Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The probability mass function of K = [tex]P(K=k) = \binom{k-1}{4}0.1^{4}*0.9^{k-5} ; k =5,6,...[/tex]

b)

c)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let p be  the probability of winning each ticket be = 0.1

Then q which is the probability of failing each ticket  = 1 - p = 1  - 0.1 = 0.9

Assume X represents the  number of failure preceding the 5th success in x + 5 trials.

The last trial must be success whose probability is p = 0.1 and in the remaining (x + r- 1) ( x+ 4 ) trials we must have have (4) successes whose probability is given by:

[tex]\binom{x+r-1}{r-1}*p^{r-1}*q^{x} = \binom{x+4}{4}0.1^{4}*0.9^{x} ; x =0, 1, .........[/tex]

Then, the probability distribution of random variable X is

[tex]P(X=x) = \binom{x+4}{4}0.1^{4}*0.9^{x} ; x =0, 1, .........[/tex]

where;

X represents the  negative binomial random variable.

K= X + 5 = number of ticket buy up to and including fifth winning ticket.

Since K =X+5 this signifies that  X = K-5

as X takes value 0, 1 ,2,...

K takes value 5, 6 ,...

Therefore:

The probability mass function of K = [tex]P(K=k) = \binom{k-1}{4}0.1^{4}*0.9^{k-5} ; k =5,6,...[/tex]

b)

Let p represent the probability of getting a tail on a flip of the coin

Thus p = 0.5 since it is a fair coin

where L = number of flips of the coin including 33rd occurrence of  tails

Thus; the negative binomial distribution of L can be illustrated as:

[tex]P(X=x) = \binom{x-1}{r-1}(1-p)^{x-r}p^r[/tex]

where

X= L

r = 33  &

p = 0.5

Since we are looking at the 33rd success; L is likely to be : L = 33,34,35...

Thus; the PMF of L = [tex]P(L=l) = \binom{l-1}{33-1}(1-0.5)^{l}(0.5)^{33} \\ \\ \\ \mathbf{P(L=l) = \binom{l-1}{33-1}(0.5)^{l} }[/tex]

c)  

Given that:

Let  M be the random variable which represents  the number of tickets need to be bought to get the first success,

also success probability is 0.01.

Therefore, M ~ Geo(0.01).

Thus, the PMF of M is given by:

[tex]P(M = m) = (1-0.01)^{m-1} * 0.01 , \ \ \ since \ \ \ (m = 1,2,3,4,....)[/tex]

[tex]P(M=m) = (0.99)^{m-1} * 0.01 , m = 1,2,3,4,....[/tex]

A survey was sent out to compare the proportion of adults who use their car horns when driving for two age populations (1=younger adults, defined as between 20 and 39 years old and 2 =older adults, defined as over 60 years old). The following data was obtained from those who responded.

Calculate the 90% confidence interval using the standard normal distribution. Note that 1 =0.52. P2= 0.35, and s.e.(P1-P2) =0.0338. Round to the fourth decimal point. Please enter you answer in the following format: (lower value, upper value)

Use the horn Use the horn
Group Yes No Total
1= younger adults 261 240 501
2= older adults 123 229 352

Answers

Answer:

The  90% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (0.115, 0.228).

As the value 0 is not included in the interval, we can conclude that there is significant difference in the proportion of youger adults that use the horn and older adults that use the horn.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to calculate the bounds of a 90% confidence interval.

For a 90% CI, the critical value for z is z=1.645.

The sample 1 (younger adults) , of size n1=501 has a proportion of p1=0.521.

[tex]p_1=X_1/n_1=261/501=0.5210[/tex]

The sample 2 (older  adults), of size n2=352 has a proportion of p2=0.3494.

[tex]p_2=X_2/n_2=123/352=0.3494[/tex]

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.1715.

[tex]p_d=p_1-p_2=0.5210-0.3494=0.1715[/tex]

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

[tex]p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{261+123}{501+352}=\dfrac{384}{853}=0.4502[/tex]

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.4502*0.5498}{501}+\dfrac{0.4502*0.5498}{352}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.0005+0.0007}=\sqrt{0.0012}=0.0346[/tex]

Then, the margin of error is:

[tex]MOE=z \cdot s_{p1-p2}=1.645\cdot 0.0346=0.0569[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=(p_1-p_2)-z\cdot s_{p1-p2} = 0.1715-0.0569=0.115\\\\UL=(p_1-p_2)+z\cdot s_{p1-p2}= 0.1715+0.0569=0.228[/tex]

The  90% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (0.115, 0.228).

