A video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week. This week the list includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 dramas, and 2 mysteries. The store manager removes a copy of each of the 15 movies from the shelf, then randomly selects 3 of the 15 to show on the display monitors in the store. What is the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

32/1125

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome of event/Total outcome.

If a video rental store keeps a list of their top 15 movie rentals each week, the total outcome is 15.

If the list for the week includes 6 action, 4 comedies, 3 dramas, and 2 mysteries and the store manager removes a copy of each of the 15 movies from the shelf, then randomly selects 3 of the 15 to show on the display monitors in the store, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be calculated as shown;

Probability of selecting 2 comedies  = 4/15*4/15 = 16/225 (Note that the expected outcome in this case is 4).

Probability of selecting 1 action movie = 6/15 = 2/5

Hence, the probability that she selected 2 comedies and 1 action movie will be equivalent to 16/225*2/5 = 32/1125

Note that the rented movies will have to be returned hence reason for the replacement.

The solution system to 3y-2x=-9 and y=-2x+5

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{(3,-1)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well to find the solution the the given system,

3y - 2x = -9

y = -2x + 5

So to find x lets plug in -2x + 5 for y in 3y - 2x = -9.

3(-2x + 5) - 2x = -9

Distribute

-6x + 15 - 2x = -9

-8x + 15 = -9

-15 to both sides

-8x = -24

Divide -8 to both sides

x = 3

Now that we have x which is 3, we can plug in 3 for x in y = -2x + 5.

y = -2(3) + 5

y = -6 + 5

y = -1

So the solution is (3,-1).

The head of a computer science department is interested in estimating the proportion of students entering the department who will choose the new computer engineering option. Suppose there is not information about the proportion of students who might choose the option. What size sample should the department head take if he wants to be 95% confident that the estimate is within 0.10 of the true proportion

Answers

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

At 95% Confidence interval level,Level of significance [tex]\alpha[/tex] 0.05, the value of Z from the standard normal tables = 1.96

Margin of Error = 0.10

Let assume that the estimated proportion = 0.5

therefore; the sample size n can be determined by using the formula: [tex]n =(\dfrac{Z}{E})^2 \times p\times (1-p)[/tex]

[tex]n =(\dfrac{1.96}{0.1})^2 \times 0.5\times (1-0.5)[/tex]

[tex]n =(19.6)^2 \times 0.5\times (0.5)[/tex]

n = 96.04

Answer:

b = 9.5 , c = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For b

To find side b we use the sine rule

[tex] \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(A) } = \frac{ |b| }{ \sin(B) } [/tex]

a = 7

A = 23°

B = 32°

b = ?

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

[tex] \frac{7}{ \sin(23) } = \frac{ |b| }{ \sin(32) } [/tex]

[tex] |b| \sin(23) = 7 \sin(32) [/tex]

Divide both sides by sin 23°

[tex] |b| = \frac{7 \sin(32) }{ \sin(23) } [/tex]

b = 9.493573

b = 9.5 to the nearest tenth

For c

To find side c we use sine rule

[tex] \frac{ |a| }{ \sin(A) } = \frac{ |c| }{ \sin(C) } [/tex]

C = 125°

So we have

[tex] \frac{7}{ \sin(23) } = \frac{ |c| }{ \sin(125) } [/tex]

[tex] |c| \sin(23) = 7 \sin(125) [/tex]

Divide both sides by sin 23°

[tex] |c| = \frac{7 \sin(125) }{ \sin(23) } [/tex]

c = 14.67521

c = 15.0 to the nearest tenth

Given a dataset with the following properties:

mean = 50

median = 40

standard deviation = 5

What is the shape of the distribution?

Answers

Answer:

The distribution is positively skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

A measure of skewness is defined in such a way that the measure should always be zero when the distribution is symmetric and measure should be a pure number i.e independent of origin and units of measurement.

The shape of the distribution can be found by finding the coefficient of skewness.

