Answer 1

Answer:

0.0677 = 6.77% probability that they will all be nonfiction

Step-by-step explanation:

The books are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

10 + 12 = 22 books.

She chooses 4 books, which means that [tex]n = 4[/tex]

12 nonfiction, which meas that [tex]k = 12[/tex]

What’s the probability that they will all be nonfiction?

This is P(X = 4). So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = h(4,22,4,12) = \frac{C_{12,4}*C_{10,0}}{C_{22,4}} = 0.0677[/tex]

0.0677 = 6.77% probability that they will all be nonfiction

Suppose a large shipment of televisions contained 9% defectives. If a sample of size 393 is selected, what is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 3%

Answers

Answer:

0.9624 = 96.24% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

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

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

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Suppose a large shipment of televisions contained 9% defectives

This means that [tex]p = 0.09[/tex]

Sample of size 393

This means that [tex]n = 393[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.09[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.09*0.91}{393}} = 0.0144[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 3%?

Proportion between 0.09 - 0.03 = 0.06 and 0.09 + 0.03 = 0.12, which is the p-value of Z when X = 0.12 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.06.

X = 0.12

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.12 - 0.09}{0.0144}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.08[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.08[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9812

X = 0.06

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.06 - 0.09}{0.0144}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.08[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.08[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0188

0.9812 - 0.0188 = 0.9624

0.9624 = 96.24% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 3%

I believe the answer is 7% but it says round to the nearest tenth of a percent so I am not sure if it is a decimal answer or not. Can someone help me out please?

Answers

Answer:   6.1% decrease

Note: It appears that your teacher doesn't want you to type in the percent sign, as that's already covered for you.

=========================================================

Explanation:

The salary decreased by 51500-48355 = 3145

Divide this over the initial salary to get 3145/51500 = 0.0611 which is approximate.

This converts to the percentage 6.11% and that rounds to 6.1%

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

As an alternative, you can use the formula method below

A = old value = 51500

B = new value = 48355

C = percent change when going from A to B

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%

C = [ (48355-51500)/51500 ] * 100%

C = (-3145/51500)*100%

C = -0.0611*100%

C = -6.11%

C = -6.1%

The negative C value indicates a percent decrease.

Hannah ran 12 laps for 8 days. How many laps did she run in total if she take a break of 1 complete day and 1 half day.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be - 9.75 laps (if runs 12 laps in 8 days) or 78 laps (if 12 laps each day for 8 days)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

a) Laps covered in 8 days = 12

interval = 1 and half day

total laps = ?

Solution:

To know the total laps with intervals we need to calculate the laps run each day :

= 12/8 laps per day

= 3/2 laps per day

Now multiply the daily run with days

= (3/2)*6.5              (due to 8 - 1.5 = 6,5 days)

= 9.75 laps

B) Given:

Laps covered in 8 days = 12*8 =96

interval = 1 and half day

total laps = ?

Solution:

To know the total laps with intervals we need to calculate the laps run each day :

= 96/8 laps per day

= 12laps per day

Now multiply the daily run with days

= 12*6.5              (due to 8 - 1.5 = 6,5 days)

= 78 laps

Answers

Answer:

25 boxes could be stacked safely on the pallet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many boxes could you stack safely on a pallet if the pallet is 5 feet deep, five feet across, every box is 1 x 1 and the maximum safe stacking height is 5 boxes, the following calculation should be performed:

Pallet = 5 x 5 = 25 square feet

Box = 1 x 1 = 1 square foot

25/1 = 25

Therefore, 25 boxes could be stacked safely on the pallet.

A small college has 1200 students and 80 professors. The college is planning to increase enrollment to 1450 students next year. How many new professors should be hired to keep the ratio of students to professors the same

Answers

The number of new professors needed to hire to keep the ratio of students and professors the same is 16.66  professors.

Given,

A small college has 1200 students and 80 professors.

The college is planning to increase enrollment to 1450 students next year.

We need to find how many new professors should be hired to keep the

ratio of students to professors the same.

What is meant by proportion?

If the two ratios are the same then we called it that they are in proportion.

Example:

4/6 = 10/15

2/3 = 2/3

Find the ratio between the students and professors before the increase in enrollment.

= Number of students / Number of professors

= 1200 / 80

Dividing by 8

= 150 / 10

= 15 / 1

This means one professor for 15 students.

Find the number of students after the increase in enrollment.

= 1450

Find the number of new students enrolled.

= 1450 - 1200

= 250

Since the ratio between the students and professor is 15 students for one professor.

For 250 new students, the number of new professors we need is:

= 250 ÷ 15

= 16.66

This means we need around 16.66 new professors.

Thus the number of new professors needed to hire to keep the ratio of students and professors the same is 16.66 professors.

A projectile is fired from ground level with an initial velocity of 35 m/s at an angle of 35° with the horizontal. How long
will it take for the projectile to reach the ground?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will work in the y-dimension only here. What we need to remember is that acceleration in this dimension is -9.8 m/s/s and that when the projectile reaches its max height, it is here that the final velocity = 0. Another thing we have to remember is that an object reaches its max height exactly halfway through its travels. Putting all of that together, we will solve for t using the following equation.

