A history professor decides to give a 12-question true-false quiz. She wants to choose the passing grade such that the probability of passing a student who guesses on every question is less than 0.10. What score should be set as the lowest passing grade? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

we can set the 9 as a benchmark to be the score for the passing grade so that probability of passing a student who guesses every question is less than 0.10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Sample  size n = 12

the probability of passing a student who guesses on every question is less than 0.10

In a alternative - response question (true/false) question, the probability of answering  a question correctly  = 1/2 = 0.5

Let X be the random variable that is represent number of correct answers out of 12.

The X [tex]\sim[/tex] BInomial (12, 0.5)

The probability mass function :

[tex]P(X = k) = \dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} \times p^k\times (1-p)^{n-k}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 12) = \dfrac{12!}{12!(12-12)!} \times 0.5^{12}\times (1-0.5)^{12-12}[/tex]

P(X = 12) = 2.44 × 10⁻⁴

[tex]P(X = 11) = \dfrac{12!}{11!(12-11)!} \times 0.5^{11}\times (1-0.5)^{12-11}[/tex]

P(X =11 ) = 0.00293

[tex]P(X = 10) = \dfrac{12!}{10!(12-10)!} \times 0.5^{10}\times (1-0.5)^{12-10}[/tex]

P(X = 10) = 0.01611

[tex]P(X = 9) = \dfrac{12!}{9!(12-9)!} \times 0.5^{19}\times (1-0.5)^{12-9}[/tex]

P(X = 9) = 0.0537

[tex]P(X = 8) = \dfrac{12!}{8!(12-8)!} \times 0.5^{8}\times (1-0.5)^{12-8}[/tex]

P(X = 8)  = 0.12085

[tex]P(X = 7) = \dfrac{12!}{7!(12-7)!} \times 0.5^{7}\times (1-0.5)^{12-7}[/tex]

P(X = 7) = 0.19335

.........

We can see that,a t P(X = 9) , the probability is 0.0537 which less than 0.10 but starting from P(X = 8) downwards the probability is more than 0.01

As such, we can set the 9 as a benchmark to be the score for the passing grade so that probability of passing a student who guesses every question is less than 0.10

What is the solution to the equation? Show your work and explain your answer. 4(x+2)−1=4x+7

Answers

Answer:

infinitely many solutions / all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute the 4 on the left side of the equation

4 • x = 4x

4 • 2 = 8

4x + 8 - 1 = 4x + 7

combine like terms

4x + 7 = 4x + 7

0 = 0

since this expression is true, there are infinitely many solutions

4x+8-1=4x+7
x=x


There are infinitely many solutions. Any number works.

So......

If we take 5x from 5x^3 it will bcm x^2

If we take 5x from 10^2 it will bcm 2x

if we take 5x from 15x^2 it will bcm 3

Therefore the final expression will bcm

Suppose that four students, Stephanie, Charles, Tim, and Rachel, are all preparing to take standardized exam that contains three subjects, math, reading, and science. Four tutors are available to help the students prepare for the exam. Each tutor is able to help in any of the three subjects. How many different ways can the students, tutors, and subjects be uniquely combined?

Answers

Answer:

48 different ways

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we use the Fundamental Counting Principle technique.

Fundamental Counting Principle can be defined as the way by which we determine the possibility or the number of possible outcomes for an event.

If we have event X and event Y and event Z, then the number of possible outcomes = X × Y × Z

For the above question, we have 3 events

Event 1 : 4 students ( Stephanie, Charles, Tim, and Rachel)

Event 2: 3 subjects ( Math, Reading, And Science)

Event 3 : 4 tutors.

Therefore,the many different ways can the students, tutors, and subjects can be be uniquely combined is:

= 4 × 3 × 4

= 48 different ways

Adams Company revenues are $500 on invested capital of $250. Expenses are currently 60% of sales. If Angelo Company can reduce its capital investment by 20% in Adams Company, return on investment will be _____.

Answers

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the return on investment is:

ROI=(Net Profit/Total Investment)*100

Net profit=Revenues-expenses=500-(500*0.6)=500-300=200

Total investment=250-(250*0.2)=250-50=200

Now, you can replace the values:

ROI= (200/200)*100

ROI= 100%

According to this, the answer is that If Angelo Company can reduce its capital investment by 20% in Adams Company, return on investment will be 100%.

Calculate Kate's speed:

s = d/t

s = 4.5/1.33

If x1 and x2 are the roots of the equation x^2 +5x-3=0, determine the value of x1^2 + x2^2. I know that I have to use vietas formula, but I am stuck :( any help would be appreciated

Answers

Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x - 3 = 0

with a = 1, b = 5, c= - 3 , then

sum of roots x₁ + x₂ = - [tex]\frac{b}{a}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{1}[/tex] = - 5

product of roots = [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{1}[/tex] = - 3

Now

(x₁ + x₂)² = x₁² + 2x₁x₂ + x₂² , that is

(- 5)² = x₁² + 2(- 3) + x₂²

25 = x₁² - 6 + x₂² ( add 6 to both sides ), then

x₁² + x₂² = 31

Please answer quickly, what is the measure of c

Answers

Answer: B. 140

===================================================

Explanation:

The only given number here is the 20 degree angle. So we'll start with that. This is an inscribed angle, which doubles to 2*20 = 40, and this is the measure of the arc the inscribed angle cuts off (inscribed angle theorem). Consequently, it means that central angle b is also 40 degrees.

With b = 40, we can see that c = 180-b = 180-40 = 140. This is because b+c = 180 as the two angles are supplementary.

Answer:

140 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If the given angle is 20 degrees then the other unknown angle would also be 20 degrees because this triangle is an isosceles triangle. 20+20+20=180 proving the triangle sum theorem.

Please help what are the slope and the y intercept of the linear function that is represented by the table?

Answers

Answer:

The slope is -2, the y-intercept is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]

Chose any two coordinates pair. Let's make use of:

[tex] (0, 12) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

[tex] (3, 6) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]

Thus,

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{6 - 12}{3 - 0} [/tex]

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{-6}{3} [/tex]

[tex] slope (m) = -2 [/tex]

Using the slope-intercept equation, find the y-intercept, b, as follows:

[tex] y = mx + b [/tex]

Use any coordinate pair as x and y, then solve for b.

Let's use (3, 6)

[tex] 6 = (-2)(3) + b [/tex]

[tex] 6 = -6 + b [/tex]

Add 6 to both sides

[tex] 6 + 6 = - 6 + b + 6 [/tex]

[tex] 12 = b [/tex]
