On Roberto’s shelf he has 6 mystery books, 5 science fiction, 4 history and 3 adventure. Roberto will randomly choose 1 book to read. What is the probability that he will choose an adventure book?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3/18, or simplified, he has a 1/6 chance of grabbing an adventure book.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + 5 + 4 + 3 = 18. There's 3 adventure books, which makes it so that he has a 3/18 chance of it being an adventure book. How did I simplify? 18 ÷ 3 = 6, 3 ÷ 3 = 1.

According to a recent survey, 31 percent of the residents of a certain state who are age 25 years or older have a bachelor’s degree. A random sample of 50 residents of the state, age 25 years or older, will be selected. Let the random variable B represent the number in the sample who have a bachelor’s degree. What is the probability that B will equal 40 ?

Answers

Answer:

The probability of  getting B=40 is [tex]0.11\times 10^{-11}[/tex] which is negligible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 31 percent of the residents of a certain state who are age 25 years or older have a bachelor’s degree.

Assuming the population of the state aged 25 years or more is Bernoulli's population.

So, when 1 person aged 25 years or more from the state selected randomly, the probability of that person, p, having a bachelor’s degree,

[tex]p= 31/100=0.31\cdots(i)[/tex]

Now, according to Bernoulli's formula, the probability of exactly r success from the total number of sample n is

[tex]P(r)=\binom{n} {r}p^r(1-p)^{n-r}\cdots(ii)[/tex]

where p is the probability of success.

Here, a random sample of 50 residents of the state, age 25 years or older, will be selected.

So, n=50.

Given that variable B represents the number in the sample who have a bachelor’s degree,

We have to find the probability that B will equal 40.

So, r=B= 40.

Now, putting these values in equation(ii) and using p=0.25 from equation (i), we have

[tex]P(r=40)=\binom{50} {40}(0.31)^{40}(1-0.31)^{50-40}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac {50!}{40! (50-40)!}(0.31)^{40}(0.69)^{10} \\\\=\frac {50!}{40! \times 10!}(0.31)^{40}(0.69)^{10} \\\\=0.11\times 10^{-11}[/tex]

So, the probability of  getting B=40 is [tex]0.11\times 10^{-11}[/tex] which is negligible.

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a [tex]1.13 \times 10^{-12}[/tex] probability that B will equal 40.

-----------------------------

For each resident, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a bachelor's degree, or they do not. The probability of a resident having a bachelor degree is independent of any other resident, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials.

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

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

31% have a bachelor's degree, thus [tex]p = 0.31[/tex].Sample of 50, thus [tex]n = 50[/tex].

The probability is:

[tex]P(B = 40) = C_{50,40}(0.31)^{40}(0.69)^{10} = 1.13 \times 10^{-12}[/tex]  

[tex]1.13 \times 10^{-12}[/tex] probability that B will equal 40.

Korey plants trees at a constant rate of 12 trees every 3 hours. What is an equation that relates p, the number of trees that korey plants, and h, the time he spends planting them in hours.

Answers

Answer:

p=4h

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that Korey plants 12 trees every 3 hours we then can figure out how many trees he plants in 1 hour, by dividing the ratio (12) to the rate (3) by doing that we get 4, which is the amount of trees that he would plant in 1 hour. Then the number of tree's that he plants (p) would equal 4 times how many hours he spends planting them.

Your teacher messed up the question so just put the top right answer and ask your teacher if they did accidently miss-type.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do in this equation is look at the exponents. When multiplying a variable (or any number equal to itself with the same exponent) you only have to add the exponent. So for a, you would add the exponents to get 0, so a to the power of 0 is 1, because any number to the power of 0 is 1. For b, we would add the 3 and 1. (When no exponenet is present in a number then it is 1, so for this I added 3 and 1). So it would be 4. The correct answer is

Write the decimal 0.68 as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

17/25

Step-by-step explanation:

First put it into fraction form: 68/100

Simplify in no particular order just make sure that what you do to the top, you do to the bottom: 68÷2=34 100÷2=50

Simplify as many times needed: 34/50 34÷2=17 50÷2=25

You have your answer! 17/25

The fraction in the simplest form of the decimal 0.68 is 17 /25.

The decimal form is 0.68. We are told to convert to the fraction form in it simplest form. Therefore,

0.68 = 68 / 100 = 17 / 25

The logic behind it is moving the decimal 2 points forward . This beget 2 zero's in the denominator. Moving the decimal 2 points forward makes 0.68 to become 68 and the denominator takes 2 zero's which makes it the same as 68 / 100. When we reduce it we get 17 /25.

1. How far did they climb in the first 2 hours?

2. How far did they climb in 5 hours

3. How far did they climb in the final 15 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A professional climber makes his way up to 828 meters in 6 hours in Burj Khalifa.

Therefore; in two hours, he would have climbed:

x = (828 m × 2hrs)/6 hrs

x = 276 miles

In five hours, he would have climbed;

y = ( 828 m × 5 hrs)/6 hrs

y = 690 miles

SInce 60 minutes = 1 hour

Then 15 minutes will be ( 15)/60 = 0.25 hours

Thus, in the last 15 minutes;

He climbed  = (828 m × 0.25 hrs)/6 hrs = 34.5 miles
