Suppose the number of children in a household has a binomial distribution with parameters n=12n=12 and p=50p=50%. Find the proba

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a) 20.95% probability of a household having 2 or 5 children.

b) 7.29% probability of a household having 3 or fewer children.

c) 19.37% probability of a household having 8 or more children.

d) 19.37% probability of a household having fewer than 5 children.

e) 92.71% probability of a household having more than 3 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this problem, we have that:

$n = 12, p = 0.5$

(a) 2 or 5 children

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

$P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161$

$P(X = 5) = C_{12,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.1934$

$p = P(X = 2) + P(X = 5) = 0.0161 + 0.1934 = 0.2095$

20.95% probability of a household having 2 or 5 children.

(b) 3 or fewer children

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{12} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{11} = 0.0029$

$P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161$

$P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.0537$

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0002 + 0.0029 + 0.0161 + 0.0537 = 0.0729$

7.29% probability of a household having 3 or fewer children.

(c) 8 or more children

$P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)$

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

$P(X = 8) = C_{12,8}.(0.5)^{8}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.1208$

$P(X = 9) = C_{12,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.0537$

$P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.0161$

$P(X = 11) = C_{12,11}.(0.5)^{11}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.0029$

$P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.5)^{12}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.0002$

$P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) = 0.1208 + 0.0537 + 0.0161 + 0.0029 + 0.0002 = 0.1937$

19.37% probability of a household having 8 or more children.

(d) fewer than 5 children

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)$

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{12} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{11} = 0.0029$

$P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161$

$P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.0537$

$P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.1208$

$P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0002 + 0.0029 + 0.0161 + 0.0537 + 0.1208 = 0.1937$

19.37% probability of a household having fewer than 5 children.

(e) more than 3 children

Either a household has 3 or fewer children, or it has more than 3. The sum of these probabilities is 100%.

From b)

7.29% probability of a household having 3 or fewer children.

p + 7.29 = 100

p = 92.71

92.71% probability of a household having more than 3 children.

Suppose xy=−4 and dy/dt=−3. Find dx/dt when x=−1.

user100 [1]

When x=-1: $\quad (-1)y=-4\qquad\to\qquad y=4\)$

Ok that gives us a little more information.
If we implicitly differentiate with respect to t, from the very start, then we can apply our product rule, ya?

$x'y+xy'=0$

The right side is zero, derivative of a constant is zero.
Where x' is dx/dt and y' is dy/dt.

From here, plug in all the stuff you know:
y' = -3
x = -1
y = 4

and solve for x'.

Hope that helps!

The floor of a rectangular living room is 21 feet by 28 feet. What is the distance between

swat32

Answer:

35 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we will need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the diagonal length. Call this diagonal length 'd'.

d² = 21² + 28²

d² = 1225

d² = 35.

Thus, the diagonal length is 35 feet.
