Answer:
a) 240 ways
b) 12 ways
c) 108 ways
d) 132 ways
e) i) 0.55
ii) 0.4125
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the components:
Receiver, compound disk player, speakers, turntable.
Then a purcahser is offered a choice of manufacturer for each component:
Receiver: Kenwood, Onkyo, Pioneer, Sony, Sherwood => 5 offers
Compact disc player: Onkyo, Pioneer, Sony, Technics => 4 offers
Speakers: Boston, Infinity, Polk => 3 offers
Turntable: Onkyo, Sony, Teac, Technics => 4 offers
a) The number of ways one component of each type can be selected =
[tex] \left(\begin{array}{ccc}5\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right) [/tex]
[tex] = 5 * 4 * 3 * 4 = 240 ways [/tex]
b) If both the receiver and compact disk are to be sony.
In the receiver, the purchaser was offered 1 Sony, also in the CD(compact disk) player the purchaser was offered 1 Sony.
Thus, the number of ways components can be selected if both receiver and player are to be Sony is:
[tex] \left(\begin{array}{ccc}1\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}1\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right) [/tex]
[tex] = 1 * 1 * 3 * 4 = 12 ways [/tex]
c) If none is to be Sony.
Let's exclude Sony from each component.
Receiver has 1 sony = 5 - 1 = 4
CD player has 1 Sony = 4 - 1 = 3
Speakers had 0 sony = 3 - 0 = 3
Turntable has 1 sony = 4 - 1 = 3
Therefore, the number of ways can be selected if none is to be sony:
[tex] \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) [/tex]
[tex] = 4 * 3 * 3 * 3 = 108 ways [/tex]
d) If at least one sony is to be included.
Number of ways can a selection be made if at least one Sony component is to be included =
Total possible selections - possible selections without Sony
= 240 - 108
= 132 ways
e) If someone flips switches on the selection in a completely random fashion.
i) Probability of selecting at least one Sony component=
Possible selections with at least one sony / Total number of possible selections
[tex] \frac{132}{240} = 0.55 [/tex]
ii) Probability of selecting exactly one sony component =
Possible selections with exactly one sony / Total number of possible selections.
[tex] \frac{\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) + \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}1\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) + \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\1\end{array}\right) \left(\begin{array}{ccc}1\\1\end{array}\right)}{240} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{(1*3*3*3)+(4*1*3*3)+(4*3*3*1)}{240} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{27 + 36 + 36}{240} = \frac{99}{240} = 0.4125 [/tex]
Marina had 24,500 to invest. She divided the money into three different accounts. At the end of the year, she had made RM1,300 in interest. The annual yield on each of the three accounts was 4%, 5.5%, and 6%. If the amount of money in the 4% account was four times the amount of money in the 5.5% account, how much had she placed in each account?
Answer:
See below
Bold parts are important parts. They are the equations.
Marina had RM24,500 to invest.
If the amount of money in the 4% account was four times the amount of money in the 5.5% account.
" At the end of the year, she had made RM1,300 in interest. The annual yield on each of the three accounts was 4%, 5.5%, and 6%."
"If the amount of money in the 4% account was four times the amount of money in the 5.5% account,"
a = 4b
Down is the equations.
let a = amt in the 4% acct
let b = amt in the 5.5% acct
let c = amt in the 6%
"Marina had RM 24,500 to invest."
a + b + c = 24500
Replace a with 4b in both equations, simplify
b = $2000 in the 5.5% investment
a = $8000 in the 4% acct
Hope this helps.
Marina invested $ 8000 at 4%, $ 2000 at 5.5%, and $ 14,500 at 6%.
Since Marina had $ 24,500 to invest, and she divided the money into three different accounts, and at the end of the year, she had made $ 1,300 in interest, and the annual yield on each of the three accounts was 4%, 5.5%, and 6%, to determine, if the amount of money in the 4% account was four times the amount of money in the 5.5% account, how much had she placed in each account, the following calculation must be performed:
4000 x 0.04 + 1000 x 0.055 + 19500 x 0.06 = 1385 8000 x 0.04 + 2000 x 0.055 + 14500 x 0.06 = 1300
Therefore, Marina invested $ 8000 at 4%, $ 2000 at 5.5%, and $ 14,500 at 6%.

