A bag contains 5 yellow marbles and 10 blue marbles. If a representative sample contains 2 yellow ​marbles, then how many blue m

arbles would you expect it to​ contain? Explain. Because the ratio of yellow marbles to blue marbles is blank in the​ population, the expected number of blue marbles is blank times the number of yellow marbles in the representative sample. There should be blank blue marbles.

Answer:

There will be 4 blue marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Yellow to blue marbles is in a ratio of:

5:10

the representative sample is:

2:x

simplee cross multiplication can be aplied

5x = 2*10

5x = 20

divide both sides by 5

x = 4

there should be four blue marbles

A jar contains 30 red, 30 blue, and 60
kiruha [24]

The probability of picking red button is \frac{1}{4}

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, A jar contains 30 red, 30 blue, and 60 white buttons.  

You pick one button at a random choice,  

We have to find the probability that it is red button.

Now, total number of buttons = 30 + 30 + 60 = 120 buttons.

Number of favourable cases for red button = 30 red buttons.

The probability of an event is given as:

\text { probability of a event }=\frac{\text { favourable ways to pick red }}{\text { total possiblities }}

=\frac{30}{120}=\frac{1}{4}

Thus the probability that it is red is \frac{1}{4}

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable preliminary estim
pogonyaev

Answer:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.025}{1.28})^2}=655.36  

And rounded up we have that n=656

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 80% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.80=0.20 and \alpha/2 =0.10. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=\pm 1.28

Solution to the problem

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

Since we don't have prior info for the proportion of interest we can use \hat p=0.5 as estimator. And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.025 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.025}{1.28})^2}=655.36  

And rounded up we have that n=656

The table displays the number of students in each grade at Richmond High School who will or will not be attending the amusement
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)=  0.2453 \\\\P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)=  24.53\% \\\\

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a joint probability table.

There are four different graders in a school

1. Grade Ninth

2. Grade Tenth

3. Grade Eleventh

4. Grade Twelfth

Field trip refers to the students who will attending the amusement park field trip.

No field trip refers to the students who will not be attending the amusement park field trip.

We want to find out the probability that the selected student is an eleventh grader given that the student is going on a field trip.

P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)= \frac{P( eleventh\: \: and \: \: FT)}{P(FT)}

Where P(eleventh and FT) is the probability of students who are in eleventh grade and will be going to field trip

P(eleventh\:  and \: FT) = \frac{13}{92}  \\\\P(eleventh \:  and \: FT) = 0.1413

Where P(FT) is the probability of students who will be going to field trip

P(FT) = \frac{12}{92} + \frac{9}{92} + \frac{13}{92} + \frac{19}{92}\\\\P(FT) = 0.1304 + 0.0978 + 0.1413 + 0.2065\\\\P(FT) = 0.576 \\\\

So the required probability is

P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)= \frac{P( eleventh\: \: and \: \: FT)}{P(FT)} \\\\P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)= \frac{0.1413}{0.576} \\\\P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)=  0.2453 \\\\P( eleventh\: \: |\: \: FT)=  24.53\% \\\\

Identify the range of the fuction shown in the graph
Viefleur [7K]

The answer would be B. -2 < x < 2 because if you look at the graph, the range would be left and right. So, the farthest to the left would be -2 and the farthest to the right would be 2.

It wouldn't be all real numbers.
