This year Tammy watched 60 movies. She thought that 15 of them were very good. Of the movie she watched, what percentage did she rate as very good?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

She watched in total 60 movies. Out of that total, she rated 15 of them as very good. Thus, she rated 15/60 or 1/4 or a quarter of them as very good.

To convert 1/4 into a percentage, simply divide them and you get 0.25. The percentage is the first two digits after the decimal, which is 25%.

Find the value of y when x = 45

Answers

Answer:

Y = 3√2 +4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = acosxº + b

Let's look for the values of a and b first.

Let's get values of x and y and solve simultaneously

When x= 0 ,y=10

When x = 120, y= 1

10 =acos0 + b

10 = a +b..... equation 1

1 = acos120 + b

1= -0.5a + b ..... equation 2

10 = a +b

1= -0.5a + b

10-1= a +0.5a

9 = 1.5a

9/1.5 = a

6 = a

1= -0.5a + b ..... equation 2

1 = -0.5(6) +b

1= -3 + b

1+3 = b

4 =b

So

y = acosxº + b equal to

Y = 6cosx° + 4

So value of y when x= 45 is

Y= 6cos45° +4

Y =6(√2/2) +4

Y = 3√2 +4

The value of y when x = 45 degree is,  [tex]y=3\sqrt{2}+4[/tex]

Given function is,

                            [tex]y = a cos(x)+ b[/tex]

From given table, It is observed that,

          x = 0, y = 10 and x = 90, y = 4

Substitute above values in above equation.

                          [tex]a+b=10\\\\b=4[/tex]

         [tex]a=10-b=10-4=6[/tex]

Now, our equation become,

                                [tex]y = 6 cos(x)+ 4[/tex]

Substitute x = 45 in above equation.

                  [tex]y=6cos(45)+4\\\\y=6*(\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} )+4\\\\y=3\sqrt{2} +4[/tex]

What are the domain and range of f(x) = 2|x – 4|?

Answers

Answer:

Domain: All real numbers or (negative infinity, positive infinity)

Range: [0, positive infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain; Since all values of x would work for this equation, simply any number could be plugged in. That means the domain would stretch to infinity because  there are an infinite amount of inputs and outputs

Range; Even though we have an infinite amount of domain, when we plug in a negative x, anything inside the absolute value will turn positive. Therefore, no output (y) value will ever go below zero, and we have [0, positive infinity).

The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.

So using x1 and y1 we can find the value of this constant:

[tex]x1 * y1 = k[/tex]

[tex]12 * 15 = k[/tex]

[tex]k = 180[/tex]

A basketball coach is looking over the possessions per game during last season. Assume that the possessions per game follows an unknown distribution with a mean of 56 points and a standard deviation of 12 points. The basketball coach believes it is unusual to score less than 50 points per game. To test this, she randomly selects 36 games. Use a calculator to find the probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points. Round your answer to three decimal places if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points = 0.002    

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given mean of the normal distribution = 56 points

Given standard deviation of the normal distribution = 12 points

Random sample size 'n' = 36 games

Step(ii):-

Let x⁻ be the random variable of normal distribution

Let x⁻ = 50

[tex]Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{50-56 }{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36} } }= -3[/tex]

The probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points

P( x⁻≤ 50) = P( Z≤-3)

                = 0.5 - P(-3 <z<0)

               = 0.5 -P(0<z<3)

               =  0.5 - 0.498

               = 0.002

Final answer:-

The probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points = 0.002

Answer:

56

.001

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem for Means states that the mean of any sampling distribution of the means is equal to the mean of the population distribution. The standard deviation is equal to the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size. So, the mean of this sampling distribution of the means with sample size 36 is 56 points and the standard deviation is 1236√=2 points. The z-score for 50 using the formula z=x¯¯¯−μσ is −3.

z 0.00 0.01 0.02 0.03 0.04 0.05 0.06 0.07 0.08 0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

An economist at Vanderbilt University devised a study to compare different types of online auctions. In one experiment he compared a Dutch auction to a first-place sealed bid auction. In the Dutch auction the item for sale starts at a very high price and is lowered gradually until someone finds the price low enough to buy. In the first-price sealed bid auction each bidder submits a single sealed bid before a particular deadline. After the deadline, the person with the highest bid wins. The researcher auctioned off collectible trading cards from the game Magic: The Gathering. He placed pairs of identical cards up for auction; one would go into Dutch auction and the other to the first-price sealed bid auction. He then looked at the difference in the prices he received on the pair. He repeated this for a total of 88 pairs.

[h] Assume the p-value is 0.17 (write a conclusion).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The data should be analyzed using paired samples because the economist made two measurements (samples) drawn from the same pair of identical cards. Each data point in one sample is uniquely paired to a data point in the second sample.

b. A pair is made up of two identical cards where one would go into Dutch auction and the other to the first-price sealed bid auction.

c. The explanatory variables are the types of online auction which are the Dutch auction and the first price sealed bid auction. The explanation variable here is categorical: the Dutch auction and the first price sealed bid auction.

d. The response variable which is also known as the outcome variable is prices for the 2 different auction for each pair of identical cards. This variable is quantitative.

e. Null Hypothesis in words: There is no difference in the prices obtained in the two different online auction.

Alternative hypothesis: There is a difference in the prices obtained in the two different online auction.

f. The parameter of interest in this case is the mean prices of pairs of identical cards for both auction and is assigned p.

g. Null hypothesis: p(dutch) = p(first-price sealed auction)

Alternative hypothesis: p(dutch) =/ p(first-price sealed auction)

h. Assuming the p-value is 0.17 at an assed standard 0.05 significance level, our conclusion would be to fail to reject the null hypothesis as 0.17 is greater than 0.05 or even 0.01 and we can conclude that, there is no statistically significant evidence to prove that there is a difference in the prices obtained in the two different online auction.

