In a large school, it was found that 69% of students are taking a math class, 70% of student are taking an English class, and 50% of students are taking both.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P(Math or English) = 0.89

Step-by-step explanation: This solution will only be applicable if finding the probability that a randomly selected student is taking a math class or an English class.

Lets study the meaning of or , and on probability. The use of the word or means that you are calculating the probability

that either event A or event B happened

Both events do not have to happen

The use of the word and, means that both event A and B have to happened

The addition rules are: # P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ⇒ mutually exclusive (events cannot happen

at the same time)

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) ⇒ non-mutually exclusive (if they

have at least one outcome in common)

The union is written as A ∪ B or “A or B”.

The Both is written as A ∩ B or “A and B”

Lets solve the question

The probability of taking Math class 69%

The probability of taking English class 70%

The probability of taking both classes is 50%

P(Math) = 69% = 0.69

P(English) = 70% = 0.70

P(Math and English) = 50% = 0.50

To find P(Math or English) use the rule of non-mutually exclusive

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(Math or English) = P(Math) + P(English) - P(Math and English)

Lets substitute the values of P(Math) , P(English) , P(Math and English)

in the rule P(Math or English) = 0.69 + 0.70 - 0.50 = 0.89

P(Math or English) = 0.89

P(Math or English) = 0.89

This solution will only be applicable if we are to find the probability that a randomly selected student is taking a math class or an English class.

What is the leading coefficient of a cubic polynomial that has a value of −208 when x=1, and has zeros of 5, 5i, and −5i?

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We already have the zeros, so we can write the cubic polynomial in this general form:

[tex]y = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2)(x - x_3)[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x_1 = 5[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = 5i[/tex]

[tex]x_3 = -5i[/tex]

So we have that:

[tex]y = a(x -5)(x - 5i)(x + 5i)[/tex]

[tex]y = a(x -5)(x^2 + 25)[/tex]

To find the value of the leading coefficient 'a', we can use the point (1, -208) given:

[tex]-208 = a(1 -5)(1 + 25)[/tex]

[tex]-208 = a(-4)(26)[/tex]

[tex]a = -208 / (-104) = 2[/tex]

So the leading coefficient is 2.

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is,

f(x) = x² + 3x + 5

We have to find the value of f(a + h) so we will substitute (a + h) in place of x, and simplify the expression.

f(a + h) = (a + h)² + 3(a + h) + 5

           = a² + 2ah + h² + 3(a + h) + 5 [(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²]

           = a² + 2ah + h² + 3a + 3h + 5

Therefore, Option A will be the answer.

Explain in your own words why a polynomial can’t be a quadratic if a= 0?

Answers

If [tex]a = 0[/tex], then [tex]y = ax^2+bx+c[/tex] turns into [tex]y = 0x^2+bx+c[/tex]. That [tex]0x^2[/tex] term goes away because it turns into 0, and adding 0 onto anything does not change the expression.

So  [tex]y = 0x^2+bx+c[/tex] turns into [tex]y = bx+c[/tex] which is a linear equation (b is the slope, c is the y intercept). It is no longer a quadratic as quadratic equations always graph out a curved parabola.

As an example, you could graph out [tex]y = 0x^2+3x+4[/tex] and note how it's the exact same as [tex]y = 3x+4[/tex], both of which are straight lines through the two points (0,4) and (1,7).

The CEO of a large manufacturing company is curious if there is a difference in productivity level of her warehouse employees based on the region of the country the warehouse is located. She randomly selects 35 employees who work in warehouses on the East Coast (Group 1) and 35 employees who work in warehouses in the Midwest (Group 2) and records the number of parts shipped out from each for a week. She finds that East Coast group ships an average of 1299 parts and knows the population standard deviation to be 350. The Midwest group ships an average of 1456 parts and knows the population standard deviation to be 297.Using a 0.01 level of significance, test if there is a difference in productivity level. What is the p-value? (Round to four decimal places) p-value =

Answers

Answer:

The results of the hypothesis test suggests that there is no difference in productivity level of two warehouses (East Coast and the Midwest Coast).

p-value = 0.0473

Step-by-step explanation:

To perform this test we first define the null and alternative hypothesis.

The null hypothesis plays the devil's advocate and usually takes the form of the opposite of the theory to be tested. It usually contains the signs =, ≤ and ≥ depending on the directions of the test.

While, the alternative hypothesis usually confirms the the theory being tested by the experimental setup. It usually contains the signs ≠, < and > depending on the directions of the test.

For this question, we want to test if there is a difference in productivity level of the two warehouses (East Coast and the Midwest Coast).

Hence, the null hypothesis would be that there isn't significant evidence to suggest that there is a difference in productivity level of two warehouses (East Coast and the Midwest Coast). That is, there is no difference in the productivity level of two warehouses (East Coast and the Midwest Coast).

The alternative hypothesis is that there is significant evidence to suggest that there is a difference in productivity level of two warehouses (East Coast and the Midwest Coast).

