Answer:
Probability of at least 50 obese individuals in our sample is 0.92364 .
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a random sample of 300 adults is taken from the state of Colorado, where the rate of obesity is 19.8% .
Let X = Number of obese individuals
Firstly, X ~
For approximating binomial distribution into normal distribution, firstly we have to calculate and
.
Mean of Normal distribution, = n * p = 300 * 0.198 = 59.4
Variance of Normal distribution, = n * p * (1-p) = 300 *0.198 *0.802 = 47.64
So, now X ~ N()
The standard normal z score distribution is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
So, probability of at least 50 obese individuals in our sample = P(X >= 50)
P(X >= 50) = P(X > 49.5) {using continuity correction}
P(X > 49.5) = P( >
) = P(Z > -1.43) = P(Z < 1.43) = 0.92364
Therefore, required probability is 0.92364 .
a. The first variable is x and the second variable is y.
b. The equations are and
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The first step is to define the variables. The variables can be any two symbols, letters, characters, etc.
Here let the first variable be x and the let the second variable be y.
So the variables are defined as x and y.
Step 2:
The sum of the given variables is 12.
The first variable + the second variable = 12,
The difference between the two variables is 4.
The first variable - the second variable = 4.
Step 3:
If we add both the equations we get, and
x = 8 and y = 4.