Some parts of California are particularly earthquake-prone. Suppose that in one metropolitan area, 33% of all homeowners are insured against earthquake damage. Four homeowners are to be selected at random. Let X denote the number among the four who have earthquake insurance. A) Find the probability distribution of X.B) What is the most likely value for X?
C) What is the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance?
Answer:
(a) The probability mass function of X is:
[tex]P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.33)^{x}\ (1-0.33)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...[/tex]
(b) The most likely value for X is 1.32.
(c) The probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance is 0.4015.
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable X is defined as the number among the four homeowners who have earthquake insurance.
The probability that a homeowner has earthquake insurance is, p = 0.33.
The random sample of homeowners selected is, n = 4.
The event of a homeowner having an earthquake insurance is independent of the other three homeowners.
(a)
All the statements above clearly indicate that the random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 4 and p = 0.33.
The probability mass function of X is:
[tex]P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.33)^{x}\ (1-0.33)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...[/tex]
(b)
The most likely value of a random variable is the expected value.
The expected value of a Binomial random variable is:
[tex]E(X)=np[/tex]
Compute the expected value of X as follows:
[tex]E(X)=np[/tex]
[tex]=4\times 0.33\\=1.32[/tex]
Thus, the most likely value for X is 1.32.
(c)
Compute the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance as follows:
P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)
= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)
[tex]=1-{4\choose 0}\ (0.33)^{0}\ (1-0.33)^{4-0}-{4\choose 1}\ (0.33)^{1}\ (1-0.33)^{4-1}\\\\=1-0.20151121-0.39700716\\\\=0.40148163\\\\\approx 0.4015[/tex]
Thus, the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance is 0.4015.

Solve this equation for x: 2x^2 + 12x - 7 = 0
What is the first step to solve this equation?
-combine like terms
-factor the trinomial
-isolate the constant term by adding 7 to both sides
Answer:
x=0.5355 or x=-6.5355
First step is to: Isolate the constant term by adding 7 to both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to solve this equation: [tex]2x^2 + 12x - 7 = 0[/tex]
On observation, the trinomial is not factorizable so we use the Completing the square method.
Step 1: Isolate the constant term by adding 7 to both sides
[tex]2x^2 + 12x - 7+7 = 0+7\\2x^2 + 12x=7[/tex]
Step 2: Divide the equation all through by the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] which is 2.
[tex]x^2 + 6x=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Step 3: Divide the coefficient of x by 2, square it and add it to both sides.
Coefficient of x=6
Divided by 2=3
Square of 3=[tex]3^2[/tex]
Therefore, we have:
[tex]x^2 + 6x+3^2=\frac{7}{2}+3^2[/tex]
Step 4: Write the Left Hand side in the form [tex](x+k)^2[/tex]
[tex](x+3)^2=\frac{7}{2}+3^2\\(x+3)^2=12.5\\[/tex]
Step 5: Take the square root of both sides and solve for x
[tex]x+3=\pm\sqrt{12.5}\\x=-3\pm \sqrt{12.5}\\x=-3+ \sqrt{12.5}, $ or $x= -3- \sqrt{12.5}\\$x=0.5355 or x=-6.5355[/tex]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Isolate the constant term by adding 7 to both sides of the equation.
Step 2: Factor 2 from the binomial.
Step 3: 9
Step 3 b: 18
Step4: write the trinomial as the square root of a binomial.
Step 5: divide both sides of the equation by 2 Step
6: Apply the square root property of equality Step
7: subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

Assume that random guesses are made for nine multiple choice questions on an SAT test, so that there are nequals9 trials, each with probability of success (correct) given by pequals0.35. Find the indicated probability for the number of correct answers.
