Scott and Letitia are brother and sister. After dinner, they have to do the dishes, with one washing and the other drying. They

ehidna [41]

Answer:

The probability that Scott will wash is 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the events be: P = Purple and G = Green

$P = 2$

$G = 3$

Required

The probability of Scott washing the dishes

If Scott washes the dishes, then it means he picks two spoons of the same color handle.

So, we have to calculate the probability of picking the same handle. i.e.

$P(Same) = P(G_1\ and\ G_2) + P(P_1\ and\ P_2)$

This gives:

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = P(G_1) * P(G_2)$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{n(G)}{Total} * \frac{n(G)-1}{Total - 1}$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{3}{5} * \frac{3-1}{5- 1}$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{3}{5} * \frac{2}{4}$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{3}{10}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = P(P_1) * P(P_2)$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{n(P)}{Total} * \frac{n(P)-1}{Total - 1}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{2}{5} * \frac{2-1}{5- 1}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{2}{5} * \frac{1}{4}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{1}{10}$

<em>Note that: 1 is subtracted because it is a probability without replacement</em>

So, we have:

$P(Same) = P(G_1\ and\ G_2) + P(P_1\ and\ P_2)$

$P(Same) = \frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{10}$

$P(Same) = \frac{3+1}{10}$

$P(Same) = \frac{4}{10}$

$P(Same) = \frac{2}{5}$

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Semester Costs = 8*2858 = 22864

Books / semester= 8 * 391 = <u>3128</u>

Total 25992

If he wants to repay all this in six years the answer would be

45000 + 25992/6 = 45000 + 4332 = 49332

A sample of 36 observations is selected from one population with a population standard deviation of 4.2. The sample mean is 101.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

the null and the alternative hypothesis are computed as :

$H_o: \mu_1 = \mu_2$

$H_a : \mu _1 \neq \mu_2$

This is a two tailed test

This is because of the ≠ sign in the alternative hypothesis which signifies that the rejection region in the alternative hypothesis are at the both sides of the hypothesized mean difference .

Decision Rule: at the level of significance ∝ = 0 . 10

The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if z < - 1 . 64 and z > 1 . 64
