Answer:
a) three eigenvalues, all of them real.
d) one real eigenvalue and two complex eigenvalues.
Step-by-step explanation:
A 3x3 matrix with real entries can have : (a) three eigenvalues, all of them are real and (d) one real eigenvalue and two complex eigenvalues.
Let consider the equation for a 3x3 matrix with real entries :
[tex]\lambda^3+a\lambda^2+b \lambda +c = 0[/tex]
From above ; we will notice that the polynomial is of 3°; as such there will be three eigenvalues in which all of them real.
Also ; complex values shows in pairs, a 3x3 matrix cannot have a three complex eigenvalues but one real eigenvalue and two complex eigenvalues.

A bag contains 6 red balls and 9 black balls. Two balls are drawn, one after the other with replacement. Find the probability that
a. Both are of the same colours
b. Both are of different colours
Answer:
a) 13/25
b) 12/15
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Since it is with replacement, the chance of them being both the same colour will be
P(both red) + P(both black) = (6/15*6/15) + (9/15*9/15)
= 13/25
b) If they are both different colours, then we will be working out
P(both colours) = (6/15*9/15)*2 = 12/25 (Its *2 because the other way of pulling both colours is 9/15*6/15 which is the same but flipped)
Another way of working this question out is
P(1-All red or all blue) which from above we know that All red or all blue is 13/25 so
P(1-All red or all blue) = 1 - 13/25 = 12/25

Teaching descriptive statistics. A study compared five different methods for teaching descriptive statistics. The five methods were traditional lecture and discussion, programmed textbook instruction, programmed text with lectures, computer instruction, and computer instruction with lectures. 45 students were randomly assigned, 9 to each method. After completing the course, students took a 1-hour exam.
a. What are the hypotheses for evaluating if the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods?
b. What are the degrees of freedom associated with the F-test for evaluating these hypotheses?
c. Suppose the p-value for this test is 0.0168. What is the conclusion?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The hypotheses are:
Null hypothesis: the average test scores are the same for the different teaching methods.
Alternative hypothesis: the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods.
b. To determine the degree of freedom for the F test: we must find two sources of variation such that we have two variances. The two sources of variation are: Factor (between groups) and the error (within groups) and add this up. Or use (N - 1). N is number in sample
c. With a p value of of 0.0168 and using a standard significance level of 0.05, we will reject the null hypothesis as 0.0168 is less than 0.05 and conclude that the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods.

Benny is trying to learn how to ride a bike, but is terrified of falling. He did some research, and discovered that if he rides a bike with training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.1; if he learns to ride a bike by using a bike without training wheels, his probability of falling is 0.5, and if he uses a unicycle, his probability of falling is 0.8. Benny came home crying with a bruise on his knee, after falling. His mom is trying to guess how Benny was trying to learn to ride a bike.
a) Assuming that the probability that Benny was using each of these 3 methods is equal, what is the probability that Benny was learning to ride a bike using the training wheels?
b) Since Benny's mom knows Benny so well, she knows that the probability that he was using training wheels is 0.7, regular bike is 0.2, and unicycle is 0.1. What is the probability now that Benny fell while using the training wheels?
Answer:
a) 7.14% probability that Benny was learning to ride a bike using the training wheels
b) 28% probability that Benny was learning to ride a bike using the training wheels
Step-by-step explanation:
Bayes Theorem:
Two events, A and B.
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.
Benny came home crying with a bruise on his knee, after falling. His mom is trying to guess how Benny was trying to learn to ride a bike.
a) Assuming that the probability that Benny was using each of these 3 methods is equal, what is the probability that Benny was learning to ride a bike using the training wheels?
So
Event A: Benny fell
Event B: Benny was using training wheels.
The probability that Benny was using each of these 3 methods is equal
This means that [tex]P(B) = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
He did some research, and discovered that if he rides a bike with training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.1;
This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.1[/tex]
Probability of falling:
1/3 of the time, he uses training wheels. With training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.1.
1/3 of the time, he uses the bike without training wheels. Without training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.5
1/3 of the time, he uses the unicycle, for which he has an 0.8 probability of falling. Then
[tex]P(A) = \frac{0.1 + 0.5 + 0.8}{3} = 0.4667[/tex]
So
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{\frac{1}{3}*0.1}{0.4667} = 0.0714[/tex]
7.14% probability that Benny was learning to ride a bike using the training wheels
b) Since Benny's mom knows Benny so well, she knows that the probability that he was using training wheels is 0.7, regular bike is 0.2, and unicycle is 0.1. What is the probability now that Benny fell while using the training wheels?
Similar as above, just some probabilities change.
Event A: Benny fell
Event B: Benny was using training wheels.
The probability that he was using training wheels is 0.7
This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.7[/tex]
He did some research, and discovered that if he rides a bike with training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.1;
This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.1[/tex]
Probability of falling:
0.7 of the time, he uses training wheels. With training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.1.
0.2 of the time, he uses the bike without training wheels. Without training wheels, the probability of falling is 0.5
0.1 of the time, he uses the unicycle, for which he has an 0.8 probability of falling. Then
[tex]P(A) = 0.7*0.1 + 0.2*0.5 + 0.1*0.8 = 0.25[/tex]
So
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.7*0.1}{0.25} = 0.28[/tex]
28% probability that Benny was learning to ride a bike using the training wheels

