One of two small classrooms is chosen at random with equally likely probability, and then a student is chosen at random from the chosen classroom. Classroom #1 has 5 boys and 11 girls. Classroom #2 has 15 boys and 9 girls. What is the probability that Classroom #2 was chosen at random, given that a girl was chosen? Your answers should be rounded to 4 digits after the decimal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that  class two has been chosen . So the probability of A would be P (A) = 1/2= 0.5

Now class two has 9 girls out of total 24 students . So the probability of chosing the girl would be= P (B=) 9/24= 0.375

So the probability that Classroom #2 was chosen at random, given that a girl was chosen is given by = P(A) . P(B)= 0.5 * 0.375= 0.1875

Another way of finding the probability that Classroom #2 was chosen at random, given that a girl was chosen is by drawing a tree diagram.

P (1/2) Class 1 ------------------------5 boys

                      -------------------------11 girls  (11/16)

P (1/2)  Class 2 -------------------------15 boys

                     -----------------------9 girls  P (9/24)   Class 2 was chosen (0.5) *9/24

A certain​ animal's body temperature has a mean of 94.72° F and a standard deviation of 0.57°F. Convert the given temperatures to z scores.

a. 93.52 °F  b. 95.22 °F      c. 94.72 °F

Answer:

a. z = - 2.1053

b. z = 0.87719

c. z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The population mean μ = 94.72

The standard deviation σ = 0.57

the formula for calculating the standard normal z score, which can be represented as:

[tex]z= \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For  a.

The sample mean [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 93.52

The z score can be computed as follows:

[tex]z= \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z= \dfrac{93.52 - 94.72}{0.57}[/tex]

[tex]z= \dfrac{-1.2}{0.57}[/tex]

z = - 2.1053

For  b.

The sample mean [tex]\bar x[/tex]  =  95.22    

[tex]z= \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z= \dfrac{95.22 - 94.72}{0.57}[/tex]

[tex]z= \dfrac{0.5}{0.57}[/tex]

z = 0.87719

For  c.

The sample mean [tex]\bar x[/tex]  = 94.72

[tex]z= \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z= \dfrac{94.72 - 94.72}{0.57}[/tex]

[tex]z= \dfrac{0}{0.57}[/tex]

z = 0

A spinner has 10 equally sized sections, 5 of which are gray and 5 of which are blue. The spinner is spun twice. What is the probability that the first spin lands on gray and the second spin lands on blue? Write your answer as a fraction in the simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Sections = 10[/tex]

[tex]n(Gray) = 5[/tex]

[tex]n(Blue) = 5[/tex]

Required

Determine P(Gray and Blue)

Using probability formula;

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]

Calculating P(Gray)

[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{n(Gray)}{Sections}[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Calculating P(Gray)

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{n(Blue)}{Sections}[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Substitute these values on the given formula

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]

[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

3^2 + (-8)^2 + 3*(-8)

9 + 64 - 24

73 - 24

49

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the polynomial:

[tex]x^2+y^2+xy[/tex]

We want to evaluate when x=3 and y= -8. Therefore, we must substitute 3 for each x and -8 for each y.

[tex](3)^2+(-8)^2+(3*-8)[/tex]

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

Solve the parentheses first. Multiply 3 and -9.

3*-8=-24

[tex](3)^2+(-8)^2 + -24[/tex]

[tex](3)^2+(-8)^2-24[/tex]

Now, solve the exponents.

3^2= 3*3 =9

[tex]9+ (-8)^2 -24[/tex]

-8^2= -8*-8= 64

[tex]9+64-24[/tex]

Add 9 and 64

[tex]73-24[/tex]

Subtract 24 from 73

In a genetic experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 436 green peas and 171 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of 3/4 that was expected? The probability of getting a green pea is approximately: Is the probability reasonably close to 3/4?

