line P(B) = n-1!
Probability of (A∩B) =( n-2)! this has Mary as the first and Betty as the last person.
Remaining students that would have to be on this line are n-2
Prob(A∪B) = n(A ∪ B)/n!
= 2(n-2)/n(n-1)

If the function Q(t)=4e-0.00938t models the quantity (in kg) of an element in a storage unit after t years, how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg? Round to the nearest year.
Answer:
105 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function :
Q(t) = 4e^(-0.00938t)
Q = Quantity in kilogram of an element in a storage unit after t years
how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg
Inputting Q = 1.5kg into the equation:
1.5 = 4e^(-0.00938t)
Divide both sides by 4
(1.5 / 4) = (4e^(-0.00938t) / 4)
0.375 = e^(-0.00938t)
Take the ln of both sides
In(0.375) = In(e^(-0.00938t))
−0.980829 = -0.00938t
Divide both sides by 0.00938
0.00938t / 0.00938 = 0.980829 /0.00938
t = 104.56599
When t = 104.56599 years , the quantity in kilogram of the element in storage will be exactly 1.5kg
Therefore, when t = 105 years, the quantity of element in storage will be less than 1.5kg
A small company is creating a new product to sell to buyers. They have estimated that it will cost them $25 to produce each item and they will have start-up costs of $116000. This leads to the following expression, which gives the total cost, in dollars, to produce q of these new products: 25q+116000 Use this expression to predict how much it will cost them to produce 8900 items.
Answer:
[tex]Cost = 338500[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Startup = $116000
Cost per item = $25
Equation: 25q + 116000
Required
Determine the cost of producing 8900 items
The question implies that q = 8900
To solve further, we have to substitute 8900 for q in the given equation
Equation = 25q + 116000 becomes
[tex]Cost = 25 * 8900 + 116000[/tex]
[tex]Cost = 222500 + 116000[/tex]
[tex]Cost = 338500[/tex]
Hence, the cost of producing 8900 items is $338500

Diabetic patients have normally distributed cholesterol with mean 200 and standard deviation=10.
Find the percentage of patients whose cholesterol is between 198 mg/dL and
207 mg/dL ?
Answer:
The percentage of patients whose cholesterol is between 198 mg/dL and 207 mg/dL is 33.73%
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate this proportion, we follow the probability route, using the z-score statistics
Mathematically;
z-score = (x-mean)/SD
from the question, mean = 200 and SD = 10
So for 198
z-score = (198-200)/10 = -2/10 = -0.2
For 207
z-score = (207-200)/10 = 7/10 = 0.7
So the probability we want to calculate is;
P(-0.2<z<0.7)
Mathematically this can be calculated as;
P(z<0.7) - P(z<-0.2)
We can calculate the required probability using the standard normal distribution table
P(-0.2<x<0.7) = 0.3373 from the standard distribution table
So it is this 0.3373 that we now convert to percentage and that is 33.73%
3. A medical devices company wants to know the number of MRI machines needed per day. A previous study found a standard deviation of four hours. How many MRI machines must the company study in order to have a margin of error of 0.5 hours when calculating a 90% confidence interval
Answer:
173 MRI machines
Step-by-step explanation:
Margin of error E = 0.5
Confidence interval 90% = 1-0.9 = 0.1
Standard deviation = 4 hours
Number of MRI machines needed per day n, = [(z alpha/2 * SD)/E]²
Z alpha/2 = 1.645 at alpha = 0.1
Inputting these values into n we have that
[(1.645*4)/0.5]²
= 13.16²
= 173.18 is approximately equal to 173
The company has to study 173 machines.

A population of bacteria P is changing at a rate of dP/dt = 3000/1+0.25t where t is the time in days. The initial population (when t=0) is 1000. Write an equation that gives the population at any time t. Then find the population when t = 3 days.
Answer:
- At any time t, the population is:
P = 375t² + 3000t + 1000
- At time t = 3 days, the population is:
P = 13,375
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the rate of change of the population of bacteria as:
dP/dt = 3000/(1 + 0.25t)
we need to rewrite the given differential equation, and solve.
Rewriting, we have:
dP/3000 = (1 + 0.25t)dt
Integrating both sides, we have
P/3000 = t + (0.25/2)t² + C
P/3000 = t + 0.125t² + C
When t = 0, P = 1000
So,
1000/3000 = C
C = 1/3
Therefore, at any time t, the population is:
P/3000 = 0.125t² + t + 1/3
P = 375t² + 3000t + 1000
At time t = 3 days, the population is :
P = 375(3²) + 3000(3) + 1000
= 3375 + 9000 + 1000
P = 13,375