[tex]v=v_0+at[/tex]

BUT we do not have the upwards velocity of the projectile, we only have the "blanket" velocity. Initial velocity is different in both the x and y dimension. We have formulas to find the initial velocity having been given the "blanket" (or generic) velocity and the angle of inclination. Since we are only working in the y dimension, the formula is

[tex]v_{0y}=V_0sin\theta[/tex] so solving for this initial velocity specific to the y dimension:

[tex]v_{0y}=35sin(35)[/tex] so

[tex]v_{0y}=[/tex] 2.0 × 10¹ m/s

NOW we can fill in our equation from above:

0 = 2.0 × 10¹ + (-9.8)t and

-2.0 × 10¹ = -9.8t so

t = 2.0 seconds

This is how long it takes for the projectile to reach its max height. It will then fall back down to the ground for a total time of 4.0 seconds.

suppose △abc≅△xyz. what is the corresponding congruent part for each segment or angle?​

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given that ΔABC≅ΔXYZ

When two triangles are congruent, their corresponding parts are congruent

Because of that, it means vertex A in ΔABC is congruent to vertex X in ΔXYZ, vertex B is congruent to vertex Y, and vertex C is congruent to vertex Z

Since we don't have a picture of the triangles given, we can use the names of the triangles to find the corresponding parts

so, to find the corresponding congruent angle to <BCA:

B is the first letter in the angle, and the corresponding letter in ΔXYZ is Y.

C is the second letter in the angle, and the corresponding letter is Z.

A is the last letter in the angle, and the corresponding letter is X

so that means <YZX is congruent to <BCA

now let's do the same for <ZYX

Z is the first letter in the angle, and the corresponding letter that's in the same place in ΔABC is C

Y is the second letter in the angle, and the corresponding letter is B

X is the last letter in the angle, and the corresponding letter is A

So that means <CBA is congruent to <ZYX

Now to find corresponding sides:

We can still use the names of the triangles, ΔABC and ΔXYZ

so to find the corresponding side to AB,

in ΔABC, AB makes up the first and second letter of the name of the triangle

The corresponding side must also make up the first and second letter of the name of the triangle

in ΔXYZ, the letters X and Y make up the first and second letter

so that means XY must be corresponding to AB

finally,

we need to find the segment congruent to YZ

in ΔXYZ, YZ makes up the second and third letter of the name of the triangle

the corresponding side must also make up the second and third letter of the name of the triangle

in ΔABC,  the letters B and C make up the second and third letter in the triangle

So that means BC must be congruent to YZ

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the smaller circles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their diameters. The two smallest circles have diameters equal to 1/4 the diameter of the largest circle. Hence their areas are (1/4)^2 = 1/16 of that of the largest circle.

Similarly, the medium circle has a diameter half that of the largest circle, so its area is (1/2)^2 = 1/4 of the are of the largest circle.

The smaller circles subtract 2×1/16 +1/4 = 3/8 of the area of the largest circle. Then the shading is 1-3/8 = 5/8 of the area of the largest circle.

If sin ∅ = -sqrt{3} OVER 2 and π < ∅ < 3π OVER 2, what are the values of cos ∅ and tan ∅? What is ∅ in degrees and radians? Be sure to show and explain all work.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

sin ∅ = -(√3)/2

Note that

cos²∅ + sin²∅ = 1

cos²∅ = 1 - sin²∅

= 1 - (-√3 / 2)²

= 1 - (-√3)²/ 2²

= 1 - 3/4

= 1/4

cos²∅ = 1/4

Taking square root of both sides

cos∅ = 1/2

Note that tan∅ = sin∅/cos∅

therefore, tan∅ = -(√3)/2 ÷ 1/2

= -(√3)/2 × 2/1

= -√3

tan∅ = -√3

Since sin∅ = -√3 /2

Then ∅ = -60⁰

The value of ∅ for the given range (third quadrant) is 240⁰.

NB: sin∅ = sin(180-∅)

Also, since 180⁰ is π radians, then ∅ = 4π/3

Answer:

- 3.027

Step-by-step explanation:

First price = 10000 ; second price = 700

Number of tickets sold = 11000

Ticket cost = $4

Probability that a ticket wins grand price = 1 / 11000

Probability that a ticket wins second price = 1 / 11000

X ____ 10000 _____ 700

P(x) ___ 1 / 11000 ___ 1/11000

Expected winning for a ticket buyer :

E(X) = Σx*p(x)

E(X) = (1/11000 * 10000) + (1/11000 * 700) - ticket cost

One allele results in normal synthesis of these molecules, while the other allele prevents synthesis from occurring. Individuals who are heterozygous for this gene produce intermediate amounts of cardenolides. In a population of Asclepias where both alleles of the cardenolide synthesis allele are present the following phenotypes were observed: Normal cardenolide concentration: 241 Intermediate cardenolide concentration: 720 No cardenolides: 39What are the expected phenotypic frequencies in this population?A.Normal: 0.36; Intermediate: 0.62; No cardenolides: 0.02B. Normal: 0.36; Intermediate: 0.48; No cardenolides: 0.16C. Normal: 0.24; Intermediate: 0.48; No cardenolides: 0.04D. Normal: 0.50; Intermediate: 0.48; No cardenolides: 0.02E.