The coefficient of skewness can be found by  

Sk= 3(Mean-Median)/ Standard Deviation

Sk= 3( 50-40)5= 30/5=6

The shape will be positively skewed.

In a positively skewed distribution the mean > median > mode. It has a long right tail.

Using the skewness formula, it is found that the distribution is right-skewed.

------------------

The skewness of a data-set with mean M, median [tex]M_e[/tex] and standard deviation s is given by:

[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s}[/tex]

If |S| < 0.5, the distribution is said to be symmetric.If S <-0.5, the distribution is left-skewed.If S > 0.5, the distribution is right-skewed.

------------------

Mean of 50, thus, [tex]M = 50[/tex]Median of 40, thus [tex]M_e = 40[/tex]Standard deviation of 5, thus, [tex]s = 5[/tex]

The coefficient is:

[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s} = \frac{3(50 - 40)}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6[/tex]

Thus, the distribution is right-skewed.

Answer:

Correct options are 2, 5 and 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given vertices of triangle are A(-3,-3), B(-3,2) and C(1,2).

Distance formula:

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

Using distance formula, we get

[tex]AB=\sqrt{(-3-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}[/tex]

[tex]AB=\sqrt{(0)^2+(5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]AB=\sqrt{25}[/tex]

[tex]AB=5[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]BC=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(2-2)^2}=4[/tex]

[tex]AC=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{16+25}=\sqrt{41}[/tex]

From the above calculation it is clear that AC>AB and AC>BC.

According to Pythagoras theorem, in a right angle triangle, the square of largest side is equal to the sum of squares of two small sides.

[tex]hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2[/tex]

[tex]AC^2=(\sqrt{41})^2=41[/tex]

[tex]AB^2+BC^2=(5)^2+4^2=24+16=41=AC^2[/tex]

So, given triangle is a right angle triangle and AC is its hypotenuse.

Therefore, the correct options are 2, 5 and 7.

Musah stands at the centre of a rectangular field. He first takes 50 steps north, then 25 steps

west and finally 50 steps on a bearing of 3150

.

i. Sketch Musah’s movement

ii. How far west is Musah’s final point from the centre?
iii. How far north is Musah’s final point from the centre?

iv. Describe how you would guide a JHS student to find the bearing and distance of

Musah’s final point from the centre. ​

Answers

Answer:

ii. 75 steps

iii. 75 steps

iv. 106 steps, and [tex]315^{0}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Musah's starting point be A, his waiting point after taking 50 steps northward and 25 steps westward be B, and his stopping point be C.

ii. From the second attachment, Musah's distance due west from A to C (AD) can be determined as;

bearing at B = [tex]315^{0}[/tex], therefore <BCD = [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

To determine distance AB,

[tex]/AB/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]/50/^{2}[/tex]   +  [tex]/25/^{2}[/tex]

          = 25000 + 625

          = 3125

AB = [tex]\sqrt{3125}[/tex]

     = 55.90

AB ≅ 56 steps

Thus, AC = 50 steps + 56 steps

               = 106 steps

From ΔACD,

Sin [tex]45^{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{106}[/tex]

⇒ x = 106 × Sin [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

      = 74.9533

     ≅ 75 steps

Musah's distance west from centre to final point is 75 steps

iii. From the secon attachment, Musah's distance north, y, can be determined by;

Cos [tex]45^{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{y}{106}[/tex]

⇒ y = 106 × Cos [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

      = 74.9533

      ≅ 75 steps

Musah's distance north from centre to final point is 75 steps.

iv. Musah's distance from centre to final point is AC = AB + BC

                                     = 50 steps + 56 steps

                                     = 106 steps

From ΔACD,

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{75}{75}[/tex]

          = 1.0

θ = [tex]Tan^{-1}[/tex]  1.0

 = [tex]45^{0}[/tex]

Musah's bearing from centre to final point = [tex]45^{0}[/tex] + [tex]270^{0}[/tex]

                                                           =  [tex]315^{0}[/tex]

If 8 residents of this city are selected at random, find the probability that the first 2 are 65 or older, the next 3 are 25-44 years old, the next 2 are 24 or younger, and the last is 45-64 years old.

