Answer:
2.16% probability that he would have done at least this well if he had no ESP
Step-by-step explanation:
For each coin toss, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he predicts the correct outcome, or he does not. The tosses are independent. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
Fair coin:
Equally as likely to be heads or tails, so [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]
Coin is flipped 25 times
So [tex]n = 25[/tex]
What is the probability that he would have done at least this well if he had no ESP?
[tex]P(X \geq 18) = P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) + P(X = 21) + P(X = 22) + P(X = 23) + P(X = 24) + P(X = 25)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 18) = C_{25,18}.(0.5)^{18}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.0143[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 19) = C_{25,19}.(0.5)^{19}.(0.5)^{6} = 0.0053[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 20) = C_{25,20}.(0.5)^{20}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.0016[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 21) = C_{25,21}.(0.5)^{21}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.0004[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 22) = C_{25,22}.(0.5)^{22}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.0001[/tex]
The others(23, 24 and 25) are close to 0.
[tex]P(X \geq 18) = P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) + P(X = 21) + P(X = 22) + P(X = 23) + P(X = 24) + P(X = 25) = 0.0143 + 0.0053 + 0.0016 + 0.0004 = 0.0216[/tex]
2.16% probability that he would have done at least this well if he had no ESP
You are playing a game called cornhole and let’s assume that you are reallygood at it with the winning probability is 0.8. For the following parts, find (a) the name ofthe appropriate probability distribution and correct parameters, (b) the expected value and (c) the variance of Y.
A. Y = the number of games it takes you to lose one time.
B. Y = the number of games it takes you to lose four times.
C. Y the number of times you win out of 100 games.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The probability of winning is 0.8
i.e P(winning) = 0.8
Then P(losing) = 0.2
a) Y ~ Geometric distribution
[tex]P = P(loose) =0.2 \\ \\ \mu_{\delta} = \dfrac{1}{P}= \dfrac{1}{0.2}\\ \\ = 5.0 \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{\sigma ^2 }{\delta } = \dfrac{1-P}{P^2} \\ \\ =\dfrac{0.8}{0.04} \\ \\ = 20[/tex]
b) Y ~ Negative Binomial Distribution
[tex]P = P (loose) =0.2 \\ \\ \delta = number \ of \ loss = 4 \\ \\ \mu_{\delta} = \dfrac{\delta}{P} \\ \\ =\dfrac{4}{0.2} \\ \\ = 20 \\ \\ \\ \sigma ^2_{\delta} = \dfrac{\delta (1-P)}{P^2} \\ \\ = \dfrac{4*0.8}{0.04}\\ \\ = 80[/tex]
c) Y ~ Binomial Distribution;
n = 100 ; P = 0.8
[tex]\mu_{\delta} = nP \\ \\ = 100*0.8 \\ \\ = 80 \\ \\ \\ \sigma_{\delta}^2 = nP(1-P) \\ \\ =80*0.2 \\ \\ = 16[/tex]

What is a perfect cube and how can you check if a given number is a perfect cube? Explain why.
Answer:
Read below.
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect cube is a number cubed (If that makes sense). Such as 3³ will equal a perfect cube because it's being multiplied by itself 3 times. 3×3×3=9. It will work for any whole number. You can check if a given number is a perfect cube by using the cube root ([tex]\sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]).
Hope it makes sense!
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect cube is a cube whose cube root can be easily gotten by using methods such as factor method eg 125 is a perfect cube whose cube root is 5. You can know if a number is a perfect cube 1.) if it gives you a perfect cube root
How do you solve this problem? population proportion is to be estimated from a sample of 400 with a sample proportion of 0.1. Approximate the 95% confidence interval of the population proportion
Answer:
(0.0706, 0.1294)
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval of a proportion is:
CI = p ± CV × SE
where p is the proportion,
CV is the critical value (z score or t score),
and SE is the standard error.
The sample is large enough to estimate as normal. For 95% confidence level, CV = z = 1.96.
Standard error for a proportion is:
SE = √(pq/n)
SE = √(0.1 × 0.9 / 400)
SE = 0.015
The confidence interval is:
CI = 0.1 ± (1.96)(0.015)
CI = (0.0706, 0.1294)