Find the doubling time of an investment earning 8% interest if interest is compounded continuously. The doubling time of an investment earning 8% interest if interest is compounded continuously is ____ years.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using FV = PV(1 + r)^n where FV = future value, PV = present value, r = interest rate per period, and n = # of periods
1/PV (FV) = (PV(1 + r^n)1/PV divide by PV
ln(FV/PV) = ln(1 + r^n) convert to natural log function
ln(FV/PV) = n[ln(1 + r)] by simplifying
n = ln(FV/PV) / ln(1 + r) solve for n
n = ln(2/1) / ln(1 + .08) solve for n, letting FV + 2, PV = 1 and rate = 8% or .08 compound annually
n = 9
n = ln(2/1) / ln(1 + .08/12) solve for n, letting FV + 2, PV = 1 and rate = .08/12 compound monthly
n = 104 months or 8.69 years
n = ln(2/1) / ln(1 + .08/365) solve for n, letting FV + 2, PV = 1 & rate = .08/365 compound daily
n = 3163 days or 8.67 years
Alternatively
A = P e ^(rt)
Given that r = 8%
= 8/100
= 0.08
2 = e^(0.08t)
ln(2)/0.08 = t
0.6931/0.08 = t
t= 8.664yrs
t = 8.67yrs

A sequence of 1 million iid symbols(+1 and +2), Xi, are transmitted through a channel and summed to produce a new random variable W. Assume that the probability of transmitting a +1 is 0.4. Show your work
a) Determine the expected value for W
b) Determine the variance of W
Answer:
E(w) = 1600000
v(w) = 240000
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
sequence = 1 million iid (+1 and +2)
probability of transmitting a +1 = 0.4
solution
sequence will be here as
P{Xi = k } = 0.4 for k = +1
0.6 for k = +2
and define is
x1 + x2 + ................ + X1000000
so for expected value for W
E(w) = E( x1 + x2 + ................ + X1000000 ) ......................1
as per the linear probability of expectation
E(w) = 1000000 ( 0.4 × 1 + 0.6 × 2)
E(w) = 1600000
and
for variance of W
v(w) = V ( x1 + x2 + ................ + X1000000 ) ..........................2
v(w) = V x1 + V x2 + ................ + V X1000000
here also same as that xi are i.e d so cov(xi, xj ) = 0 and i ≠ j
so
v(w) = 1000000 ( v(x) )
v(w) = 1000000 ( 0.24)
v(w) = 240000

One way to calculate the target heart rate of a physically fit adult during exercise is given by the formula h=0.8( 220−x ), where h is the number of heartbeats per minute and x is the age of the person in years. Which formula is equivalent and gives the age of the person in terms of the number of heartbeats per minute?
Answer:
The answer is:
C. [tex]\bold{x = -1.25h+220}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]h=0.8( 220-x )[/tex]
Where [tex]h[/tex] is the heartbeats per minute and
[tex]x[/tex] is the age of person
To find:
Age of person in terms of heartbeats per minute = ?
To choose form the options:
[tex]A.\ x=176-h\\B.\ x=176-0.8h\\C.\ x=-1.25h+220\\D.\ x=h-0.8220[/tex]
Solution:
First of all, let us have a look at the given equation:
[tex]h=0.8( 220-x )[/tex]
It is value of [tex]h[/tex] in terms of [tex]x[/tex].
We have to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] in terms of [tex]h[/tex].
Let us divide the equation by 0.8 on both sides:
[tex]\dfrac{h}{0.8}=\dfrac{0.8( 220-x )}{0.8}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{0.8}h=220-x\\\Rightarrow 1.25h=220-x[/tex]
Now, subtracting 220 from both sides:
[tex]\Rightarrow 1.25h-220=220-x-220\\\Rightarrow 1.25h-220=-x[/tex]
Now, multiplying with -1 on both sides:
[tex]-1.25h+220=x\\OR\\\bold{x = -1.25h+220}[/tex]
So, the answer is:
C. [tex]\bold{x = -1.25h+220}[/tex]