Answer:
Yes, because if Pedro asked them the question "what do you think of public transportation?" the majority would probably say that they like it or something along those lines. This is biased because there may be other city inhabitants who don't think very highly of public transportation. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that not everyone will have the same opinion.
Assume the random variable X has a binomial distribution with the given probability of obtaining a success. Find the following probability, given the number of trials and the probability of obtaining a success. Round your answer to four decimal places. P(X≤2), n=5, p=0.8
Answer:
0.0579
Step-by-step explanation:
P(X≤2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)
P(X≤2) = ₅C₀ (0.8)⁰ (0.2)⁵ + ₅C₁ (0.8)¹ (0.2)⁴ + ₅C₂ (0.8)² (0.2)³
P(X≤2) = 0.00032 + 0.0064 + 0.0512
P(X≤2) = 0.0579
Probability of obtaining a success is 0.0579 .
Here,
Binomial distribution formula:
P(x:n,p) = nCx px (1-p)n-x Or P(x:n,p) = nCx px (q)n-x
Substituting the values of n and p
n = 5
p = 0.8
So,
P(X≤2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)
P(X≤2) = ₅C₀ (0.8)⁰ (0.2)⁵ + ₅C₁ (0.8)¹ (0.2)⁴ + ₅C₂ (0.8)² (0.2)³
P(X≤2) = 0.00032 + 0.0064 + 0.0512
P(X≤2) = 0.0579

In Denver, Colorado, they experience a lot of snow in the winter. During the last
snow storm, it snowed for 3 straight days and the snow consistently accumulated at
a rate of inch per hour. How much snow did Denver get over three days?
Your answer
Answer:
Denver got 72 inches of snow over three days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it has snowed consistently for 3 days, accumulating an inch of snow per hour, over that number of days at least 72 inches of snow would have accumulated.
This is so because, since each day has 24 hours, in the event of a 3-day snowfall, it would have lasted 72 hours. Thus, while every hour a new inch of snow would accumulate, at the end of the storm the city of Denver would have accumulated 72 inches of snow (1 x 24 x 3 = 72).