Autism is a serious and lifelong disability that is characterized by a severely decreased ability to engage in communication and social interaction. In 1998 citizens in a New Jersey town were concerned about the number of children diagnosed with autism, and a study was undertaken to establish the prevalence in the community. Data from the study are reported below:
Numbers of Children Diagnosed with Autistic Disorder
Age Category (y) Diagnosed with Autistic Disorder Number of Children in Population
3-5 19 3479
6-10 17 5417
Required:
a. Calculate the prevalence rate of autism for these children for the two age categories.
b. Convert the prevalence rate to a rate per 1,000
Answer:
a. Calculate the prevalence rate of autism for these children for the two age categories.
3-5: prevalence rate = 0.55%6-10: prevalence rate = 0.31%b. Convert the prevalence rate to a rate per 1,000
3-5: prevalence rate = 5.5 per thousand6-10: prevalence rate = 3.1 pér thousandStep-by-step explanation:
Generally prevalence is calculated using the following formula:
(number of people with autism / number of people measured) x 100%
age category
3-5: prevalence rate = (19/3,479) x 100% = 0.55%
6-10: prevalence rate = (17/5,417) x 100% = 0.31%
if you want to convert to a rate per 1,000, allyou need to do is multiply by 1,000 instead of 100
3-5: prevalence rate = (19/3,479) x 1,000 = 5.5
6-10: prevalence rate = (17/5,417) x 1,000 = 3.1
Many traffic experts argue that the most important factor in accidents is not the average speed of cars but the amount of variation. Suppose that the speeds of a sample of 200 cars were taken over a stretch of highway that has seen numerous accidents. Compute the standard deviation of the speeds in Excel file Q-14.xlsx.
Answer and Step-by-step explanation: Standard Deviation is the measure of how diferent a number is from the mean of the data set. It is the spread of a data set. To calculate it manually:
1) Find the mean of the data set. Mean, represented by μ, is the sum of all the values divided by the total number of elements forming the set;
2) Subtract each number with the Mean and square the result;
3) Add the differences and divide it by the total number of elements of the set;
4) Take the square root of the result and that is the Standard Deviation.
The calculations can be done by a calculator like Excel:
1) In each cell of a same column, write the data you want to know the deviation.
2) On the last cell, write: =stdev.p(A1:A10) or =stdev.s(A1:A10).
3) Press Enter. The deviation will appeared on the same cell.
The function STDEV.P is used when the data represents the entire population, whereas STDEV.S is used when the data is for a sample of the population. Inside the parenthesis, put the cells where your data is. For example, if you put your data in the column A, from cell 1 to cell 10, you write like it's written above.
A game is played using one die. If the die is rolled and shows 1, the player wins $5. If the die shows any number other than 1, the player wins nothing. If there is a $1 charge to play the game, what is the game’s expected value?
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
i had a similar question
For each roll you start with paying 2 dollars and you only with 10 dollars one out of 6 rolls (on average).
So the cost for one play is 2 dollars and your win is 10/6.
Value is -2+10/6=-1/3 dollars
So you lose 1/3 dollars on average with each game
since you have no limited rolls u put 1/5

Explain why the terms of the polynomial y2 + 7 are said to be realitvley prime
Answer:
The terms of the polynomial are relatively prime because the highest integer that divides them both is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are said to be relatively prime if their greatest common factor ( GCF ) is 1 .
Now, the expression we are given in the question is a polynomial;
y² + 7.
The terms of the polynomial y² + 7 are y² and 7 and have no common factor and in fact cannot be factorized further. Thus, these terms are said to be relatively prime because the highest integer that divides them both is 1.
Robin read somewhere that adding salt to water while heating it will raise the temperature of
the water causing it to boil faster. To test this claim, she filled 30 identical pots with one quart
of water. She randomly selected 15 of the pots and added 1 teaspoon of salt. She then placed
each pot on identical burners set to the highest setting. She measured the water temperature
In each pot after 5 minutes.
Is Robin's research method an example of an observational study experiment, or
simulation?
b
If Robin does find that there is a difference between the water temperatures in the pots
with salt compared to those without can she conclude that the salt caused the
difference in temperature?
Answer:
a. An experiment
b. No
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Robin's research method can be concluded to be an experiment because she has a testable group (pots of water with salt) and a control group (pots of water without salt).
2. Based on this alone, she cannot conclude that the salt caused the
difference in temperature because she has not set some appropriate conditions which are to be met for this test.

