A technology company is forming a task force of six members to deal with urgent quality issues. The positions will be filled by randomly chosen qualified applicants. The qualified applicants consist of five managers and ten engineers.

Required:
a. What is the probability that the chosen applicants are either all managers or all engineers?
b. What is the probability that the number of managers is the same as the number of engineers on the task force?
c. What is the expected number of engineers chosen?
d. What is the probability that at least one manager is chosen for the task force?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 0.042 = 4.2% probability that the chosen applicants are either all managers or all engineers.

b. 0.2398 = 23.98% probability that the number of managers is the same as the number of engineers on the task force.

c. The expected number of engineers chosen is 4.

d. 0.958 = 95.8% probability that at least one manager is chosen for the task force.

Step-by-step explanation:

The positions are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

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]

In this question:

5 + 10 = 15 applicants, which means that [tex]N = 15[/tex]

10 are engineers, which means that [tex]k = 10[/tex]

Six members are chosen, which means that [tex]k = 6[/tex]

a. What is the probability that the chosen applicants are either all managers or all engineers?

Not possible having all managers(five applicants are manager, while there are 6 open positions), so this is P(X = 6), that is, all engineers.

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = h(6,15,6,10) = \frac{C_{10,6}*C_{5,0}}{C_{15,6}} = 0.042[/tex]

0.042 = 4.2% probability that the chosen applicants are either all managers or all engineers.

b. What is the probability that the number of managers is the same as the number of engineers on the task force?

3 engineers, so this is P(X = 3).

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = h(3,15,6,10) = \frac{C_{10,3}*C_{5,3}}{C_{15,6}} = 0.2398[/tex]

0.2398 = 23.98% probability that the number of managers is the same as the number of engineers on the task force.

c. What is the expected number of engineers chosen?

The expected value of the hypergeometric distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{nk}{N}[/tex]

So

[tex]E(X) = \frac{6(10)}{15} = 4[/tex]

The expected number of engineers chosen is 4.

d. What is the probability that at least one manager is chosen for the task force?

At most five engineers, which is:

[tex]P(X \leq 5) = 1 - P(X = 6)[/tex]

Since in item a. we already have P(X = 6).

[tex]P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.042 = 0.958[/tex]

0.958 = 95.8% probability that at least one manager is chosen for the task force.

The edge roughness of slit paper products increases as knife blades wear. Only 2% of products slit with new blades have rough edges, 3% of products slit with blades of average sharpness exhibit roughness, and 4% of products slit with worn blades exhibit roughness. If 25% of the blades in the manufacturing are new, 60% are of average sharpness, and 15% are worn, what is the proportion of products that exhibit edge roughness

Answers

Answer:

The proportion of products that exhibit edge roughness is 0.029 = 2.9%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of products that exhibit edge roughness:

2% of 25%(new blades).

3% of 60%(average sharpness).

4% of 15%(worn). So

[tex]p = 0.02*0.25 + 0.03*0.6 + 0.04*0.15 = 0.029[/tex]

The proportion of products that exhibit edge roughness is 0.029 = 2.9%.

Claims from Group A follow a normal distribution with mean 10,000 and standard deviation 1,000. Claims from Group B follow a normal distribution with mean 20,000 and standard deviation 2,000. All claim amounts are independent of the other claims. Fifty claims occur in each group. Find the probability the total of the 100 claims exceeds 1,530,000.

Answers

Answer:

0.0287 = 2.87% probability the total of the 100 claims exceeds 1,530,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

n instances of a normal variable:

For n instances of a normal variable, the mean is [tex]n\mu[/tex] and the standard deviation is [tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

Sum of normal variables:

When two normal variables are added, the mean is the sum of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Group A follow a normal distribution with mean 10,000 and standard deviation 1,000. 50 claims of group A.

This means that:

[tex]\mu_A = 10000*50 = 500000[/tex]

[tex]s_A = 1000\sqrt{50} = 7071[/tex]

Group B follow a normal distribution with mean 20,000 and standard deviation 2,000. 50 claims of group B.

