Suppose that we've decided to test Clara, who works at the Psychic Center, to see if she really has psychic abilities. While tal

king to her on the phone, we'll thoroughly shuffle a standard deck of 52 cards (which is made up of 13 hearts, 13 spades, 13 diamonds, and 13 clubs) and draw one card at random. We'll ask Clara to name the suit (heart, spade, diamond, or club) of the card we drew. After getting her guess, we'll return the card to the deck, thoroughly shuffle the deck, draw another card, and get her guess for the suit of this second card. We'll repeat this process until we've drawn a total 14 of cards and gotten her suit guesses for each.
Assume that Clara is not clairvoyant, that is, assume that she randomly guesses on each card.
(a) Estimate the number of cards in the sample for which Clara correctly guesses the suit by giving the mean of the relevant distribution (that is, the expectation of the relevant random variable). Do not round your response.
(b) Quantify the uncertainty of your estimate by giving the standard deviation of the distribution. Round your response to at least three decimal places.

Answer:

A) 3.5

B) 1.6202

Step-by-step explanation:

In binomial distribution,

E(X) = np and Var(X) = npq while

SD (X) = √(npq)

Where n is number of cards drawn

p is probability of getting one particular shape

q = 1-p

So from the question, n = 14

p = 13/52 = 1/4

q = 1-(1/4) = 3/4

So;

A) E(x) = np = 14 x 1/4 = 3.5

B) SD (X) = √(npq) = √(14 x 1/4 x 3/4) = √(42/16) = √2.625 = 1.6202

Suppose that the world's current oil reserves is R = 1820 billion barrels. If, on average, the total reserves
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

A. R = -18t + 1,820

B. 1,568 billions of barrels

C. approximately 101.11 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To make our equation, we'll use the form R = mt + b. M represents how many billion barrels of oil are being lost each year, which we know is 18 billion. So -18 will be our m. B is how many total barrels of oil there are, which is 1,820. So 1,820 will be our b. Now the equation looks like this:

R = -18t + 1,820

We can use this equation to answer Part B.

Replace the t with 14:

R = -18(14) + 1,820

Now solve for R:

R = -18(14) + 1,820

R = -252 + 1,820

R = 1,568

14 years from now, there will be 1,568 billions of barrels left.

To solve part C, we need to find how many years it will take for all of the oil to be used up. After it's all used up, the total amount of oil will be 0, so we can replace R with 0 and then solve for t:

0 = -18t + 1,820

Subtract 1,820 from both sides to isolate -18t:

0 - 1,820 = -18t + 1,820 - 1,820

-1,820 = -18t

Divide both sides by -18 to isolate the t:

-1,820/-18 = -18t/-18

101.11 = t

After approximately 101.11 years, all of the oil will be used up.

A study shows that, over the course of a lifetime, the average salary of college graduates is greater than the average salary of
iogann1982 [59]
Answer: The word "ensures" implies that it is certain.

In the case of the study, they simply found that the average salary is greater for college graduates. This doesn't mean that in every case the college graduate makes more money.

The problem is the word "ensures". Our study doesn't show certainty only a general pattern.
