Use your calculator to find an interval of length 0.01 that contains a root. (enter your answer using interval notation.)

1 answer:

6 0

<span>Given a function, if you suspect a root lies near a specific point on the number line, you can evaluate the function at several nearby values and see whether the evaluation is positive or negative. Using a calculator, you should find two real numbers that are at distance 0.01 from one another, such that one real number evaluates positive, and the other evaluates negative. Then the interval between these values contains a root.</span>

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

(a) $P(X=10) = 0.2070$

(b) $P(X\geq 10) = 0.3798$

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in this problem we have an initial population N = 50, of which 30 fulfill a certain characteristic "m" (belong to the second section). Then, from the population N, a sample of size n = 15 is selected and it is desired to know how many comply with the desired characteristic (second section).

Let X be the number of projects in the second section, then X is a discrete random variable that can be modeled by a hypergeometric distribution.

(a)

Therefore, to answer question (a) we use the following equation presented in the attached image:

Where:

$N = 50\\m = 30\\n = 15\\X = 10$