Answer:

The  probability is  [tex]P(g) =0.72[/tex]

Yes the result is reasonably close

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  number of  of  green peas is  [tex]g = 436[/tex]

     The number of yellow peas is  [tex]y = 171[/tex]

   The sample size is  [tex]n = 171 + 436 = 607[/tex]

The probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is mathematically represented as

       [tex]P(g) = \frac{g}{n}[/tex]

        [tex]P(g) = \frac{436}{607}[/tex]

        [tex]P(g) =0.72[/tex]

Comparing  [tex]P(g) =0.72[/tex]  to   [tex]\frac{3}{4} = 0.75[/tex] we see that the result is reasonably close

A basketball player scored 33 points during a game by shooting 1-point free throws, 2-point field goals, and 3-point field goals. The player scored 17 times. She scored 3 more 2-point field goals than 1-point free throws. The system of equations below represents the situation, where x is the number of 1-point free throws, y is the number of 2-point field goals, and z is the number of 3-point field goals. x + y + z = 17 x + 2y + 3z = 33 y – x = 3

Answers

Answer:

No. of 1 pt free throws = 5, No. of 2 pt goals = 8, No. of 3 pt goals = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations : x + y + z = 17 [ Total times taken to score ]

1x + 2y + 3z = 33 [ Total Score ]

Also, y = x + 3

Putting the value of 'y' in both equations :

x + (x + 3)+ z = 17 → 2x + 3 + z = 17 → 2x + z = 14  (i)

1x + 2 (x + 3) + 3z = 33 →  x + 2x + 6 + 3z = 33 → 3x + 3z = 27 (ii)

Solving these equations :

From (i), z = 14 - 2x

Putting this value in (ii), 3x + 3(14 - 2x) = 27 → 3x + 42 - 6x = 27

42 - 3x = 27 → 3x = 15 → x = 5

y = x + 3 = 5 + 3 → y = 8

z = 17 - x - y → z = 17 - 5 - 8 = 17 - 13 → z = 4

Suppose a triangle has two sides of length 33 amd 37, and that the angle between these two sides is 120°. What is the length of the third side of the triangle

Answers

Answer:

c = 60.65 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The two sides of a triangle are 33 cm and 37 cm.

The angle between these two sides is 120°.

We need to find the length of the third side of the triangle. Let c is the third side. Using cosine rule,

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos C[/tex]

a = 33 cm, b = 37 cm and C is 120°

So,

[tex]c^2=(33)^2+(37)^2-2\times 33\times 37\cos (120)\\\\c=60.65\ cm[/tex]

So, the length of the third side of the triangle is 60.65 cm.

Marco purchased a large box of comic books for $300. He gave 15 of the comic books to his brother and then sold the rest on an internet website for $330 making a profit , making a profit of $1.50 on each one.how many comic books were in the box? what was the original price of each comic book (assuming they all cost the same amount)?​

Answers

Answer: There are 75 books.

Price of each book = $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of books in the box.

Then as per given,

Cost of x books = $300

Cost of one book = [tex]\$(\dfrac{300}x)[/tex]

Books left after giving 15 of them = x-15

Selling price of (x-15) books=  $330

Selling price of one book = [tex]\$(\dfrac{330}{x-15})[/tex]

Profit on each book= $1.50

Profit = selling price - cost price

[tex]\Rightarrow 1.50=\dfrac{330}{x-15}-\dfrac{300}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50=\dfrac{330(x)-300(x-15)}{x(x-15)}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50=\dfrac{330x-300x+4500}{x^2-15x}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50(x^2-15x)=30x+4500\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50x^2-22.5x=30x+4500\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50x^2-52.5x-4500=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50x^2-52.5x-4500=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-25x-3000=0\ \ [\text{divide by 1.5}][/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow (x+40)(x-75)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=-40,75[/tex]

Number of books cannot be negative.

So, there are 75 books.

Price of each book = [tex]\dfrac{300}{75}=\$4[/tex]

So price of each book = $4.

Answer:

2 * 3 + 4 * 5 = 26

5 * 7 + 1 * 8 = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

_ * _ + _ * _ = _ _

Required

Fill in the boxes with digits 0 to 9

From the question we understand that the result must be two digits i.e. _ _

To solve this, we'll make use of trial by error method:

Fill the first two boxes wit 2 and 3: _ * _ becomes 2 * 3

Fill the next two boxes with 4 and 5: _ * _ becomes 4 * 5

So,we have

2 * 3 + 4 * 5

6 + 20

26

Hence, the first combination is 2 * 3 + 4 * 5 = 26

Another possible combination is:

Fill the first two boxes wit 5 and 7: _ * _ becomes 5 * 7

Fill the next two boxes with 1 and 8: _ * _ becomes 1 * 8

So,we have

5 * 7 + 1 * 8

35 + 8

43

Hence, another combination is 5 * 7 + 1 * 8 = 43

Note that; there are more possible combinations

Answers

Answer:

The percentage is  k  =  2.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = 47[/tex]

