The school newspaper surveyed 100 commuter students and asked three questions. First, students were asked how many courses they were currently enrolled in. Second, the commuter students were asked to estimate how long it took them to drive to campus. And third, they were asked their heights. Identify the type of random variable being measured by each.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of courses they were currently enrolled in is a discrete random variable.

The time it took them to drive to campus is a continuous random variable.

Their heights is a continuous random variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Random variables:

Random variables can be classified as continuous or discrete.

Discrete variables are countable numbers(0,1,2,...), while continuous variables can assume decimal values.

First, students were asked how many courses they were currently enrolled in.

Can be 0,1,2,... that is, has to be a countable number, so the number of courses they were currently enrolled in is a discrete random variable.

Second, the commuter students were asked to estimate how long it took them to drive to campus.

Can be for example, 10.5 minutes, half an hour, that is, can be represented by decimal values, and thus the time it took them to drive to campus is a continuous random variable.

And third, they were asked their heights.

Can also be decimal numbers, so continuous.

Bowl B1 contains one white and two red chips; bowl B2 contains two white and two red chips; bowl B3 contains one white and four red chips. The probabilities of selecting bowl B1, B2, or B3 are 0.3, 0.2, and 0.5, respectively. A bowl is selected using these probabilities and a chip is then drawn at random. Find:

a. P(W), the probability of drawing a white chip.
b. P(B1 Given W), the conditional probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.3 = 30% probability of drawing a white chip.

b) 0.3333 = 33.33% probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

a. P(W), the probability of drawing a white chip.

1/3(one white out of 3) of 0.3(from B1).

1/2(two white out of 4) of 0.2(from B2).

1/5(one white out of 5) of 0.5(from B3). So

[tex]P(W) = 0.3333*0.3 + 0.5*0.2 + 0.2*0.5 = 0.3[/tex]

0.3 = 30% probability of drawing a white chip.

b. P(B1 Given W), the conditional probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

The probability of drawing a white chip from B1 is 1/3 out of 0.3, so:

[tex]P(B1 \cap W) = 0.3\frac{1}{3} = 0.1[/tex]

Then the conditional probability is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1}{0.3} = 0.3333[/tex]

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

The weight of a product is normally distributed with a mean of 4 ounces and a variance of .25 squared ounces. What is the probability that a randomly selected unit from a recently manufactured batch weighs more than 5 ounces

Answers

Answer: 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the weight of a product.

The probability that a randomly selected unit from a recently manufactured batch weighs more than 5 ounces:

[tex]P(X>5)\\\\=P(\dfrac{X-Mean}{\sqrt{Variance}}>\dfrac{5-4}{\sqrt{0.25}})\\\\=P(Z>\dfrac{1}{0.5}) \ \ \ [z=\dfrac{X-Mean}{\sqrt{Variance}}]\\\\=P(z>2)\\\\=1-P(Z<2)\\\\=1-0.9772\ \ [\text{Using p value table}]\\\\=0.0228[/tex]

Hence, the required probability = 0.0228

The height of the tank is 11 m and the radius of the tank is 5 m. the height of the water is 6 m and the radius of the water is 3 m. how much more water in cubic meters could you fit in the tank?

Answers

Answer:

221 cubic metre.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of water in tank (v) = π × {3}^{2} × 6

= 54π cubic metre

Volume of tank (v') = π × {5}^{2} × 11

= 275π cubic metre

More Water that can be fit in the tank = v' - v

=275π - 54π

= 221π cubic metre.

The following functions give the populations of four towns with time tt in years.
(i) P=600(1.12)^t
(ii) P=1,000(1.03)^t
(iii) P=200(1.08)^t
(iv) P=900(0.90)^t
Which town has the largest percent growth rate? What is the percent growth rate?

Answers

Solution :

Transforming given equations :

[tex]1)\ P = 600( 1 + \dfrac{12}{100})^t\\\\2)\ P = 1000( 1 + \dfrac{3}{100})^t\\\\3)\ P = 200( 1 + \dfrac{8}{100})^t\\\\4)\ P = 900( 1 - \dfrac{10}{100})^t[/tex]

From above equations we can see that equation 1) has largest percentage growth rate and the percent growth rate is 12% .

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer: (i), 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The Population of four towns is given

(i) [tex]P=600(1.12)^t[/tex] i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow P=600(1+0.12)^t\\\Rightarrow P=600(1+12\%)^t[/tex]

rate=12%

(ii) [tex]P=1000(1.03)^t[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow P=1000(1+0.03)^t\\\Rightarrow P=1000(1+3\%)^t[/tex]

rate=3%

(iii) [tex]P=200(1.08)^t[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow P=300(1+0.08)^t\\\Rightarrow P=300(1+8\%)^t[/tex]

rate=8%

(iv) [tex]P=900(0.90)^t[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow P=900(1-0.10)^t\\\Rightarrow P=900(1-10\%)^t[/tex]

rate=10% fall

So, the largest growth rate is for town (i)  i.e. 12%

Area and circumference of this circle

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The radius is 6 cm

To find the area + circumference we need to use 2 formulas:

Area: pi* radius^2

Circumference: 2*pi*r

First we can do the area

I will use "pi" for pi instead of 3.14

pi * 6^2

= 36 pi

The area is 36 pi

Next, circumference

2 * pi *r

2*pi*6

= 12 pi

So the area is 36 pi, and the circumference is 12 pi