Find the probability that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4.
P(x<4)= ???
Answer: the probability that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4 is 0.61
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable representing the answers to the SAT questions. This is a binomial distribution since the outcomes are two ways. It is either the answer is correct or incorrect. Also, the probability of success or failure is constant for each trial. The probability of success, p = 0.35
The probability of failure, q would be 1 - p = 1 - 0.35 = 0.65
We want to determine P(x < 4)
n = number of trial = 9
x = 4
From the binomial distribution calculator,
P(x < 4) = 0.61
Find the slope of the line on the graph. Write your answer or a whole number, not a mixed number or decimal
Answer:
-3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope can be found through the equation y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
Finding two points on this line is what we start by doing.
Two points on the line I see are (0,-4) and (2, -7)
Plugging this into the slope formula gives us -7 - (-4) / 2 - 0
Solving this gives us -3 / 2 as the slope.
Ariana is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 3.4% compounded monthly. How much would Ariana need to invest, to the nearest dollar, for the value of the account to reach $9,200 in 14 years?
Answer:
Ariana is going to invest P($) in an account paying an interest rate of 3.4% compounded monthly.
After 14 years, the amount of money in Adrina's account is calculated by:
A = P x (1 + rate)^(time)
or
A = P x (1 + 3.4/12)^(14 x 12)
or
9200 = P x (1 + 3.4/12)^(14 x 12)
=> P = 9200/[(1 + 3.4/12)^(14 x 12)]
=> P = 5791.044$
Hope this helps!
:)
The value of the account to reach $9,200 in 14 years is $5,791.
Calculation of the value of the account:Since interest rate of 3.4% compounded monthly. And, the amount is $9,200 in 14 years
So, the value should be
[tex]A = P \times (1 + rate)^{(time)}\\\\A = P \times (1 + 3.4/12)^{(14 \times 12)}\\\\9200 = P \times (1 + 3.4/12)^{(14 \times 12)}\\\\ P = 9200\div [(1 + 3.4/12)^{(14 \times 12)]}[/tex]
P = $5791
hence, The value of the account to reach $9,200 in 14 years is $5,791.

the area of the base of a can is 45 square inches.its height is 12 inches.if 1/3 of the height is cut off,what will be the volume of the can?
Answer:
volume = 360 inches³
Step-by-step explanation:
The can itself is a cylinder. The volume of a cylinder can be calculated as follows
volume of a cylinder = πr²h
where
r = radius
h = height
1/3 of the height was cut off that means 1/3 × 12 = 4 inches of the height was cut off. The new height of the can will be 12 - 4 = 8 inches. Therefore,
volume = πr²h =
base area which is the area of a circle = πr² = 45 inches²
volume = 45 × 8
volume = 360 inches³

Express the complex number in trigonometric form.
-6 + 6\sqrt(3) i
Answer:
12(cos120°+isin120°)Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular form of a complex number is expressed as z = x+iy
where the modulus |r| = [tex]\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}[/tex] and the argument [tex]\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}[/tex]
In polar form, x = [tex]rcos\theta \ and\ y = rsin\theta[/tex]
[tex]z = rcos\theta+i(rsin\theta)\\z = r(cos\theta+isin\theta)[/tex]
Given the complex number, [tex]z = -6+6\sqrt{3} i[/tex]. To express in trigonometric form, we need to get the modulus and argument of the complex number.
[tex]r = \sqrt{(-6)^{2}+(6\sqrt{3} )^{2}}\\r = \sqrt{36+(36*3)} \\r = \sqrt{144}\\ r = 12[/tex]
For the argument;
[tex]\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{6\sqrt{3} }{-6} \\\theta = tan^{-1}-\sqrt{3} \\\theta = -60^{0}[/tex]
Since tan is negative in the 2nd and 4th quadrant, in the 2nd quadrant,
[tex]\theta =180-60\\\theta = 120^{0}[/tex]
z = 12(cos120°+isin120°)
This gives the required expression.
