Of the 6 people attending a seminar, 3 have red hair.
What is the probability that a randomly selected person will have red hair?
Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Total -- 6 people

3 people -- 3/6 = 1/2

Therefore, the answer is 1/2

Answer 2

The probability that a randomly selected person will have red hair for this case is obtained  being 1/2 (in fraction form) or 0.5 (in decimal form).

How to calculate the probability of an event?

Suppose that there are finite elementary events in the sample space of the considered experiment, and all are equally likely.

Then, suppose we want to find the probability of an event E.

Then, its probability is given as

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text{Number of total cases}} = \dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}[/tex]

where favorable cases are those elementary events who belong to E, and total cases are the size of the sample space.

For this case, we're given that:

Number of people from which selection is done = 6Total number of people of out of those 6 people having red hairs = 3One person is selected in random.

We can assume that all the people are equally likely to get selected for this case as selection was done randomly, so all of the 6 people was likely to get chosen without bias.

Now, let we take:

E = event of selecting a red hair person

Then, the number of ways a selection ends up making E happen = 3 (as there are 3 people with red hair, so any of those 3 getting selected will make E happen).

Total number of ways selection can be done = 6 (as selection is done from those 6 people).

Thus, we get:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text{Number of total cases}} = \dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)} = \dfrac{3}{6} = \dfrac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]


Thus, the probability that a randomly selected person will have red hair for this case is obtained  being 1/2 (in fraction form) or 0.5 (in decimal form).

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

It is given that:

A sphere with a diameter of 9 units fits exactly in the clear glass cube.

Diameter = 9 units

The radius r = 9/2 units

The volume of the sphere:

Bryce, a top landscape architect, was given a special garden design job. The client owned a property as shown below, in which he wanted to have four separate small gardens, each of them exactly the same size and shape. In other words, “congruent.” Remember, all four gardens must fit exactly within the shape of the property as shown below; you can’t change the dimensions of the property or move things around - you have to keep your design within the original shape. Bryce came up with an ingenious design that fit the client’s request exactly. Can you figure out what his design was?

A manufacturer produces widgets that are packaged in boxes of 100. The probability of a widget being defective is 0.021. Find the mean and standard deviation for the number of defective widgets in a box.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\=x=2.1[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=2.03[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size[tex]n=100[/tex]

Probability of  a defective widget [tex]P=0.021[/tex]

Generally the equation for binomial trial is mathematically given by

 [tex]q=1-p[/tex]

 [tex]q=1-0.021[/tex]

 [tex]q=0.979[/tex]

Since X is binomial random variable with functions of n and p,The equation of mean \=x

 [tex]\=x=E(x)[/tex]

  Where

  [tex]E(x=n*p)[/tex]

 [tex]\=x=100*0.021[/tex]

 [tex]\=x=2.1[/tex]

Generally the equation for variance \sigma is mathematically given by

 [tex]\sigma=\sqrt{nqp}[/tex]

 [tex]\sigma=\sqrt{200*0.021*0.979}[/tex]

 [tex]\sigma=2.03[/tex]

Following are the solution to the given question:

Consider a sample with data values of 10, 20, 12, 17, and 16. Compute the -score for each of the five observations (to 2 decimals). Enter negative values as negative numbers. Observed value -score

Answers

Answer:

Hence, the score for each of the five observations are [tex]-1.25,1.25,-0.75,0.50,0.25[/tex]

Given :

Sample with data values of [tex]x_i[/tex]  [tex]10,20,12,17[/tex] and [tex]16[/tex]

Sample size[tex]n=5[/tex]

To find:

Compute the score for each of the five observations.

Explanation :

[tex]\because[/tex] Sample mean [tex]\bar{x}=\frac{\sum x_i}{n}[/tex]

                     [tex]\Rightarrow \bar{x}=\frac{10+20+12+17+16}{5}=\frac{75}{5}[/tex]

                    [tex]\Rightarrow \bar{x}=15[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i-\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}[/tex]

                             [tex]\Rightarrow \sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(10-15)^2+(20-15)^2+(12-15)^2+(17-15)^2+(16-15)^2}{5-1}}[/tex]

                            [tex]\Rightarrow \sigma=\sqrt{\frac{(-5)^2+(5)^2+(-3)^2+(2)^2+(1)^2}{4}}[/tex]

                           [tex]\Rightarrow \sigma=\sqrt{\frac{25+25+9+4+1}{4}}[/tex]

                          [tex]\Rightarrow \sigma=\sqrt{\frac{64}{4}} =\sqrt{16}[/tex]

                         [tex]\Rightarrow \sigma=4[/tex]

[tex]\because[/tex] The score of the observations [tex]Z[/tex] is [tex]\frac{x-\bar{x}}{\sigma}[/tex].

So, when [tex](x=10),[/tex]       [tex]Z=\frac{10-15}{4}=-1.25[/tex]

     when [tex](x=20),[/tex]       [tex]Z=\frac{20-15}{4}=1.25[/tex]

     when [tex](x=12),[/tex]      [tex]Z=\frac{12-15}{4}=-0.75[/tex]

    when  [tex](x=17},[/tex]       [tex]Z=\frac{17-15}{4}=0.50[/tex]

    when [tex](x=16)[/tex]       [tex]Z=\frac{16-15}{4}=0.25[/tex]

If YV = 28 in, find the length of VYX.

Answers

Answer:

B) 68.91 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, lets define what we are trying to find. VYX is the major arc VX, spanning from V to X crossing over Y.

We are also given that the diameter is 28 inches.

Since arc length and area are proportional to the central angle, we can create the following equality:

angle of VYX/360 = arc length of VYX/circumference

We know that the central angle of VYX = central angle of minor UV + UYX = 117 + (180-15) = 282 degrees.

282/360 * 28*pi = arc length of VYX

Thus, the length of VYX = 68.90559887 inches

Thus, the correct answer is B, 68.91 in.

Randomly selected men are given a Test Preparation Course before taking this test. Assume, for sake of argument, that the preparation course has no effect. If 1 of the men is randomly selected, find the probability that his score is at least 545.7. P(X > 545.7)

Answers

Answer:

0.3257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an approximately normal distribution:

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Mean = 496 ; Standard deviation = 110

For :

P(x > 545.7)

We obtain the standardized, Z score

Z = (545.7 - 496) / 110

Z = 49.7 / 110

Z = 0.4518

Hence, using the Z distribution table :

P(Z > 0.4518) = 1 - P(Z < 0.4518)

P(Z > 0.4518) = 1 - 0.67429
