63% of US adults opposed to taxes on junk food and soda. You randomly select 10 US adults. Find the probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda (a) exactly one, (b) at least four, and (c) less than eight
Answer:
a) 0.0008 = 0.08% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is exactly one.
b) 0.9644 = 96.44% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is at least four.
c) 0.7795 = 77.95% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is less than eight.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are opposed to taxes on junk food and soda, or they are not. Each adult is independent of other adults, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve the 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.
63% of US adults opposed to taxes on junk food and soda.
This means that [tex]p = 0.63[/tex]
You randomly select 10 US adults.
This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
(a) exactly one
This is [tex]P(X = 1)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.63)^{1}.(0.37)^{9} = 0.0008[/tex]
0.0008 = 0.08% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is exactly one.
(b) at least four
This is
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.63)^{0}.(0.37)^{10} \approx 0[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.63)^{1}.(0.37)^{9} = 0.0008[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.63)^{2}.(0.37)^{8} = 0.0063[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.63)^{3}.(0.37)^{7} = 0.0285[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0 + 0.0008 + 0.0063 + 0.0285 = 0.0356[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - 0.0356 = 0.9644[/tex]
0.9644 = 96.44% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is at least four.
(c) less than eight
This is
[tex]P(X < 8) = 1 - P(X \geq 8)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.63)^{8}.(0.37)^{2} = 0.1529[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,1}.(0.63)^{9}.(0.37)^{1} = 0.0578[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,2}.(0.63)^{10}.(0.37)^{0} = 0.0098[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.1529 + 0.0578 + 0.0098 = 0.2205[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 8) = 1 - P(X \geq 8) = 1 - 0.2205 = 0.7795[/tex]
0.7795 = 77.95% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is less than eight.

Suppose P(t)represents the population of a certain mosquito colony, where. t is measured in days. The current population of the colony is known to be 574 mosquitos; that is, P(0)=574. If P'(0)=50 mosquitos per day, estimate the size of the population in 10 days.
Answer:
The estimated size of the population in 10 days is of 1372 mosquitos.
Step-by-step explanation:
Population after t days:
The population after t days is given by:
[tex]P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}[/tex]
In which P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.
P(0)=574.
So
[tex]P(t) = 574e^{rt}[/tex]
P'(0)=50
[tex]P^{\prime}(t) = 574re^{rt}[/tex]
Since P'(0)=50
[tex]574r = 50[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{50}{574}[/tex]
[tex]r = 0.0871[/tex]
So
[tex]P(t) = 574e^{0.0871t}[/tex]
Estimate the size of the population in 10 days
This is P(10).
[tex]P(10) = 574e^{0.0871*10} = 1372[/tex]
The estimated size of the population in 10 days is of 1372 mosquitos.
The size of the population of mosquito follows an exponential model.
The size of the population in 10 days is 1370
The given parameters are:
[tex]\mathbf{P(0) = 574}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P'(0) = 50}[/tex]
An exponential function is represented as:
[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = P(0) \times e^r^t}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = 574 \times e^r^t}[/tex]
Differentiate
[tex]\mathbf{P'(t) = 574r}[/tex]
Substitute 0 for t
[tex]\mathbf{P'(0) = 574r}[/tex]
Substitute [tex]\mathbf{P'(0) = 50}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{50 = 574r}[/tex]
Divide both sides by 574
[tex]\mathbf{0.087 = r}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{r = 0.087 }[/tex]
The function becomes
[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = 574 \times e^r^t}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(t) = 574 \times e^{0.087t}}[/tex]
In 10 days, t = 10.
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{P(10) = 574 \times e^{0.087 \times 10}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(10) = 574 \times e^{0.87}}[/tex]
Solve
[tex]\mathbf{P(10) = 1370}[/tex]
Hence, the size of the population in 10 days is 1370

Carpet is installed in the hallways of a building. The cost of carpet and installation is $32.50 per square yard. A total length of 432.0 feet of carpet 5.0 feet wide is required. What is the total cost of carpet and installation? (Number of square feet = length in feet × width in feet)
Answer:
[tex]Total = \$7800[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Cost = \$32.50[/tex] per square yard
[tex]Length = 432.0ft[/tex]
[tex]Width = 5.0ft[/tex]
Required
Determine the cost of carpet and installation
First, calculate the area of the carpet
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
[tex]Area = 432.0ft * 5.0ft[/tex]
[tex]Area = 2160ft^2[/tex]
Convert to square yard
[tex]Area = \frac{2160yd^2}{9}[/tex]
[tex]Area = 240yd^2[/tex]
The cost is then calculated as:
[tex]Total= Area * Unit\ Cost[/tex]
[tex]Total = 240 * \$32.50[/tex]
[tex]Total = \$7800[/tex]

Answer:
1/3 = 0.3333 = 33.33% experimental probability of rolling a 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
The experimental probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes, after a number of experiments is made.
In this question:
Cube rolled 78 times.
9 appeared 26 times
26/78 = 1/3 = 0.3333 = 33.33% experimental probability of rolling a 9.

3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{3}{500} \%[/tex]
Required
Represent as fraction
To do this, we simply multiply 3/500 by 100
[tex]\frac{3}{500} \% = \frac{3}{500} * 100[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3}{500} \% = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Colbert's backyard has two trees, shown below. The height of shorter tree is 3/5 of the height of the taller tree. If the height of the shorter tree is 4 1/2 feet tall, what is the height, in feet, of the taller tree?
Answer:
The height of the taller tree is 7.5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to say that:
The height of the shorter tree is x.
The height of the taller tree is y.
The height of shorter tree is 3/5 of the height of the taller tree.
This means that [tex]x = \frac{3y}{5}[/tex]
If the height of the shorter tree is 4 1/2 feet tall, what is the height, in feet, of the taller tree?
This means that [tex]x = 4 + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{8+1}{2} = \frac{9}{2}[/tex]
We want to find y.
[tex]x = \frac{3y}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{9}{2} = \frac{3y}{5}[/tex]
[tex]6y = 45[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{45}{6}[/tex]
[tex]y = 7.5[/tex]
The height of the taller tree is 7.5 feet.
