Answer:

1 in 30

Step-by-step explanation:

1 in 6 chance Mary picks the red marble in the first place. After this there is a 1 in 5 chance her sister picks the blue one. 5 multiplied by 6 is 30.

The probability that Mary picks the red marble and her sister picks the blue marble is \frac{1}{30} .

<h3>Concept:</h3>
  • Firstly, we need to find the probability of Mary picking a red marble from the 6 marbles.
  • Secondly. we need to find the probability of Mary's sister picking a blue marble from the 5 left marbles.
  • As both are mutually exclusive events , the required probability is the multiplication of both above.

<h3>How to solve the given question?</h3>
  • P(A) = Mary picking a red marble out of 6 marbles = \frac{1}{6}
  • P(B) = Mary's sister picking a blue marble out 5 left marbles = \frac{1}{5}
  • P(E) = Required probability = P(A) × P(B) = \frac{1}{6} × \frac{1}{5} =

Thus, the probability that Mary picks the red marble and her sister picks the blue marble is \frac{1}{30} .

What is x+y=10;y=x+10
Alenkasestr [34]

[ Answer ]

\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ 0, \ Y \ = \ 10}}

[ Explanation ]

  • System Of Equations \bold{\left \{ {X \ + \ Y \ = \ 10} \atop {Y \ + \ X \ = \ 10}} \right.}

-----------------------------------

  • [Substitute] Y = X + 10

\bold{\begin{bmatrix}x+x+10=10\end{bmatrix}}

  • Isolate x for x + x + 10 = 10: x = 0

For y = 10

Substitute x = 0

Y = 0 + 10

0 + 10 = 10

y = 10

  • Solutions

X = 0

Y = 10

\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}

Combine like terms.

The correct answer should be A because you have to have a common denominator in order to solve so you take 5/6x and 4/6x and solve.

1. A researcher tested the diastolic blood pressure of 15 marathon runners and 15 non-runners. The mean for the runners was 75.9
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Calculated value t =0.0109 < t = 1.701 at 28 degrees of freedom at 0.05 level of significance.

running a good way to lower a person's blood pressure

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step :1</u>

A researcher tested the diastolic blood pressure of 15 marathon runners and 15 non-runners

The first sample size is n₁ =15

The second sample size is n₂ =15

Given data the mean for the runners was 75.9 mm Hg with an SS of 1,500

The mean of the first sample x₁⁻ = 75.9 mm

The mean of the second sample x₂⁻   = 80.3mm

The standard deviation of the first sample (S₁) = 1,500

The standard deviation of the second sample (S₂) = 8

<u>Step 2</u>:-

<u>Null hypothesis </u>:- H₀ :  x₁⁻ = x₂⁻

<u>Alternative hypothesis</u>:- H₁ :  x₁⁻ ≠ x₂⁻

<u>level of significance</u> :- α= 0.05

The test statistic t = \frac{x_{1}^- -x_{2}^-  }{S\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1} } +\frac{1}{n_{2} } } }

where S^{2} =\frac{n_{1}S_{1} ^2+n_{2}S_{2} ^2 }{n_{1}+n_{2}-2}

n₁ =15 ,n₂ =15 x₁⁻ = 75.9 mm ,x₂⁻   = 80.3mm and (S₁) = 1,500 and (S₂) = 8

substitute all values in above equation, we get

S^{2} =\frac{15X(1500) ^2+15X(8) ^2 }{15+15-2}

s^2 = 1,205,391.42

Standard deviation = √1,205,391.42 = 1097.903

<u>Step 3</u>:-

The test statistic

                 t = \frac{x_{1}^- -x_{2}^-  }{S\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1} } +\frac{1}{n_{2} } } }

x₁⁻ = 75.9 mm ,x₂⁻   = 80.3mm, n₁ =15 ,n₂ =15 and S = 1097.903

The test statistic value t = -0.01097

modulus t = 0.0109

Calculated value t =0.0109

The degrees of freedom γ=n₁+n₂ -2 = 15+15 -2 =28

From t- distribution table

From tabulated value t = 1.701 at 28 degrees of freedom at 0.05 level of significance.

Calculated value t =0.0109 < t = 1.701 at 28 degrees of freedom at 0.05 level of significance.

Therefore we accepted null hypothesis.
