There is a 0.9986 probability that a randomly selected 30 year old male lives through the year (based on data from the US department of Health and Human Services). A Fidelity life insurance company charges $161 for insuring that the male will live through the year. If the male does not survive the year, the policy pays out $100,000 as a death benefit. If a 30 year old male purchases the policy, what is his expected value?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Surviving the year: $ -161. Not surviving: 99,839.

b) 0.9986 * -161 + (1-0.9986) * 100000 = -20.7746

c) As the expected value is negative from the male's perspective, it is positive from the insurance company's perspective. So as the number of people purchasing this insurance becomes large, the company's profit will converge to an average value of 20.7746 per male. So the company is indeed profitting.

Question: Scott made a casserole for dinner he gave equal portions of 1/2 the casserole to 3 friends what diagram could scott use to find the fraction of the whole casserole that each friend got?

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the diagram Scott used to find the portion each friend got.

The shaded part indicate the portion of the casserole.

When Scott prepared the dinner = 1 portion of casserole

He shared 1/2 the portion to 3 of his friends:

Divide the diagram of the full portion into 2 to get ½ of the casserole

1/2 of the casserole = ½ × 1 portion = ½ portion

Each of his 3 friends would have equal portions = ⅓ of the ½ portion

The diagram of the ½ portion would be divided into 3 equal part

In terms of calculation = ½ × ⅓

= 1/6

Each of his friends would have 1/6 portion of the casserole.

Rocky Mountain National Park is a popular park for outdoor recreation activities in Colorado. According to U.S. National Park Service statistics, 46.7% of visitors to Rocky Mountain National Park in 2018 entered through the Beaver Meadows park entrance, 24.3% of visitors entered through the Fall River park entrance, 6.3% of visitors entered through the Grand Lake park entrance, and 22.7% of visitors had no recorded point of entry to the park.† Consider a random sample of 175 Rocky Mountain National Park visitors. Use the normal approximation of the binomial distribution to answer the following questions. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
(a) What is the probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance?
(b) What is the probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance?
(c) What is the probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance?(d) What is the probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.6628 = 66.28% probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance

b) 0.5141 = 51.41% probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance

c) 0.5596 = 55.96% probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance.

d) 0.9978 = 99.78% probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry

Step-by-step explanation:

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 = 175[/tex]

(a) What is the probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance?

46.7% of visitors to Rocky Mountain National Park in 2018 entered through the Beaver Meadows. This means that [tex]p = 0.467[/tex]. So

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 175*0.467 = 81.725[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{175*0.467*0.533} = 6.6[/tex]

This probability, using continuity correction, is [tex]P(X \geq 85 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 84.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 84.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{84.5 - 81.725}{6.6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.42[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.42[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.6628.

66.28% probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance.

(b) What is the probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance?

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(80 - 0.5 \leq X <  90 - 0.5) = P(79.5 \leq X \leq 89.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 89.5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 79.5. So

X = 89.5

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

[tex]Z = \frac{89.5 - 81.725}{6.6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.18[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.18[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8810.

X = 79.5

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

[tex]Z = \frac{79.5 - 81.725}{6.6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.34[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.34[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.3669.

0.8810 - 0.3669 = 0.5141

51.41% probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance

(c) What is the probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance?

6.3% of visitors entered through the Grand Lake park entrance, which means that [tex]p = 0.063[/tex]

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 175*0.063 = 11.025[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{175*0.063*0.937} = 3.2141[/tex]

This probability, using continuity correction, is [tex]P(X < 12 - 0.5) = P(X < 11.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 11.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{11.5 - 11.025}{3.2141}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.15[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.15[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5596.

55.96% probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance.

(d) What is the probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry?

22.7% of visitors had no recorded point of entry to the park. This means that [tex]p = 0.227[/tex]

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 175*0.227 = 39.725[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{175*0.227*0.773} = 5.54[/tex]

Using continuity correction, this probability is [tex]P(X \leq 55 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 55.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 55.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{55.5 - 39.725}{5.54}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.85[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.85[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9978

0.9978 = 99.78% probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry

The area of the rectangle is width times length.

A = wl

Substituting and solving:

108 = w (2w − 6)

108 = 2w² − 6w

54 = w² − 3w

0 = w² − 3w − 54

0 = (w + 6) (w − 9)

w = -6 or 9

Consider Statement A and Statement B below:
1. If neither of two real numbers is zero, then their product is also not zero.
2. If a and b are two real numbers, and if ab = 0, then either a = 0 or b= 0.
A. These two statements are equivalent because statement A is the converse of statement B.
B. These two statements are equivalent because statement A is the contrapositive of statement B.
C. These two statements are not equivalent.

