Assume that different groups of couples use a particular method of gender selection and each couple gives birth to one baby. Thi

s method is designed to increase the likelihood that each baby will be a​ girl, but assume that the method has no​ effect, so the probability of a girl is 0.50.5. Assume that the groups consist of 3636 couples. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below.

Complete question:

Assume that different groups of couples use a particular method of gender selection and each couple gives birth to one baby this mention is designed to increase the likelihood that each baby will be a girl, but assume that the method has no effect so the probability of a girl is 0.5. Assume that the group consists of 36 couples.

A) Find the mean and standard deviation for the number of girls in groups of 36 births.

B) Use the range rule of thumb to find the values separating results that are significantly low and significantly high.

C) Is the result of 33 girls significantly high? A result of 33 girls would suggest the method is effective or is not effective?

Answer:

a) mean = 18

Standard deviation =3

b) low range = 12

High range = 24

c) The result of 33 girls is significantly high. Yes, the method is effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p = 0.5

n = 36

a) The mean is the product of n and p

Mean u = np

u = 36 * 0.5 = 18

The standard deviation is the square root of the product of n and p&q.

S.d ó = \sqrt{npq}

= \sqrt{np(1-p)}

= \sqrt{36(0.5)(1-0.5)} = \sqrt{9} = 3

b) To find the range rule of thumb:

• For low range

Low range = u - 2ó

= 18 - (2 * 3)

= 12

• High range

= u + 2ó

= 18 + (2*3)

= 24

c) The result is significantly high, because 33 is greater than 24 girls.

A result of 33 girls would prove the method as effective.

trasher [3.6K]
<h3>Answer: reflection over x axis</h3>

g(x) = -f(x) is the same as g(x) = -1*f(x)

Since y = f(x), we are really saying g(x) = -1*y. Whatever the y coordinate is on f(x), multiply it by -1. This turns something like y = 2 into y = -2, or something like y = -3 into y = 3, etc etc. Visually this reflects the point over the horizontal x axis. Do this to all points on f(x), and the entire curve reflects over the x axis.

I show an example of y = x^2 turn into y = -x^2 in the attached image below.

2/5 ÷ 22/35 <br>simplify​
Sliva [168]

Answer:

7/11 (Simplified Already)

Step-by-step explanation: 25÷2235=?

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

25×3522=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

2×355×22=70110

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 70 and 110 using

GCF(70,110) = 10

70÷10110÷10=711

Therefore:

25÷2235=711

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for division, to

25÷2235

and solve

2×355×22

=70110

Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF(70,110) = 10

70÷10110÷10=711

Therefore:

2/5÷22/35=7/11

If pencils sell at 6 for 59 cents how many pencils can be bought for 2.95
Olegator [25]
We already know from the given data that 6 pencils can be bought for 59 cents. We have to determine the number of pencils that can be bought for $2.95.
So
Price of 6 pencils = 59 cents.
Price of 1 pencil = (59/6) cents
                           = 9.83 cents
Now total amount in hand for buying pencils = $2.95
                                                                       = 295 cents
Then the number of pencils that can be bought for 295 cents = (295/9.83)
                                                                                                   = 30.01
So the maximum number of pencils that can be bought for $2.95 is 30 pencils.
