State if the scenario involves a permutation or a combination. Then find the number of possibilities.

A team of 15 basketball players needs to choose two players to refill the water cooler.

Permutation/Combination:

Answer:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Permutation ; 210 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation and combination methods refers to mathematical solution to finding the number of ways of making selection for a group of objects.

Usually, selection process whereby the order of selection does not matter are being treated using permutation, while those which takes the order of selection into cognizance are calculated using combination.

Here, selecting 2 players from 15 ; since order does not matter, we use permutation ;

Recall :

nPr = n! ÷ (n - r)!

Hence,

15P2 = 15! ÷ (15 - 2)!

15P2 = 15! ÷ 13!

15P2 = (15 * 14) = 210 ways

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day. What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2

Answers

Answer:

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the mean during the interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day.

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.8n[/tex], in which n is the number of days.

10 days:

This means that [tex]n = 10, \mu = 0.8(10) = 8[/tex]

What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00034[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00268[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.01073[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00034 + 0.00268 + 0.01073 = 0.01375[/tex]

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

The administration conducted a survey to determine the proportion of students who ride a bike to campus. Of the 123 students surveyed 5 ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus? Check all that apply.

a. The sample needs to be random but we don’t know if it is.
b. The actual count of bike riders is too small.
c. The actual count of those who do not ride a bike to campus is too small.
d. n*^p is not greater than 10.
e. n*(1−^p)is not greater than 10.

Answers

Answer:

b. The actual count of bike riders is too small.

d. n*p is not greater than 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for a proportion:

To be possible to build a confidence interval for a proportion, the sample needs to have at least 10 successes, that is, [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and at least 10 failures, that is, [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Of the 123 students surveyed 5 ride a bike to campus.

Less than 10 successes, that is:

The actual count of bike riders is too small, or [tex]np < 10[/tex], and thus, options b and d are correct.

Open the graphing tool one last time. Compare the graphs of y=log (x-k) and y=log x+k in relation to their domain, range, and asymptotes. Describe what you see.

Answers

Answer:

sorry I don't know the answer

Answer:

For the equation y=log(x-k), the domain depends on the value of K. Sliding K moves the left bound of the domain interval. The range and the right end behavior stay the same. For the equation y=log x+k, the domain is fixed, starting at an x-value of 0. The vertical asymptote is also fixed. The range of the equation depends on K.

The cost of producing a custom-made clock includes an initial set-up fee of $1,200 plus an additional $20 per unit made. Each clock sells for $60. Find the number of clocks that must be produced and sold for the costs to equal the revenue generated. (Enter a numerical value.)

Answers

Answer:

30 clocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = number of clocks

1200 + 20x = 60x

Isolate variable x:

1200 = 60x - 20x

1200 = 40x

Divide both sides by 40:

30 = x

Check your work:

1200 + 20(30) = 60(30)

1200 + 600 = 1800

1800 = 1800

A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?​

Answers

Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.

He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so

x + y = 44 mL

Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain

0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL

of acid.

Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives

0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL

0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL

1.32 mL = 0.19x

x ≈ 6.95 mL

==>   y ≈ 37.05 mL

Answers

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following functions:

r(x) = x - 6

s(x) = 2x²

r(s(x)) = r(2x²)

Replacing x with 2x² in r(x) will give;

r(2x²) = 2x² - 6

r(s(x)) = 2x² - 6

(r-s)(x) = r(x) - s(x)

(r-s)(x) = x - 6 - 2x²

Rearrange

(r-s)(x) = - 2x²+x-6

(r+s)(x) = r(x) + s(x)

(r-s)(x) = x - 6 + 2x²

Rearrange

(r-s)(x) = 2x²+x-6

he following chart reports the number of cell phones sold at a big-box retail store for the last 26 days. a. What are the maximum and the minimum numbers of cell phones sold in a day? b. Using the median, what is the typical number of cell phones sold?

Answers

Answer:

Maximum = 19

Minimum = 4

Median = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum number of phone sold per day is the value to the right of the horizontal axis as the values are arranged in ascending order ; Hence, the maximum number of phones sold per day is 19

Also, the minimum number of phones sold per day is the value to the left of the plot, Hence, minimum number of phones sold per day is 14.

The Median value : 4, 9, 14, 19

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

1/2(5)th term = 2.5 th term

Median (9 + 14) /2 = 13 /2 = 11.5 = 12 phones
