Based on a poll, among adults who regret getting tattoos, 24% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos. Assume that six adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly selected, and find the indicated probability.
a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Answer:
a) 0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b) 0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c) 0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young to get tattoos, or they do not say this. The probability of a person saying this is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [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]
And p is the probability of X happening.
24% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.
This means that [tex]p = 0.24[/tex]
Six adults
This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]
a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
This is P(X = 0). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.24)^{0}.(0.76)^{6} = 0.1927[/tex]
0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
This is P(X = 1). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.24)^{1}.(0.76)^{5} = 0.3651[/tex]
0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
This is:
[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1927 + 0.3651 = 0.5578[/tex]
0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

A human resources office is working to implement an increase in starting salaries for new
administrative secretaries and faculty at a community college. An administrative secretary
starts at $28,000 and new faculty receive $40,000. The college would like to determine the
percentage increase to allocate to each group, given that the college will be hiring 8
secretaries and 7 faculty in the upcoming academic year. The college has at most $5,000 to
put towards raises. What should the percentage increase be for each group?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation :
Let % increase in administrative secretary be = x
Let % increase in new faculty receive be = y
Administrative secretary salary = 28,000
New faculty receive Salary = 40,000
(8)*(x/100)* (28000) + (7)*(y/100)*(40000) = 5,000
2240x +2800 y = 5,000
224x +280 y = 500
56x +70y = 125
Therefore, x and y should be chosen such that it satisfy the above equation.
A recipe calls for 2 1/2 tablespoons of oil and 3/4 tablespoons of vinegar. What is the ratio of oil to vinegar in this recipe?
Answer:
10:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 2 1/2 an improper fraction, you will get 5/2. You dont have to do anything to the 3/4.
For you to find the ratio of an fraction, you have to take the numerator but the denominator has to be the same.
So make 5/2 to a 10/4.
Take the numerator 10 & 3.
Your answer will be 10:3

Answer:
0.5679
Step-by-step explanation:
From. The table Given above :
The probability of female Given an advanced degree ;
P(F|A) = p(FnA) / p(A)
From the table, p(FnA) = 322
P(Advanced degree), P(A) = (245 + 322) = 567
Hence,
P(F|A) = p(FnA) / p(A) = 322 / 567 = 0.5679

Scores on the SAT are approximately normally distributed. One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120. What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers
Answer:
The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120.
This means that [tex]\mu = 500, \sigma = 120[/tex]
What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers?
The 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.85, so X when Z = 1.037.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.037 = \frac{X - 500}{120}[/tex]
[tex]X - 500 = 1.037*120[/tex]
[tex]X = 624.44[/tex]
The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.

Consider the function z(x,y) describing the paraboloid \[z = (2x - y)^2 - 2y^2 - 3y.\]Archimedes and Brahmagupta are playing a game. Archimedes first chooses $x.$ Afterwards, Brahmagupta chooses $y.$ Archimedes wishes to minimize $z$ while Brahmagupta wishes to maximize $z.$ Assuming that Brahmagupta will play optimally, what value of $x$ should Archimedes choose?
Answer: -3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Expanding z we get
z = 4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 2y^2 - 3y
= -y^2 - (4x + 3) y + 4x^2.
After Archimedes chooses x, Brahmagupta will choose
y=-(4x+3/2) in order to maximize z
Then
z=-((-4x+3)/2)^2 -(4x+3)(-4x+3)/2)^2)+4x^2
z=8x^2+6x+9/4
To minimize this expression, Archimedes should choose x=-3/8

What is the chance of getting 3 of the same cards in a row in a 52 cards deck?
Answer:
1/425
Step-by-step explanation:
The first card can be any card, so we don’t have to evaluate the probability.
Now we can suppose that the exit card is a two
- For the second card we have 3/51 of possibilities that is a 2 = 1/17
- For the third card we have 2/50 of possibilities that is a 2 = 1/25
1/17 * 1/25 = 1/425

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?
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

Answer:
3.564 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the original garden is
A = 5.4 * 1.5 = 8.1
The new garden is
5.4*1.2 = 6.48 by 1.5*1.2 =1.8
The area is
A = 6.48*1.8=11.664
The increase in area is
11.664-8.1=3.564
The given information is,
To find the increase in area of the garden.
Formula we use,
→ Area = Length × Width
Area of the real garden is,
→ 5.4 × 1.5
→ 8.1 m
The new garden will be,
→ 5.4 × 1.2 = 6.48 m
→ 1.5 × 1.2 = 1.8 m
The area of the new garden is,
→ 6.48 × 1.8
→ 11.664
Then the increase in area of the garden,
→ 11.664 - 8.1
→ 3.564 m²
Hence, 3.564 m² is the increase in area.

Help with solving this Functions problem
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
