A candy company claims that 20% of the candies in its bags are colored green. Steve buys 30 bags of 30 candies, randomly selects one candy from each, and counts the number of green candies. If there are 5, 6, or 7 green candies, Steve will conclude that the company’s claim is correct. What is the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim? Use a TI-83, TI-83 plus, or TI-84 calculator to find the probability.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is 0.50502.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote the number of green candies.

The probability of green candies is, p = 0.20.

Steve buys 30 bags of 30 candies, randomly selects one candy from each, and counts the number of green candies.

So, n = 30 candies are randomly selected.

All the candies are independent of each other.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameter n = 30 and p = 0.20.

It is provided that if there are 5, 6, or 7 green candies, Steve will conclude that the company’s claim is correct.

Compute the probability of 5, 6 and 7 green candies as follows:

[tex]P(X=5)={30\choose 5}(0.20)^{5}(1-0.20)^{30-5}=0.17228\\\\P(X=6)={30\choose 6}(0.20)^{6}(1-0.20)^{30-6}=0.17946\\\\P(X=7)={30\choose 7}(0.20)^{7}(1-0.20)^{30-7}=0.15328[/tex]

Then the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is:

P (Accepting the claim) = P (X = 5) + P (X = 6) + P (X = 7)

                                       = 0.17228 + 0.17946 + 0.15328

                                       = 0.50502

Thus, the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is 0.50502.

(1 point) Rework problem 15 in section 2 of Chapter 5 of your textbook about the growing suburb and the declining city using the following data: Assume that the suburb has a population of 320000 and is growing at a rate of 5000 per year. Assume that the city has a population of 624000 and is declining at a rate of 14000 per year. In how many years will the populations of the suburb and the city be equal

Answers

Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

320000 + 5000x

The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

624000 - 14000x

The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:

320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x

14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000

19000x = 304000

x = 304000 / 19000

x = 16

In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal

What is the measure of angle 3?

Answers

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

By the vertical angle theorem, we can find that:

m∠1 = 85

By the corresponding angle theorem, we can find that:

m∠2 = 2x

By the alternate interior angle theorem, we can find that:

m∠3 = x - 10

We also know that angles 1, 2, and 3 are the measures of the angles of a triangle. So:

85 + 2x + (x - 10) = 180

Lets solve for x. Combine like terms.

75 + 3x = 180

Subtract 75 from both sides.

3x = 105

Divide both sides by 3.

x = 35

So now we know that x + 35. Knowing this, we can find the measure of angle 3 by plugging 35 for x in x - 10

m∠3 = 35 - 10 = 25

So the measure of angle 3 is 25.

I hope this helps. Happy studying.

You have two chances to draw from a normal pack of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of drawing an ace on the second attempt if the first card (which you did NOT put back in the pack) was not an ace

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P(k) =0.07843[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The total number of cards is  n  =  52

Generally the number of ace in a standard deck of cards is  k  =  4

Generally the the first card drawn is not an ace so the remaining number of ace after the first card is drawn is  k =  4

also the remaining total number of cards after the first card is drawn is

     N =  n- 1

=>  N =  52 - 1  

=>  N =  51

Generally the probability of drawing an ace on the second attempt if the first card (which you did NOT put back in the pack) was not an ace is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P(k) =\frac{k}{N}[/tex]

=>      [tex]P(k) =\frac{4}{51}[/tex]

=>      [tex]P(k) =0.07843[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

0.940

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Age in years(X) _____Height(Y)

7 _________ 47.3

8 _________48.8

5 __________41.3

8 _________ 50.4

8 ___________51

7 __________47.1

7 __________46.9

7 ___________48

9 __________51.2

8 __________51.2

5 __________40.3

8 __________48.9

6 __________45.2

5 __________41.9

8 __________49.6

The proportion of Variation explained by the line of best fit in a regression model can be determined by calculating the Coefficient of determination (R²) of the model.

Using the online R² calculator, the variation in the sample values of height which is estimated by the model is 0.9696² = 0.94012416.

Hence about 0.94 or 94% variation in sample values of height is estimated by the model while (1 - 0.94 = 0.06 or 6%) is explained by other factors.

Televisions are on sale for 40% OFF the original price of $600. After tax (8.5%) is applied, what is the final price?​

Answers

First, determine what is 40% of $600. Multiple 40 (as a decimal) by 600.

0.4 x 600 = 240

Therefore, the discount is $240 off $600.

Subtract the two values to find price (before tax): 600 - 240 = 360

So the TV will cost $360 before tax.

