The National Safety Council publishes information about automobile accidents in Accident Facts. According to that document, the probability is .40 that a traffic fatality involves an intoxication or alcohol-impaired driver or nonoccupant. In eight traffic fatalities, find the probability that the number which involve an intoxicated or alcohol-impaired driver or nonoccupant is

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{8,x}.(0.4)^{x}.(0.6)^{8-x}[/tex]

In which x is the number of which we want to find the probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each traffic fatality, there are only two possible outcomes. EIther it involved an intoxicated or alcohol-impaired driver or nonoccupant, or it didn't. Traffic fatalities are independent of other traffic fatalities, which means that the binomial probability distribution to solve this 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.

The probability is .40 that a traffic fatality involves an intoxication or alcohol-impaired driver or nonoccupant.

This means that [tex]p = 0.4[/tex]

Eight traffic fatalities

This means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]

Find the probability that the number which involve an intoxicated or alcohol-impaired driver or nonoccupant is

This is P(X = x), in which x is the number of which we want to find the probability. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{8,x}.(0.4)^{x}.(0.6)^{8-x}[/tex]

Answer 2

Based on the binomial probability principle, the probability involving the number of non-occupant is [tex] P(x = k) = 8Ck \times 0.40^{k} \times 0.60^{8-k} [/tex]

Let :

Number of alcohol - impaired or non-occupant = kNumber of trials, n = 8Probability of success, p = 0.40q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.40 = 0.60

Using the binomial probability relation :

[tex] P(x = x) = nCx \times p^{x} \times q^{n-x} [/tex]

x = k

Substituting the values into the relation :

[tex] P(x = k) = nCk \times 0.40^{k} \times 0.60^{n-k} [/tex]

Hence, the required probability expression is [tex] P(x = k) = 8Ck \times 0.40^{k} \times 0.60^{8-k} [/tex]

Together, Dien and Jane can eat 2/3 of a pizza in 4 seconds. How long would it take each of them to eat the whole pizza alone if Jane can eat a pizza 5 seconds faster than Dien?

Answers

Answer:

Dien - 15 seconds, Jane - 10 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Together:

2/3 of pizza ⇒ 4 secondsFull pizza ⇒ 4 ÷ 2/3 = 6 seconds

Dien needs  x seconds to eat pizza

Jane needs  x - 5 seconds to eat pizza

In one second, Dien can eat 1/x, Jane can eat 1/(x - 5), together 1/6 of a pizza

1/x + 1/(x - 5) = 1/6x(x - 5) = 6(x + x - 5)x² - 5x - 12x + 30 = 0x² - 17x + 30 = 0(x - 15)(x - 2) = 0x = 15 (x = 2 is discounted as not realistic)

Dien can eat a pizza in 15 seconds, Jane can eat a pizza in 10 seconds

A water balloon was launched into the top of the hill 38 feet above the ground

Answers

Answer: -71.104 ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:So you need to know how fast the balloon is moving when it hits this person's head. velocity is based on time. So you need the time that it hits this person's head. You can get time from the position equation. Because the balloon hits this person's head 6 feet from the ground, you know that the final position is at 6 so you plug that into the position equation and solve for t. You look and see what the appropriate t value is and plug it into the velocity equation and see what the answer is.

6=-16t^2+40t+60

0=-16t^2+40t+54

plug in those values into the quadratic formula or your calculator and you get:

t = -.972

or

t = 3.472

since you can't have negative time, the other answer must be it.

So you then plug it in and solve.

v(3.472) = -32(3.472) + 40

which is approximately -71.104 ft/sec

or if they just want speed, 71.104 ft/sec. (remember, speed is velocity without direction)

The difference between two numbers is 4. The sum of the smaller number and three times the larger number is 36. What are the two numbers?

Answers

Answer:

The two numbers are 6 and 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to form equations. With the given informations, let x be the larger number and y be the smaller number, the equations will be :

x - y = 4

3x + y = 36

Next, you have to solve the simultaneous equations :

x - y = 4 ---------- (1)

3x + y = 36 ------- (2)

(2) + (1)

3x + y + x - y = 36 + 4

4x = 40

x = 10

Substitute x = 10 into (2)

3(10) + y = 36

30 + y = 36

y = 36 - 30

y = 6

ТDaP is a booster shot that prevents Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis in adults and adolescents. It should be administered every 8 years in order for it to remain effective. A random sample of 500 people living in a town that experienced a pertussis outbreak this year were divided into two groups. Group 1 was made up of 132 individuals who had not had the TDaP booster in the past 8 years, and Group 2 consisted of 368 individuals who had. In Group 1, 15 individuals caught pertussis during the outbreak, and in Group 2, 11 individuals caught pertussis. Is there evidence to suggest that the proportion of individuals who caught pertussis and were not up to date on their booster shot is higher than those that were?

Alexis is going to Vegas for the weekend! She decides to try her hand at a new game that Casino QuickCash is promoting. For this game, you pay $6 to play. A dealer shuffles and then randomly draws a card from a standard deck of 52 cards. If the card drawn is a diamond, Alexis wins nothing. If the card drawn is an even-numbered card (2,4,6,8, or 10) from the remaining three decks, Alexis wins $8. Otherwise, Alexis wins $12. a) Alexis's expected winnings per game is (rounded to the nearest cent):

Answers

Answer:

$10.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount that can be won by Alexis ( xi ) = $0, $8 , $12

probability ( pi )

P( $0 ) = 13 / 52 = 1 / 4

P( $8 ) = 15 / 39   ( given that she wins this when an even number is drawn from three remaining decks )

P ( $12 ) = 1 - 15/39 = 24 / 39

a) Alexis expected winnings per game

= ∑ xi * pi = ( 0 * 1/4 ) +  ( 8 * 15/39 ) + ( 12 * 24 / 39 )

                = $0 + ( 120 / 39 ) + ( 288 / 39 )  = $10.46
