Explain the meaning of probability. What does it mean if an event has a probability of 0? Give an example. What does it mean if an event has a probability of 1? Give an example. What does it mean if an event has a probability of 1/2? Give an example. (LONG ANSWERS ONLY)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

If an event has a probability of 0 it means that it is impossible. For example when they say there is 0% of rain. It is very unlikely it is going to rain. If an event has a probability of 1 it means that it is certain. For example, if they say there is a 100% chance it is going to rain. It is very certain that it's going to rain. If an event is 1/2 then it means there it is likely as it is unlikely. For example, if they say there is a 50% chance of rain. Then it might not rain, but there is a chance that it might rain as well.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Probability can simply be defined as the chances of an event a, occuring with respect to event b, with respect to event n, given an nth number of possible outcomes.

Probability can be calculated using the following expression:

[tex] \frac{freq \: of \: event \: n}{freq \: of \: total \: number \: of \: events} [/tex]

When an event has a probability of 0, it means that by no chance or condition will the event be true. For example, the probability of a person who is a boy has 0 probability that he is a girl.

When an event has a probability of 1, it means that with every chance or condition, the event will be true. For example, the probability that a person who is a boy has a probability of 1 that he is a boy.

An event that has a probability of 1/2 means that the event could either return a probability of 0 or 1 on different chances or conditions. For example, the probability of a fuetus whose gender is not known has a probability of 1/2 for being a boy and 1/2 for being a girl.

a. The fraction of the whole circle represented by this arc is
b. The measure of the central angle defined by the arc is
degrees.
C. The area of the sector defined by the arc is
cm2. (Express answer
in terms of r or pi).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Fraction = \frac{31}{38}[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 296.18^\circ[/tex]

[tex]Area = 29.62 \pi[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]r = 6[/tex]--- radius

[tex]L = 31[/tex] --- arc length

Solving (a): Fraction represented by the arc

First, calculate the circumference (C)

[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]C = 2 * 3.14 * 6[/tex]

[tex]C = 38[/tex] --- approximated

So, the fraction represented by the arc is:

[tex]Fraction = \frac{L}{C}[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{31}{38}[/tex]

Solving (b): Measure of the center angle

Using arc length formula, we have:

[tex]L = \frac{\theta}{360} * 2\pi r[/tex]

This gives

[tex]31 = \frac{\theta}{360} * 2 * 3.14 * 6[/tex]

[tex]31 = \frac{\theta}{360} * 37.68[/tex]

Make [tex]\theta[/tex] the subject

[tex]\theta = \frac{360 * 31}{37.68}[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 296.18^\circ[/tex]

Solving (c): The area of the sector

This is calculated as:

[tex]Area = \frac{\theta}{360} * \pi r^2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Area = \frac{296.18}{360} * \pi * 6^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{296.18}{360} * \pi * 36[/tex]

Divide 360 and 36

[tex]Area = \frac{296.18}{10} * \pi[/tex]

[tex]Area = 29.618 * \pi\\[/tex]

[tex]Area = 29.62 \pi[/tex] --- approximated

Answers

First find the area of one side.

The area of the side of a cube is s^2 where s is the length if one edge.

The edge length is given as 2/3, so the area of a side is 2/3^2 which is equal to 2/3 x 2/3 = 4/9 square units.

A cube has 6 sides so now to find the surface area of the cube multiply the area of one side by 6 sides:

4/9 square units x 6 = (4 x6)/9 = 24/9 which can be rewritten as 2 2/3 square units

The answer is 2 2/3 units^2

Answer:

15 plates

Step-by-step explanation:

450 divided by 30 = 15, meaning 30 x 15 would be 450 mg. This also means that if the weight of some plates was 450 mg, there would be 15 plates.

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Your units are a little confused.

The mass (total ) is 450 mg

1 plate weighs 30 mg

1 plate / 30 mg  =  x plates / 450 mg             Cross multiply

1 * 450 = 30x                                                   Divide by 30

450 / 30 = x

x = 15

There are 15 gold plates.

Portia has purchased a new aquarium for her fish. It is in the shape of a hexagonal prism. 3a) How much water can Portia’s new aquarium hold? * 1 point a) 166.28 cubic inches b) 790.28 cubic inches c) 956.56 cubic inches d) 3120 cubic inches e) 6240 cubic inches

Answers

Answer:

D. 3120

Step-by-step explanation:

How many sides does a hexagon have? Six. Let's begin our equation with 6. The area of a triangle formula would be: 1/2 bh. And a hexagon is just six triangles put together. Now our equation is: 6 (1/2 bh) What's bh then? B (base)= 8in. The base is usually always at the bottom. Now we take 10 and add it into the equation. Next we would multiply this by 13. Our equation is now: 6(1/2*8*10)*13. What do you get then? 3120.

