Assume the probability that a given registered voter will vote in the presidential election is 63%. Approximate the probability using the normal distribution. Round your answer to four decimal places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.9319 = 93.19% probability that at least 88 out of 153 registered voters will vote in the presidential election.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

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

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

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

153 voters:

This means that [tex]n = 153[/tex]

Assume the probability that a given registered voter will vote in the presidential election is 63%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.63[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 153(0.63) = 96.39[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{153*0.63*0.37} = 5.97[/tex]

Consider the probability that at least 88 out of 153 registered voters will vote in the presidential election.

Using continuity correction, this is: [tex]P(X \geq 88 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 87.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 87.5.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{87.5 - 96.39}{5.97}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.49[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.49[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0681.

1 - 0.0681 = 0.9319

0.9319 = 93.19% probability that at least 88 out of 153 registered voters will vote in the presidential election.

Answers

Answer:

The time required is 60.3 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

initial amount, No = 0.3 g

rate, r = 1.15 % per day = 0.0115 per day

final amount, N = 0.15 g

Let the time is t.

[tex]N = No e^{-rt}\\\\0.15 = 0.3 e^{-0.0115 t}\\\\0.5 =e^{-0.0115 t}\\\\- 0.6931 = - 0.0115 t \\\\t = 60.3 days[/tex]

An angle measures 19.4° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Step-by-step explanation: x + (x + 14.4) = 90

2x + 14.4 = 90

2x = 75.6

x = 37.8  (one angle)

As a Mixed number: 7 1/4

You can pick either or

They just wanted you to add them all up 3 + 4 = 7 and then you have your 1/4 being 7 1/4

If you want it as a fraction you multiply and then add going clockwise. So we would multiply 4 by 7 = 28 plus 1 = 29 giving us 29/4.
Another example is 3 2/5. Multiply 5 by 3 which is 15 plus 2 will give us 17/5

To find the whole number you just divide 1 by 4 to get .25 so it would then be 7.25.
If it was 7 2/4 you would divide 2 by 4 and get 0.5 so it would be 7.5

When a closed curve is parameterized by {x[t], y[t]}, then as you advance along the curve in the direction of the parameterization, which way do the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point; in the direction you are going, or in the direction opposite to the direction you are going?

Answers

Answer:

In the direction you are going,

Explanation:

We know that the tangent to  {x[t], y[t]} are  {x'[t], y'[t]}. Since  {x'[t], y'[t]} are tangents at  {x[t], y[t]}, we know that the tangent at a point is always parallel to the direction of the function at that point and in the direction of the function. So, the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point in my direction of motion as I move along the curve.

So, the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point in the direction you are going.

A gambler is trying to determine whether or not to make a bet. If he bets and wins, he will profit $2000. If he bets and loses, he has to pay $300. The probability that he wins the bet is 15%. Find the gambler's expected value if he makes the bet.

Answers

Answer:

The gambler's expected value if he makes the bet is $45.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value:

15% probability of a profit of $2000.

100 - 15 = 85% probability of having to pay $300, that is, a loss of $300.

The expected value is each outcome multiplied by it's probability, so:

[tex]E = 0.15*2000 - 0.85*300 = 45[/tex]

The gambler's expected value if he makes the bet is $45.

Median = 35.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

16 25 24 19 33 25 34 46 37

33 42 40 37 34 49 73 46 45

The mean = ΣX / n

n = sample size ; ΣX = sum of values

The mean = 658 / 18

The mean = 36.56

The Median = 1/2(n+1)th term

1/2(18+1)th term = 1/2(19)th term = 9.5 term

Median = (9th + 10th) / 2 = (34 + 37) / 2 = 35.5

To know which option is correct, we shall obtained the product of the expression. The product of the expression can be obtained as follow:

(3x² + 4x– 7) (x – 2)

NOTE: (3x² + 4x– 7) will be multiplied by x and –2 as illustrated below:

x(3x² + 4x– 7) – 2(3x² + 4x– 7)

∠B= 102°, ∠Y= 32°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.

∠A +∠B +∠C= 180° (∠ sum of triangle)

50° +∠B +28°= 180°

∠B +78°= 180°

∠B= 180° -78°

∠B= 102°

∠X= 180° -100° (adj. ∠s on a str. line)

∠X= 80°

∠X +∠Z +∠Y= 180° (∠ sum of traingle)

80° +68° +∠Y= 180°

∠Y +148°= 180°

∠Y= 180° -148°

∠Y= 32°

Alternatively,

∠Z +∠Y= ∠W (ext. ∠ of triangle)
