Answer:

Heres the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the ratio of an amount we divide the amount by total number of parts in the ratio then multiply the answer by original ratio.

If the ratio of men to women is 3:2 and there are 120 men, how many women would there be?
zavuch27 [327]
There would be 80 women.
Here's the work:
120 divided by 3 = 40 
If the ratio is 3:2, there is always one less woman then men, so you subtract the 40 men in a group and you get your answer of 80

Hope I helped!! :)

According to government data, 20% of employed women have never been married. If 10 employed women are selected at random, what i
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

a) P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

b) P(X\leq 2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) +P(X=2)

P(X=0) = (10C0) (0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{10-0}= 0.107

P(X=1) = (10C1) (0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{10-1}= 0.268

P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

And replacing we got:

P(X\leq 2) = 0.107+0.268+0.302=0.678

c) For this case we want this probability:

P(X\geq 8) = P(X=8) + P(X=9) +P(X=10)

But for this case the probability of success is p =1-0.2= 0.8

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=8) = (10C8) (0.8)^8 (1-0.8)^{10-8} =0.302

P(X=9) = (10C9) (0.8)^9 (1-0.8)^{10-9} =0.268

P(X=10) = (10C10) (0.8)^{10} (1-0.8)^{10-10} =0.107

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 8) = 0.677

And replacing we got:

P(X\geq 8)=0.0000779

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".  

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Bin (n=10 ,p=0.2)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable "number of women that have never been married" , on this case we now that the distribution of the random variable is:  

X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.2)  

Part a

We want to find this probability:

P(X=2)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X\leq 2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) +P(X=2)

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=0) = (10C0) (0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{10-0}= 0.107

P(X=1) = (10C1) (0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{10-1}= 0.268

P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

And replacing we got:

P(X\leq 2) = 0.107+0.268+0.302=0.678

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X\geq 8) = P(X=8) + P(X=9) +P(X=10)

But for this case the probability of success is p =1-0.2= 0.8

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=8) = (10C8) (0.8)^8 (1-0.8)^{10-8} =0.302

P(X=9) = (10C9) (0.8)^9 (1-0.8)^{10-9} =0.268

P(X=10) = (10C10) (0.8)^{10} (1-0.8)^{10-10} =0.107

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 8) = 0.677
