A recent survey of students at John Tukey High School revealed that
18% of the students are in favor of changing the dress code. If you ran-
domly select 15 students from this school, what is the probability that
at least three of these students are in favor of the proposal to change the
dress code?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5234 = 52.34% probability that at least three of these students are in favor of the proposal to change the dress code.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are in favor, or they are not. Students are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

18% of the students are in favor of changing the dress code.

This means that [tex]p = 0.18[/tex]

You randomly select 15 students

This means that [tex]n = 15[/tex]

What is the probability that at least three of these students are in favor of the proposal to change the dress code?

This is

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.18)^{0}.(0.82)^{15} = 0.051[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{15,1}.(0.18)^{1}.(0.82)^{14} = 0.1678[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{15,2}.(0.18)^{2}.(0.82)^{13} = 0.2578[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.051 + 0.1678 + 0.2578 = 0.4766[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3) = 1 - 0.4766 = 0.5234[/tex]

0.5234 = 52.34% probability that at least three of these students are in favor of the proposal to change the dress code.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 5) = 6

x - 5 = 2 (divide 3 on both sides)

x = 7 (add 5 on both sides)

The solution is x = 7.

3(x-5)=6

multiply 3 by x and -5

3x-15=6

add 15 on each side

it cancels out on the left nd on the right u get 21

so it would be

3x=21

divide by 3 on each side

X=7

Solution (c) If x and y are rational numbers then is also a rational number.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Proof: Product of two rational numbers

Using direct proofs.

Let the two rational numbers be A and B.

Such that:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]B = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The product:

[tex]A * B = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]A * B = \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]A * B = 1 * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]A * B = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Proved, because 1/3 is rational

(b) Proof: Quotient of a rational number and a non-zero rational number

Using direct proofs.

Let the two rational numbers be A and B.

Such that:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]B = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The quotient:

[tex]A / B = \frac{1}{2} / \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Express as product

[tex]A / B = \frac{1}{2} / \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]A / B = \frac{1*3}{2*2}[/tex]

[tex]A / B = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Proved, because 3/4 is rational

(c) x + y is rational (missing from the question)

Using direct proofs.

Let x and y be

Such that:

[tex]x = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The sum:

[tex]x + y = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]x + y = \frac{3+4}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x + y = \frac{7}{6}[/tex]

Proved, because 7/6 is rational

The above proof works for all values of A, B, x and y; as long as they are rational values

Jollibee employs a total of 10 cashiers and 15 kitchen crews. The manager selects a team of 2 cashiers and

4 kitchen crews for a graveyard shift. In how many ways can the manager select a team?

Answers

Answer:

The manager can select a team in 61425 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the cashiers and the kitchen crews are selected is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

[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]

In how many ways can the manager select a team?

2 cashiers from a set of 10.

4 kitchen crews from a set of 15. So

[tex]T = C_{10,2}*C_{15,4} = \frac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}*\frac{15!}{4!(15-4)!} = 45*1365 = 61425[/tex]

The manager can select a team in 61425 ways.

Answers

Answer:

a = 9, c = -4?

Step-by-step explanation:

i think these are the two equations, let me know if i'm wrong

2a + 3c = 5; a + 2c = 1

rearrange second equation : a = -2c +1

plug in:

2(-2c +1) +3c = 5

-4c +1 +3c = 5

-c +1 = 5

-c = 4

c = -4

a + 2(-4) = 1

a - 8 = 1

a = 9

a=9, c=4 is the answer good luck

What is trigonometry?

The connection between the lengths and angles of a triangular shape is the subject of trigonometry.

The cosine of the angle θ is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle and the longest length of the triangle which is the hypotenuse.

cos θ = base / hypotenuse

Triangle ABC is shown below. The side BC is base which is equal to 3. And the side AB is hypotenuse which is equal to 5.

Then the cosine of the angle ∠B will be given as,

cos θ = base / hypotenuse

cos B = 3 / 5

The cosine of angle ∠B will be 3 / 5. Then the correct option is C.

1/3 of Cheryl’s savings was the same as 3/4 of Hilda’s savings.Cheryl saved $36.

(a) Find the ratio of Cheryl’s savings to Hilda’s savings.

(b) How much did Hilda save?

Answers

Answer:

a) the ratio is 9:4

b) Hilda did save $16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the variables:

C = Cheryl's savings.

H = Hilda's savings.

We know that:

(1/3)*C = (3/4)*H

We also know that Cheryl saved $36, then we have:

C = $36

Now we can replace that in the above equation to get:

(1/3)*$36 = (3/4)*H

$12 = (3/4)*H

$12*(4/3) = H = $16

Then Hilda did save $16.

And the ratio between of Cheryl's savings to Hilda's savings is:

36 : 16

We can simplify this if we divide both by 2.

(36/2) : 16/2

18 : 8

Again, we can divide both by 2:

(18/2) : (8/2)

9 : 4

Then the ratio is 9 : 4
