A rainstorm in Portland, Oregon, has wiped out the electricity in about 7% of the households in the city. A management team in Portland has a big meeting tomorrow, and all 6 members of the team are hard at work in their separate households, preparing their presentations. What is the probability that none of them has lost electricity in his/her household

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.647 = 64.7% probability that none of them has lost electricity in his/her household

Step-by-step explanation:

For each household, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they lost electricity, or they did not. The probability of a household losing electricity is independent of any other household. This 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.

A rainstorm in Portland, Oregon, has wiped out the electricity in about 7% of the households in the city.

This means that [tex]p = 0.07[/tex]

6 members

This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]

What is the probability that none of them has lost electricity in his/her household?

This is P(X = 0). So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.07)^{0}.(0.93)^{6} = 0.647[/tex]

0.647 = 64.7% probability that none of them has lost electricity in his/her household

[tex]P = (\frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt 3}{2})[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]Rate = 0.935042^\circ /cm[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P = (\frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt 3}{2})[/tex]

[tex]T(x,y) =x\sin2y[/tex]

[tex]r = 1m[/tex]

[tex]v = 2m/s[/tex]

Express the given point P as a unit tangent vector:

[tex]P = (\frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt 3}{2})[/tex]

[tex]u = \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}i - \frac{1}{2}j[/tex]

Next, find the gradient of P and T using: [tex]\triangle T = \nabla T * u[/tex]

Where

[tex]\nabla T|_{(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt 3}{2})} = (sin \sqrt 3)i + (cos \sqrt 3)j[/tex]

So: the gradient becomes:

[tex]\triangle T = \nabla T * u[/tex]

[tex]\triangle T = [(sin \sqrt 3)i + (cos \sqrt 3)j] * [\frac{\sqrt 3}{2}i - \frac{1}{2}j][/tex]

By vector multiplication, we have:

[tex]\triangle T = (sin \sqrt 3)* \frac{\sqrt 3}{2} - (cos \sqrt 3) \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\triangle T = 0.9870 * 0.8660 - (-0.1606 * 0.5)[/tex]

[tex]\triangle T = 0.9870 * 0.8660 +0.1606 * 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\triangle T = 0.935042[/tex]

Hence, the rate is:

[tex]Rate = \triangle T = 0.935042^\circ /cm[/tex]

Round your answer to two decimal places, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

The standard deviation of the number of females in the sample is 3.21.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each freshmen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a female, or it is not. Sixty freshmen are randomly selected (without replacement). This means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Standard deviation of the hypergeometric distribution:

We have that:

N is the population size.

n is the sample size.

s is the number of successes in the sample.

The standard deviation is given by:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{n(\frac{s}{N})(1 - \frac{s}{N})(\frac{N - n}{N-1})}[/tex]

A small liberal arts college in the Northeast has 350freshmen.

This means that [tex]N = 350[/tex]

One hundred five of the freshmen are female.

This means that [tex]s = 105[/tex]

Suppose sixty freshmen are randomly selected

This means that [tex]n = 60[/tex]

Find the standard deviation of the number of females in the sample.

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{60(\frac{105}{350})(1 - \frac{105}{350})(\frac{350 - 60}{350 -1})} = 3.21[/tex]

Sweet corn of a certain variety is known to produce individual ears of com with a mean weight of 8 ounces. A farmer is testing a new fertilizer designed to produce larger ears of com, as measured by their weight. He selects a random sample of 10 ents of com and determines their weight (in ounces). The data are as follows: 8.25 7359,05 8.00 8.25 8.75 9.00 7.60 8.45 8.55
Do the data provide convincing evidence at the a=0.05 level that the fertilizer had a positive impact on the weight of the com cars?

Answers

Answer:

We can conclude that there is significant evidence that dL fertilizer has a positive impact on larger weight of coms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

8.25 7.35 9.05 8.00 8.25 8.75 9.00 7.60 8.45 8.55

Using calculator :

Mean, x = 8.325

Standard deviation, s = 0.560

Null hypothesis :

H0: μ = 8

H1 : μ > 8

The test statistic,

(x - μ) / (s/sqrt(n))

(8.325 - 8) / (0.56 / sqrt(10))

0.325 / 0.177

= 1.835

The Pvalue ; using the Tstatistic calculator ;

α = 0.05 ; df = 10 - 1 = 9

Pvalue = 0.04985

Reject H0 ; if Pvalue is < α

Hence, since 0.04985 < 0.05 ; we reject H0

. We can conclude that there is significant evidence that dL fertilizer has a positive impact on larger weight of coms

Answer:

5 preschoolers

Step-by-step explanation:

So this question states that yesterday, 10 preschoolers chose to play with stuffed animals and 10 different preschoolers chose to so other activities.

We can assume that there were 20 preschoolers at school yesterday (10 + 10 = 20).

From this given information, we can conclude that the preschoolers who would chose to play with stuffed animals would be the same amount at the preschoolers who would chose to do other activities.

Using all of the given information, we can also find that:

10/20 or 1/2 of the preschoolers would chose to play with the stuffed animals

and

10/20 or 1/2 of the preschoolers would chose to do other activities

We are then given that there are 10 preschoolers at school today. We are asked to find out how many of the preschoolers are expected to chose to play with the stuffed animals.

Previously, we found that 1/2 of the preschoolers yesterday chose to play with the stuffed animals. We can use this to find the expected amount of preschoolers who will chose to play with the stuffed animals today.

We can do this by multiplying 1/2 with the number of preschoolers today, or 10:

10 × 1/2 = 10/2 = 5

So it is expected that 5 preschoolers would chose to play with the stuffed animals today.