This means that:

[tex]\mu_B = 20000*50 = 1000000[/tex]

[tex]s_B = 2000\sqrt{50} = 14142[/tex]

Distribution of the total of the 100 claims:

[tex]\mu = \mu_A + \mu_B = 500000 + 1000000 = 1500000[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_A^2+s_B^2} = \sqrt{7071^2+14142^2} = 15811[/tex]

Find the probability the total of the 100 claims exceeds 1,530,000.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 1530000. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{1530000 - 1500000}{15811}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.9[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.9[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9713

1 - 0.9713 = 0.0287

0.0287 = 2.87% probability the total of the 100 claims exceeds 1,530,000.

find the area of this unusual shape

Answers

Answer:

38 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape consists of a rectangle and two triangles.

Area of the shape = area of rectangle + area of the two triangles

✔️Area if the rectangle = L × W

L = 8 + 2 = 10 ft

W = 3 ft

Area of rectangle = 10 × 3 = 30 ft²

✔️Area of the large triangle = ½ × bh

b = 4 ft

h = 3 ft

Area of large triangle = ½ × 4 × 3 = 6 ft²

✔️Area of the small triangle = ½ × bh

b = 2 ft

h = 2 ft

Area of large triangle = ½ × 2 × 2 = 2 ft²

✅Area of the shape = 30 + 6 + 2 = 38 ft²

H0: Call lengths outside normal customer roaming areas follows normal distribution

H1: Call lengths outside normal customer roaming areas do not follows normal distribution

Mean, μ = 14.3

Standard deviation, σ = 3.7

From the frequencies Given :

Expected values can be calculated :

Observed values :

For x = 5 ;

P(Z < (5 - 14.3) / 3.7)) * 400 = 2.391

For x = 10;

P(Z < (10 - 14.3) / 3.7)) * 400 = 46.644

For x = 15;

P(Z < (15 - 14.3) / 3.7)) * 400 = 180.960

For x = 20;

P(Z < (20 - 14.3) / 3.7)) * 400 = 145.32

For x = 25;

P(Z < (25 - 14.3) / 3.7)) * 400 = 23.92

For x = 30;

P(Z < (30 - 14.3) / 3.7)) * 400 = 0.766

Which characteristic of dilations compares segment F'H' to segment FH

Answers

Answer:

[tex]|F'H'| = 2 * |FH|[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]E = (0,1)[/tex]             [tex]E' = (-1,2)[/tex]

[tex]F = (1,1)[/tex]             [tex]F' = (1,2)[/tex]

[tex]G = (2,0)[/tex]             [tex]G' =(3,0)[/tex]

[tex]H = (0,0)[/tex]            [tex]H' = (-1,0)[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (1,0)[/tex] -- center

[tex]k = 2[/tex] --- scale factor

See comment for proper format of question

Required

Compare FH to F'H'

From the question, we understand that the scale of dilation from EFGH to E'F'G'H is 2;

Irrespective of the center of dilation, the distance between corresponding segment will maintain the scale of dilation.

i.e.

[tex]|F'H'| = k * |FH|[/tex]

[tex]|F'H'| = 2 * |FH|[/tex]

To prove this;

Calculate distance of segments FH and F'H' using:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]

Given that:

[tex]F = (1,1)[/tex]             [tex]F' = (1,2)[/tex]

[tex]H = (0,0)[/tex]            [tex]H' = (-1,0)[/tex]

We have:

[tex]FH = \sqrt{(1- 0)^2 + (1- 0)^2}[/tex]

[tex]FH = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]FH = \sqrt{1 + 1}[/tex]

[tex]FH = \sqrt{2}[/tex]

Similarly;

[tex]F'H' = \sqrt{(1 --1)^2 + (2 -0)^2}[/tex]

[tex]F'H' = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (2)^2}[/tex]

Distribute

[tex]F'H' = \sqrt{(2)^2(1 +1)}[/tex]

[tex]F'H' = \sqrt{(2)^2*2}[/tex]

Split

[tex]F'H' = \sqrt{(2)^2} *\sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]F'H' = 2 *\sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]F'H' = 2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]|F'H'| = 2 * |FH|[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]2\sqrt 2 = 2 * \sqrt 2[/tex]

[tex]2\sqrt 2 = 2\sqrt 2[/tex] --- true

Hence, the dilation relationship between FH and F'H' is::

[tex]|F'H'| = 2 * |FH|[/tex]

Probabilities

Given that if the local professional basketball team, the Sneakers, wins today's game, they have a 2/3 chance of winning their next game, while if they lose this game, they have a 1/2 chance of winning their next game, to determine, if there is a 50-50 chance of the Sneakers winning today's game, what are the chances that they win their next game, and determine, if they won today, what are the chances of winning the game after the next, you must perform the following calculations:

(2/3 + 1/2) / 2 = X1,666 / 2 = X0.58333 = X

((2/3 + 1/2 / 2) x 2/3 = X0.58333 x 0.666 = X0.3888 = X

Therefore, the chances that they win their next game are 58.33%, while if they won today, the chances of winning the game after the next are 38.88%.