Answers

Answer:

0.000014

Step-by-step explanation:

The chart is not provided so i will use an example chart to explain the answer. Here is a sample chart:

City X's Population by Age

0-24 years old 33%

25-44 years old 22%

45-64 years old 21%

65 or older 24%

In order to find probability of independent events we find the probability of each event occurring separately and then multiply the calculated probabilities together in the following way:

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

probability that the first 2 are 65 or older

Let A be the event that the first 2 are 65 or older

The probability of 65 or older 24% i.e. 0.24

So the probability that first 2 are 65 or older is:

0.24(select resident 1) * 0.24(select resident 2)

P(A) = 0.24 * 0.24

       = 0.0576

P(A) = 0.0576

probability that the next 3 are 25-44 years old

Let B be the event that the next 3 are 25-44 years old

25-44 years old 22%  i.e. 0.22

So the probability that the next 3 are 25-44 years old is:

0.22 * 0.22* 0.22

P(B) = 0.22 * 0.22 * 0.22

      = 0.010648

P(B) = 0.010648

probability that next 2 are 24 or younger

Let C be the event that the next 2 are 24 or younger

0-24 years old 33% i.e. 0.33

So the probability that the next 2 are 24 or younger is:

0.33 * 0.33

P(C) = 0.33 * 0.33

       = 0.1089

P(C) = 0.1089

probability that last is 45-64 years old

Let D be the event that last is 45-64 years old

45-64 years old 21%  i.e. 0.21

So the probability that last is 45-64 years old is:

0.21

P(D) = 0.21

So probability of these independent events is computed as:

P(A and B and C and D) = P(A) * P(B) * P(C) * P(C)

                                        = 0.0576 * 0.010648  * 0.1089  * 0.21

                                        = 0.000014

how do you figure out ratios? the problem is 12 quarters to 34 dollars. thanks

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a ratio, you put one number as the numerator and than one number as the denominator.

so it would be (12/34)=(x/68)

In this example I made the ratio you are comparing it to have 68 dollars, so when you solve for the amount of quarters you need it should be 24, since all of the numbers in this example are just being doubled.

To solve for x, you multiply 68 on both sides of the equation, 68×(12/34)=x

24=x

So this proves that this is how ratios, are used. It also does not matter what number you place on the numerator or denominator.

Sherina wrote and solved the equation. x minus 56 = 230. x minus 56 minus 56 = 230 minus 56. x = 174. What was Sherina’s error?

Answers

Answer:

  subtracting 56 instead of adding (or adding wrong)

Step-by-step explanation:

She wrote ...

  x - 56 = 230

  x - 56 - 56 = 230 -56 . . . . correct application of the addition property*

  x = 230 -56 . . . . . . . . . . . . incorrect simplification

Correctly done, the third line would be ...

  x -112 = 174

This would have made Sherina realize that the error was in subtracting 56 instead of adding it. The correct solution would be ...

  x - 56 + 56 = 230 + 56 . . . using the addition property of equality

  x = 286 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . correct simplification on both sides

__

There were two errors:

  1) incorrect strategy --- subtracting 56 instead of adding

  2) incorrect simplification --- simplifying -56 -56 to zero instead of -112

We don't know whether you want to count the error in thinking as the first error, or the error in execution where the mechanics of addition were incorrectly done.

_____

* The addition property of equality requires the same number be added to both sides of the equation. Sherina did that correctly. However, the number chosen to be added was the opposite of the number that would usefully work toward a solution.

. One sample has M = 18 and a second sample has M = 14. If the pooled variance for the two samples is 16, what is the value of Cohen’s d?

Answers

Answer:

Cohen's d : 1.00

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that M₁ = 18, and M₂ = 14. Given that the pooled variance for the these two samples are 16, S²Pooled = 16, and therefore S - pooled = 4.

