Carlos has chosen twelve different compact discs (CDs) he would like to buy. Four are rap music, five are country music, and three are heavy metal music. Carlos then randomly selects five of the 12 CDs to purchase. What is the probability that his purchase includes at least one CD from each of the three categories

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

185/198

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the are 12 Cd and we require them to be selected in 5 ways, the number of selections is ¹²C₅ = 12 × 11 × 10 × 9 × 8/5! = 95040/120 = 792 ways

Since we have Four are rap music, five are country music, and three are heavy metal music, the number of ways to select them in groups of five so as to have at least one of each CD from each category, we have

For the first selection 3 of one category, and 1 each of the other categories.

The second selection is 2 each of two categories and 1 of the last category.

So, doing this for each category, we have

⁴C₃ × ⁵C₁ × ³C₁ + ⁴C₂ × ⁵C₂ × ³C₁ + ³C₃ × ⁴C₁ × ⁵C₁ + ³C₂ × ⁴C₂ × ⁵C₁ + ⁵C₃ × ⁴C₁ × ³C₁ + ⁵C₂ × ³C₂ × ⁴C₁

= (4 × 3 × 2/3! × 5 × 3) + (4 × 3/2! × 5 × 4/2! × 3) + (1 × 4 × 5) + (3 × 2/2! × 4 × 3/2! × 5) + (5 × 4 × 3/2! × 4 × 3) + (5 × 4/2! × 3 × 2/2! × 4)

= 360/6 + 720/4 + 20 + 360/4 + 720/2 + 120/4

= 60 + 180 + 20 + 90 + 360 + 30

= 740 ways

So, the required probability is P = number of ways of selecting at least one CD/ total number of ways = 740/792 = 185/198

In a survey of women in a certain country the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches answer the followinv questions about the specified normal distribution

Answers

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In a survey of women in a certain country ( ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches.  Answer the following questions about the specified normal distribution.  (a) What height represents the 99th percentile?  (b) What height represents the first quartile?  (Round to two decimal places as needed)

Solution :

Let the random variable X represents the height of women in a country.

Given :

X is normal with mean, μ = [tex]62.9[/tex] inches and the standard deviation, σ = [tex]2.81[/tex] inches

Let,

[tex]$Z=\frac{X - 62.9}{2.81}$[/tex] , then Z is a standard normal

a). Let the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile is = a

The point a is such that,

[tex]$P(X<a)=0.99$[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{a-62.9}{2.81} \right) = 0.99$[/tex]

From standard table, we get : [tex]P( Z < 2.3263) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(a-62.9)}{281} = 2.3263$[/tex]

  [tex]$a= (2.3263 \times 2.81 ) +62.9$[/tex]

     = 6.536903 + 62.9

     = 69.436903

     = 69.5 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile = 69.5 inches.

b). Let b = height represents the first quartile.

It is given by :

[tex]P( X < b) =0.25[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81} \right) = 0.25$[/tex]

From the standard normal table,

[tex]P( Z < -0.6745) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81}= 0.6745$[/tex]

[tex]$b=(0.6745 \times 2.81) +62.9$[/tex]

  = 1.895345 + 62.9

   = 64.795345

   = 64.8 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the 1st quartile is 64.8 inches.

What is the distance between (1, 9) and (1, -4)? Use the distance formula.

D=(x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2

Answers

Answer:

D. 13

Step-by-step explanation:

You just have to plug in numbers then solve.

(1,9) and (1,-4). Every coordinate is placed as (x,y)

(1,9) is labeled as (x1, y1)

(1,-4) is labeled as (x2,y2)

Now plug in the numbers.

d= Square root of (1-1)^2 + (-4-9)^2

d= Square root of 1^2 +-13^2

d= Square root of 1+169

d= Square root of 170

d= 13.04

Rounded to a whole number, the answer is 13

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to substitute the values in the distance formula,in this case x2 is 1,x1 is 1,y2 is -4 and y1 is 9

d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

=√(1-1)²+(-4-9)²

=√(0)²+(-13)²

=√169

=13

If the amount of waking time 4 year old children spend with their fathers each day is 42 minutes while the daily waking time spent in daycare is 6 hours, what is the ratio of time with father to time in daycare?

Answers

Answer:

7/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the question is phrased such that it asks "the ratio of time with father to....", we know to put the time with father on top, or first. Similarly, since it is asked to put the ratio of time with the father to the time in daycare, we can put the daycare amount second/on the bottom. Therefore, we can write the ratio as

(42 minutes)/(6 hours)

To make both of these in terms of minutes to simplify it, we know that 60 minutes = 1 hour, so 1 hour / 60 minutes =1 . Since multiplying something by 1 keeps it the same, we can multiply our ratio by this amount. We want to multiply with the hour on top so the hours cancel out, as so:

[tex]\frac{42 minutes}{6 hours} * \frac{1 hour}{60 minutes} = \frac{42 minutes * hours}{360 minutes * hours} = \frac{42}{360}[/tex]

To simplify this even further, we can note that 6 is a factor of both 42 and 360*, so we can multiply this fraction by (1/6) / (1/6) to get

(42/360) * (1/6)/(1/6) = 7/60 as our final answer

If this doesn't come up immediately, you can always find the greatest common factor by listing the factors of each number and finding the highest one that fits both, e.g.

for 42: 42, 21, 14, 7 , 6...

for 360: 360,180, ... 6,5....

Solve the simple interest formula, I = Prt, for P. (2 points)

P = Irt

P equals r over i t

P equals i over r t

Answers

Answer:

t= i/pr

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given that the amount of simple interest earned is given by the formula, i= prt

The above formula is an example of a literal equation.

We want to solve this formula for T.

But we can observe that the product of two letters  are multiplying the letter T.

So we multiply both sides of the literal equation by the reciprocal of PR witch is 1/PR to obtain, I*1/PR=*PRT

This implies that, i/pr=t

We can rewrite this as, t=i/pr

Therefore the correct answer is C.

P equals I over r t

A certain country is divided into 5 provinces. Each province consists entirely of Progressives and Traditionalists. If each province contains the same number of Traditionalists and the number of Traditionalists in any given province is 1/10 the total number of Progressives in the entire country, what fraction of the country is Traditionalist

Answers

Answer:

one third  (1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have 5 provinces.

Each province contains the same number of Traditionalists, let's say that there are T traditionalists per province, thus, there are:

5*T in the country.

now we know that in each province, the number of traditionalists is equal to 1/10 of the total number of progressives in the entire country.

If there are a total of P progressives in the entire country, we will have that:

T = P/10

Then the total number of traditionalists in the entire country is:

5*T = 5*(P/10) = P/2

So in the whole country, there are P progressives and P/2 traditionalists.

So the total population is:

total = P + P/2 = (3/2)*P

We want to know what fraction of the country is traditionalist, this is equal to the quotient between the traditionalist population, P/2, and the total population, (3/2)*P

This is:

[tex]c = \frac{P/2}{(3/2)*P} = 1/3[/tex]

So one third of the country is traditionalist.

what is the solution to Y=-2x²+4x+8

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{(2, 8)}[/tex]

Solve by setting the two equations equal to each other:

-2x² + 4x + 8 = -4x + 16

Move all terms to one side:

-2x² + 4x + 4x + 8 - 16 = 0

Simplify:

-2x² + 8x - 8 = 0

Factor out a negative 2 from each term:

-2(x² - 4x + 4) = 0

Factor:

-2(x - 2)² = 0

Set the factor equal to 0 to solve:

(x - 2)² = 0

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

Substitute this value of x into an equation to find the shared y value:

y = -4(2) + 16 = 8
