A student takes an exam containing 1414 multiple choice questions. The probability of choosing a correct answer by knowledgeable

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the students guesses the correct answer, or he guesses the wrong answer. The probability of guessing the correct answer for a question is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

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:

$n = 14, p = 0.3$ .

If the student makes knowledgeable guesses, what is the probability that he will pass?

He needs to guess at least 9 answers correctly. So

$P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)$

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

$P(X = 9) = C_{14,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{5} = 0.0066$

$P(X = 10) = C_{14,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{4} = 0.0014$

$P(X = 11) = C_{14,11}.(0.3)^{11}.(0.7)^{3} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 12) = C_{14,12}.(0.3)^{12}.(0.7)^{2} = 0.000024$

$P(X = 13) = C_{14,13}.(0.3)^{13}.(0.7)^{1} = 0.000002$

$P(X = 14) = C_{14,14}.(0.3)^{14}.(0.7)^{0} \cong 0$

$P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.0066 + 0.0014 + 0.0002 + 0.000024 + 0.000002 = 0.0082$

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

The correlation coefficient r between a child’s age, x, and the number of minutes spent doing homework each day, y, is 0.694. Wh

jonny [76]

So, they are looking for the percentage that is NOT explained... Well, given the r we can find the percentage that IS explained by it first. That's given by r^2.

Now - let's take the square of r it gives me .481636. That means that about 48% IS explained. Therefore, the part that cannot be explained must be the missing part (out of 100% so 100% - 48.1636% should be it :)

So 100% - 48.1636% = 0.518364 and we want to round that off to three decimal places which will give us 0.518... and then we could convert that to a percent for the final. So 0.518 as a percentage is 51.8%! s

Nancy bought 3.5 gallons of gasoline. she paid 10.43. What was the price per gallon for the gasoline

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Nancy paid 2.98 per gallon of gasoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of the gasoline is given by the total amount she paid for the gasoline divided by the amount of gasoline acquired with that money. The calculations for this are shown below:

ratio = total money / total gasoline

ratio = 10.43 / 3.5

ratio = 2.98 money / gallon

Nancy paid 2.98 per gallon of gasoline.
