Does it pay to ask for a raise? A national survey of heads of households showed the percentage of those who asked for a raise and the percentage who got one. According to the survey, of the men interviewed, 21% had asked for a raise and 60% of the men who had asked for a raise received the raise. If a man is selected at random from the survey population of men, find the following probabilities. (Enter your answers to three decimal places.)

Does It Pay To Ask For A Raise? A National Survey Of Heads Of Households Showed The Percentage Of Those

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) P(man asked for a raise) = 0.21.

b) P(man received raise, given he asked for one) = 0.6.

c) P(man asked for raise and received raise) = 0.126.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Question a:

21% asked for a raise, so:

P(man asked for a raise) = 0.21.

Question b:

Event A: Asked for a raise.

Event B: Received a raise:

21% had asked for a raise and 60% of the men who had asked for a raise received the raise:

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.21, P(A \cap B) = 0.21*0.6[/tex], thus:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.21*0.6}{0.6} = 0.6[/tex]

P(man received raise, given he asked for one) = 0.6.

Question c:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.21*0.6 = 0.126[/tex]

P(man asked for raise and received raise) = 0.126.

Question: Consider the graph of f(x) = 5x + 1. Explain how to find the average rate of change between x = 0 and x = 4. What is the average rate of change?

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First plug in the x values.

y=5x+1

=(0)5+1

=1

y=5x+1

=(4)5+1

=21

Average rate of change = the change in the output divided by the change in the input.

Output change: 21-1=20

Input change: 4-0=4

20/4=5

20/4 = 5 sorry if its wrong

The sum of four consecutive odd integers is –72. Write an equation to model this situation, and find the values of the four integers.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

(x -3) +(x -1) +(x +1) +(x +3) = -72-21, -19, -17, -15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the even integer between the middle two odd integers. Then the sum of the four odd integers is ...

  (x -3) +(x -1) +(x +1) +(x +3) = -72

  4x = -72

  x = -18

The four integers are -21, -19, -17, -15.

_____

Additional comment

You could let x represent one of the integers. Often, people choose to let it represent the least of them. Then the equation becomes x +(x+2) +(x+4) +(x+6) = -72, so 4x = -84 and x = -21. This introduces a "subtract 12" step in the solution process that is unnecessary if x is chosen to be the average of the integers.

As the average, x is the sum divided by the number of them, so you know x=-72/4 = -18 immediately. Then you just have to find the nearest two odd integers below and above -18. You can do the whole problem mentally.

The number of ways = 10P6

The number of ways = [tex]\frac{10!}{10! - 6!}[/tex]

Rewrite the expression by factoring out (u-8).3u^2(u-8)-2(u-8)

Answers

The rewritten expression is [tex](u - 8)(3u^2 - 2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following expression:

[tex]3u^2(u - 8) - 2(u - 8)[/tex]

Factoring out (u-8)

Place (u-8) to the front, and then divide each term by (u-8). So

[tex]3u^2(u - 8) - 2(u - 8) = (u - 8)\left[\frac{3u^2(u - 8)}{u - 8} - \frac{2(u-8)}{u - 8}\right] = (u - 8)(3u^2 - 2)[/tex]

b. What is the total discount percent as compared to the original price?

Answers

Answer:

  a. $16.90

  b. 23.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. After the two discounts, the original price is multiplied by ...

  (1 -10%)(1 -15%) = 0.90×0.85 = 0.765

Then the original price is found from ...

  $12.93 = 0.765 × original price

  original price = $12.93 / 0.765 ≈ $16.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a blade, r = 24 cm

The sweeping angle is 120°.

We need to find the total area cleaned at one sweep of the blade. The area of sector is given by :

[tex]A=\dfrac{\theta}{360}\times \pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]A=\dfrac{120}{360}\times \pi \times 24^2\\\\=603.18\ cm^2[/tex]

(b) What is the probability that all three lines experience a surface finish problem between 24 and 41 hours of operation?

a) The probability that none of the lines experiences a surface finish problem in 41 hours of operation is 0.0498.

b)The probability that all three lines experience a surface finish problem between 24 and 41 hours of operation is 0.0346.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Mean = \frac{1}{\lambda} = 41\\P(X\leq x)= 1-e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X>x)= e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

a)

[tex]P(x> 41, y>41, Z>41) = (P(X>41))^{3}\\\\P(X>41)=e^{^{-\frac{41}{41}}}=e^{-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You just need a little number sense here. The total number who play sports is the number in the lower right of the table: 120.

The fraction who are males playing basketball is 42/120. Comparing that to 45/100, we see it cannot be 45%. (a) is false.

The fraction who are males is 72/120, more than half, so cannot be 40%. (b) is false.

Looking at males who play basketball, we have already determined the fraction 42/120 is well below 65%. (c) is false.

The fraction who play basketball is 54/120 = 45%. (d) is true.

Dale hikes up a mountain trail at 2 mph. Because Dale hikes at 4 mph downhill, the trip down the mountain takes 30 minutes less time than the trip up, even though the downward trail is 3 miles longer. How many mile did Dale hike in all?

Answers

Answer:

13 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

He hikes 4 mph downhill and it takes 30 minutes or 0.5 hours lesser than the trip uphill at 2 mph.

Thus, if the distance upward is x and we are told the distance downhill is 3 miles longer.

Then, since time = distance/speed, we have;

((x + 3)/4) + 0.5 = x/2

Multiply through by 4 to get;

x + 3 + (0.5 × 4) = 2x

x + 5 = 2x

2x - x = 5

x = 5 miles

Now, it means distance uphill = 5 miles and distance downhill = 5 + 3 = 8 miles

Thus, total distance covered = 8 + 5 = 13 miles
