A jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint. Each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw. What is the probability that you get exactly the following sequence: candy—mintmcandy, in that order?
(a) 0.0300.
(b) 0.0530.
(c) 0.1607.
(d) 1.2143.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint, and each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw, to determine what is the probability that you get exactly the sequence candy-mint-candy, in that order, the following calculation should be performed:

4 + 7 + 3 = 14

7/14 x 3/14 x 7/14 = X

0.5 x 0.2142 x 0.5 = X

0.053 = X

Therefore, the probability that the chosen sequence will be obtained is 0.0530, or 5.3%.

Answers

Answer: The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of 3.1 in dataset A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Order the dataset from least to greatest:

-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28

Then find the values that lies in the middle:

-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28

Since there are 2 values, find the average of those 2 values:

[tex]\frac{-9+(-2)}{2} =\frac{-11}{2} =-5.5[/tex]

The median value = -5.5.

The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of  3.1 in dataset A.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let AC = x

AB - AC = 4 cm

AB = 4 +x  ----------------(I)

Pythagorean theorem

AB² + AC² =BC²

(4 + x)² + x² = 9²

Use the identity (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b² where a = 4 & b = x

4² +2*4*x  +x² + x²= 81

16 + 8x + 2x² = 81

2x² + 8x + 16 - 81 = 0

2x² + 8x - 65= 0

a = 2 ; b = 8 ; c = -65

D = b² - 4ac

   = 8² - 4*2*(-65)

  = 64 +  520

D = 584

√D = √584 = 24.16

[tex]x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{D}}{2a} \ or \ x =\frac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}\\\\x= \frac{-8+24.16}{2*2} \ or \ x = \frac{-8-24.6}{2*2}[/tex]   {Ignore this as it is negative.}

x = 16.16/4

x = 4.04

AC = 4.04 Cm

AB = 4 + 4.04 = 8.04 cm

Area of triangle ABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}* base * height[/tex]

                                   [tex]=\frac{1}{2}*4.04 *8.04\\\\= 2.02 * 8.04[/tex]

Night students :

n1 =30 x1= 3.34 s1 = 0.02

Day students:

n2 = 30 x2 = 3.32 s2 = 0.08

The test statistic :

(x1 - x2) / √(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)

T= (3.34 - 3.32) / √(0.02²/30) + (0.08²/30)

T = 0.02 / 0.0150554

Test statistic = 1.328

Using the conservative approach ;

df = Smaller of n1 - 1 or n2 - 1

df = 30 - 1 = 29

Pvalue(1.328, 29) = 0.097

At α = 0.10

Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 ; and conclude that there is significant evidence that GPA of night student is greater than GPA of day student

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It might be easier to start by expressing the ratios with AD as the denominator.

  AD/AC = 2/1   ⇒   AC/AD = 1/2

  AD/AB = 3/1   ⇒   AB/AD = 1/3

From the latter, we have ...

  (AD -AB)/AD = 1 -1/3 = 2/3 = BD/AD

Then the desired ratio is ...

  AC/BD = (AC/AD)/(BD/AD) = (1/2)/(2/3) = (3/6)/(4/6)

  AC/BD = 3/4

Hello!

We can solve the quadratic by factoring the equation.

Standard Form of a Quadratic: [tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex]

Given our equation: [tex]x^2 + x - 2 = 0[/tex]

a = 1b = 1c = -2

Find two numbers that multiply up to "ac" but add up to "b". The two numbers are 2 and -1. Expand x into 2x and -1x.

Factor by Grouping[tex]x^2 + x - 2 = 0[/tex][tex]x^2 + 2x - x - 2 = 0[/tex][tex]x(x + 2) -1(x + 2) = 0[/tex][tex](x - 1)(x + 2) = 0[/tex]

Set each factor to 0 and solve for x:

The solutions for x are 1 and -2.

How long will it take her to travel 72 miles? use the unit ratio to solve the following problem.

Answers

Answer:

It will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Noshwa is completing the bike portion of a triathlon, assuming that she travels 40 miles in 2.5 hours, to determine how long will it take her to travel 72 miles, the following calculation must be performed:

40 = 2.5

72 = X

72 x 2.5 / 50 = X

180/50 = X

3.6 = X

1 = 60

0.6 = X

0.6 x 60 = X

36 = X

Therefore, it will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.

On weekday mornings, arrivals to the drive-up teller window occur at random, with an arrival rate of 24 customers per hour or 0.4 customers per minute.
a. What is the mean or expected number of customers that will arrive in a five-minute period?
b. Assume that the Poisson probability distribution can be used to describe the arrival process. Use the arrival rate in part (a) and compute the probabilities that exactly 0, 1, 2, and 3 customers will arrive during a five-minute period.
c. Delays are expected if more than three customers arrive during any five-minute period. What is the probability that delays will occur?
2. In the Willow Brook National Bank waiting line system (see Problem 1), assume that the service times for the drive-up teller follow an exponential probability distribution with a service rate of 36 customers per hour, or 0.6 customers per minute. Use the exponential probability distribution to answer the following questions:
a. What is the probability that the service time is one minute or less?
b. What is the probability that the service time is two minutes or less?
c. What is the probability that the service time is more than two minutes?

Answers

Answer:

1.

a. 2

b. 0.1353 probability that exactly 0 customers will arrive during a five-minute period, 0.2707 that exactly 1 customer will arrive, 0.2707 that exactly 2 customers will arrive and 0.1805 that exactly 3 customers will arrive.

c. 0.1428 = 14.28% probability that delays will occur.

2.

a. 0.4512 = 45.12% probability that the service time is one minute or less.

b. 0.6988 = 69.88% probability that the service time is two minutes or less.

c. 0.3012 = 30.12% probability that the service time is more than two minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Which has the following solution:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

Question 1:

a. What is the mean or expected number of customers that will arrive in a five-minute period?

0.4 customers per minute, so for 5 minutes:

[tex]\mu = 0.4*5 = 2[/tex]

So 2 is the answer.

Question b:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.2707[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2707[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1805[/tex]

0.1353 probability that exactly 0 customers will arrive during a five-minute period, 0.2707 that exactly 1 customer will arrive, 0.2707 that exactly 2 customers will arrive and 0.1805 that exactly 3 customers will arrive.

Question c:

This is:

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

The values we have in item b, so:

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = 0.1353 + 0.2707 + 0.2707 + 0.1805 = 0.8572[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - 0.8572 = 0.1428[/tex]

0.1428 = 14.28% probability that delays will occur.

Question 2:

[tex]\mu = 0.6[/tex]

a. What is the probability that the service time is one minute or less?

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = 1 - e^{-0.6} = 0.4512[/tex]

0.4512 = 45.12% probability that the service time is one minute or less.

b. What is the probability that the service time is two minutes or less?

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = 1 - e^{-0.6(2)} = 1 - e^{-1.2} = 0.6988[/tex]

0.6988 = 69.88% probability that the service time is two minutes or less.

c. What is the probability that the service time is more than two minutes?

[tex]P(X > 2) = e^{-1.2} = 0.3012[/tex]

0.3012 = 30.12% probability that the service time is more than two minutes.

2250 g of nut mixture

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to use the ratio, we have to divide that 750 g by 3.

So, adding all of that up, the answer is 2250 g of nut mixture.

x = 150

5x + 3x + x

= 5(150) + 3(150) + (150)