    The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 14[/tex]

Given that the sales are normally distributed and that students at a certain school who sell at least 75 magazine subscriptions win a prize then the  percent of the fourth grade students receive a prize is mathematically represented as

     [tex]P(X > 75) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{75 - \mu }{\sigma })[/tex]

Generally

     [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]

So

   [tex]P(X > 75) = P(Z > \frac{75 - 47 }{14 })[/tex]

   [tex]P(X > 75) = P(Z > 2)[/tex]

From the standardized normal distribution table  

      [tex]P(Z > 2) =0.023[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X > 75) = 0.023[/tex]

The  percentage of the fourth grade students receive a prize is  

  k =  0.023 * 100

Answers

Answer:

85.36 far north from the center

10.36 far east from the center

Step-by-step explanation:

The extra direction taken in the north side is x

X/sin(360-315)=50/sin 90

Sin 90= 1

X/sin 45= 50

X= sin45 *50

X= 0.7071*50

X= 35.355 steps

X= 35.36

Then the west direction traveled

West =√(50² - 35.355²)

West = √(2500-1249.6225)

West= √1250.3775

West= 35.36 steps

But this was taken in an opposite west direction

From the center

He is 35.36 +50

= 85.36 far north from the center

And

25-35.36=-10.36

10.36 far east from the center

b) Means: 6 and 16; Extremes: 24 and 4

c) Means: 8 and 8; Extremes: 4 and 16

d) Means: 50 and 3; Extremes: 6 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The Means and Extremes in a proportion are defined based on the writing the proportion in one lie using colons the indicate the fraction, like in:

a : b = c : d The extremes values here are those that you see at the extreme left and extreme right of that expression. That is: a, and d.

The Means are the values that appear in the middle of the one line expression, that is: b and c.

Recall as well that the proportion can also be written with fractions:

a : b = c : d  is the same as:   a / b = c / d

so convert the expression to a one line with colons when the question comes in fraction form, and that way you can answer.

If you randomly select a card from a well-shuffled standard deck of 52 cards, what is the probability that the card you select is a heart or Ace

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of Cards = 52

Required

Determine  the probability of picking a heart or ace

Represent Ace with Ace and Heart = H

In a standard pack of cards; there are

[tex]n(A) = 4[/tex]

[tex]n(H) = 13[/tex]

[tex]n(A\ and\ H) = 1[/tex]

[tex]Total = 52[/tex]

Because the events are non mutually exclusive

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = P(A) + P(H) - P(A\ and\ H)[/tex]

Where

[tex]P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{Total} = \frac{4}{52}[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{n(H)}{Total} = \frac{13}{52}[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ and\ H) = \frac{n(A\ and\ H)}{Total} = \frac{1}{52}[/tex]

Substitute these values in the above formula

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = P(A) + P(H) - P(A\ and\ H)[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4}{52} + \frac{13}{52} - \frac{1}{52}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4 + 13 - 1}{52}[/tex]

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{16}{52}[/tex]

Reduce fraction to lowest term

[tex]P(A\ or\ H) = \frac{4}{13}[/tex]

Hence, probability of a heart or ace is 4/13

See the attached image for transition matrix.

Let the matrix be M

if the stock closes higher on a day, the probability that it closes higher the next day is 0.65.

If the stock closes lower on a day, the probability that it closes higher the next day is 0.45

if the stock closes higher on a day, the probability that it closes lower the next day is 1 - 0.65 = 0.35

if the stock closes lower on a day, the probability that it closes lower the next day is 1 - 0.45 =0.55

What is the solution of the system of equations?
y = -3x + 7
y = 2x - 8

Answers

Answer:

x = 3, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y=y

then, -3x +7 = 2x-8

7+8 = 3x+2x

15 = 5x

x=3

substitute

y = 2(3) - 8

y = -2

Hope that helped!!! k

Answer:

y = -2

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using elimination

1. Rearrange the equations to make it easier to solve

y = -3x + 7 → 3x + y = 7

y = 2x - 8 → 2x - y = 8

2. Multiply the equations to have a matching coefficient

2(3x + y = 7) = 6x + 2y = 14

3(2x - y = 8) = 6x - 3y = 24

3. Subtract

 6x + 2y = 14

- 6x - 3y = 24

  0 + 5y = -10

4. Solve for y

5y = -10

y = -2

5. Substitute y in any equation to solve for x

-2 = -3x + 7

-3x = -9

x = 3
