The University of Montana ski team has thirteen entrants in a men's downhill ski event. The coach would like the first, second, and third places to go to the team members. In how many ways can the thirteen team entrants achieve first, second, and third places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1716 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of entrants = 13

The number of ways of attaining first, second and third position :

The number of ways of attaining first ; only 1 person can be first ;

Using permutation :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

13P1 = 13! ÷ 12! = 13

Second position :

We have 12 entrants left :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

12P1 = 12! ÷ 11! = 12

Third position :

We have 11 entrants left :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

11P1 = 11! ÷ 10! = 11

Hence, Number of ways = (13 * 12 * 11) = 1716 ways

Answer:

6.09 is the answer rounded to nearest hundredths.

Step-by-step explanation:

It gives you n=150, p=0.55, and q=1-p.

If p=0.55 and q=1-p, then by substitution property we have q=1-0.55=0.45.

It ask you to evaluate the expression sqrt(npq).

So npq means find the product of 150 and 0.55 and 0.45. So that is 150(0.55)(0.45)=37.125.

The sqrt(npq) means we need to find the square root of that product. So sqrt(37.125)=6.093 approximately .

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

QR = 9

QP = 6

TU = 19

TS =?

Since the triangles are SIMILAR, then,

QR / TU = QP / TS

With the above equation, we can obtain the value of TS as follow:

QR = 9

QP = 6

TU = 19

TS =?

QR / TU = QP / TS

9 / 19 = 6 / TS

Cross multiply

9 × TS = 19 × 6

where t represents the year, with
t = 5 corresponding to 1985.
Use the model to find the numbers of cell sites in the years 1998, 2003, and 2006

Answers

Answer:

(a) 74553

(b) 172120

(c) 234802

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259t}}[/tex]

Solving (a): 1998

Year 1998 means that:

[tex]t =1998 - 1980[/tex]

[tex]t =18[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*18}}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-4.662}}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 3.562}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{4.562}[/tex]

[tex]y = 74553[/tex] --- approximated

Solving (b): 2003

Year 2003 means that:

[tex]t = 2003 - 1980[/tex]

[tex]t =23[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*23}}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-5.957}}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 0.976}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1.976}[/tex]

[tex]y = 172120[/tex] --- approximated

Solving (c): 2006

Year 2006 means that:

[tex]t = 2006 - 1980[/tex]

[tex]t =26[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*26}}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-6.734}}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1 + 0.4485}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{340110}{1.4485}[/tex]

According to a Gallup poll, 60% of American adults prefer saving over spending. In a random sample of 10 American adults, what is the probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending

Answers

Answer:

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they prefer saving over spending, or they do not. The answers for each adult are independent, 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.

According to a Gallup poll, 60% of American adults prefer saving over spending.

This means that [tex]p = 0.6[/tex]

Sample of 10 American adults

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

What is the probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending?

This is:

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.6)^{0}.(0.4)^{10} = 0.0001[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.6)^{1}.(0.4)^{9} = 0.0016[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.6)^{2}.(0.4)^{8} = 0.0106[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.6)^{3}.(0.4)^{7} = 0.0425[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0001 + 0.0016 + 0.0106 + 0.0425 = 0.0548[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - 0.0548 = 0.9452[/tex]

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending

X -1 0 1
f(x) 3c 3c 6c

Answers

Answer:

[tex]c = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]

The mean of the distribution is 0.25.

The variance of the distribution is of 0.6875.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability density function:

For it to be a probability function, the sum of the probabilities must be 1. The probabilities are 3c, 3c and 6c, so:

[tex]3c + 3c + 6c = 1[/tex]

[tex]12c = 1[/tex]

[tex]c = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]

So the probability distribution is:

[tex]P(X = -1) = 3c = 3\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = 3c = 3\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = 6c = 6\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

Mean:

Sum of each outcome multiplied by its probability. So

[tex]E(X) = -1(0.25) + 0(0.25) + 1(0.5) = -0.25 + 0.5 = 0.25[/tex]

The mean of the distribution is 0.25.

Variance:

Sum of the difference squared between each value and the mean, multiplied by its probability. So

[tex]V^2(X) = 0.25(-1-0.25)^2 + 0.25(0 - 0.25)^2 + 0.5(1 - 0.25)^2 = 0.6875[/tex]

The variance of the distribution is of 0.6875.

Prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4

Answers

Answer:

By these examples you are able to see that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

For examples,

Let's consider squares of 3, 11, 25, 37 and 131.

[tex] {3}^{2} = 9[/tex]

8 is a multiple of 4, and 9 is more than 8.

[tex] {11}^{2} = 121[/tex]

120 is a multiple of 4 and 121 is one more than it.

[tex] {25}^{2} = 625[/tex]

624 is a multiple of 4 and 625 is one more than it.

[tex] {37}^{2} = 1369[/tex]

1368 is a multiple of 4 and 1369 is one more than 1368.

[tex] {131}^{2} = 17161[/tex]

17160 is a multiple of 4.

NFL Pre-Season Teams in the National Football League (NFL) in the US play four pre-season games each year before the regular season starts. Do teams that do well in the pre-season tend to also do well in the regular season? We are interested in whether there is a positive linear association between the number of wins in the pre-season and the number of wins in the regular season for teams in the NFL.

Required:
a. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for this test?
b. The correlation between these two variables for the 32 NFL teams over the 10 year period from 2005 to 2014 was 0.067. Use this sample (with n=320) to calculate the appropriate test statistic and determine the p-value for the test.
c. State the conclusion in context, using a 5% significance level.

Answers

Answer:

H0 : ρ = 0

H1 : ρ ≠ 0

Test statistic = 1.197

Pvalue = 0.2335

There is no correlation between the two variables

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and alternative hypothesis :

H0 : No correlation exist,

H1 : Correlation exist

H0 : ρ = 0

H1 : ρ ≠ 0

Test statistic, T = r / √(1 - r²) / (n - 2)

T = 0.067 / √(1 - 0.067²) / (320 - 2)

T = 0.067 / √(0.995511 / 318)

T = 0.067 / 0.0559512

T = 1.197

The Pvalue obtained from the Rscore, at df = 320 - 2 = 318 is 0.2335

α = 5% = 0.05

The Pvalue > α ; we fail to reject the null and conclude that, there is no correlation between the two variables.

At a certain gas station, 40% of the customers use regular gas (A1), 35% use plus gas (A2), and 25% use premium (A3). Of those customers using regular gas, only 10% fill their tanks (event B). Of those customers using plus, 20% fill their tanks, whereas of those using premium, 30% fill their tanks.

Required:
a. What is the probability that the next customer will request plus gas and fill their tank ?
b. What is the probability that the next customer fills the tank ?
c. If the next customer fills the tank, what is the probability that the regular gas is requested?

Answers

Answer:

Remember that for an event with a percentage probability X, the probability is given by:

P = X/100%

a) What is the probability that the next customer will request plus gas and fill their tank ?

We know that 35% of the customers use plus gas, and of these using plus, 20% fill their tank.

So the probability that the next customer uses plus gas is:

p = 35%/100% = 0.35

And the probability that the customer fills the tank (given that the customer uses plus gas) is:

q = 20%/100% = 0.2

The joint probability is just the product between the individual probabilities:

Then the probability that the next customer uses plus gas and fills their tank is:

P = 0.35*0.2 = 0.07

b) What is the probability that the next customer fills the tank?

We know that 20% of the ones that use plus gas (with a probability of  0.35) fill their tank, 10% of these that use regular gas (with a probability of 0.4) and 30% of these that use premium (with a probability of 0.25) fill their tank,

Then the probability is computed in a similar way than above, here the probability is:

P = 0.2*0.35 + 0.1*0.4 + 0.3*0.25 = 0.185

The probability that the next customer fills the tank is 0.185

c)  If the next customer fills the tank, what is the probability that the regular gas is requested?

Ok, now we already know that the customer fills the tank.

The probability that a customer uses regular and fills the tank, is

p = 0.1*0.4

The probability that a customer fills the tank is computed above, this is:

P = 0.185

The probability, given that the customer fills the tank, the customer uses regular gas, is equal to the quotient between the probability that the customer fills the tank with regular and the probability that the customer fills the tank, this is:

Probability = p/P = (0.1*0.4)/(0.185) = 0.216
