Full question:
Astudy of 31,000 hospital admissions in New York State found that 4% of the admissions
led to treatment-caused injuries. One-seventh of these treatment-caused injuries resulted in
death, and one-fourth were caused by negligence. Malpractice claims were filed in one out
of 7.5 cases involving negligence, and payments were made in one out of every two claims
What is the probability a person admitted to the hospital is paid a malpractice claim (to decimals)
Answer:
Explanation:
Since 4% of admissions lead to treatment-caused injuries, we have 4/100×31000= 1240 treatment caused injuries for every 31000 people admitted
1/7 resulted in death = 1/7×1240= 177 people die for every 1240 treatment caused injuries
1/4 from negligence= 1/4×1240= 310 people get treatment caused injuries from negligence for every 1240 people
Malpractice claims in one of out of 7.5 cases of negligence= 13.3% of negligence cases= 0.1333×310= 41 claims for every 1240 people with treatment caused injuries
Payments were made in one out of every two claims, therefore payments for claims =50% of 41 cases of negligence= 21 payments(approximately) for every 1240 people with treatment caused injuries
Probability= number of favorable outcomes /total number of outcomes
Probability that a person admitted into the hospital will be paid a claim= 21/31000= 0.000677
What transformation was not done to the linear parent function, f(x) = x, to
get the function g(x) = – } (x + 5) + 7?
A. Reflected over the x-axis
B. Vertically compressed by a factor of 2
O c. Shifted right 5 units
D. Shifted up 7 units
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
The function shifted left five units instead of right five units.
There's no vertical compression in the equation provided, but that's probably just a typo since there's a random bracket that I assume was supposed to be a fraction.
find the length of a rhombus if the lengths of its diagonals are: 5 cm and 12 cm
9514 1404 393
Answer:
6.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the rhombus is the length of the long diagonal: 12 cm.
Perhaps you want the length of one side. We recognize the given lengths as the legs of a 5-12-13 right triangle. Since each side is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are half the diagonals, the side length of the rhombus will be half of 13 cm.
The side lengths of the rhombus are 6.5 cm.

The variance of the scores on a skill evaluation test is 143,641 with a mean of 1517 points. If 343 tests are sampled, what is the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by less than 36 points
Answer:
The probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by less than 36 points=0.9216
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
The variance of the scores on a skill evaluation test=143,641
Mean=1517 points
n=343
We have to find the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by less than 36 points.
Standard deviation,[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{143641}[/tex]
[tex]P(|x-\mu|<36)=P(|\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}|<\frac{36}{\frac{\sqrt{143641}}{\sqrt{343}}})[/tex]
[tex]=P(|Z|<\frac{36}{\sqrt{\frac{143641}{343}}})[/tex]
[tex]=P(|Z|<1.76)[/tex]
[tex]=0.9216[/tex]
Hence, the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by less than 36 points=0.9216
rewrite 1/6 and 2/11 so they have a common denominator then use <, =, or > to order
Answer:
1/6 < 2/11
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6 = 2/12
2/11 >2/12
So that means 1/6 < 2/11
Answer: 1/6 < 2/11
This is the same as saying 11/66 < 12/66
===========================================================
Explanation:
1/6 is the same as 11/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 11.
2/11 is the same as 12/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 6.
The 6 and 11 multipliers are from the original denominators (just swapped).
We can see that 11/66 is smaller than 12/66, simply because 11 < 12, so that means 1/6 is smaller than 2/11
-----------------
Here's one way you could list out the steps
11 < 12
11/66 < 12/66
1/6 < 2/11
------------------
Here's another way to list out the steps. First assume that 1/6 and 2/11 are equal. Cross multiplication then leads to
1/6 = 2/11
1*11 = 6*2
11 = 12
Which is false. But we can fix this by replacing every equal sign with a less than sign
1/6 < 2/11
1*11 < 6*2
11 < 12
---------------------
Yet another way to see which is smaller is to use your calculator or long division to find the decimal form of each value
1/6 = 0.1667 approximately
2/11 = 0.1818 approximately
We see that 0.1667 is smaller than 0.1818, which must mean 1/6 is smaller than 2/11.