B. E(X) = 4.12; σ = 2.21
C. μ = 12.75; s = 6.11
Step-by-step explanation: Probability Distribution is an equation or table linking each outcome of an experiment with its probability of ocurrence. For this case, since the experiment is performed a high number of times and in a long run, the relative frequency of the event is its probability. Therefore:
A. To convert to a probability distribution, find the probability through the frequency by doing:
Hour 1
P(X) = [tex]\frac{21}{228}[/tex] = 0.09
Hour 2
P(X) = [tex]\frac{36}{228}[/tex] = 0.16
Hour 3
P(X) = [tex]\frac{53}{228}[/tex] = 0.23
Hour 4
P(X) = [tex]\frac{40}{228}[/tex] = 0.17
Hour 5
P(X) = [tex]\frac{22}{228}[/tex] = 0.09
Hour 6
P(X) = [tex]\frac{11}{228}[/tex] = 0.05
Hour 7
P(X) = [tex]\frac{9}{228}[/tex] = 0.04
Hour 8
P(X) = [tex]\frac{36}{228}[/tex] = 0.16
The table will be:
hours probability
1 0.09
2 0.16
3 0.23
4 0.17
5 0.09
6 0.05
7 0.04
8 0.16
This is a discrete distribution because it lists all the possible values that the discrete variable can be and its associated probabilities.
B. Mean for a probability distribution is calculated as:
E(X) = ∑[[tex]x_{i}[/tex].P([tex]x_{i}[/tex])]
E(X) = 1*0.09 + 2*0.16+3*0.23+4*0.17+5*0.09+6*0.05+7*0.04+8*0.16
E(X) = 4.12
Standard Deviation is:
σ = √∑{[x - E(x)]² . P(x)}
σ = [tex]\sqrt{(1-4.12)^{2}*0.09 + (2-4.12)^{2}*0.16 + ... + (7-4.12)^{2}*0.04 + (8-4.12)^{2}*0.16}[/tex]
σ = [tex]\sqrt{4.87}[/tex]
σ = 2.21
The average number of hours parked is approximately 4h with a standard deviation of approximately 2 hours, which means that a typical costumer parks between 2 to 6 hours.
C. Mean for a sample is given by: μ = ∑[tex]\frac{x_{i}}{n}[/tex] , which is this case is:
μ = [tex]\frac{4+6+9+13+14+16+18+22}{8}[/tex]
μ = 12.75
Standard Deviation of a sample: s = √[tex]\frac{1}{n-1}[/tex]∑([tex]x_{i}[/tex] - μ)²
s = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{(4-12.75)^{2} + (6-12.74)^{2} + ... + (18-12.75)^{2} + (22-12.75)^{2} }{8-1}}[/tex]
s = 6.11
The average amount charged is 12.75±6.11.

Microsoft excel was used on a set of data involving the number of defective items found in a random sample of 46 cases of light bulbs produced during a morning shift at a plant. A manager wants to know if the mean number of defective bulbs per case is greater than 20 during the morning shift. She will make her decision using a test with a level of significance of 0.10. The following information was extracted from the microsoft excel output for the sample of 46 cases:
n=46, Arithmetic mean=28.00, Std Dev =25.92, standard error=3.82, Null hypothesis: H0 : u<=20, alpha =0.10, df=45, t-test statistic=2.09, one tail test upper critical value =1.3006, p-value=0.021
i) what parameter is the manager interested in?
ii) state the alternative hypothesis for this study.
iii) what critical value should the manager use to determine the rejection region.
iv) explain if the, null hypothesis should be rejected and why or why not?
v) explain our risk of committing of a type1 error.
vi) explain if the data evidence proves beyond a doubt that the mean number of defective bulbs per case is greater than 20 during the morning shift
vii) what can the manager conclude about the mean number of defective bulbs per case during the morning shift using a level of significance of 0.10?
viii) what would the p-value be if these data were used to perform a two tail test?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
i. The parameter the manager is interested in is number of defective bulbs in a case.
ii. Null hypothesis: u <= 20
Alternative hypothesis: u > 20
iii. The critical value the manager should use to determine the rejection region is 1.645.
iv. Using the p value which is 0.021 at 0.10 significance level we will reject the null as the p value is less than 0.1. Thus, we will conclude that there is enough statistical evidence to prove that the mean number of defective bulbs per case is greater than 20.
v. Our risk of committing type one error is alpha which is the level of significance set for the hypothesis test. An alpha level of 0.1 shows that we are willing to accept a 10% chance that we are wrong when you reject the null hypothesis.
vi. With a low p value, the data has enough evidence to prove that the mean number of defective bulbs per case is greater than 20 during the morning shift
vii. The manager will conclude that there is sufficient statistical evidence to prove that mean number of defective bulbs per case is greater than 20 during the morning shift.
viii. the p value if this is a two tail test would be 0.03662
4. Rational, irrational (4 points) (1) (2 points) Prove or disprove that if x y is an irrational number, then x or y is also an irrational number. (2) (2 points) Prove that if x 2 is irrational, then x is irrational. (Hint: try a proof by contrapositive)
Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Prove or disprove that if [tex] x^y[/tex] is an irrational number, then x or y is also an irrational number.
Let's take the following instances:
i) When x= 2 and y=[tex] \sqrt{2} [/tex] we have: [tex] 2^\sqrt^{^2^} [/tex]
ii) When [tex] x=2\sqrt{2} [/tex] and y=3, we have: [tex] (x=2\sqrt{2})^3 [/tex]
iii) When [tex] x=2\sqrt{2} [/tex] and [tex] y = \sqrt{2}[/tex], we have: [tex] (2\sqrt{2})^\sqrt^{^2^}[/tex]
It is proven because, in scenario
i) x is rational and y is irrational
ii) x is irrational and y is rational
iii) x and y are irrational
2) Prove tha x² is irrational, then x is irrational.
Use contradiction here.
Thus, x² is irrational and x is rational.
[tex] x =\frac{b}{a} [/tex] when x is rational, a & b are integers.
Therefore, [tex] x^2 =\frac{b^2}{a^2} [/tex]. This x² is rational.
This contradicts the statement that x² is irrational.
Therefore, if x² is irrational, x is also irrational.

