The experiment with the least number of trials.
 
Experimental probability is more accurate and more close to theoretical probability by having the most trials. More trials = more accuracy. Less trials = less accuracy.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

The correct option is (c).

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

The data for the student enrollment at a college in Southern California is:

                    Traditional          Accelerated            Total

                  Math-pathway     Math-pathway

Female              1244                       116                   1360

Male                  1054                       54                    1108

Total                  2298                     170                  2468

We want to determine if the probability that a student enrolled in an accelerated math pathway is independent of whether the student is female. Which of the following pairs of probabilities is not a useful comparison?

a. 1360/2468 and 116/170

b. 170/2468 and 116/1360

c. 1360/2468 and 170/2468

Solution:

If two events <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> are independent then:

P(A|B)=P(A)\\\\\&\\\\P(B|A)=P(B)

In this case we need to determine whether a student enrolled in an accelerated math pathway is independent of the student being a female.

Consider the following probabilities:

P (F|A) = \farc{116}{170}\\\\P(A|F)=\frac{116}{1360}\\\\P(A)=\frac{170}{2468}\\\\P(F)=\frac{1360}{2468}

If the two events are independent then:

P (F|A) = P(F)

&

P (A|F) = P (A)

But what would not be a valid comparison is:

P (A) = P(F)

Thus, the correct option is (c).

The line has the same slope as 7x-y=5 and the same y intercept as the graph 3y-11x=15
scoundrel [369]
7x - y= -5. Standard form is when it is written with x and y on the same side, but x is not negative or a fraction. To find the slope and y intercept, you must change the first two equations to slope intercept. You get y=7x-5 for the first one and y=11/3x+5 for the seccond equation. Take the 5 as your y intercept and the 7 as your slope and you get y=7x+5. Now you need to change it into standard form. When all is said and done, your final answer should be 7x - y = -5.

Determine the value of a 10 year old car that costs $24,500 new and depreciates by 9% every year
son4ous [18]
First, we need to know how much the car depreciates each year. Multiply the price of the car by the percentage.

We can turn 9% into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the right.

9% = .09

24500 * .09 = 2205

Multiply the product by the amount of years you want to predict the price at.

2205 * 10 = 22050

Subtract that from the original price of the car.

24500 - 22050 = 2450

The value of a 10 year old car that costs $24500 and depreciates 9% every year will cost $2450.
