6 0

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Morning flight mean 15 minutes SD = 5

30 minutes late would be 15/5 = 3 SD below the mean

z = 3

Evening mean 20 minutes being 10 more minutes late = 10/3 =3.33 below the mean

z score = 3.33

evening is more late than the AM

Suppose that 50% of all young adults prefer McDonald's to Burger King when asked to state a preference. A group of 12 young adul

ddd [48]

Answer:

a) 0.194 = 19.4% probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's

b) 0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's

c) 0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King

Step-by-step explanation:

For each young adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they prefer McDonalds, or they prefer burger king. The probability of an adult prefering McDonalds is independent from other adults. 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.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

50% of all young adults prefer McDonald's to Burger King when asked to state a preference.

This means that $p = 0.5$

12 young adults were randomly selected

This means that $n = 12$

(a) What is the probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's?

$P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 8) = C_{12,8}.(0.5)^{8}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.121$

$P(X = 9) = C_{12,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.054$

$P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.016$

$P(X = 11) = C_{12,11}.(0.5)^{11}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.003$

$P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.5)^{12}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.000$

$P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) = 0.121 + 0.054 + 0.016 + 0.003 + 0.000 = 0.194$

0.194 = 19.4% probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's

(b) What is the probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's?

$P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.054$

$P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.121$

$P(X = 5) = C_{12,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.193$

$P(X = 6) = C_{12,6}.(0.5)^{6}.(0.5)^{6} = 0.226$

$P(X = 7) = C_{12,7}.(0.5)^{7}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.193$

$P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.054 + 0.121 + 0.193 + 0.226 + 0.193 = 0.787$

0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's

(c) What is the probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King?

Since $p = 1-p = 0.5$ , this is the same as b) above.

0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King

Find the measures of two complementary angles, ÐA and ÐB, if mÐA = (7x + 4)° and mÐB = (4x + 9)°. Measure of angle A = ... Measu

Westkost [7]

Answer:

The measure of angle A is 53 degrees

The measure of angle B is 37 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the measure of the two angle.

When how angles are complementary, it means the sum of both equals 90 degrees

mathematically ;

(7x + 4) + (4x + 9) = 90

7x + 4x + 4 + 9 = 90

11x + 13 = 90

11x = 90-13

11x = 77

x = 77/11 = 7

The measure of angle A = 7x + 4 = 7(7) + 4 = 49 + 4 = 53 degrees

The measure of B = 4x + 9 = 4(7) + 9 = 28 + 9 = 37 degrees