Determine whether the following statement is true or false.
To construct a confidence interval about the mean, the population from which the sample is drawn must be approximately normal.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In constructing a confidence interval about the mean, the central limit theorem is usually applied. This makes it possible to use the normal distribution. As the number of samples is increasing, the distribution tends to be normal. This would require using the z distribution. In the case where the sample size is small, we assume a normal distribution and use the t distribution. Therefore, the given statement is true.

The probability a person has read a book in the past year is 0.81. The probability a person is considered a millennial is 0.28. The probability a person has read a book in the past year and is considered a millennial is 0.25
(a) Find P(Millennial | Read a Book).
(b) Find P(Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book).
(c) Are being considered a millennial and having read a book in the past year independent events? Justify your answer mathematically.
Answer:
(a) P(Millennial | Read a Book) = 0.3086
(b) P( Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book) = 0.8421
(c)
P(Millennial and Read a Book) = P(Read a Book) × P(Millennial)
0.25 = 0.81 × 0.28
0.25 ≠ 0.2268
Since the relation doesn't hold true, therefore, being considered a millennial and having read a book in the past year are not independent events.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability a person has read a book in the past year is 0.81.
P(Read a Book) = 0.81
The probability a person is considered a millennial is 0.28.
P(Millennial) = 0.28
The probability a person has read a book in the past year and is considered a millennial is 0.25.
P(Millennial and Read a Book) = 0.25
(a) Find P(Millennial | Read a Book)
Recall that Multiplicative law of probability is given by
P(A ∩ B) = P(B | A) × P(A)
P(B | A) = P(A ∩ B) / P(A)
For the given case,
P(Millennial | Read a Book) = P(Millennial and Read a Book) / P(Read a Book)
P(Millennial | Read a Book) = 0.25 / 0.81
P(Millennial | Read a Book) = 0.3086
(b) Find P(Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book)
P( Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book) = P(Not Millennial and Did Not Read a Book) / P(Did Not Read a Book)
Where
∵ P(A' and B') = 1 - P(A or B)
P(Not Millennial and Did Not Read a Book) = 1 - P(Millennial or Read a Book)
∵ P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
P(Millennial or Read a Book) = P(Read a Book) + P(Millennial) - P(Millennial and Read a Book)
P(Millennial or Read a Book) = 0.81 + 0.28 - 0.25
P(Millennial or Read a Book) = 0.84
So,
P(Not Millennial and Did Not Read a Book) = 1 - 0.84
P(Not Millennial and Did Not Read a Book) = 0.16
Also,
∵ P(A') = 1 - P(A)
P(Did Not Read a Book) = 1 - P(Read a Book)
P(Did Not Read a Book) = 1 - 0.81
P(Did Not Read a Book) = 0.19
Finally,
P( Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book) = P(Not Millennial and Did Not Read a Book) / P(Did Not Read a Book)
P( Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book) = 0.16/0.19
P( Not Millennial | Did Not Read a Book) = 0.8421
(c) Are being considered a millennial and having read a book in the past year independent events? Justify your answer mathematically.
Mathematically, two events are considered to be independent if the following relation holds true,
P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)
For the given case,
P(Millennial and Read a Book) = P(Read a Book) × P(Millennial)
0.25 = 0.81 × 0.28
0.25 ≠ 0.2268
Since the relation doesn't hold true, therefore, being considered a millennial and having read a book in the past year are not independent events.
