Past records indicate that the probability of online retail orders that turn out to be fraudulent is 0.08. Suppose that, on a gi

ven day, 20 online retail orders are placed. Assume that the number of online retail orders that turn out to be fraudulent is distributed as a binomial random variable, what is the probability that two or more online retail orders will turn out to be fraudulent

Answer:

The probability that there are 2 or more fraudulent online retail orders in the sample is 0.483.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this with a binomial random variable, with sample size n=20 and probability of success p=0.08.

The probability of k online retail orders that turn out to be fraudulent in the sample is:

P(x=k)=\dbinom{n}{k}p^k(1-p)^{n-k}=\dbinom{20}{k}\cdot0.08^k\cdot0.92^{20-k}

We have to calculate the probability that 2 or more online retail orders that turn out to be fraudulent. This can be calculated as:

P(x\geq2)=1-[P(x=0)+P(x=1)]\\\\\\P(x=0)=\dbinom{20}{0}\cdot0.08^{0}\cdot0.92^{20}=1\cdot1\cdot0.189=0.189\\\\\\P(x=1)=\dbinom{20}{1}\cdot0.08^{1}\cdot0.92^{19}=20\cdot0.08\cdot0.205=0.328\\\\\\\\P(x\geq2)=1-[0.189+0.328]\\\\P(x\geq2)=1-0.517=0.483

The probability that there are 2 or more fraudulent online retail orders in the sample is 0.483.

What is the population standard deviation of this data set?*
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

C)  2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1:  Find mean of data set

2+4+4+5+7+8 = 30

30/6 = 5

Mean = 5

step 2: subtract each data value from the mean and square it

5-2 = 3;   3² = 9

5-4 = 1;   1² = 1

5-4 = 1;   1² = 1

5-5 = 0;   0² = 0

5-7 = -2;   (-2²) = 4

5-8 = -3;   (-3²) = 9

Add the squared results:

9+1+1+0+4+9 = 24

Divide 24 by 6 to get the Variance of 4

Take the square root of the Variance to get the Standard Deviation

\sqrt{4} = 2

Find the least common multiple of these two expressions. 15x^7y^3u^8 and 6y^4u^5
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

30x^7y^4u^8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given two expressions 15x^7y^3u^8 and

6y^4u^5

Now we need to find out least common multiple of these two expressions.

First we need to find out what is common factor of both expressions. 15x^7y^3u^8 and

6y^4u^5

Least common multiple means find the expression which can be divided by both expressions.

15 and 6 both goes into 30

so 30 is part of LCM (least common multiple )

Now pickup the highest exponent of each variable.

So we get x^7y^4u^8

Hence required least common multiple is 30x^7y^4u^8
