Some parts of California are particularly earthquake-prone. Suppose that in one metropolitan area, of all homeowners are insured against earthquake damage. Four homeowners are to be selected at random; let denote the number among the four who have earthquake insurance.
1. Find the probability distribution of X. [Hint: Let S denote a homeowner who has insurance and one who does not. Then one possible outcome is SFSS, with probability (.25)(.75)(.25)(.25) and associated X value 3. There are 15 other outcomes].
2. What is the most likely value for X?
3. What is the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance?

Answer:

[tex]P(X = x) = ^4C_x * 0.25^x * 0.75^{4-x}[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 1[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.2617[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 4[/tex]

[tex]p = 25\%[/tex]

Solving (a): The probability distribution of x

We have:

[tex]n = 4[/tex]

[tex]p = 25\%[/tex] [tex]= 0.25[/tex]

The probability of not having earthquake insurance (q) is:

[tex]q = 1 - p[/tex]

[tex]q = 1 - 0.25[/tex] [tex]= 0.75[/tex]

If x has insurance, then n - x do not.

The distribution follows a binomial pattern. So, the probability distribution is:

[tex]P(X = x) = ^nC_x * 0.25^x * 0.75^{n-x}[/tex]

Substitute 4 for n

[tex]P(X = x) = ^4C_x * 0.25^x * 0.75^{4-x}[/tex]

Solving (b): The most likely value of x i.e. The mean

We have:

[tex]n = 4[/tex] and

[tex]p = 25\%[/tex] [tex]= 0.25[/tex]

[tex]Mean = np[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 4 * 0.25[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 1[/tex]

Solving (c): At least 2 of 4 selected have earthquake insurance.

This is calculated as

[tex]Pr = P(x = 2) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 4)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = ^4C_x * 0.25^x * 0.75^{4-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=2) = ^4C_2 * 0.25^2 * 0.75^{4-2}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=2) = 6 * 0.25^2 * 0.75^2 = 0.2109375[/tex]

[tex]P(X=3) = ^4C_3 * 0.25^3 * 0.75^{4-3}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=3) = 4 * 0.25^3 * 0.75 = 0.046875[/tex]

[tex]P(X=4) = ^4C_4 * 0.25^4 * 0.75^{4-4}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=4) = 1 * 0.25^4 * 1= 0.00390625[/tex]

So:

[tex]Pr = P(x = 2) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 4)[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.2109375 + 0.046875 + 0.00390625[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.26171875[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.2617[/tex] --- approximated

Find the amplitude of the solution
y=-4sin1/3x

Answers

Answer:

c. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The amplitude of a graph is basically the distance from the top of the wavelength to the bottom of the wave length. When dealing with the equation itself the amplitude is represented by the initial number being multiplied to the sin cos or tan. Since the amplitude is just the distance and direction does not matter, this value is always positive. Therefore, in this scenario, the amplitude would be 4.

25% of Mr. Foster's class chose an amber background for their school picture. If 6 students chose an amber background, how many students are in Mr. Foster's class?

Answers

Answer:

24 students

Step-by-step explanation:

25% of a hundred is one-fourth and because there are six students in a fourth of the whole we are multiplying four and six. 6x 4 is 24.

The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total

value and multiplying by 100.

Required percentage value = a

total value = b

Percentage = a/b x 100

25% = 6 students

100% = 24 students

The total number of students in Mr. Foster's class is 24.

What is a percentage?

The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total

value and multiplying by 100.

Required percentage value = a

total value = b

Percentage = a/b x 100

Example:

50% = 50/100 = 1/2

25% = 25/100 = 1/4

20% = 20/100 = 1/5

10% = 10/100 = 1/10

We have,

Number of students who chose an amber background = 6

25% of Mr. Foster's class chose an amber background for their school picture.

This means,

25% = 6

The total number of students = 100%

Now,

25% = 6 students

Multiply 4 on both sides.

4 x 25% = 4 x 6 students

100% = 24 students

Thus,

The total number of students in Mr. Foster's class is 24.

We can use two points from the table to find our slope.

Remember, the slope formula is [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]. We can use the points (-1,50) and (-2,60). Let's substitute the values into the formula.

Answers

Answer:

B. x = 4 and x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, expand the equation

(x + 3)² = 49

(x + 3)(x + 3) = 49

x² + 6x + 9 = 49

Subtract 49 from both sides

x² + 6x -40 = 0

Factor

(x + 10)(x - 4) = 0

Solve

x + 10 = 0

x = -10

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

So, the correct answer is B. x = 4 and x = -10

Answer:

x = 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x=0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

-9.5x+0.81=-2.99find x

Combine first value by 0.81:

-9.5+0.81=-2.99-19x/2+0.81=-2.99

Subtract 0.81 both from sides:

-19x/2+0.81-0.81=-2.99-0.81

Simplifly -19x/2:

-19x/2=-3.8

Multiply all terms by similar term:

2·19x/2=2·3.8

Divide both terms by -7.6:

-19x/-19-7.6/19=0.4

Therefore, x=0.4.

Answers

Answer:

Noah takes 20 minutes to get to his house, that is, 10 minutes less than Charlotte.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Charlotte walks home from school every day at a rate of 4 miles per hour and it takes her 30-minutes to reach home, while her brother, Noah, runs home from the same school every day at a rate of 6 miles per hour, to determine how many fewer minutes does it take Noah than Charlotte to reach home from school each day the following calculation must be performed:

Charlotte:

4 mph = 4/60 = 0.0666 miles per minute

0.0666 x 30 = 2 miles

So the distance from the school to her house is 2 miles

Noah:

6/60 = 0.1 mile per minute

2 / 0.1 = 20

Thus, Noah takes 20 minutes to get to his house, that is, 10 minutes less than Charlotte.