The auto parts department of an automotive dealership sends out a mean of 6.3 special orders daily. What is the probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be exactly 3

Answers

Answer:

0.0765 = 7.65% probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be exactly 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the mean, which means that the poisson distribution is used to solve this question.

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.

The auto parts department of an automotive dealership sends out a mean of 6.3 special orders daily.

This means that [tex]\mu = 6.3[/tex]

What is the probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be exactly 3?

This is P(X = 3). So

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

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-6.3}*6.3^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0765[/tex]

0.0765 = 7.65% probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be exactly 3

The amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed with a mean of 0.954 grams and a standard deviation of 0.292 grams. Find the probability of randomly selecting a cigarette with 0.37 grams of nicotine or less. Round your answer to four decima

Answers

Let X be the random variable representing the amount (in grams) of nicotine contained in a randomly chosen cigarette.

P(X ≤ 0.37) = P((X - 0.954)/0.292 ≤ (0.37 - 0.954)/0.292) = P(Z ≤ -2)

where Z follows the standard normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. (We just transform X to Z using the rule Z = (X - mean(X))/sd(X).)

Given the required precision for this probability, you should consult a calculator or appropriate z-score table. You would find that

P(Z ≤ -2) ≈ 0.0228

You can also estimate this probabilty using the empirical or 68-95-99.7 rule, which says that approximately 95% of any normal distribution lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. This is to say,

P(-2 ≤ Z ≤ 2) ≈ 0.95

which means

P(Z ≤ -2 or Z ≥ 2) ≈ 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

The normal distribution is symmetric, so this means

P(Z ≤ -2) ≈ 1/2 × 0.05 = 0.025

which is indeed pretty close to what we found earlier.

is “x = -3” a function

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -3 is a vertical line at x= -3

Tow points on the line are

(-3,1) and (-3,2)

This means one x value goes to 2 different y values so it is not a function

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: The line x = -3 is a vertical or straight up and down line that is parallel to the y-axis. On the vertical line x = -3, when x = -3, y can be 0, 1, 2, -5, or any other number, there are in infinite number of possibilities.

The technical definition of a function is written as "a relation in which each element in the domain is paired with one and only one element in the range."

Answer:

  g(x) = 2(x +2)² +2

  vertex: (-2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is often easier to write the vertex form if the leading coefficient is factored from the variable terms:

  g(x) = 2(x² +4x) +10

Then the square of half the x-coefficient is added inside parentheses, and an equivalent amount is subtracted outside.

  g(x) = 2(x² +4x +4) +10 -2(4)

  g(x) = 2(x +2)² +2

Comparing to the vertex form, we see the parameters are ...

  a = 2, h = -2, k = 2

The vertex is (h, k) = (-2, 2).

Answers

Answer:

431.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a regular polygon = # of sides * side length of 1 side * apothem

We want to find the area of a regular polygon with 7 sides, an apothem of 8 meters, and a side length with 7.7 meters

So # of sides = 7

apothem = 8

side length = 7.7

so the area would equal 7 * 8 * 7.7 = 431.2

It says to round to the nearest tenth however 431.2 is already rounded to the nearest tenth

If components are arranged one after another to form a single path between the terminals and the components, the circuit is known as a series circuit. In this type of circuit, the current flows from the negative terminal to the positive terminal, passing through all the other components of the circuit. This means that the amount of energy passing through all the components in the series is the same. The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that when a single component In the path burns out, the entire circuit stops operating (e.g. Christmas tree lights). A parallel circuit consists of several paths connecting the different components. Each separate path is called a branch of the circuit. Current from the source divides and flows through the different branches. Unlike series circuits, if one of the components in the parallel circuit bums out, the other paths continue to operate. Parallel circuits are commonly used to connect appliances at home, so that each socket can function independently, For example, you dont have to turn on the light in your room for the TV socket to work.SummaryThe components of a circuit can be wired in two different ways: Series and parallel.The circuit with components arranged one after another to make a single path is called a (1).......
