Step-by-step explanation:
A large bag of cashews weighs 9 1/4 pounds. One serving is 1/5 pound. How many servings are in the bag.
Answer as a mixed number = 46 & 1/4
Answer as a decimal = 46.25
===============================================
Work Shown:
9 & 1/4 = 9 + 1/4 = 9 + 0.25 = 9.25
1/5 = 0.2
A bag of cashews weighs 9.25 pounds and one serving is 0.2 pounds.
Let x be the number of servings
1 serving = 0.2 pounds
x servings = 0.2x pounds after multiplying both sides by x
0.2x pounds represents the total bag's weight so,
0.2x = 9.25
x = 9.25/0.2
x = 46.25 answer in decimal form
x = 46 + 0.25
x = 46 + 1/4
x = 46 & 1/4 answer in mixed number form
This means we have 46 full servings plus an additional 1/4 of a serving.

Answer:
a
[tex]P(U |D ) = 0.198 [/tex]
b
[tex]P(O\ n \ B) = 0.188[/tex]
c
[tex]P(O | B) = 0.498 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of deaths is mathematically represented as
[tex]T = 16 + 23 + \cdots + 16[/tex]
[tex]T =623 [/tex]
The total number of deaths in 1996 - 2000 is mathematically represented as
[tex]T_a = 16 + 23+ \cdots + 30[/tex]
[tex]T_a = 235 [/tex]
The total number of deaths in 2001 - 2005 is mathematically represented as
[tex]T_b = 17 + 16 + \cdots + 23[/tex]
[tex]T_b = 206 [/tex]
The total number of deaths in 2006 - 2010 is mathematically represented as
[tex]T_c = 15 + 17 + \cdots + 16[/tex]
[tex]T_d = 182 [/tex]
Generally the the probability that it would occur under the tree given that the death was after 2000 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(U |D ) = \frac{P(A \ n\ U )}{P(A)}[/tex]
Here [tex]P(A \ n\ U )[/tex] represents the probability that it was after 2000 and it was under the tree and this is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(A \ n\ U ) = \frac{Z}{ T} [/tex]
Here Z is the total number of death under the tree after 2000 and it is mathematically represented as
[tex]Z = 35 + 42[/tex]
=> [tex]Z = 77 [/tex]
=> [tex]P(A \ n\ U ) = \frac{77}{ 623} [/tex]
=>
Also
[tex]P(A)[/tex] is the probability of the death occurring after 2000 and this is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(A) = \frac{T_b + T_c}{ T}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(A) = \frac{ 206+ 182}{623}[/tex]
=>
So
[tex]P(U |D ) = \frac{\frac{77}{ 623} }{ \frac{ 206+ 182}{623}}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(U |D ) = 0.198 [/tex]
Generally the probability that the death was from camping or being outside and was before 2001 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(O | B) = \frac{T_z}{ T}[/tex]
Here [tex]T_z[/tex] is the total number of death outside / camping before 2001 and the value is 117
So
[tex]P(O \ n \ B) = \frac{117}{623}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(O\ n \ B) = 0.188[/tex]
Generally the probability that the death was from camping or being outside given that it was before 2001 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(O | B) = \frac{ P( O \ n \ B)}{ P(B)}[/tex]
Here [tex]P(B)[/tex] is the probability that it was before 2001 , this is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(B ) = \frac{T_a}{T}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(B ) = \frac{235}{623}[/tex]
So
[tex]P(O | B) = \frac{ \frac{117}{623}}{ \frac{235}{623}}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(O | B) = 0.498 [/tex]
1. In 1995, the average level of mercury uptake in wading birds in the Everglades was 15 parts per million. If we assume that the distribution of mercury uptake has a standard deviation of 1 part per million, and a current sample of 25 wading birds has an average of 14.6 parts per million. Which null and alternative hypotheses would be used to test that the level of mercury uptake in the Everglades has decreased since 1995?
Answer:
We reject H₀, we find that the current level of mercury uptake in the Everglades has decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to test the current wading bird average 14,6 vs the 1995 average. As sample mean is 14,6 and population mean is 15 we are going to check test is of one tail (left tail test)
Test Hypothesis:
Null hypothesis H₀ μ = μ₀
Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ < μ₀
Sample size 25 then n < 30 we will use t-student table
Population mean : μ₀ = 15 ppm
sample mean : μ = 14,6 ppm
sample standard deviation: s = 1 ppm
Sample size n : 25
degrees of freedom df = n - 1 df = 24
We will develop the test for CI 90% then α = 10% α = 0,1 α/2 = 0,05
For that values in t student table we find:
t(c) = 1,711 by symmetry t(c) = - 1,711
To compute ts
t(s) = ( μ - μ₀ ) / s/√n
t(s) = 14,6 - 15 / 1 /√25
t(s) = - 0,4*5 / 1
t(s) = - 2
Comparing t(c)and t(s)
|t(s)| > |t(c) | and t(s) < t(c) -2 < -1,711
Therefore t(s) in in the rejection region, we reject H₀