A math instructor claims that college women have more credit card debt than college men. She conducts a random sample of 38 college men and 32 college women, determines their average credit card debt, and obtains the following statistics:
women n1 =32 x1= 781 s1 = 1489 men n2 = 38 x2 = 435 s2 = 1026
Test the claim that college women have more credit card debt than college men at the a = .05 level of significance. Assume unequal variances.
Answer:
There is no significant evidence to support the claim that college women have more credit card debt than college men
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
women n1 =32 x1= 781 s1 = 1489 men n2 = 38 x2 = 435 s2 = 1026
H0 : μ1 = μ2
H0 : μ1 > μ2
Assume unequal variance :
The test statistic :
(x1 - x2) / √(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)
T= (781 - 435) / √(1489²/32) + (1026²/38)
T = 346 / 311.42740
Test statistic = 1.111
Degree of freedom, df
(s1²/n1+s2²/n2)²÷1/(n1-1)*(s1²/n1)²+1/(n2-1)*(s2²/n2)²
The Pvalue :
(s1²/n1+s2²/n2)² = ((1489²/32) + (1026²/38))² = 9406484230.6884765625
1/(n1-1)*(s1²/n1)²+1/(n2-1)*(s2²/n2)²:
1/31(1489^2/32)^2 + 1/37(1026^2/38)^2 = 1.755926E8
df = 9406484230.6884765625 / 1.755926E8 = 53.569
df = 54
The Pvalue, from t score ;
Pvalue(1.111, 54) = 0.136
Pvalue > α ; Hence, we fail to reject the null ; There is no significant evidence to support the claim that college women have more credit card debt than college men
amy shoots a 100 arrows at a target each arrow with a probability 0.2 what is the probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target
Answer:
0.3758 = 37.58% probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target
Step-by-step explanation:
For each shot, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they hit the target, or they do not. The probability of a shot hitting the target is independent of any other shot, 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.
Each arrow with a probability 0.2
This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]
First 10 arrows
This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
What is the probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target?
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{10} = 0.1074[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{9} = 0.2684[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1074 + 0.2684 = 0.3758[/tex]
0.3758 = 37.58% probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target

grocery store buys 250 boxes?
The cost of the cereal if the grocery store buys 250 boxes is $475
Cost functionsFunctions are written in terms of variables. If the cost function that represents the cereal is given as C(n), the equivalent expression if the grocery store buys 250 boxes is 1.9n
Substitute n = 250 into the function to have:
C(250) = 1.9(250)
C(250) = $475
Hence the cost of the cereal if the grocery store buys 250 boxes is $475

What is the probability of finding two defects in a Binomial distribution, with a sample size of 30, and probability of 0.2?
This is [tex]P(X = 2)[/tex], with [tex]n = 30[/tex] and [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

So:
[tex]f'(x) = x^2 - 3[/tex]
Next, reflect f'(x) across the x-axis to get g(x)

The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees. If we want to be 90% confident that the sample mean beer temperature is within 0.1 degrees of the true mean temperature, how many beers must we sample
Answer:
19 beers must be sampled.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so Z = 1.645.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees.
This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.26[/tex]
If we want to be 90% confident that the sample mean beer temperature is within 0.1 degrees of the true mean temperature, how many beers must we sample?
This is n for which M = 0.1. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.1 = 1.645\frac{0.26}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.1\sqrt{n} = 1.645*0.26[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645*0.26}{0.1}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645*0.26}{0.1})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 18.3[/tex]
Rounding up:
19 beers must be sampled.

Now actually compute 7 - (-5) =
Answer: 12
Step-by-step explanation: Whenever you have a minus a negative in a problem, you can change it to plus a positive.
So we can think of 7 - (-5) as 7 + (+5).
Whenever we have two negatives in a row, we can think of those
negatives as being multiplied together and a negative times a negative
will always result in a positive.
So just add 7 + 5 to get 12.

62. A chemist mixes 15 liters of 40 percent acid solution and 25 liters of 20 percent acid solution.
What percent of the mixture is acid?
40% of 15 L = 6 L of acid
20% of 25 L = 5 L of acid
This means the mixture contains a total of 11 L of acid, and with a total volume of 15 L + 25 L = 40 L, that means the mixture is at a concentration of
(11 L acid) / (40 L solution) = 0.275 = 27.5%
Consignment Sale. Just Between Friends is the leading pop-up consignment sales event franchise in North America. The Des Moines event for Just Between Friends takes place each year at the Iowa State Fairgrounds for one week in the spring and one week in the fall. Families can earn money on gently used baby clothes, baby gear, maternity items, kids' clothes, shoes, toys, and books. Families sign-up as consignors and then price and tag their own items. At the end of the sale, consignors are given a check based on their item sales. Using historical records, the Des Moines event organizers advertise that their consignor check amounts follow a bell-shaped distribution (symmetric and unimodal) with a mean of $480 and a standard deviation of $110. Use the Empirical Rule: What percentage of consignors receive a check for more than $370
Answer:
Just Between Friends
The percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370 is:
= 16%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of consignor check, μ = $480
Standard deviation, σ = $110
Value of check received, x > $370
Solution: find the z-score to determine the percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370:
z = (x-μ)/σ
z= ($370 - $480)/$110
z = -$110/$110
z = -1.00
Percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370
= 0.15866
= 0.16
= 16%
