Discussion Prompt: A fair coin is tossed twice and the number of heads is recorded. Jose says the P(1 head) = 1/2, while Jeff students says P(1 head) = 1/3. Explain in detail why Jose is correct.

Answers

Answer 1

Let H represent heads and T represent tails.

Writing HH means we get two heads and HT means we get heads first, then tails second, and so on.

We have these four possible outcomes when flipping two coins

HHHTTHTT

Of those four outcomes, two of them have exactly one head show up (HT and TH). The probability of getting exactly one head is 2/4 = 1/2, so this is why Jose is correct.

The 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of club members who use compost is given as (0.4, 0.507)

What is Confidence Interval?

This refers to the probability of a parameter falling across a set of values around the mean.

What is the value of x in the equation 1/5x - 2/3y = 30, when y = 15?

Answers

Answer:

x = (-150)/49

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

49 x + 150 = 0

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Subtract 150 from both sides:

49 x + (150 - 150) = -150

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

150 - 150 = 0:

49 x = -150

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of 49 x = -150 by 49:

(49 x)/49 = (-150)/49

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

49/49 = 1:

Answer: x = (-150)/49

Enter your answer to 5 decimal places if necessary. Use a calculator.
A
-50, 35, -24.5,..;5th term
The 5th term of the sequence is 70

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term here is -50 and the common ratio is 0.70.  Note that the second term is 0.70(50) = 35.

The formula a(n) = a(0)*r^(n -1) becomes  a(n) = -50*0.70^(n -1), and so

the 5th term is a(5) = -50*0.70^4 = -12.005

28 decreased by 2.6%

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

28 decreased by 2.6%

First we need to determine the percentage decrease such as:

Percentage decrease = 2.6% of 28

                                     = 2.6/100 × 28

                                     = 0.026 × 28

                                     = 0.73

New value can be determined using the formula

New vaue = 28 - percentage decrease

                 = 28 - 0.73

                 = 27.27

Find the length of the line segment formed by the points (2, 3) and (2, 5)

Answers

Answer:

2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The points are  (2, 3) and (2, 5)

x1= 2

y1= 3

x2= 2

y2= 5

substitute into the distance between two points formula

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

d=√((2-2)²+(5-3)²)

d=√(2)²)

d=√4

d= 2 units

Hence the length is 2 units

The size of a jar of coffee is increased by one 1/5. The new size is later reduced by 1/5
Is the new jar smaller, the same size or larger than the original?

Answers

Answer:

Smaller

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: say the original size is 100

increasing 100 by 1/5 is the same as increasing 100 by 20, so the new size is 120

reducing 120 by 1/5 is the same as reducing 120 by 24, so now the new size is  96.

An aircraft seam requires 20 rivets. The seam will have to be reworked if any of these rivets is defective. Suppose rivets are defective independently of one another, each with the same probability. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) If 16% of all seams need reworking, what is the probability that a rivet is defective

Answers

Answer:

probability that a rivet is defective is 0.00868

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

rivets = 20

all seam need reworking P = 16% = 0.16

solution

we consider here probability of a defective rivet = p

and 0.16 = P [Seam needs reworking) = P (at least one rivet in the seam is defective)

so that for non-defective = 1 - P [all the rivets are non-defective]

and that will be here as = 1 - P [rivet 1 is non-defective, rivet 2 is non-defective, rivet 3 is non-defective,...............,rivet 20 is non-defective]

= [tex]1 - (p})^{20}[/tex]     ....................1

so

1-0.16 = [tex]1 - (p})^{20}[/tex]

0.84 = [tex]1 - (p})^{20}[/tex]

[tex]0.84^{\frac{1}{20}}[/tex] = 1 - p

solve it we get

p = 0.00868

so, probability that a rivet is defective is 0.00868

Answers

Answer:

Kiara is correct

.............

Kiara says that the slope of the line between points B and C is the same as the slope of the line between points A and B is Correct.

What is Slope?

A line's slope is determined by how its y coordinate changes in relation to how its x coordinate changes. y and x are the net changes in the y and x coordinates, respectively. Therefore, it is possible to write the

change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate as,

m = Δy/Δx where, m is the slope

Given:

From the figure

Slope between A and B = rise/ run 3/3 = 1

and, slope between B and C = 5/5 = 1

So, the slope between A and B is same as the slope between B and C.

Hence, Kiara has correct statement.
