A state end-of-grade exam in American History is a multiple-choice test that has 50 questions with 4 answer choices for each question. A student must get at least 25 correct to pass the test, and the questions are very difficult. Question 1. If a student guesses on every question, what is the probability the student will pass

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.004% probability the student will pass

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 50, p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

So

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 50*0.25 = 12.5[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{50*0.25*0.75} = 3.06[/tex]

If a student guesses on every question, what is the probability the student will pass

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 25 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 24.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 24.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{24.5 - 12.5}{3.06}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.92[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.92[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.99996

1 - 0.99996 = 0.00004

0.004% probability the student will pass

Based on aâ poll, among adults who regret gettingâ tattoos, 18â% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos. Assume that eight adults who regret getting tattoos are randomlyâ selected, and find the indicated probability. Complete partsâ (a) throughâ (d) below.

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.
d. It we randomly select 9 adults. Is 1 a significantly low number who day that they were too young to get tattoos?

Answers

Answer:

a) 20.44% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b) 35.90% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c) 56.34% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

d) No

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young when they got their tattoos, or they don't say that. Each adult is 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.

18% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.

This means that [tex]p = 0.18[/tex]

Eight adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly selected

This means that [tex]n = 8[/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).

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.18)^{0}.(0.82)^{8} = 0.2044[/tex]

20.44% 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).

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

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{8,1}.(0.18)^{1}.(0.82)^{7} = 0.3590[/tex]

35.90% 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.

Either a. or b.

20.44 + 35.90 = 56.34

56.34% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

d. It we randomly select 9 adults. Is 1 a significantly low number who day that they were too young to get tattoos?

Now [tex]n = 9[/tex]

It is significantly low if it is more than 2.5 standard deviations below the mean.

The mean is [tex]E(X) = np = 9*0.18 = 1.62[/tex]

The standard deviation is [tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{n*p*(1-p)} = \sqrt{9*0.18*0.82} = 1.15[/tex]

1 > (1.62 - 2.5*1.15)

So the answer is no.

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways you can solve this. First is to just count all the numbers in the list given that are within the range 15-19. This is an inclusive range meaning the numbers 15 and 19 are a part of it. The second method is to count how many numbers are in the list given and count all the numbers that have already been put on the table. There are 19 total numbers, and 14 have already been counted. If you subtract you are left with 5 numbers that are within the range. So the answer is 5.

Answer:  5

Explanation:

One method is to count all of the values that are between 15 and 19. Those values are highlighted in the diagram below. There are 5 values marked.

An alternative method is to note there are 19 values total. The items in the given table add to 5+2+1+2+4 = 14, so there must be 19-14 = 5 items missing to completely fill out the table.

Use variation of parameters to find a general solution to the differential equation given that the functions y1 and y2 are linearly independent solutions to the corresponding homogeneous equation for t > 0. ty" + (2t - 1 )y' - 2y = 6t^2 e^-2t​; y1 = 22t −​1, y2 = e^-2t

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y_g(t) = c_1*( 2t - 1 ) + c_2*e^(^-^2^t^) - e^(^-^2^t^)* [ t^3 + \frac{3}{4}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t ][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Given is the 2nd order linear ODE as follows:

                      [tex]ty'' + ( 2t - 1 )*y' - 2y = 6t^2 . e^(^-^2^t^)[/tex]

- The complementary two independent solution to the homogeneous 2nd order linear ODE are given as follows:

                     [tex]y_1(t) = 2t - 1\\\\y_2 (t ) = e^-^2^t[/tex]

- The particular solution ( yp ) to the non-homogeneous 2nd order linear ODE is expressed as:

                    [tex]y_p(t) = u_1(t)*y_1(t) + u_2(t)*y_2(t)[/tex]

Where,

              [tex]u_1(t) , u_2(t)[/tex] are linearly independent functions of parameter ( t )

- To determine [  [tex]u_1(t) , u_2(t)[/tex] ], we will employ the use of wronskian ( W ).

- The functions [[tex]u_1(t) , u_2(t)[/tex] ] are defined as:

                       [tex]u_1(t) = - \int {\frac{F(t). y_2(t)}{W [ y_1(t) , y_2(t) ]} } \, dt \\\\u_2(t) = \int {\frac{F(t). y_1(t)}{W [ y_1(t) , y_2(t) ]} } \, dt \\[/tex]

Where,

      F(t): Non-homogeneous part of the ODE

      W [ y1(t) , y2(t) ]: the wronskian of independent complementary solutions

- To compute the wronskian W [ y1(t) , y2(t) ] we will follow the procedure to find the determinant of the matrix below:

                      [tex]W [ y_1 ( t ) , y_2(t) ] = | \left[\begin{array}{cc}y_1(t)&y_2(t)\\y'_1(t)&y'_2(t)\end{array}\right] |[/tex]

                      [tex]W [ (2t-1) , (e^-^2^t) ] = | \left[\begin{array}{cc}2t - 1&e^-^2^t\\2&-2e^-^2^t\end{array}\right] |\\\\W [ (2t-1) , (e^-^2^t) ]= [ (2t - 1 ) * (-2e^-^2^t) - ( e^-^2^t ) * (2 ) ]\\\\W [ (2t-1) , (e^-^2^t) ] = [ -4t*e^-^2^t ]\\[/tex]

- Now we will evaluate function. Using the relation given for u1(t) we have:

                     [tex]u_1 (t ) = - \int {\frac{6t^2*e^(^-^2^t^) . ( e^-^2^t)}{-4t*e^(^-^2^t^)} } \, dt\\\\u_1 (t ) = \frac{3}{2} \int [ t*e^(^-^2^t^) ] \, dt\\\\u_1 (t ) = \frac{3}{2}* [ ( -\frac{1}{2} t*e^(^-^2^t^) - \int {( -\frac{1}{2}*e^(^-^2^t^) )} \, dt] \\\\u_1 (t ) = -e^(^-^2^t^)* [ ( \frac{3}{4} t + \frac{3}{8} )] \\\\[/tex]

- Similarly for the function u2(t):

                     [tex]u_2 (t ) = \int {\frac{6t^2*e^(^-^2^t^) . ( 2t-1)}{-4t*e^(^-^2^t^)} } \, dt\\\\u_2 (t ) = -\frac{3}{2} \int [2t^2 -t ] \, dt\\\\u_2 (t ) = -\frac{3}{2}* [\frac{2}{3}t^3 - \frac{1}{2}t^2 ] \\\\u_2 (t ) = t^2 [\frac{3}{4} - t ][/tex]

- We can now express the particular solution ( yp ) in the form expressed initially:

                    [tex]y_p(t) = -e^(^-^2^t^)* [\frac{3}{2}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t - \frac{3}{8} ] + e^(^-^2^t^)*[\frac{3}{4}t^2 - t^3 ]\\\\y_p(t) = -e^(^-^2^t^)* [t^3 + \frac{3}{4}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t - \frac{3}{8} ] \\[/tex]

Where the term: 3/8 e^(-2t) is common to both complementary and particular solution; hence, dependent term is excluded from general solution.

- The general solution is the superposition of complementary and particular solution as follows:

                    [tex]y_g(t) = y_c(t) + y_p(t)\\\\y_g(t) = c_1*( 2t - 1 ) + c_2*e^(^-^2^t^) - e^(^-^2^t^)* [ t^3 + \frac{3}{4}t^2 + \frac{3}{4}t ][/tex]

Answers

Answer:

(x,y)= (-124/27, 41/9)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Add the equation to eliminate x.

5y+3x=9

4y-3x=32

2) Add 5y and 4y.

5y=9

4y=32 -->  9y=41

3) Get y by itself by dividing 9 on both sides:

y=41/9

4) Substitute Value in the equation 5y+3x=9

5(41/9)+3x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

x+3y=16________________eqn 1

2x+y=-18_______________eqn 2

multiply first equation by - 2

-2(x+3y=16)

-2x-6y= -32______________eqn 3

A U.S.-based Internet company offers an online proficiency course in basic accounting. Completing this online course satisfies the "Fundamentals of Accounting" course requirement in many MBA programs. In the first semester, 315 students have enrolled in the course. The marketing research manager divided the country into seven regions of approximately equal population. The course enrollment values for each of the seven regions are given below. The management wants to know if there is equal interest in the course across all regions. Region Enrollment 1 45 2 60 3 30 4 40 5 50 6 55 7 35 The CEO looked at the data presented and said no they are not equal. It is obvious, since the enrollment in one region is 60 and another 30. However, the CFO said that using a Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Test with a 1% significance level, the frequencies in the regions are not significantly different. Which one is correct? Use statistics to support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Expected \ mean = \dfrac{sum \ of \ values }{n}[/tex]

[tex]Expected \ mean = \dfrac{315 }{7}[/tex]

Expected mean = 45

The Chi - Square Value = 15.556

Conclusion:

We conclude that there is equal number of average interest in the course across all regions.  

Thus, the CFO is correct, the the frequencies in the regions are not significantly different by using a Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Test with a 1% significance level.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question; Let state our null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis

Null Hypothesis

[tex]\mathbf{H_0:}[/tex]There is equal number of average interest in the course across all regions.  

Alternative Hypothesis

[tex]\mathbf{H_a:}[/tex] At least one of the region differs in average number of interest in the course.

The table can be better structured as :

Region          Enrollment

1                       45

2                       60

3                       30

4                       40

5                       50

6                       55

7                       35

From above; we know the number of sample = 7

Then our expected mean can be calculated as :

[tex]Expected \ mean = \dfrac{sum \ of \ values }{n}[/tex]

[tex]Expected \ mean = \dfrac{315 }{7}[/tex]

Expected mean = 45

SO, let's construct our Chi-Square  Statistics Test Table as follows:

Observed       Expected       Expected       (O-E)²         [tex]\dfrac{(O-E)^2}{E}[/tex]

(O)                         (E)            proportion    

45                          45           0.142857          0                   0

60                          45           0.142857       225                 5

30                          45           0.142857        225                5

40                          45           0.142857          25               0.556

50                          45           0.142857          25               0.556

55                          45           0.142857         100               2.222

35                          45           0.142857          100              2.222

                                                                                          15.556

The Chi - Square Value = 15.556

Degree of freedom = n- 1

Degree of freedom = 7 - 1

Degree of freedom = 6

Level of significance ∝ = 1% = 0.01

The Critical value of Chi Square test statistic at df = 6 and 0.01 significance level is 16.812

The Decision rule is to reject the Null hypothesis if The Chi Square test statistic X² > 16.812

Thus , since  the Chi Square test statistic is lesser than the critical value,

i.e  15.556 < 16.812 ,we accept null hypothesis [tex]\mathbf{H_0}[/tex]

Conclusion:

We conclude that there is equal number of average interest in the course across all regions.  

Thus, the CFO is correct, the the frequencies in the regions are not significantly different by using a Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Test with a 1% significance level.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the absolute value |x|, is the non-negative result of x without regard to its sign.

An absolute function, can never have a negative result.

By this alone, you can solve the question because the inequality is false, and therefore there are zero solutions.

Please see the attachment of f(x) = |x - 7|.

When you look at the graph, you can easily confirm that there is no value which can result in a negative y- coordinate like -2. In fact, that is the whole purpose of any absolute value or function. The result of an absolute function can never be negative.

Answer:

See Explanation

This question is answered using Microsoft Office Excel 2013

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Browser A - 64%

Browser B - 24%

Browser C - 6%

Browser D - 3%

Browser E - 3%

Total Frequency = 50

a.

To tabulate the frequency of the choice of browser, the total frequency is multiplied by each individual percentage as follows;

Browser A - 64% * 50 = 32

Browser B - 24% * 50 = 12

Browser C - 6% * 50 = 3

Browser D - 3%* 50 = 1.5

Browser E - 3% * 50 = 1.5

See Attachment for frequency table (using software)

b. See Attachment for pie chart and bar chart.

Both charts are useful for data presentation but in this case, the pie chart is a better option to use because it shows how the distribution of each browser and how they make up as a whole.

The main circle of the pie chart shows how individual browser are distributed through segments; This is not so for the bars of the bar chart which.

c. Yes, there are changes in the choice of browser.

Aside from Browser D and E that has the same frequency, other browsers (A-C) have different frequency.

Also, the distribution shows that more users make use of browser A than other browsers and the least frequent used browser are browser D and E.

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y=2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

When writing the equation of a line in slope intercept form, you need to know two things; the slope, and the y intercept. The slope of the line can be found by seeing how steep the line is. For instance, here the line rises 2 units for every 1 unit it moves to the right, meaning that it has a slope of 2/1=2. The y intercept can be found by just seeing where the graph crosses the y axis, or where x is 0. Here it can be seen to be at -2. Therefore, the equation of this line is y=2x-2. Hope this helps!

the y-intercept is: (0, -2) and the x-intercept is (1,0)

the first thing you do is find the slope:

m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

so : ( 0 -  -2) / ( 1 - 0)  or 2/1 therefore the slope is 2

y = 2x + ? is the next step

then you can substitute the x and y into the formula to find the (b) value

0 = 2 (1)

0 = 2 ?

since 0 equals two plus two the b value is 2.

so the answer is y = 2x + 2

If 3^2+1 =3^x+5. What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=1.464974[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]3^2+1 =3^x+5[/tex]

[tex]9+1 =3^x+5[/tex]

[tex]10 =3^x+5[/tex]

[tex]10-5 =3^x[/tex]

[tex]5=3^x[/tex]

[tex]log(3x)=log(5)[/tex]

[tex]x \times (log(3))=log(5)[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{log(5)}{log(3)}[/tex]

[tex]x=1.464974[/tex]

Answer: 1.46497352 or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete 3^2 to get 9, then add 1 to get 10

Then subtract 5 from both sides to get [tex]5=3^x[/tex]

Youre gonna have to apply a log rule here to get:

[tex]log_{3}5=x[/tex]

You get 1.46497352 or approximately 1.5

Answer:

4 ( a+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is

(f(a) - f(2))/(a-2)

f(a) = 4a^2 -8

f(2) = 4*2^2 -8 = 4*4 -8 = 16-8 = 8

(4a^2 - 8  - 8))/(a-2)

(4a^2 -16) / (a-2)

Factor the numerator

4( a^2 -4) / (a-2)

4( a-2)(a+2) / (a-2)

Find the value of x from this adjoining figure

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=15^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure for labeling of given diagram:

We are given the following angles:

[tex]\angle AOC = 3x^\circ\\\angle BOD = 2x^\circ\\\angle EOF = 7x^\circ[/tex]

Angles opposite to each other when they are formed by crossing of two lines are known as vertically opposite angles. And vertically opposite angles are always equal to each other.

Using property of vertically opposite angles:

[tex]\angle EOF = \angle AOB = 7x^\circ[/tex]

Line CD is a straight line, so [tex]\angle COD = 180^\circ[/tex]

Also,

[tex]\angle COD = \angle COA+\angle AOB+\angle BOD = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 3x + 7x + 2x=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 12x =180^\circ\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{180}{12}\\\Rightarrow x = 15^\circ[/tex]

Hence, answer is [tex]x = 15^\circ[/tex].

You are going to sell your Samsung so you can get the new iPhone. You purchased your Samsung 2 years ago for $200. It's
value decreases at a rate of 2% each month. To the nearest dollar, how much is your Samsung worth now?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\ 123 \ dollars\ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

its value decreases at a rate of 2% each month

in 2 years there are 12*2=24 months

so the Samsung worth [tex]200(0.98)^{24}\\[/tex]

it gives 123 rounded to the nearest dollar

Answer:

$123

Step-by-step explanation:

initial price= $200

value decrease rate= 2% = 0.98 times a month

time = 2 years

current value= $200*0.98²⁴= $123

An urn contains 8 black and 6 pink balls. Five balls are randomly drawn from from the urn in succession, with replacement. That is, after each draw, the selected ball is returned to the urn. What is the probabillity that all the 5 balls drawn from the urn are pink? Round your answer to 3 decimal places. (IF necessary, consult a list of formulas)

Answers

Answer:

2.143

Step-by-step explanation:

An urn contains 8 black and;

6 pink balls.

5 balls are randomly drawn from the urn in succession, with replacement.

What is the probability that all the 5 balls drawn from the urn are pink?

The probability of drawing a pink ball in the first draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the second draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the third draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the fourth draw is 6/14The probability of drawing a pink ball in the fifth draw is 6/14

The probability that all the 5 balls drawn is pink is 5 × 6/14 = 30/14 = 2.143 (rounded off to 3 decimal places)

The probability of drawing 5 pink balls is 0.271

Since the balls are replaced after each draw, the probability of drawing a pink ball each time is always  

6/14

=3/7

Since we are drawing 5 balls, the probability of drawing 5 pink balls with replacement is

[tex](3/7)^{5}[/tex]

≈0.2706

 

Rounding to 3 decimal places, the probability is  0.271

A textile manufacturer has historically found an average of 0.1 flaws per square meter of cloth. Let X be the number of flaws in a bolt of 2000 square meters of cloth. How is X distributed

Answers

Answer:

Poisson distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

There is an average of 0.1 flaws per square meter of cloth

So X = the number of flaws in a bolt of 2000 square meters of cloth.

The objective is to deduce how is X distributed.

Well, we can say X undergoes Poisson distribution.

Because, the flaw can be randomly positioned on the cloth and also dictate  how many times the event is likely to occur within a specified period of time.

Most time Poisson distribution is majorly used for independent events.

An independent is an event which contains two types of events occuring at a time say event [tex]E_1[/tex] and event [tex]E_2[/tex] and the event [tex]E_1[/tex] does not in any way affects the occurrence of the event [tex]E_2[/tex] .