What is the surface area of a triangular prism
Answer:
608 (D)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of the prism, just add all the areas in the nets together.
The rectangle in the middle has an area of 192 because it is a 12x16 triangle so you multiply the sides.
Both the rectangles on the top and bottom have an area of 160 because they are both a 10x16. The total of the 2 rectangles would be 320 because 160+160=320.
The triangles on the right each have an area of 48 because the Base=12 and the Height= 8. The formula for finding the area of a triangle is 1/2(BH). 1/2(12*8)= 1/2(96)= 48. There are 2 triangles like this so the totla area of both triangles is 96.
To find the surface area, you just add them all up. 96+320+192= 608

p (x <= 3) = 8C0 * (0.65) ^ 0 * (0.35) ^ 8 + 8C1 * (0.65) ^ 1 * (0.35) ^ 7 + 8C2 * (0.65) ^ 2 * (0.35) ^ 6 + 8C3 * (0.65) ^ 3 * (0.35) ^ 5
p (x <= 3) = 8! / (0! (8-0)!) * (0.65) ^ 0 * (0.35) ^ 8 + 8! / (1! (8-1)!) * (0.65 ) ^ 1 * (0.35) ^ 7 + 8! / (2! (8-2)!) * (0.65) ^ 2 * (0.35) ^ 6 + 8! / (3! (8-3)!) * (0.65) ^ 3 * (0.35) ^ 5
p (x <= 3) = 0.1060
therefore the probability is 10.60%
Answer:
The probability that at most 3 of the southerners believe in angels is 10.61%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
65% believe in angels = p
then, 35% will not believe in angel = q
total sample number, n = 8
The probability that at most 3 southerners believe in angels is calculated as;
= p( non believe in angel) or p( 1 southerner believes and 7 will not believe) or p( 2 southerner believe and 6 will not believe) or p( 3 southerner believe and 5 will not believe)
= 8C₀(0.65)⁰(0.35)⁸ + 8C₁(0.65)¹(0.35)⁷ + 8C₂(0.65)²(0.35)⁶ + 8C₃(0.65)³(0.35)⁵
= 1(1 x 0.000225) + 8(0.65 x 0.000643) + 28(0.4225 x 0.00184) + 56(0.2746 x 0.00525)
= 0.1061
= 10.61%
Therefore, the probability that at most 3 of the southerners believe in angels is 10.61%
Ocean fishing for billfish is very popular in the Cozumel region of Mexico. In the Cozumel region about 41% of strikes (while trolling) resulted in a catch. Suppose that on a given day a fleet of fishing boats got a total of 29 strikes. Find the following probabilities. a) 12 or fewer fish were caught.b) 5 or more fish were caught.c) between 5 and 12 fish were caught.
Answer:
a) 59.10% probability that 12 or fewer fish were caught.
b) 99.74% probability that 5 or more fish were caught.
c) 58.84% probability that between 5 and 12 fish were caught.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].
In this problem, we have that:
[tex]n = 29, p = 0.41[/tex]
So
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 29*0.41 = 11.89[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = 2.6486[/tex]
Find the following probabilities.
a) 12 or fewer fish were caught.
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 12 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 12.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 12.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{12.5 - 11.89}{2.6486}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.23[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.23[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5910
59.10% probability that 12 or fewer fish were caught.
b) 5 or more fish were caught.
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 5 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 4.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{4.5 - 11.89}{2.6486}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.79[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.79[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0026
1 - 0.0026 = 0.9974
99.74% probability that 5 or more fish were caught.
c) between 5 and 12 fish were caught.
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(5 - 0.5 \leq X \leq 12 + 0.5) = P(4.5 \leq X \leq 12.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 12.5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.5. So.
From a), when X = 12.5, Z has a pvalue of 0.5910
From b), when X = 4.5, Z has a pvalue of 0.0026.
So
0.5910 - 0.0026 = 0.5884
58.84% probability that between 5 and 12 fish were caught.
