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]

Step-by-step explanation:
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.
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
2
.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
-3.0 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a number and its reciprocal is 41/20. Find the numbers. smaller value larger value
Answer:
The numbers are 5/4 and 4/5The smaller value is 4/5The larger value is 5/4Step-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

what solid 3D object is produced by rotating the triangle about line m with a height of 8 and radius 4
Answer:
The diagram of the question is missing, I found a matching diagram, and it is attached to this answer
The 3D object produced is a cone with height 8 and diameter 8 (radius 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
A 3 dimensional solid figure can be formed when a 2 dimensional object is rotated about a line without displacing the object.
when the object in the diagram is rotated about line m, the rotation forms an object with a circular base of diameter 8 units (radius 4) from the base of the triangle and height 8 units, and the 3D object formed is called a cone.
Find a formula for the general term an of the sequence, assuming that the pattern of the first few terms continues. (Assume that n begins with 1.) 1, 1 3 , 1 5 , 1 7 , 1 9 , ...
Answer:
The general term for the sequence can be given by the following formula:
[tex]a_n=2\,n+9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If the sequence you typed starts with first term 11 and continues with terms 13, 15, 17, 19, We understand that the sequence is formed by adding 2 units to the previous term. So we are in the case of an arithmetic sequence with constant difference (d) = 2, and with first term 11.
Therefore, the nth term of this arithmetic sequence can be expressed by using the general form for an arithmetic sequence as:
[tex]a_n=a_1\,+\,(n-1)\,d\\a_n=11\,+\,(n-1)\,2\\a_n=11+2\,n-2\\a_n=2\,n+9[/tex]

Stephn says that the numbers 38 and 40 are relatively prime. explain why he is incorrect in making this statement.
Answer:
When you say that two numbers are relatively prime, it means that both numbers do not have a common factor except 1. Stephen is incorrect because 38 and 40 are both multiples of 2.
Answer:
Prime numbers are number that has its factors to be 1 and itself
38 and 40 are not prime because they have more than one factor
38 = { 1 , 2 , 19 , 38} and
40 = { 1 , 2 , 4 , 5 , 8 , 10 , 20 , 40 }
This make his statement incorrect.
Hope this helps.
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME ASAP PLEASE!!!
Answer:
38 units
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the perimeter of the shaded figure be finding out the number of unit lengths we have along the boundary of the given figure.
Thus, see attachment below for the number of units of each length of the figure that we have counted.
The perimeter of the figure = sum of all the lengths = 7 + 7 + 10 + 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 38
Perimeter of the shaded figure = 38 units
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.
[a] Explained why the data should be analyzed using paired samples as opposed to two independent samples.
[b] What makes a pair?
[c] What is the explanatory variable? Is it categorical or quantitative?
[d] What is the response variable? Is it categorical or quantitative?
[e] State the relevant hypotheses in words:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
[f] Define the parameter of interest and give the symbol that should be assigned to it.
[g] State the relevant hypotheses in symbols (using a parameter):
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
[h] Assume the p-value is 0.17 (write a conclusion).
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.

Find the value of y when x = 45
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]

Let x1 = 12, y1 = 15, and y2 = 3. Let y vary inversely with x. Find x2.
Answer:
x2 = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
If the variables x and y are inversely proportional, the product x * y is a constant.
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]
Now, we can use the same constant to find x2:
[tex]x2 * y2 = k[/tex]
[tex]x2 * 3 = 180[/tex]
[tex]x2 = 180 / 3 = 60[/tex]
So the value of x2 is 60.

[tex](x - \sqrt{3})^{2}*(x - (-2)) = (x - \sqrt{3})^{2}*(x + 2) = (x^{2} -2x\sqrt{3} + 3)*(x + 2) = x^{3} + 2x^{2} - 2x^{2}\sqrt{3} - 4x\sqrt{3} + 3x + 6[/tex]
Since [tex]\sqrt{3} = 1.73[/tex]
[tex]x^{3} + 2x^{2} - 3.46x^{2} - 6.93x + 3x + 6 = x^{3} - 1.46x^{2} - 3.93x + 6[/tex]
The polynomial is [tex]x^{3} - 1.46x^{2} - 3.93x + 6[/tex]

Answer:
1) A = 0.79
B = 0.4708
2) CI = (0.7728, 0.8072)
3) CI = (0.4481, 0.4935)
b. It appears that the proportion of adults who feel this way in country A is more than those in country B.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Sample proportions for both Population A and B
For country A:
Sample size,n = 1500
Sample proportion = [tex] \frac{1185}{1500} = 0.79 [/tex]
For Country B:
Sample size,n = 1302
Sample proportion = [tex] \frac{613}{1302} = 0.4708 [/tex]
2) Confidence interval for country A:
Given:
Mean,x = 1185
Sample size = 1500
Sample proportion, p = 0.79
q = 1 - 0.79 = 0.21
Using z table,
90% confidence interval, [tex] Z _\alpha /2 = 1.64 [/tex]
Confidence interval, CI:
[tex] \frac{p +/- Z_\alpha_/2}{\sqrt{(p * q)/n}} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{0.79 - 1.64}{\sqrt{(0.79 * 0.21)/1500}}, \frac{0.79 + 1.64}{\sqrt{(0.79 * 0.21)/1500}} [/tex]
[tex] CI = (0.7728, 0.8072) [/tex]
3) Confidence interval for country A:
Given:
Mean,x = 613
Sample size = 1302
Sample proportion, p = 0.4708
q = 1 - 0.4708 = 0.5292
Using z table,
90% confidence interval, [tex] Z _\alpha /2 = 1.64 [/tex]
Confidence interval, CI:
[tex] \frac{p +/- Z_\alpha_/2}{\sqrt{(p * q)/n}} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{0.4708 - 1.64}{\sqrt{(0.4708 * 0.5292)/1302}}, \frac{0.4708 + 1.64}{\sqrt{(0.4708 * 0.5295)/1302}} [/tex]
[tex] CI = (0.4481, 0.4935) [/tex]
From both confidence interval, we could see that that the proportion of adults who feel this way in country A is more than those in country B.

Question:
An insurance company examines its pool of auto insurance customers and gathers the following information: (i) All customers insure at least one car. (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.