Answers

Answer:

These two statements are equivalent because statement A is the contrapositive of statement B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In logic, when we have an "if" statement we can have its contrapositive or its converse.

Given a "if p, then q" (p is the hypothesis and q is the conclusion), the converse is "if q, then p", in other words, we interchange the hypothesis and the conclusion.

Now, given a "if p, then q", the contrapositive is "if not q, then not p". In other words, we take the negation of both the hypothesis and the conclusion and then we interchange them.

Now, let's take a look at our statements:

If a and b are two real numbers, and if ab = 0, then either a = 0 or b = 0.

In this case:

p = a and b are two real numbers and ab=0

q = either a = 0 or b = 0

Now, let's take the negative of p and q:

The negative of p would be: a and b are two real numbers and their product is not zero.

The negative of q would be: neither of the two real numbers is zero

Now, given than the contrapositive is "if not q, then not p" we would have:

If neither of two real numbers is zero, then their product is not zero.

We can see that this last sentence is the contrapositive of the first one and thus:

These two statements are equivalent because statement A is the contrapositive of statement B.

A company plans to manufacture a rectangular bin with a square base, an open top, and a volume of 13,500 in3. Determine the dimensions of the bin that will minimize the surface area. What is the minimum surface area

Answers

Answer:

Dimensions 30 in x 30 in x 15 in

Surface Area = 2,700 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'r' be the length of the side of the square base, and 'h' be the height of the bin. The volume is given by:

[tex]V=13,500=h*r^2\\h=\frac{13,500}{r^2}[/tex]

The total surface area is given by:

[tex]A=4*hr+r^2[/tex]

Rewriting the surface area function as a function of 'r':

[tex]A=4*\frac{13,500}{r^2} *r+r^2\\A=\frac{54,000}{r}+r^2[/tex]

The value of 'r' for which the derivate of the surface area function is zero, is the length for which the area is minimized:

[tex]A=54,000*r^{-1}+r^2\\\frac{dA}{dr}=0= -54,000*r^{-2}+2r\\\frac{54,000}{r^2}=2r\\ r=\sqrt[3]{27,000}\\r=30\ in[/tex]

The value of 'h' is:

[tex]h=\frac{13,500}{30^2}\\ h=15\ in[/tex]

The dimensions that will ensure the minimum surface area are 30 in x 30 in x 15 in.

The surface area is:

[tex]A=4*15*30+30^2\\A=2,700\ in^2[/tex]

Lockheed Martin, the defense contractor designs and build communication satellite systems to be used by the U.S. military. Because of the very high cost the company performs numerous test on every component. These test tend to extend the component assembly time. Suppose the time required to construct and test (called build time) a particular component is thought to be normally distributed, with a mean equal to 60 hours and a standard deviation equal to 9.4 hours. To keep the assembly flow moving on schedule, this component needs to have a build time between 52 and 70 hours. Find the probability that the build time will be such that assembly will stay on schedule.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(52<X<70)=P(\frac{52-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{70-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{52-60}{9.4}<Z<\frac{70-60}{9.4})=P(-0.851<z<1.064)[/tex]

And we can find this probability with this difference:

[tex]P(-0.851<z<1.064)=P(z<1.064)-P(z<-0.851)[/tex]

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

[tex]P(-0.851<z<1.064)=P(z<1.064)-P(z<-0.851)=0.856-0.197=0.659[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the time required to construct and test a particular component of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(60,9.4)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=60[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=9.4[/tex]

We want to find this probability:

[tex]P(52<X<70)[/tex]

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Using this formula we got:

[tex]P(52<X<70)=P(\frac{52-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{70-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{52-60}{9.4}<Z<\frac{70-60}{9.4})=P(-0.851<z<1.064)[/tex]

And we can find this probability with this difference:

[tex]P(-0.851<z<1.064)=P(z<1.064)-P(z<-0.851)[/tex]

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

[tex]P(-0.851<z<1.064)=P(z<1.064)-P(z<-0.851)=0.856-0.197=0.659[/tex]

What is the probability that Henry makes more than a $1.30 today

Answers

Answer:

99.27%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to:

sample size (n) = 100

p = 0.8

1 egg = 3 * 0.01 = 0.03

eggs = 100 - 30 broken eggs = 70

Let's find the probability of winning more than $ 1.30 today:

p (x> 1.30) = p (z, (x -m) / sd)

average earnings:

per day would be:

m1 = 100 / 1.5 * 0.8 * 0.03

m1 = 1.6

sd1 = (m1 * (1 - p)) ^ (1/2) = (1.6 * (1 - 0.8)) ^ (1/2)

sd1 = 0.566

earnings for broken eggs:

m2 = 70 * 0.8 * 0.03

m2 = 1.68

sd2 = (m2 * (1 - p)) ^ (1/2) = (1.68 * (1 - 0.8)) ^ (1/2)

sd2 = 0.58

Now the total profit would be:

m = m1 + m2 = 1.6 + 1.68

m = 3.28

sd = sd1 ^ 2 + sd2 ^ 2 = 0.566 ^ 2 + 0.58 ^ 2

sd = 0.81

now yes, replacing:

p (x> 1.30) = p (z> (1.3 - 3.28) /0.81)

p (x> 1.30) = p (z> -2.44)

for this z = 0.0073

Therefore the probability would be:

1 - 0.0073 = 0.9927

That is, we would have a 99.27% probability of achieving the goal.

Find the population density of domesticated dogs if there are 43,600,000 dogs in the United States and the area of the United States is 3,794,083 square miles. Round to the nearest 10th

Answers

Answer:

11.49 dogs/ square mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Population density of any place is number of living being living in that area per unit area.

Population density = number of living being/ area of the place

given

number of dogs= 43,600,000

area = 3,794,083 square miles

population density of domesticated dogs = 43,600,000 /3,794,083

                                                              = 11.4915 dogs/ square mile

Answer:

[tex]2p=348 cm\: S=6726 cm^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ciao, come stai?

1) Per prima cosa, dobbiamo trovare la misura della base più grande. Scomponendo la figura possiamo visualizzare un triangolo e un quadrato. Ci sono somiglianze con gli angoli. Quindi è un triangolo rettangolo. Applichiamo il teorema di Pitagora:

[tex]a^2=b^2+c^2\\95^2=b^2+76^2\\57=b[/tex]

2) Perimetro:

[tex]2p=60+57+76+60+95\\2p=348 cm[/tex]

3) L' area

[tex]\frac{(B+b)h}{2} =\frac{(117+60)76}{2} =6726 \:cm^{2}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that for a distribution be a probability density function sum of all the probability events should be equal to 1 and all individual events should have probability between 0 and 1

a. x P(X=x)

0 -----3/8

1 -----1/4

2 -----3/8

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2) = 3/8 + 1/4 + 3/8

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2) = 6/8 + 2/8 = 1

This is a probability density function

b. x P(X=x)

0 ----0.2

1 ----0.1

2 ----0.35

3 ----0.17

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 0.2 + 0.1 + 0.35 + 0.17

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 0.65 + 0.17 = 0.82 ≠ 1

Therefore this is NOT a probability density function

c. x P(X=x)

0---- 9/10

1 ---- −3/10

2 ---- 3/10

3 ---- 1/10

Since P(X=1) is not between 0 and 1

Therefore this is NOT a probability density function

d. x P(X=x)

0 ----0.06

1 ----0.01

2 ----0.07

3 ----0.86

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 0.06 + 0.01 + 0.07 + 0.86

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 0.14 + 0.86 = 1

Therefore this is a probability density function

e. x P(X=x)

0 ----1/2

1 ----1/8

2 ----1/4

3 ----1/8

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 1/2 + 1/8 + 1/4 + 1/8

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 1/2 + 1/2 = 1

Therefore this is a probability density function

f. x P(X=x)

0 ----1/10

1 ----1/10

2 ----3/10

3 ----1/5

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 1/10 + 1/10 + 3/10 + 1/5

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3) = 2/10 + 5/10 = 7/10 ≠ 1

Therefore this is NOT a probability density function

In a random sample of 25 laptop computers the mean repair cost was $150 with a standard deviation of $35. Compute the 99% confidence interval for u

Answers

Answer:

[tex]150-2.797\frac{35}{\sqrt{25}}=130.421[/tex]    

[tex]150+2.797\frac{35}{\sqrt{25}}=169.579[/tex]    

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X=150[/tex] represent the sample mean for the sample  

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean

s=35 represent the sample standard deviation

n=25 represent the sample size  

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value [tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

[tex]df=n-1=25-1=24[/tex]

Since the Confidence is 0.99 or 99%, the value of [tex]\alpha=0.01[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.005[/tex] and the critical value for this case [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=2.797[/tex]

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

[tex]150-2.797\frac{35}{\sqrt{25}}=130.421[/tex]    

[tex]150+2.797\frac{35}{\sqrt{25}}=169.579[/tex]
