A quiz has 10 multiple choice questions each with 4 answers that are equally likely to be the correct one. Suppose that the quiz takers need to score 7 corrects out of 10 to pass. Answer the following questions when the quiz taker selects the answers randomly. a) Probability of marking exactly 3 incorrect answers. b) Probability of passing

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.0031 = 0.31% probability of marking exactly 3 incorrect answers.

b) 0.0035 = 0.35% probability of passing.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the student chooses the correct answer, or he does not. Questions are independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

10 multiple choice questions

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

4 answers that are equally likely to be the correct one. The quiz taker selects the answers randomly.

This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

a) Probability of marking exactly 3 incorrect answers.

3 incorrectly = 7 correctly, so this is P(X = 7).

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

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.25)^{7}.(0.75)^{3} = 0.0031[/tex]

0.0031 = 0.31% probability of marking exactly 3 incorrect answers.

b) Probability of passing

At least 7 correct, so

[tex]P(X \geq 7) = P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]

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

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.25)^{7}.(0.75)^{3} = 0.0031[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.25)^{8}.(0.75)^{2} = 0.0004[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.25)^{9}.(0.75)^{1} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.25)^{10}.(0.75)^{0} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 7) = P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0031 + 0.0004 + 0 + 0 = 0.0035[/tex]

0.0035 = 0.35% probability of passing.

What is Proportion?

In general, the term "proportion" refers to a part, share, or amount that is compared to a total.

According to the concept of proportion, two ratios are in proportion when they are equal.

According to proportion, two sets of provided numbers are said to be directly proportional to one another if they increase or decrease in the same ratio. "::" or "=" are symbols used to indicate proportions.

Given:

Height of Man= 6 feet

Shadow height= 5 feet

and, Height of tree shadow= 15 feet

So, using Proportion

FE/ BC = FA/ AC

6 / x = 5 / 15

5x= 90

x= 14 feet

Hence, the tree is 14 feet tall.

10.Suppose that you have bought 3 large glass-fronted cabinets. You have three workers, A, B and C, to help you with transporting the cabinets from the furniture store to your home, and you want them to finish it in (at most) one trip each. From past experience, it is known that the probability that A breaks something in a given trip is 10%, the probability that B breaks something in a given trip is 15%, and the probability that C breaks something in a given trip is 20%. The events that A, B, or C breaks something in a given trip are independent of each other. You come up with three strategies: (a) A transports all the furniture, (b) A transports two cabinets and B transports one cabinet, or (c)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the expected no of broken cabinets for each strategy.

If A transport all the furniture

Suppose X₁ = number of furniture A broken

X₁ follows a binomial with n = 3, p = 0.10

E(X₁) = np

E(X₁) = 3 × 0.1

E(X₁) = 0.3

If A transport two (2) cabinets & B transport one (1) cabinet

expected no. of the broken cabinet by A out of 2 is

= 2 × 0.1

= 0.2

Suppose X₂ denotes the no of broken furniture by B

E(X₂) = np

where n= 1 and p = 0.15

E(X₂) = np

E(X₂) = 1 × 0.15

E(X₂) = 0.15

Thus. the expected number of broken cabinets = 0.2 + 0.15 = 0.35

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle. The Sine or Sinθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its Hypotenuse.

What is Sine (Sinθ)?

The Sine or Sinθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its Hypotenuse. it is given as,

Sin(θ) = Perpendicular/Hypotenuse

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle.

The angle of elevation is equal to,

The angle of elevation = Sin⁻¹ (4.5/11.75)

                                      = 22.5183° ≈ 23°

Hence, the angle of elevation formed by the ramp by the ground to the nearest degree is 23°.

Together they can paint 5/108 of a wall in 1 minute.  So they can paint the entire wall in 108 minutes.

We have given that,

John can paint 1/54 of a wall in 1 minute.

James can paint 1/36 of a wall in 1 minute.

What is the formula for total wall paint in one minute?

Total wall paint  of both in one minute is calculated by adding the both the paint in one minute it gives us the total paint in one minute

Therefore ,total wall paint in one minute =1/54 + 1/36

So if they work together, they can both paint 1/54 + 1/36 of a wall in 1 minute.

1/54 + 1/36 = 2/108 + 3/108 = 5/108 = 0.04629.

Therefore,together they can paint 5/108 of a wall in 1 minute.  So they can paint the entire wall in 108 minutes.