The tax is 8.5%. Multiply 8.5 as a decimal by 360 to find the amount of tax added.

0.085 x 360 = 30.6

Add 30.6 and the price before tax to find the final price.

30.6 + 360 = 390.60

Therefore, the final price of the TV is $390.60

The mean useful life of car batteries is 48 months. They have a standard deviation of 3. Assume the useful life of batteries is normally distributed. a. Calculate the percent of batteries with a useful life of less than 45 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.) b. Calculate the percent of batteries that will last longer than 54 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.)

Answers

Answer:

a) 15.9%

b) 2.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We solving using z score formula. This formula is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

a. Calculate the percent of batteries with a useful life of less than 45 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.)

x = 45, μ = 48, σ = 3

z = 45 - 48/3

= -1

Probability value from Z-Table:

The probability of batteries with a useful life of less than 45 months so

P(x<45) = 0.15866

Converting to percentage

0.15866 × 100 = 15.866

Approximately to the nearest tenth of a percent = 15.9%

b. Calculate the percent of batteries that will last longer than 54 months. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth percent.)

x = 58, μ = 48, σ = 3

z = 58 - 48/3

= 2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<54) = 0.97725

P(x>54) = 1 - P(x<54)

= 0.02275

The probability of batteries that will last longer than 54 months is 0.02275

Converting to percentage

0.02275 × 100

= 2.275%

Approximately to the nearest tenth of a percentage = 2.3%

Suppose that you are attempting to estimate the annual income of 1700 families. In order to use the infinite standard deviation formula, what sample size, n, should you use

Answers

Answer:

Sample size should be less than 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size should be less than 85

Step-by-step explanation:

To use the infinite standard deviation formula, n has to be <= (0.05)(1700)

n <= 85

So the sample size has to be less than 85

In another way too,

n = sample size

N = population size

For population, we multiply correction factor to the infinite standard deviation

F is <= 0.05

[tex]n/{N} <0.05[/tex]

n<0.05x1700

n<85

Sample size should be less than 85

Two pools are being filled with water. To start, the first pool had 1850 liters of water and the second pool had 1334 liters of water. Water is being added to the first pool at a rate of 27 liters per minute. Water is being added to the second pool at a rate of 39 liters per minute. (a) For each pool, write an expression for the amount of water in each pool after x months. (b) Write an equation to show when the two pools would have the same amount of water.

Answers

Answer:

a)Total amount of water in pool 1 after x minutes = 1850+27x

Total amount of water in pool 2 after x minutes = 1334+39x

b) an equation to show when the two pools would have the same amount of water is 1850+27x= 1334+39x

Step-by-step explanation:

First Pool :

Initial amount of water in Pool = 1850 liters

Water is being added to the first pool at a rate of 27 liters per minute.

Amount of water added after x minutes = 27x

So, Total amount of water after x minutes = 1850+27x

Second Pool:

Initial amount of water in Pool = 1334 liters

Water is being added to the first pool at a rate of 39 liters per minute.

Amount of water added after x minutes = 39x

So, Total amount of water after x minutes = 1334+39x

Now to find  an equation to show when the two pools would have the same amount of water.

1850+27x= 1334+39x

1850-1334=39x-27x

516=12x

[tex]\frac{516}{12}=x[/tex]

43 =x

Hence

a)Total amount of water in pool 1 after x minutes = 1850+27x

Total amount of water in pool 2 after x minutes = 1334+39x

b) an equation to show when the two pools would have the same amount of water is 1850+27x= 1334+39x

Answer:

Janisa found that home health care is the fastest-growing occupation and services for the elderly is the fastest growing industry, while Rylan found that elementary and secondary school teaching are the occupations with the highest employment and retail sales is the industry with the highest employment.

Explanation:

We make this conclusion because when we look at all the other options none matches the definition of occupations and industries. However, if Janisa found that home health care is the fastest-growing occupation, and then services for the elderly are the fastest growing industry, it matches what we know an industry and occupation mean.

While, if Rylan found that elementary and secondary school teaching are the occupations with the highest employment, it matches an example of occupation also, and if he discovers that retail sales is the industry with the highest employment it also falls under industry types.

However, the other options mismatched industry examples for occupations.

Therefore, the blue line would have a positive slope. Since the blue line with a positive slope is perpendicular to the red line with a negative slope, therefore, the slope of the line with a positive slope that we are looking for and that is perpendicular to one of the lines (red line) would be the same with the slope of the blue line.

The slope of the blue line is calculated as shown below:

Use the coordinates of these two points on the blue line to find the slope, (0, 1) and (4, 4)