Mathematically, if the average productivity level of the East Coast group is μ₁, the average productivity level of the Midwest group is μ₂ and the difference in productivity level is μ = μ₂ - μ₁

The null hypothesis is represented as

H₀: μ = 0 or μ₂ = μ₁

The alternative hypothesis is represented as

Hₐ: μ ≠ 0 or μ₂ ≠ μ₁

So, to perform this test, we need to compute the test statistic

Test statistic for 2 sample mean data is given as

Test statistic = (μ₂ - μ₁)/σ

σ = √[(s₂²/n₂) + (s₁²/n₁)]

μ₁ = average productivity level of the East Coast group = 1299 parts shipped

n₁ = sample size of East Coast group surveyed = 35

s₁ = standard deviation of the East Coast group sampled = 350

μ₂ = average productivity level of the Midwest group = 1456 parts shipped

n₂ = sample size of Midwest group surveyed = 35

s₂ = standard deviation of the Midwest group sampled = 297

σ = √[(297²/35) + (350²/35)] = 77.5903160379 = 77.59

We will use the t-distribution as no information on population standard deviation is provided

t = (1456 - 1299) ÷ 77.59

= 2.02

checking the tables for the p-value of this t-statistic

Degree of freedom = df = n₁ + n₂ - 2 = 35 + 35 - 2 = 68

Significance level = 0.01

The hypothesis test uses a two-tailed condition because we're testing in both directions.

p-value (for t = 2.02, at 0.01 significance level, df = 68, with a two tailed condition) = 0.047326

The interpretation of p-values is that

When the (p-value > significance level), we fail to reject the null hypothesis and when the (p-value < significance level), we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

So, for this question, significance level = 0.01

p-value = 0.047326

0.047326 > 0.01

Hence,

p-value > significance level

This means that we fail to reject the null hypothesis & say that there isn't enough evidence to suggest that there is a difference in productivity level of two warehouses (East Coast and the Midwest Coast).

Translate into an algebraic expressions: b is decreased by 40% and decreased again by 40% . What is the result ?

Answers

Answer:

Result = 9b/25 or 36b/100

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is b

step 1

b is decreased by 40%

value of 40% of b = 40/100 *b = 4b/10

New value after this change = b - 40% decreased value of b = b -4b/10

= (10b-4b)/10 = 6b/10

Step 2 The new value obtained is again decreased by 40%

value of 40%  number found in step 1 =  40% of value found in step 1

value of 40%  number found in step 1 =  40/100 * 6b/10 = 24b/100

This value (24b/100) is subtracted from value found in step 1(6b/10) as given that  value obtained is decreased by 40%

new value found after 40% decrease = 6b/10 - 24b/100

new value found after 40% decrease = 60b/100 - 24b/100= 36b/100

new value found after 40% decrease =  36b/100 = 9b/25

Thus, the result of b is decreased by 40% and decreased again by 40% is 9b/25

The sugar content of the syrup in canned peaches is normally distributed. A random sample of n=25 cans yields a sample standard deviation of s=6.9 milligrams. Construct a 99% one-sided lower confidence bound for the population variance.

Answers

Answer:

99% one-sided lower confidence bound = 26.77

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 99% one-sided lower confidence bound for the population variance.

The sample size is n=25.

The degrees of freedom are then:

[tex]df=n-1=25-1=24[/tex]

The critical value of the chi-square for this confidence bound is:

[tex]\chi^2_{0.01, \,24}=42.98[/tex]

Then, the lower confidence bound can be calculated as:

[tex]LB=\dfrac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{0.01,24}}=\dfrac{24\cdot(6.9)^2}{42.98}=\dfrac{1,142.64}{42.68}=26.77[/tex]

How to find the y-intercepts?

For a function y = f(x), the y-intercept is the value that takes y when we evaluate in x = 0.

So, for the first function:

[tex]f(x) = (1/5)*|x - 15|[/tex]

The y-intercept is:

[tex]f(0) =  (1/5)*|0 - 15| = 15/5 = 3[/tex]

For the second function:

[tex]g(x) = (x - 2)^2[/tex]

The y-intercept is:

[tex]g(0) = (0 - 2)^2 = (-2)^2 = 4[/tex]

Then we can see that g(x) has a greater y-intercept than f(x).

Required:
a. How many cars on the lot have at least one of the three options?
b. How many have exactly one?

Answers

Answer:

a. 55 cars

b. 25 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of cars with stereo systems N(ss), with air conditioners N(ac) and with sun roofs N(sr).

So we have that:

N(ss) = 30

N(ac) = 30

N(sr) = 40

N(ss and ac and sr) = 15

N(at least two) = 30

a.

To find how many cars have at least one option (N(at least one) or N(ss or ac or sr)), we have:

N(ss or ac or sr) = N(ss) + N(ac) + N(sr) - N(ss and ac) - N(ss and sr) - N(ac and sr) + N(ss and ac and sr)

N(ss or ac or sr) = 30 + 30 + 40 - (N(at least two) + 2*N(ss and ac and sr)) + 15

N(ss or ac or sr) = 30 + 30 + 40 - (30 + 2*15) + 15 = 55

b.

The number of cars that have only one option is:

N(only one) = N(at least one) - N(at least two)

N(only one) = 55 - 30 = 25