The function f(x) = −x2 + 16x − 60 models the daily profit, in dollars, a shop makes for selling candles, where x is the number of candles sold. Determine the vertex, and explain what it means in the context of the problem. (6, 10); The vertex represents the maximum profit. (6, 10); The vertex represents the minimum profit. (8, 4); The vertex represents the minimum profit. (8, 4); The vertex represents the maximum profit.
Answer:
A.
f is a quadratic function, which means it's graph is a parabola.
Notice that the coefficient of is negative, so the parabola opens downwards.
the x-coordinate of a parabola is always determined by the formula:
where a is coefficient of the term, and b is the coefficient of the x term.
Thus, x-coordinate of the vertex of the graph of f is :
the y-coordinate of the vertex is f(8)=-8*8+16*8-60=4.
The vertex is (8, 4).
This means that the maximum daily profit is when exactly 8 candles are sold.
B.
The x-intercepts are the values of x such that f(x)=0,
so to find these values we solve:
complete the square:
so x-8=2 or x-8=-2
the roots are x=10 and x=6, are the roots.
This means that when the shop sells exactly 6 or 10 candles, it makes no profit.
Answer: d (8, 4); The vertex represents the maximum profit.

Find the equation for the plane through the points Upper P0 (-2 ,2 ,-5),Q0 (1,2,-1), and Upper R0 (-1,-5,4 ).
The equation of plane is:________
Answer:
28x - 23y - 21z = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find two vectors in the plane as:
vector PQ = Q - P = (1, 2, -1) - (-2, 2, -5) = (3, 0, 4)
vector PR = R - P = (-1, -5, 4) - (-2 ,2 ,-5) = (1, -7, 9)
Then, we need to find a normal vector to the plane as:
PQ x RQ = ((0*9)-(4*-7), -(3*(9)-(4*1), (3*-7)-(0*1))
PQ x RQ = (28, -23, -21)
Finally, the equation of a plane is:
A(x-x0) + B(y-y0) + C(z-z0) = 0
Where (A,B,C) is a normal vector to the plane and (x0, y0, z0) is a point in the plane. So, replacing (A,B,C) by (28, -23, -21) and (x0, y0, z0) by P0(-2,2,-5), we can write the equation of the plane as:
28(x+2) - 23(y-2) - 21(z+5) = 0
Solving, we get:
28x + 56 - 23y + 46 - 21z - 105 = 0
28x - 23y - 21z - 3 = 0
28x - 23y - 21z = 3

What is the GCF of the terms in the numerator and denominator? Rewrite the expression by factoring out any common
factors.
Answer:
Answer is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
let us solve the numerator first
=4x²-14x+6
=2(2x²)+2(-7x)+2(3)
= GCF of the terms of the numerator is 2.
denominator
x³-7x²+12x
x(x²)+x(-7x)+x(12)
GCF of the terms of the denominator is x.
factorise the numerator
4x²-14x+6
4x²-2x-12x + 6 (by splitting the middle term; the numbers should produce the product 4*6 and when the no.s are added they should give -14)
(4x²-2x) + (-12x+6)
2x(2x-1) -6(2x-1)
(2x-6)(2x-1)
factors are
(2x-6), (2x-1)
denominator
this can also be done by splitting the middle term
x³-7x²+12x
x³-3x²-4x²+12x
(x³-3x²) + (-4x²+12x)
x²(x-3) -4x(x-3)
(x²-4x)(x-3)
factors are
(x²-4x), (x-3)
Consider the scatterplot above. Write a sentence explaining the meaning of the value of the slope for this linear model. The is an average of per year .
Answer:
Slope: The percent that voted falls by 0.1271 units per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a regression line represent the average rate of change in the dependent variable (y) based upon the changes in the independent variable (x).
In this case the regression equation provided is:
y = -0.1271 x + 307.53
The slope of the line is -0.1271.
The dependent variable is the percent that voted and the independent variable is the year.
The slope of -0.1271 indicates that every year, on average, the percent that voted decreases by 0.1271 units.
Or the percent that voted falls by 0.1271 units per year.

To examine the effect of high-dose green tea extract on weight loss, researchers conducted a randomized, double-blind trial on a random sample of 115 women with obesity from Taiwan. Some of these women were randomly assigned to the main treatment group taking a high-dose green tea extract ("EGCG") daily for 12 weeks. The published abstract of this 2015 study reports that, "Significant weight loss, from 76.8 ± 11.3 kg to 75.7 ± 11.5 kg (p = 0.025), was observed in the treatment group after 12 weeks of high-dose EGCG treatment."
Which of the following inference procedures would be used to reach the quoted conclusion?
a. Z procedure for a proportion
b. Chi-square for two-way tables
c. Chi-square for goodness of fit
d. Two sample t procedure for two means
e. One sample or matched-pairs t procedure for a mean
f. ANOVA for several means
Answer:
d. Two sample t procedure for two means.
Step-by-step explanation:
The study have a treatment group, which is the group of women that are taking the high dose of green tea extract, and a control group, in order to compare. They are assigned randomly to each group.
Then, the difference fo the two sample means is calculated and a t-test is performed in order to conclude if the two populations means are significantly different.
Apparently they are significantly different, as this is the conclusion with a P-value of 0.025.