For Part B:  Portia's new fish require complete darkness for 12 hours a day. Rather than buying a blackout curtain for her room, she decides to make an aquarium cover out of a tropical print, with a blackout liner. How much tropical print fabric will she need to purchase in order to cover the top and sides of the aquarium?

Now, we're dealing with surface area. What is surface area, anyway? Surface area is the sum of all faces. There are 2 hexagonal faces and 6 sides.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture records data on farm acreage and number of farms by county for every county in the country. This takes considerable time and energy, and the results for each update (usually occurring approximately every five years) are a long time in process. A quicker way to update the data is by sampling. The table below shows the number of counties in each geographic region and a summary of farm acres (in thousands) for independent random samples of 22 counties from each region.

Region Number of counties
North Central 1052
North East 210
South 1376
West 418

Required:
a. Estimate the mean acreage for each region, with a margin of error.
b. Estimate the total acreage for each region, with a margin of error.
c. Estimate the difference between mean acreage for the North Central region and the South, with a margin of error.
d. Estimate the difference between mean acreage for the North East and the West, with a margin of error.
e. Estimate the mean acreage per county across the United States, with a margin of error.

Answers

Solution :

From the table,

Number of countries = [tex]$N_i$[/tex]

Mean = [tex]$\overline Y_i$[/tex]

Standard deviation = [tex]$\sigma_i$[/tex]

Margin of error of B = 50,000 acres

So we determine the [tex]$\text{sample size n}$[/tex] and then allocate the four regions of [tex]$n_1, n_2, n_3$[/tex] and [tex]$n_4$[/tex].

Under the [tex]$\text{proportional allocation}$[/tex], the [tex]$\text{equation}$[/tex] for the value of [tex]$n_1$[/tex] which yields [tex]$V(\overline Y_{st}) = D = \frac{B^2}{H}$[/tex]  is given by :

[tex]$n=\frac{\sum_{K=1}^L N_K \sigma^2_K}{ND+\frac{1}{N}\sum_{K=1}^L N_K \sigma^2_K}$[/tex]

Let us complete the numerator

[tex]$\sum_{K=1}^L N_K \sigma^2_K = N_1\sigma_1^2 + N_2\sigma_2^2 + N_3\sigma_3^2 + N_4\sigma_4^2$[/tex]

                [tex]$= 1052 \times (271)^2 + 210 \times (79)^2 + 1376 \times (244)^2 + 418 \times (837)^2 $[/tex]

                = 453329920

The bound on the error of estimation is B = 50,000 acres

Hence we get

[tex]$D=\frac{B^2}{H}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{50000^2}{4}$[/tex]

  = 625,000,000

[tex]$n=\frac{\sum_{K=1}^L N_K \sigma^2_K}{ND+\frac{1}{N}\sum_{K=1}^L N_K \sigma^2_K}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{453329920}{3056 \times 625 + \frac{1}{3056} \times 453329920}$[/tex]

 = 220.24044

≈ 221 (approximately)

Therefore, the sample size under the proportional allocation from each stratum are given by :

[tex]$n_1=n\left[\frac{N_1}{\sum_{K=1}^\mu N_K}\right]$[/tex]

   [tex]$=221\left[\frac{1052}{3056}\right]$[/tex]

   ≈ 76

[tex]$n_2=n\left[\frac{N_2}{\sum_{K=1}^\mu N_K}\right]$[/tex]

   [tex]$=221\left[\frac{210}{3056}\right]$[/tex]

   ≈ 15

[tex]$n_3=n\left[\frac{N_3}{\sum_{K=1}^\mu N_K}\right]$[/tex]

   [tex]$=221\left[\frac{1376}{3056}\right]$[/tex]

   ≈ 100

[tex]$n_4=n\left[\frac{N_4}{\sum_{K=1}^\mu N_K}\right]$[/tex]

   [tex]$=221\left[\frac{418}{3056}\right]$[/tex]

   ≈ 30

Thus, we should select 76 counties from North central region, 15 counties from the north east region, 100 from south region and 30 from west region.

We can also estimate mean acreage of each county across all the county with a margin of error of 50,000 acres.

Answer:

The average rate of change of the function over the interval is of 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change:

The average rate of change of a function h(x) over an interval [a,b] is given by:

[tex]A = \frac{h(b)-h(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

In this question:

Over the interval [-9,-2], so [tex]a = -9, b = -2, b - a = -2 -(-9) = 7[/tex]

The function is:

[tex]h(x) = -x^2 - 5x + 14[/tex]

[tex]h(-9) = -9^2 -5(-9) + 14 = -81 + 45 + 14 = -22[/tex]

[tex]h(-2) = -2^2 -5(-2) + 14 = -4 + 10 + 14 = 20[/tex]

Then

[tex]A = \frac{h(-2)-h(-9)}{7} = \frac{20-(-22)}{7} = \frac{42}{7} = 6[/tex]

The average rate of change of the function over the interval is of 6.