The formula to solve for the value of Cohen's d is as follows,

d = M₁ - M₂ / S - pooled,

d = 18 - 14 / 4 = 4 / 4 = 1

Therefore the value of Cohen's d = 1

On Monday, she and her friends eat 4 pounds. So we have 8 now.

On Tuesday, she and her friends eat another 3 pounds. So we gave 5 now.

On Wednesday, her friend Mark gives her some more cheesecake so that she has 3 times as much as she had at the end of Tuesday. 5 * 3 = 15

On Thursday, some of her cheesecake goes bad, so she has the amount that she had at the end of Wednesday, but divided by 5. She had 15 at the end of Wednesday. 15/5 = 3.

On Friday, she gives 3 pounds to her dog. 5 - 3 = 2.

On Saturday, her mom gives her one more pound. 2 + 1 = 3.

On Sunday, she finally has 3 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we want to test the color distribution claim on the M&M’s website that a bag of plain M&M’s is made up of 10% blue, 10% orange, 10% green, 20% red, 20% yellow, and 30% brown. We select a sample of 400 plain M&M’s and found the following: Color Blue Orange Green Red Yellow Brown Frequency 30 48 55 66 70 131
Is there evidence to doubt the color distribution claimed by the website? Use =0.05

Answers

Answer:

Calculated χ² = 13.425

χ² (5,0.025) >14.45 and χ²(5,0.975) <1.24

The given data does not fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude there is no evidence to doubt the color distribution claimed by the website.

Step-by-step explanation:

Color             Blue      Orange     Green    Red   Yellow    Brown

Frequency     30         48              55        66         70         131

Expected      40           40              40        80          80        120

H0:  The bag of plain M&Ms is made up of 10% blue, 10% orange, 10% green, 20% red, 20% yellow, and 30% brown

Ha: The color distribution is not equal to  the distribution stated in the null hypothesis.

Calculate chi square

χ² = (30-40)² /40 + (48-40)²/40 + (55-40)²/40 + (66-80)²/80 + (70-80)²/80 + (131-120)²/120

χ² = 2.5 + 1.6 + 5.625 + 2.45 + 1.25= 13.425

The critical region for χ²  for 5 degrees of freedom with ∝= 0.05 is

χ² (5,0.025) >14.45 and χ²(5,0.975) <1.24

The given data does not fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude there is no evidence to doubt the color distribution claimed by the website.

which rate can you set 7 miles over 1 hour equal to in order to find the distance traveled in 49 hours at 7 miles per hour

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

time = 49 hours

speed =  7 miles/hour

speed = distance / time

∴ distance = speed × time

= 7 × 49

= 343 miles

Nights and Dragons From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne 1 I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts. 2 As I started my research, I discovered many skeptics. Scientists presented evidence to show why dragons could notand did notexist. They explained that it would be impossible for dragons to fly because they would be too big. They laughed at the idea of dragons breathing fire. They pointed out that no other animal has ever done this. They said that if dragons had lived, someone would have found remains somewhere in the world. No bones about it, there were plenty of logical explanations. It would have been easy for me to accept that the only place dragons ever existed was in the imaginations of those who believed. 3 I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed. 4 With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. I found that some experts disagreed with popular arguments against dragons. They suggested that a dragon could have four stomachs like a cow. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. This would give it the ability to fly. If it forced out air when diving toward the earth, it might release gases which could ignite into flame. When the animal died, the stomachs would release strong acids that would dissolve its dead body over time. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals. Not everyone agreed with these ideas, but many of the things we accept about dinosaurs and other extinct species started the same way. 5 I doubt we will ever truly know whether dragons existed. There may always be two sides to the fiery debate. Some will say the stories come from active imaginations. Some will believe with all their hearts that the legendary creatures roamed our ancient world. I don't know for certain which side to believe, but the sound and fury of a night like this makes me smile. It rekindles my childhood dreams and keeps the exciting possibility alive. Which sentence from paragraph 4 makes an explicit statement without offering any implicit suggestions? With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research.
