Number Frequency Probability 
 1 4 0.13
 2 6 0.20
 3 5 0.17
 4 7 0.23
 5 3 0.10
 6 5 0.17
total 30 1.00

The best explanation of how to find the experimental probability of rolling a 3 is:
To find the experimental probability of rolling a three, write a ratio of the number of times three occurs to the total number of trials. Simplify if necessary.

5/30 = 1/6 or 0.166 or 16.6% or 17%.

Answer:

To find the experimental probability, compare the total number of times the event occurs to the total number of trials. Compare the frequency of rolling the number six (9) to the total number of trials (60) using a ratio, and then reduce.

Find the most important variable in the problem.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = the number of phone available

If it would require 8 more phones, then the total number of phones will be x + 8.

A company hired an additional 12 employees, and every employee needed a phone, then

x + 8 = 12

x = 4

This means 4 phones were available (and 8 more needed to total in 12 phones for 12 new employees)

Hence, correct option is option A.

Data collected at Toronto Pearson International Airport suggests that an exponential distribution with mean value 2725hours is a

Ivan

Answer:

a) What is the probability that the duration of a particular rainfall event at this location is at least 2 hours?

We want this probability"

$P(X >2) = 1-P(X\leq 2) = 1-(1- e^{-0.367 *2})=e^{-0.367 *2}= 0.48$

At most 3 hours?

$P(X \leq 3) = F(3) = 1-e^{-0.367*3}= 1-0.333 =0.667$

b) What is the probability that rainfall duration exceeds the mean value by more than 2 standard deviations?

$P(X > 2.725 + 2*5.540) = P(X>13.62) = 1-P(X$

What is the probability that it is less than the mean value by more than one standard deviation?

$P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution". The probability density function is given by:

$P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}$

The cumulative distribution for this function is given by:

$F(X) = 1- e^{-\lambda x}, x\ geq 0$

We know the value for the mean on this case we have that :

$mean = \frac{1}{\lambda}$

$\lambda = \frac{1}{Mean}= \frac{1}{2.725}=0.367$

Solution to the problem

Part a

What is the probability that the duration of a particular rainfall event at this location is at least 2 hours?

We want this probability"

$P(X >2) = 1-P(X\leq 2) = 1-(1- e^{-0.367 *2})=e^{-0.367 *2}= 0.48$

At most 3 hours?

$P(X \leq 3) = F(3) = 1-e^{-0.367*3}= 1-0.333 =0.667$

Part b

What is the probability that rainfall duration exceeds the mean value by more than 2 standard deviations?

The variance for the esponential distribution is given by: $Var(X) =\frac{1}{\lambda^2}$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda}= \frac{1}{0.367}= 2.725$

And the mean is given by $Mean = 2.725$

Two deviations correspond to 5.540, so we want this probability:

$P(X > 2.725 + 2*5.540) = P(X>13.62) = 1-P(X$

What is the probability that it is less than the mean value by more than one standard deviation?

For this case we want this probablity:

$P(X$

Simplify the fraction completely.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

40% means 40 parts out of 100. If we have made the numerator of the fraction 2, we have divided 40 by 20. To make this fraction equal to 40/100, we have to divide 100 by 20 as well, giving us 5.