The height of a stream of water from the nozzle of a fire hose is modeled by h(x) =-0.03x2+ 2x + 38 where h(x) is the height in feet, of the stream of water x feet from the fire truck. 1. What is the maximum height the water from this nozzle can reach? What is the maximum distance from the firetruck a firefighter can stand and still reach the fire?
Answer:
height: 71.33 feetreach: 82.10 feetStep-by-step explanation:
The equation can be rewritten to vertex form:
h(x) = -0.03(x² - 200/3x) +38
h(x) = -0.03(x² -200/3x +(100/3)²) +38 +.03(100/3)²
h(x) = -0.03(x -33 1/3)² +71 1/3
The vertex is (33 1/3, 71 1/3), so the maximum height the water will reach is 71 1/3 feet.
__
When h(x) = 0, the water reaches as far as it possibly can.
0 = -0.03(x -33 1/3)² +71 1/3
(-71 1/3)/(-0.03) = (x -33 1/3)² . . . subtract 71 1/3; divide by -0.03
√(2377.78) = x -33.33 . . . . . . . . positive square root
82.10 ≈ x
The maximum distance the water will reach is 82.10 feet.

A student is getting ready to take an important oral examination and is concerned about the possibility of having an "on" day or an "off" day. He figures that if he has an on day, then each of his examiners will pass him, independently of one another, with probability 0.8, whereas if he has an off day, this probability will be reduced to 0.4. Suppose that the student will pass the examination if a majority of the examiners pass him. If the student believes that he is twice as likely to have an off day as he is to have an on day, should he request an examination with 3 examiners or with 5 examiners?
Answer:
The students should request an examination with 5 examiners.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X denote the event that the student has an “on” day, and let Y denote the
denote the event that he passes the examination. Then,
[tex]P(Y)=P(Y|X)P(X)+P(Y|X^{c})P(X^{c})[/tex]
The events ([tex]Y|X[/tex]) follows a Binomial distribution with probability of success 0.80 and the events ([tex]Y|X^{c}[/tex]) follows a Binomial distribution with probability of success 0.40.
It is provided that the student believes that he is twice as likely to have an off day as he is to have an on day. Then,
[tex]P(X)=2\cdot P(X^{c})[/tex]
Then,
[tex]P(X)+P(X^{c})=1[/tex]
⇒
[tex]2P(X^{c})+P(X^{c})=1\\\\3P(X^{c})=1\\\\P(X^{c})=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Then,
[tex]P(X)=1-P(X^{c})\\=1-\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Compute the probability that the students passes if request an examination with 3 examiners as follows:
[tex]P(Y)=P(Y|X)P(X)+P(Y|X^{c})P(X^{c})[/tex]
[tex]=[\sum\limits^{3}_{x=2}{{3\choose x}(0.80)^{x}(1-0.80)^{3-x}}]\times\frac{2}{3}+[\sum\limits^{3}_{x=2}{{3\choose x}(0.40)^{3}(1-0.40)^{3-x}}]\times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]=0.715[/tex]
The probability that the students passes if request an examination with 3 examiners is 0.715.
Compute the probability that the students passes if request an examination with 5 examiners as follows:
[tex]P(Y)=P(Y|X)P(X)+P(Y|X^{c})P(X^{c})[/tex]
[tex]=[\sum\limits^{5}_{x=3}{{5\choose x}(0.80)^{x}(1-0.80)^{5-x}}]\times\frac{2}{3}+[\sum\limits^{5}_{x=3}{{5\choose x}(0.40)^{x}(1-0.40)^{5-x}}]\times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]=0.734[/tex]
The probability that the students passes if request an examination with 5 examiners is 0.734.
As the probability of passing is more in case of 5 examiners, the students should request an examination with 5 examiners.

Answer:
1) 23/2
2) 529/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformation:
[tex]4\frac{1}{2} = \frac{(2*4) + 1}{2} = \frac{9}{2}[/tex]
[tex]2\frac{5}{9} = \frac{(9*2) + 5}{9} = \frac{23}{9}[/tex]
A = [tex]\frac{9}{2} * \frac{23}{9} = \frac{23}{2}[/tex]
-----------------------------
Transformation:
