a bag contains 3 red balls and 1 blue ball. what is the expected number of red balls in the first bag

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Expected\ Value = 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Red\ Balls = 3[/tex]

[tex]Blue\ Balls = 1[/tex]

Required

Determine the expected number of red balls

First, we calculate the probability of a red ball

[tex]P(Red\ Ball) = \frac{Red\ Ball}{Total}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red\ Ball) = \frac{3}{3 + 1}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red\ Ball) = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red\ Ball) = 0.75[/tex]

The expected value is then calculated as:

[tex]Expected\ Value = P(Red\ Ball) * Total[/tex]

[tex]Expected\ Value = 0.75 * 4[/tex]

[tex]Expected\ Value = 3[/tex]

The monthly electric bills in a certain community are normally distributed, with a mean of $245 and a standard distribution of $55. If there are 461 households in the community, about how many of them have electric bills less than $200?

A. 45
B. 21
C. 95
D. 81

Answers

95 households have electricity bills of less than $200. Option C is correct.

Given that,
The monthly electric bills in a certain community are normally distributed, with a mean of $245 and a standard distribution of $55. There are 461 households in the community, how many of them have electric bills less than $200 is to be determined.

What is probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.


probability for the number of households has electric bills less than $200.
x = 200 , μ = 245 ; σ = 55
Now,
Probability,
z (p < 200) =  [tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
z (p < 200) =  (200 - 245)/55
                = --45/5
                = -0.818181
p < 200 = 0.206 (from z table)

Now, the number of households that has electricity bill less than $200,
= 461 * 0.206
= 94.966
≈ 95

Thus, 95 number of household have electricity bills of less than $200. Option C is correct.

Then divide both sides by 4 to remove the coefficient of x. That means x = 6.

What value(s) of b will cause 3x2 + bx + 3 = 0 to have one real solution? Select all that apply.
b = –6
B.b = –9
C.b = 6
D.b = 9

Answers

Answer:  -6 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:  

Possible factors that could produce 3x² + 6x +3 are  (x + 1)(3x + 3)

the solution for values of x: x+1=0, x= -1  3x+3=0,  3x= -3 . x= -1 . Same.

Possible factors that could produce 3x² - 6x +3 are  (x - 1)(3x - 3)

the solution for values of x: x-1=0, x= 1  3x-3=0,  3x= 3 . x= 1 . Same.

From the attached graph of the possible equations, you can see that 9 and -9 won't produce ONE real solution. They each have "zeros" at two points on the x-axis. That is two solutions that would make x = 0.

The equations with -6 and +6 each touch the x-axis at only one point each.

Assume that last year in a particular state with 700000 children there were 1205 children out of 32600 in a random sample who were diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Nationally, 1 out of 88 children are diagnosed with ASD. Is there sufficient data to show that the incident rate of ASD is higher in that state than nationally

Answers

Answer:

We accept Hₐ   there is enough evidence to claim that the incidence of ASD is bigger in this state than it is nationally

Step-by-step explanation:

The population follows a binomial distribution, and the fact that

p₀ = 1205/32600 = 0,03696       and then q₀  = 1-0,03696 = 0,9630

And both

p₀*n = 0,03696*32600 = 1205 > 10

q₀*n = 31395 > 10

The binomial distribution can be approximate to a Normal Distribution, then we need to develop a one tail test ( to the right) to evaluate if the claim " There is sufficient data to show that the incident rate is higher in the mentioned state than the national one.

Therefore:

Hypothesis Test                    H₀    ⇒    p₀ = p

Alternative Hypothesis        Hₐ   ⇒     p₀ > p

p is the population proportion mean

p = 1/88  =  0,011

We must test having a very wide Confidence Interval since the matter we are trying is public health then we choose CI = 95 %

CI = 95 %     α = 5 %    α = 0,05    

Critical value for 0,05  is from z-table  z(c) = 1,64

We compute z(s)

z(s) =( p₀ - p )/ √ p₀*q₀/n

z(s) = 0,03696 - 0,011 / √ (0,03696*0,9630)/ 32600

z(s) =  0,02596* 180,55/ √ 0,0356

z(s) = 4,687 / 0,189

z(s) = 24,9

Comparing  z(s) and z(c)   24,9 > 1, 64

z(s) is out of the acceptance region and we have to reject H₀

We accept Hₐ   there is enough evidence to claim that the incidence of ASD is bigger in this state than it is nationally

Yes there is a proportinal relationship because when I did 19 divided by 2 I got 9.5 and when I do 76 divided by 8 I got 9.5 so its proportinal. Yes I can find how much money 6 pounds is its 57. And yes I can do it without a table because all you have to do is divide the 19 and 2 and the other 2 numbers and if there the same then its proportinal.

Answer:

y=mx+c y= -2/7+5/2 if this is right can i get brainliest and if u need explanation just ask

Answer:

D. y = -7/2x+5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the graph would be: y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Based on the graph, you can see that the y-intercept is 5/2 (somewhere between 5 and 0) so A and C are out. Remaining are options B and C.

Now, the slope is either -2/7 or -7/2. We will have to calculate the slope then. I will be using the points (-1, 6) and (1, -1)

[tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-1-6}{1-(-1)}[/tex]

    = [tex]\frac{-7}{2}[/tex]

   = -[tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] (Same as option D)

Thus, the equation would have been: -[tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]x + [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

The manager of a grocery store has selected a random sample of 100 customers. The average length of time it took these 100 customers to check out was 3.0 minutes. It is known that the standard deviation of the checkout time is 1 minute. Refer to Exhibit 8-2. If the confidence coefficient is reduced to .80, the standard error of the mean _____.

Answers

Answer:

The standard error of the mean remains unchanged.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The standard error (S.E) of the mean [tex]= \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] with is independent of confidence coefficient.

The margin of error [tex]E = z \times S.E[/tex]

This explains the claim that as the confidence coefficient reduces, the z-value also reduces, so as the Margin of error (E) but the standard error will always remain unchanged.  

i.e.

From the question;

sample size n = 100

standard deviation = 1

mean = 3.0

The standard error (S.E) of the mean [tex]= \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]

= 0.1

So, if the confidence coefficient is reduced to 0.80, the standard error of the mean remains unchanged.

Answer:

[tex] y = -\frac{10}{3}x - 23 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find slope (m) using of the line that passes through (-9, 7) and (-6, -3).

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{-3 - 7}{-6 -(-9)} = \frac{-10}{3} = -\frac{10}{3} [/tex]

Find y-intercept (b) by substituting m = -10/3, x = -6, and y = -3 in y = mx + b.

Thus:

-3 = (-10/3)(-6) + b

-3 = 20 + b

Subtract 20 from each side

-23 = b

b = -23

substitute m = -10/3, and b = -23 in y = mx + b, to get the equation.

The equation of the line would be:

✅ [tex] y = -\frac{10}{3}x + (-23) [/tex]

[tex] y = -\frac{10}{3}x - 23 [/tex]