3. How many solutions are there to the
equation 2x^2 - 3x +12=0? Tell how
you know.
Answer:
If you're talking about solutions in general (real and imaginary solutions), there is 2, because the fundamental theorem of algebra says that the number of roots of any polynomial is the degree if it's highest power, which is 2.
If you're talking about only real solutions, there is 0. To show that, we can take the discriminant (b^2-4ac) part of the quadratic equation, and plug in the know values. We then get:
(-3)^2-4*2*12
=9-96
=-87
Remember, the discriminant will be taken the square root. Since this is negative, the answer will be imaginary. Therefore, there is no real solution.

c) Suppose that X , Y , and Z are independent, with a common variance of 5 . Then,
Cov(2X+Y,3X−4Z)=
Answer:
a = -6
Cov (2X+Y, 3X-4Z) = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Key points:
Cov (aX, bY) = a·b·Cov (X, Y)Cov (X, X) = V (X) Cov (X, a) = 0If X and Y are independent then Cov (X, Y) = 0.Cov(2X, -3Y+2) = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
Cov (2X, -3Y) + Cov (2X, 2) = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
(2)⋅(-3)⋅Cov (X, Y) + 0 = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
-6⋅Cov (X, Y) + 0 = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
⇒ a = -6.
(c)
Suppose that X, Y, and Z are independent, with a common variance of 5, i.e. V (X) = V (Y) = V (Z) = 5
Cov (2X+Y, 3X-4Z) = Cov (2X, 3X) + Cov (2X, -4Z) + Cov (Y, 3X) + Cov (Y, -4Z)
= 6⋅Cov (X, X) - 8⋅Cov (X, Z) + 3⋅Cov (Y, X) - 4⋅Cov (Y, Z)
= (6 × 5) - 0 + 0 - 0
= 30
Thus, the value of Cov (2X+Y, 3X-4Z) is 30.
The value of a = -6. And, Cov (2X+Y, 3X-4Z) = 30.
Calculation of the value of a and cov:Since
Cov (aX, bY) = a·b·Cov (X, Y)
Cov (X, X) = V (X)
Cov (X, a) = 0
In the case when X and Y are independent so Cov (X, Y) = 0.
Now
Cov(2X, -3Y+2) = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
Cov (2X, -3Y) + Cov (2X, 2) = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
(2)⋅(-3)⋅Cov (X, Y) + 0 = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
-6⋅Cov (X, Y) + 0 = a⋅Cov (X,Y)
a = -6.
(c)
here
Suppose that X, Y, and Z are independent, with a common variance of 5, i.e.
V (X) = V (Y) = V (Z) = 5
So,
Cov (2X+Y, 3X-4Z) = Cov (2X, 3X) + Cov (2X, -4Z) + Cov (Y, 3X) + Cov (Y, -4Z)
= 6⋅Cov (X, X) - 8⋅Cov (X, Z) + 3⋅Cov (Y, X) - 4⋅Cov (Y, Z)
= (6 × 5) - 0 + 0 - 0
= 30
Thus, the value of Cov (2X+Y, 3X-4Z) is 30.

The relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents is
Answer:
The relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents is 3.11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the events as follows:
C = Cooper County resident
B = Boone County resident
G = graduate
NG = non-graduate
The information provided is summarized as follows:
G NG Total
C 18 82 100

Compute the relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents as follows:
[tex]\text{Relative Risk}=\frac{\text{Graduates in Boone County}}{\text{Graduates in Cooper County}}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{28/50}{18/100}\\\\=\frac{28}{50}\times \frac{100}{18}\\\\=3.11111\\\\\approx 3.11[/tex]
Thus, the relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents is 3.11.
The relative risk of remaining a college graduate for Boon County residents in comparison to Cooper County residents would be 0.500
Relative risk:Relative risk is used in the statistical analysis of the data of ecological, cohort, medical, and intervention studies, to estimate the strength of the association between exposures (treatments or risk factors) and outcomes. Mathematically, it is the incidence rate of the outcome in the exposed group.
The relative risk is calculated by dividing the probability of an event for group 1 divided by the probability of an event occurring for group 2.
