6. If a person adopts a pet, it's either a cat or a dog. 25% of the time, it's a cat and 75% of the time, it's a dog. If you meet someone at the shelter that adopted three pets, what's the probability that they got either: three cats or three dogs? Show your calculation and give your single answer as a decimal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0156 probability that they got three cats.

0.4219 probability that they got three dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person there are only two possible outcomes. Either they adopted a dog, or a cat. The probability of a person adopting a cat or a dog is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used 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.

Three people:

This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

What's the probability that they got three cats?

25% of the time it's a cat adopted, which means that [tex]p = 0.25[/tex]

This is P(X = 3). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.25)^{3}.(0.75)^{0} = 0.0156[/tex]

0.0156 probability that they got three cats.

What's the probability that they got three dogs?

75% of the time it's a dog adopted, which means that [tex]p = 0.75[/tex]

This is P(X = 3). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.75)^{3}.(0.25)^{0} = 0.4219[/tex]

0.4219 probability that they got three dogs.

Find the volume of the solid

Answers

Answer:

245 yd3

Step-by-step explanation:

Split the solid into two pieces, multiply length, width, adn height from there.

Answer:

The answer is: 245 yds cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, you would cut the solid into 2 parts. One that is a big rectangular prism and the other is the smaller one. Next, we would solve the volume of the smaller rectangular prism. The measurements for that is:

Height: 2   Length: 5    Width: 2. There is a side of that small prism that is 2x2 so we will solve that first. 2*2=4. 4*5=20. The volume of the smaller rectangular prism is 20 yd^3.

Next, we solve the volume for the 2nd rectangular prism. The measurements for that are: Height: 5    Length: 9    Width: 5.

So we would first solve for one of the sides. 5*5=25. Then we would multiply it by 9. 25*9= 225. So the volume for the bigger rectangular prism is 225 yds^3.

Lastly, we will add the volumes of the two prisms together. 225+20=245.

The final answer is: 245 yds cubed

A random sample of 102 full-grown lobsters had a mean weight of 16 ounces and a standard deviation of 3.4 ounces. Construct a 98 percent confidence interval for the population mean μ. The best point estimate for a confidence interval estimating the population μ is____ounces.

Answers

Answer:

The best point estimate for a confidence interval estimating the population μ is 16 ounces.

The 98 percent confidence interval for the population mean μ is between 15.21 ounces and 16.79 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The best point estimate for a confidence interval estimating the population μ is

The sample mean, so 16 ounces.

T interval

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 102 - 1 = 101

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 101 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.36

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.36\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{102}} = 0.79[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 16 - 0.79 = 15.21 ounces

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 16 + 0.79 = 16.79 ounces

The 98 percent confidence interval for the population mean μ is between 15.21 ounces and 16.79 ounces.

-8x + y = -16
-3x + y = -5​

Answers

Answer:

x= 11/3

y= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x+y=-16

-3x+y = - 5

Multiply the second equation by -1, we get,

-8x + y = -16

3x -y = 5

--------------------

-3x = -11

x= 11/3

x=11/3. so,

-3×11/3 +y = -5

-11+y=-5

y= -5+11

y=6

What number can you multiply ONE equation by in the following system to obtain a matching
coefficient? (Elimination)
4x+3y=8
2x+5y=12
(Worth 10 points )

Answers

Answer:

Multiply the second equation by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]4x + 3y = 8[/tex]

[tex]2x + 5y =12[/tex]

Required

Get matching coefficient for elimination

[tex]4x + 3y = 8[/tex]

[tex]2x + 5y =12[/tex]

The coefficient of x in both expressions are factors.

So, we can multiply the second equation by 2 to get the coefficient of x in the first.

i.e.

[tex]2 * (2x + 5y = 12)[/tex]

[tex]4x + 10y = 24[/tex]

So, the system becomes:

[tex]4x + 3y = 8[/tex]

[tex]4x + 10y = 24[/tex]

Now, x can be eliminated