How many students have blonde hair?
How many students have dark hair?
How many students have red hair?

Answers

Answer:

(a)24

(b)8

(c)4

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of STudents in the Class = 36

Angle representing Students with Red Hair =40 degrees

Angle representing Students with Blonde Hair =240 degrees

Therefore:

(a)Number of Students with Blonde Hair

[tex]=\dfrac{240^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 36\\\\ =24$ students[/tex]

(b)Number of Students with Dark Hair

Angle representing students with dark hair = 360-(240+40)=80 degrees

Therefore:

Number of Students with Dark Hair

[tex]=\dfrac{80^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 36\\\\ =8$ students[/tex]

(c)Number of Students with Blonde Hair

[tex]=\dfrac{40^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 36\\\\ =4$ students[/tex]

There are 8 students that have blond hair

There are 24 students that have dark hair

There are 4 students that have red hair

Please find attached the pie chart used in answering this question

A pie chart is a graph that displays information in a circle. The circle is divided into slices which represent a numerical proportion. The sum of angles in a pie chart is 360 degrees

To determine the number of students with a type of hair, use this formula :

(degree of the slice that represents the hair type / 360) x total number of students in the class

Degree of the slice that represents blond hair = 360 - (240 + 40) = 80

Students that have blonde hair = [tex]\frac{80}{360}[/tex]  x 36 = 8

Students that have dark hair = [tex]\frac{240}{360}[/tex] x 36 = 24

Students that have red hair = [tex]\frac{40}{360}[/tex] x 36 = 4

Consider two unique parallel lines. What aspects of
these two lines are the same? What aspects of these two
lines would have to be different? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

The slope of two parallel lines will always be the same. If the slope was slightly different, then the lines would intersect at some point, which breaks the definition of parallel lines.

The y-intercepts of two parallel lines have to be different, or else the two lines would be the same line. If the y-intercept and the slope are the same, then the lines will essentially equal each other.

Answer:

Sample Response: Two parallel lines will have the same slope. The slopes of parallel lines have to be equal. The y-intercepts of those two lines have to be different, otherwise they would be the same line. The x-intercepts of the parallel lines would also be different.

A random sample of adult female reaction times has a sample mean of x¯=394.3 milliseconds and sample standard deviation of s=84.6 milliseconds. Use the Empirical Rule to determine the approximate percentage of adult female reaction times that lie between 140.5 and 648.1 milliseconds.

Answers

Answer:

The percentage of adult female reaction times that lie between 140.5 and 648.1 milliseconds is 99.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 394.3 ms

Standard deviation = 84.6 ms

Use the Empirical Rule to determine the approximate percentage of adult female reaction times that lie between 140.5 and 648.1 milliseconds.

140.5 = 394.3 - 3*84.6

So 140.5 is 3 standard deviations below the mean.

648.1 = 394.3 + 3*84.6

So 648.1 is 3 standard deviations above the mean.

By the Empirical Rule,

The percentage of adult female reaction times that lie between 140.5 and 648.1 milliseconds is 99.7%.

Answer:

The real number 'a' = 32

The real number 'b' = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Product of a number of a number and its conjugate = a + bi

The number is = -4 + 4i

Conjugate of this number is = -4 - 4i

Product of the number and it's conjugate

= (-4 + 4i)(-4 - 4i)

= -4(-4 - 4i) + 4i(-4 - 4i) [By distributive property]

= 16 + 16i - 16i - 16i²

= 16 - 16(-1)

= 16 + 16

= 32

a + bi = 32 + (0)i

By comparing both the sides,

a = 32

Answers

Answer:

24 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for computing the area of a trapezoid is shown below:

As we know that

Area of a trapezium is

[tex]= \frac{1}{2} \times h(a+b)[/tex]

where

h = perpendicular height

The a and b =  length of the parallel sides.

Now,

h = 2 - -2 = 4 units

a = 5 - -3 = 8 units

b = 3 - -1 = 4 units

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the area of a trapezoid is

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{2} \times 4(8+4)[/tex]

[tex]= 2 \times 12[/tex]

= 24 square units.

Hence we applied the above formula so that the area of trapezoid could come
