What happened in the first questions doesn't influence the final question, so the probability is simply 1/5 = 0.2

use binomial Cdf on your calculator.

insert it like such:

num trials: 6

prob: .2

Lower bound: 1

Lower bound: 2

then click enter :)

Mercedes bought 2 1/2 pounds of blueberries and her son ate 1/4 the blueberries how many pounds of blueberries Are left?

iragen [17]

So all you do is you divide 2 1/2 by .25 and you get 10 then you know one fourth or 25% of that package is 10 berries so the rest or 30% left over is 30 berries.

Use the normal distribution and the given sample results to complete the test of the given hypotheses. Assume the results come f

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43$

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

$p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008$

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=75 represent the random sample taken

$\hat p=0.64$ estimated proportion of interest

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the true proportion is higher than 0.5:

Null hypothesis: $p =0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

The statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the info given we got:

$z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43$

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

$p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008$

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

I need help pls is only 1 question

Yanka [14]

Answer:

$T = 1300$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Radius, r = 9\ in$

$Height, h = 14\ in$

<em>See attachment</em>

<em></em>

Required

Determine the total surface area, T

T is calculated using:

$T = 2\pi r(r + h)$

Substitute values for r and h

$T = 2\pi * 9(9 + 14)$

$T = 2\pi * 9(23)$

Remove bracket

$T = 2\pi * 9*23$

$T = 2\pi * 207$

Take $\pi = 3.14$

So, we have:

$T = 2 * 3.14 * 207$

$T = 1299.96$

$T = 1300$ --- approximated.

<em>Hence, the surface area is 1300 square inch</em>

joe is in debt $250, but he's saving $30 each month. using the equation, y=30x-250, how long will it take joe to have $230?

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

so in this equation we have 2 variables, and we must figure out what those variables mean:

y: "y" is the total amount of money joe has after subtracting his debt from it

x: "x" is the # of months as the cost of each month(30) is placed just before this variable

as y is the total amount of money joe has we need to substitute it for 230 to figure out how long it took for joe to recieve that much money

230=30x-250

480=30x

x=16

it took joe 16 months to get $230
