There are a total of 16 movies to choose from and 6 of them are comedy. This means that you have a 38% of choosing comedy. But the chances of you not choosing comedy is 62%. And since your friend is also choosing, the chance of neither of you not choosing is cut in half.

So, the final answer of neither of you choosing comedy is 31%

(I don't know whether it's dependent or independent)

Two tailors, Valentina and Laura, sit down to do some embroidery. Valentina can embroider 2 shirts per hour, and Laura can get t
mina [271]

Answer:

Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in 4 hours.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina =23

Total number of shirts finished by Laura =23

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in t hours.

Valentina can embroider 2 shirts per hour and Valentina has already completed 15 shirts.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina =2t+15

Laura can get through 3 shirts per hour and Laura has completed 11 shirts.

Total number of shirts finished by Laura =3t+11

Therefore,

2t+15=3t+11\\3t-2t=15-11\\t=4

So,

Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in 4 hours.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina =2(4)+15=8+15=23

Total number of shirts finished by Laura =3(4)+11=12+11=23

A leading magazine (like Barron's) reported at one time that the average number of weeks an individual is unemployed is 27 weeks
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

X ~ N(27, 4) ;

xbar ~ N(27, 0.1026) ;

0.5 ;

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability distribution of X : N(μ, σ²)

μ = 27 ; σ = 2

X ~ N(μ, σ²) = X ~ N(27, 2²) ;X ~ N(27, 4)

Distribution is approximately normal ; μ = xbar ; xbar = 27

(Standard Error)² = (σ/√n)²= (2/√39)² = 0.1026

xbar ~ N(μ, σ²) = xbar ~ N(27, 2²) ; xbar ~ N(27, 0.1026)

Probability that a randomly selected individual found a job in less than 27 weeks :

P(X < 27) :

Obtain the Zscore :

Z = (x - μ) / σ

Z = (27 - 27) / 2 = 0/2

Z = 0

P(Z < 0) = 0.5

D.) n = 36

P(X < 27) :

Obtain the Zscore :

Z = (x - μ) / σ/√n

Z = (27 - 27) / (2/√36) = 0/0.33333

Z = 0

P(Z < 0) = 0.5

The object of a popular carnival game is to roll a ball up an incline into regions with different
ELEN [110]

The expected value is the mean of the overall observed value or random value. In other words, it is the average of the observed values.

The expected value, E(x) of the given observation is 185

The given parameters can be represented as:

\begin{array}{cccc}x & {100} & {200} & {300} \ \\ P(x) & {40\%} & {35\%} & {25\%} \ \end{array}

The following formula calculates the expected value:

E(x) =\sum x * P(x)

So, we have:

E(x) = 100 * 40\% + 200 * 35\% + 300 * 25\%

E(x) = 40 + 70 + 75

E(x) = 185
