In the book Chances: risk and odds in Everyday Life, author James Burke says that approximately 57% of the general US population wears glasses or contacts. If two people are chosen at random from the US population, what is the probability that both wear glasses or contacts?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Pr = 32.49\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let E represents the event of wearing glasses or contacts.

So;

[tex]P(E) =57\%[/tex]

Required

The probability that selected 2 wears glasses

This is calculated as:

[tex]Pr = P(E)\ and\ P(E)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = P(E)\ *\ P(E)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 57\% * 57\%[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.57 * 0.57[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.3249[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 32.49\%[/tex]

Answer:

  14.14

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of a square is √2 times the side length.

  AC = AB×√2

  AC = 10√2 ≈ 14.14

_____

The diagonal of a square is the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle. If the sides of that are s and the diagonal is d, the Pythagorean theorem tells us ...

  d² = s² + s²

  d² = 2s²

  d = (√2)(√s²) = s√2

This relation holds for any isosceles right triangle, not just for the diagonal of this square. It is useful to remember.

8x + 3y = 45 * -2 Negative
2x + 3y = 27 * 8 Positive

24y is equal to 216
y is equal to 216/or 24
y is equal to 9

Which means:
8 + 3y = 216
y = 216/24
y = 9


8x + 3y = 45
8x + 3 (Which is 9) = 45

Complete question :

Seven cards are drawn from an ordinary deck. In how mnat ways is it possible to draw (a) only 5s (b)only 8s, 9s, and 10s, (c) no 8s, 9s, and 10s (d) exactly 2 jacks or kings, (e) 5 spades and 2 hearts?

Answer:

0; 792 ; 100396 ; 30408224 ; 18643560 ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cards in a deck = 52

Number of cards to be drawn = 7

Using combination:

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

A.)

Number of 5's in a deck = 4

4C7 = 0

(B.)

only 8s, 9s, and 10s,

Number of 8, 9 and 10's = 4 *3 = 12

12C7 = 12! ÷ 5!7! = 792

(C)

no 8s, 9s, and 10s ;

Number of cards to select from = 52 - (3(4)) = 40C7 = 18643560

(D)

exactly 2 jacks or kings,

Number of jack or king in deck = 8 ; other 5 could be any of the rest : (52 - 8) = 44

8C2 * 44C5 = 28 * 1086008 = 30408224

(e) 5 spades and 2 hearts?

Number of spades = 13

Number of hearts = 13

13C5 * 13C2

1287 * 78 = 100396

Canine Crunchies Inc. (CCI) sells bags of dog food to warehouse clubs. CCI uses an automatic filling process to fill the bags. Weights of the filled bags are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 45 kilograms and a standard deviation of 1.2 kilograms.

Requried:
a. What is the probability that a filled bag will weigh less than 49.5 kilograms?
b. What is the probability that a randomly sampled filled bag will weight between 48.5 and 51 kilograms?
c. What is the minimum weight a bag of dog food could be and remain in the top 15% of all bags filled?
d. CCI is unable to adjust the mean of the filling process. However, it is able to adjust the standard deviation of the filling process. What would the standard deviation need to be so that no more than 2% of all filled bags weigh more than 52 kilograms?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.9999 = 99.99% probability that a filled bag will weigh less than 49.5 kilograms

b) 0.0018 = 0.18% probability that a randomly sampled filled bag will weight between 48.5 and 51 kilograms.

c) 46.24 kilograms

d) The standard deviation would have to be of 3.41 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

Mean of 45 kilograms and a standard deviation of 1.2 kilograms.

This means that [tex]\mu = 45, \sigma = 1.2[/tex]

a. What is the probability that a filled bag will weigh less than 49.5 kilograms?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 49.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{49.5 - 45}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.75[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9999

0.9999 = 99.99% probability that a filled bag will weigh less than 49.5 kilograms

b. What is the probability that a randomly sampled filled bag will weight between 48.5 and 51 kilograms?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 51 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 48.5.

X = 51

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

[tex]Z = \frac{51 - 45}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 5[/tex] has a pvalue of 1

X = 48.5

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

[tex]Z = \frac{48.5 - 45}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.92[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.92[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9982

1 - 0.9982 = 0.0018

0.0018 = 0.18% probability that a randomly sampled filled bag will weight between 48.5 and 51 kilograms.

c. What is the minimum weight a bag of dog food could be and remain in the top 15% of all bags filled?

This is the 100 - 15 = 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.85. So X when Z = 1.037

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

[tex]1.037 = \frac{X - 45}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex]X - 45 = 1.037*1.2[/tex]

[tex]X = 46.24[/tex]

46.24 kilograms.

d. CCI is unable to adjust the mean of the filling process. However, it is able to adjust the standard deviation of the filling process. What would the standard deviation need to be so that no more than 2% of all filled bags weigh more than 52 kilograms?

X = 52 would have to be the 100 - 2 = 98th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.98, so X when Z = 2.054. We would need to find the value of [tex]\sigma[/tex] for this.

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

[tex]2.054 = \frac{52 - 45}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]2.054\sigma = 7[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \frac{7}{2.054}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 3.41[/tex]

The standard deviation would have to be of 3.41 kilograms.

Answers

Answer:

x= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to distribute each side! (you're gonna wanna learn this because you will be having to do it for the next 3 years no joke it sucks)

7(x+2) can be distributed as 7x+14 after multiplying 7 times x and 7 times 2, and 6(x+5) can be distributed as 6x+30.

Now, you have to get the x on one side to solve for x (so like x=__).

To do this, look at the equation as of now. 7x+14=6x+30.

We can minus 14 and bring that to the right, and minus 6x and bring that to the left to separate the x's and the regular numbers.

Now we have  16=x (or x=16).

Check the conditions for constructing a confidence interval for the difference in proportions.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct confidence interval for difference in proportion ; the following conditions must be met :

1.) The selected samples must have been randomly chosen or selected from a larger population. This is essential in other to eliminate bias.

Each group of samples must be independently chosen. That is, the samples of bug customers chosen must be independent of the sample of small customers selected.

The population from which the samples are drawn must be considerably larger than the sample size. Sample size, n should be ≤ 10% of the population size.

p1 = 160 / 200 = 0.8 ; (1 - p1) = 0.2

p2 = 120 / 300 = 0.4 ; (1 - p2) = 0.6

Answer:

[tex]P(n>55)=0.1357[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=100

Sample space n'=36

Generally the equation for the mean number of times odds appears is mathematically given by

[tex]\=x_o=hp[/tex]

[tex]\=x_o=100*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\=x_o=50[/tex]

Generally the equation for standard deviation is mathematically given by

[tex]\sigma=(hp(1-p))^{1/2}\\\sigma=(50(0.5))^{1/2}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=5[/tex]

Therefore probability to make wrong decision P(n>55)

[tex]P(n>55)=1-P(z<50.5/5)\\P(n>55)=1-P(z<1.1)\\P(n>55)=1-0.86[/tex]

[tex]P(n>55)=0.1357[/tex]

An approximation for the probability that you will make the wrong decision is 0.1587.

Probability

S=Number of time that the result was odd

n=100

p=0.5

Hence:

E[S]=100×0.5

E[S]=50

Standard deviation=√100×0.5×0.5

Standard deviation√25

Standard deviation=5

Using normal approximation to the binomial

P(S≥55)=P(S-50/5 ≥ 55-50/5)

P(S≥55)=1-P(z ≤ 1)

P(S≥55)=1-0.8413

P(S≥55)= 0.1587

Inconclusion  an approximation for the probability that you will make the wrong decision is 0.1587.