The sum of a number and its reciprocal is 41/20. Find the numbers. smaller value larger value

Answers

Answer:

The numbers are 5/4 and 4/5The smaller value is 4/5The larger value is 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

The reciprocal of the number will be 1/x

If the sum of the number and its reciprocal is 41/20, this can be represented as;

[tex]x+\frac{1}{x} = 41/20\\\frac{x^{2}+1}{x} = \frac{41}{20} \\20x^{2} +20 = 41x\\20x^{2} -41x+20 = 0\\[/tex]

Uisng the general formula to get x

x = -b±√b²+4ac/2a

x = 41±√41²-4(20)(20)/2(20)

x = 41±√1681-1600/40

x = 41±√81/40

x = 41±9/40

x = 50/40 or 32/40

x = 5/4 or 4/5

if the value is 5/4, the other value will be 4/5

The numbers are 5/4 and 4/5

The smaller value is 4/5

The larger value is 5/4

Answer:

a=5/4 or 4/5

Therefore, the smaller value = 4/5

The larger value = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by a

And it's reciprocal be represented by 1/a

So we have

a + 1/a = 41/20

Cross Multiply

20( a +1/a) = 41

20a +20/a =41

Find the LCM which is a

20a² + 20 = 41a

20a² + 20 - 41a =0

20a² - 41a +20 = 0

20a²-25a - 16a + 20 =0

5a(4a - 5) -4( 4a - 5) = 0

(5a - 4)(4a - 5) = 0

5a - 4 = 0

5a = 4

a = 4/5

or

4a - 5 = 0

4a =5

a = 5/4

Therefore, the number which is represented by a is

1) a = 4/5 while it's reciprocal which is 1/a is 5/4

or

2) a = 5/4 which it's reciprocal which is 1/a = 4/5

Therefore, the smaller value = 4/5

The larger value = 5/4

A door delivery florist wishes to estimate the proportion of people in his city that will purchase his flowers. Suppose the true proportion is 0.070.07. If 492492 are sampled, what is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.030.03?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.03 is 0.009.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 [tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p[/tex]

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 [tex]\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

As the sample size is large, i.e. n = 492 > 30, the central limit theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample proportion by the normal distribution.

The mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample proportion are:

[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.07\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{492}}=0.012[/tex]

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.03 as follows:

[tex]P(|\hat p-p|>0.03)=P(|\frac{\hat p-p}{\sigma_{\hat p}}|>\frac{0.03}{0.012})[/tex]

                           [tex]=P(|Z|>2.61)\\\\=1-P(|Z|\leq 2.61)\\\\=1-P(-2.61\leq Z\leq 2.61)\\\\=1-[P(Z\leq 2.61)-P(Z\leq -2.61)]\\\\=1-0.9955+0.0045\\\\=0.0090[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.03 is 0.009.

(ii) 70% of the customers insure more than one car. (iii) 20% of the customers insure a sports car. (iv) Of those customers who insure more than one car, 15% insure a sports car. Calculate the probability that a randomly selected customer insures exactly one car, and that car is not a sports car?

Answer:

P( X' ∩ Y' ) = 0.205

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X is the event that the customer insures more than one car.

Let X' is the event that the customer insures exactly one car.

Let Y is the event that customer insures a sport car.

Let Y' is the event that customer insures not a sport car.

From the given information we have

70% of customers insure more than one car.

P(X) = 0.70

20% of customers insure a sports car.

P(Y) = 0.20

Of those customers who insure more than one car, 15% insure a sports car.

P(Y | X) = 0.15

We want to find out the probability that a randomly selected customer insures exactly one car, and that car is not a sports car.

P( X' ∩ Y' ) = ?

Which can be found by

P( X' ∩ Y' ) = 1 - P( X ∪ Y )

From the rules of probability we know that,

P( X ∪ Y ) = P(X) + P(Y) - P( X ∩ Y )    (Additive Law)

First, we have to find out P( X ∩ Y )

From the rules of probability we know that,

P( X ∩ Y ) = P(Y | X) × P(X)       (Multiplicative law)

P( X ∩ Y ) = 0.15 × 0.70

P( X ∩ Y ) = 0.105

So,

P( X ∪ Y ) = P(X) + P(Y) - P( X ∩ Y )

P( X ∪ Y ) = 0.70 + 0.20 - 0.105

P( X ∪ Y ) = 0.795

Finally,

P( X' ∩ Y' ) = 1 - P( X ∪ Y )

P( X' ∩ Y' ) = 1 - 0.795

P( X' ∩ Y' ) = 0.205

Therefore, there is 0.205 probability that a randomly selected customer insures exactly one car, and that car is not a sports car.

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a 50/50 chance for the coin to land either heads or tails. Convert that to probability and it is 1/2.

The only time a coin would not be 50/50 chance is if the coin is weighted.

Answer:

1/2 is probability

becoz one side is head or one is tail

A study conducted at a certain college shows that "53%" of the school's graduates find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation. Find the probability that among 6 randomly selected graduates, at least one finds a job in his or her chosen field within a year of graduating. 0.989 0.978 0.927 0.167 0.530

Answer:

0.989

Step-by-step explanation:

For each graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation, or they do not. The probability of a graduate finding a job is independent of other graduates. So we use 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.

A study conducted at a certain college shows that "53%" of the school's graduates find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation.

This means that [tex]p = 0.53[/tex]

6 randomly selected graduates

This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]

Probability that at least one finds a job in his or her chosen field within a year of graduating:

Either none find a job, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these outcomes is 1. So

[tex]P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1[/tex]

We want [tex]P(X \geq 1)[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.53)^{0}.(0.47)^{6} = 0.011[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.011 = 0.989[/tex]
