a) One of two boxes contain 4 red balls and 2 green balls and the second box contains 4 green and two red balls. By design, the probabilities of selecting box 1 or box 2 at random are 1/3 for box 1 and 2/3 for box 2. A box is selected at random and a ball is selected at random from it. a) Given that the ball selected is red, what is the probability it was selected from the first box? b) Given that the ball selected is red, what is the probability it was selected from the second box? c) Compare the results in parts a) and b) and explain the answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B₁ represent box 1, B₂ represent box 2, E₁ represent the event of selecting box 1, E₂ represent the event of selecting box 2 and R represent the event of selecting a red ball.

Given that:

Probability of selecting box 2 P(E₂) = 2/3, Probability of selecting box 1 = P(E₁) = 1/3

Probability of selecting red ball from box 1 = P(R | E₁) = 4/6 [4 red balls out of 4 red, 2 green]

Probability of selecting red ball from box 2 = P(R | E₂) = 2/6 [2 red balls out of 2 red, 4 green]

a)

Given the ball is red, the probability it was selected from the first box is:

[tex]P(E_1|R)=\frac{P(R|E_1)P(E_1)}{P(R|E_1)P(E_1)+P(R|E_2)P(E_2)} =\frac{2/3*1/3}{(2/3*1/3)+(1/3*2/3))} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

b)

Given the ball is red, the probability it was selected from the second box is:

[tex]P(E_2|R)=\frac{P(R|E_2)P(E_1)}{P(R|E_2)P(E_2)+P(R|E_1)P(E_1)} =\frac{1/3*2/3}{(1/3*2/3)+(2/3*1/3))} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

c)

We can see that both probabilities are equal. Although we have more red balls in box 1 (twice as much) than in box 2 but the probability of selecting from box 2 (is twice as much) than from selecting from box 1.

Answer 2

The probability that the ball selected is red and it is selected from the first box is 1/2 and the probability that the ball selected is red and it is selected from the second box is 1/2.

Given :

One of the two boxes contains 4 red balls and 2 green balls and the second box contains 4 green and two red balls. By design, the probabilities of selecting box 1 or box 2 at random are 1/3 for box 1 and 2/3 for box 2.

a) The probability that the ball selected is red and it is selected from the first box is:

[tex]P(E_1|R)=\dfrac{P(R|E_1)P(E_1)}{P(R|E_1)P(E_1)+P(R|E_2)P(E_2)}[/tex]

[tex]P(E_1|R)=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{3}}{\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{2}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]P(E_1|R)=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

b) The probability that the ball selected is red and it is selected from the second box is:

[tex]P(E_2|R)=\dfrac{P(R|E_2)P(E_2)}{P(R|E_1)P(E_1)+P(R|E_2)P(E_2)}[/tex]

[tex]P(E_2|R)=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{3}}{\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{2}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]P(E_2|R)=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

c) The probability that the ball selected is red and it is selected from the first box and the probability that the ball selected is red and it is selected from the second box is the same.

A person's systolic blood pressure, which is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), depends on a person's age, in years. The equation: P = 0.006 y 2 − 0.02 y + 121 gives a person's blood pressure, P , at age y years. A.) Find the systolic pressure, to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, for a person of age 40 years. B.) If a person's systolic pressure is 130.74 mm Hg, what is their age (rounded to the nearest whole year)?

Answers

Answer:

129.8 mmHg

42 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the relation :

P = 0.006 y² − 0.02 y + 121

Systolic blood pressure, P

Age, y

A.)

Find P when age y = 40

P = 0.006(40)² − 0.02(40) + 121

P = 9.6 - 0.8 + 121

P = 129.8 mmHg

B)

P = 130.74 mmHg

y =?

130.74 = 0.006y² − 0.02y + 121

130.74 - 121 = 0.006y² − 0.02y

9.74 = 0.006y² − 0.02y

0.006y² − 0.02y - 9.74 = 0

Using a quadratic equation solver :

The roots are 41.99 and - 38.66

Age cannot be negative ;

Hence age = 41.99 = 42 years

Answer:

Use Trigonometric formulae to simplify expressions

Step-by-step explanation:

Re-order to group the x and y,

Sin(y) / Sin(a+y) = x

to differentiate apply d/dx to both sides

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex]Sin(y) / Sin(a+y) = [tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex]x

use division rule on left side which will give

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]Cos(y)Sin(a+y) - [tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]Cos(a+y)Sin(y) / Sin²(a+y) = 1

Group them so dy/dx is on the left hand side:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = Sin²(a+y) / Cos(y)Sin(a+y) - Cos(a+y)Sin(y)

Apply trigonometric sum formula to expand Sin(a+y) and Cos(a+y),

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] =  Sin²(a+y) / Cos(y)[Sin(a)Cos(y) + Cos(a)Sin(y)] - Sin(y)[Cos(a)Cos(y) - Sin(a)Sin(y)]

Simplify it

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = Sin²(a+y) / (Cos²(y) + Sin²(y))(Sin(a))

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = Sin²(a+y) / (1)(Sin(a))

The correct application of the quadratic formula.

Solution:

If a quadratic equation is [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], then the quadratic formula is

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]y=6x^2-9x+22[/tex]

Putting [tex]y=0[/tex], we get

[tex]6x^2-9x+22=0[/tex]

Here, [tex]a=6,b=-9,c=22[/tex]. Using the quadratic formula, we get

[tex]x=\dfrac{-(-9)\pm \sqrt{(-9)^2-4(6)(22)}}{2(6)}[/tex]

The correct application of the quadratic formula is [tex]x=\dfrac{-(-9)\pm \sqrt{(-9)^2-4(6)(22)}}{2(6)}[/tex].

Prove that the figure is a parallelogram. If so, classify the parallelogram. Be specific and justify your answer.

What is the perimeter and area? ​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is a parallelogram the opposite sides will a have the same slope.

Using the diagram  we see from the coordinates of A and B:

Slope of AB = (5 - -1)/(-1 - -5)

= 6/4

= 3/2.

In the same way

slope of CD = (2 - -4) / (1 - -3)

= 3/2.

So AB and  CD can be shown to be parallel.

Similarly the lines BC and AD are parallel.

So the figure is a parallelogram

Finding the perimeter (counting the units between the points):

Perimeter = 2AB + 2BC

By Pythagoras:

AB =   sqrt (6^2 + 4^2) = sqrt 52

BC = sqrt (3^2 + 2^2) = sqrt 13

So Perimeter = 2sqrt52 + 2sqrt13

= 4sqrt13 + 2 sqrt13

= 6sqrt13

or 21.63 unit^2 to 2 decimal places.

Area = sqrt52 * perpendicular distance between the lines AB and CD.

Answers

Answer:

The step-by-step procedure to solve this question is given, using the normal approximation to the binomial distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution to solve this question.

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 distributions 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 the U.S., 45% of adults over 65 suffer from one or more of the conditions considered in the study.

This means that [tex]p = 0.45[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation for the approximation, for a sample of n:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 0.45n[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{0.45*0.55n}[/tex]

Calculate the probability that fewer than 320 out of the n

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X < 320 - 0.5) = P(X < 319.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 319.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{319.5 - 0.45n}{\sqrt{0.45*0.55n}}[/tex]

Just have to replace the value of n, find Z, and then find its pvalue.
