To put in simple terms, a reciprocal is a flipped fraction. This is used when you are dividing fractions.

butalik [34]

Answer:

The equation is following the mathematical rule of multiplying exponents.

Step-by-step explanation:

As an example to back up the answer, when you have half of a dollar, that is $0.50, if you took a half (1/2) of $0.50 that would be one fourth (1/4) of a dollar, but half of 50 cents ($0.50) A similar thing is happening with this problem. When you have two numbers (2 and 4) when you multiply them together, they equal to eight (8) for this problem, when you multiply two exponents together, you are raising the coefficient (a real number like 6) to the power of 2, and then taking that number and multiplying it by the power of 4. This is similar to the half of 50 cents, is equal to 1/4 of dollar ($0.25)

Hope this helps explain multiplying exponents together, and the mathematical rule behind it.

elect the proper interpretation of a confidence interval for a mean at a confidence level of C % . a range of values produced by

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

a range of values such that the probability is C % that a rndomly selected data value is in that range

Step-by-step explanation:

complete question is:

Select the proper interpretation of a confidence interval for a mean at a confidence level of C % .

a range of values produced by a method such that C % of confidence intervals produced the same way contain the sample mean

a range of values such that the probability is C % that a randomly selected data value is in that range

a range of values that contains C % of the sample data in a very large number of samples of the same size

a range of values constructed using a procedure that will develop a range that contains the population mean C % of the time

a range of values such that the probability is C % that the population mean is in that range

Forty percent of households say they would feel secure if they had $50,000 in savings. you randomly select 8 households and ask

Kay [80]

Answer:

Let X be the event of feeling secure after saving $50,000,

Given,

The probability of feeling secure after saving $50,000, p = 40 % = 0.4,

So, the probability of not feeling secure after saving $50,000, q = 1 - p = 0.6,

Since, the binomial distribution formula,

$P(x=r)=^nC_r p^r q^{n-r}$

Where, $^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

If 8 households choose randomly,

That is, n = 8

(a) the probability of the number that say they would feel secure is exactly 5

$P(X=5)=^8C_5 (0.4)^5 (0.6)^{8-5}$

$=56(0.4)^5 (0.6)^3$

$=0.12386304$

(b) the probability of the number that say they would feel secure is more than five

$P(X>5) = P(X=6)+ P(X=7) + P(X=8)$

$=^8C_6 (0.4)^6 (0.6)^{8-6}+^8C_7 (0.4)^7 (0.6)^{8-7}+^8C_8 (0.4)^8 (0.6)^{8-8}$

$=28(0.4)^6 (0.6)^2 +8(0.4)^7(0.6)+(0.4)^8$

$=0.04980736$

(c) the probability of the number that say they would feel secure is at most five

$P(X\leq 5) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5)$

$=^8C_0 (0.4)^0(0.6)^{8-0}+^8C_1(0.4)^1(0.6)^{8-1}+^8C_2 (0.4)^2 (0.6)^{8-2}+8C_3 (0.4)^3 (0.6)^{8-3}+8C_4 (0.4)^4 (0.6)^{8-4}+8C_5(0.4)^5 (0.6)^{8-5}$

$=0.6^8+8(0.4)(0.6)^7+28(0.4)^2(0.6)^6+56(0.4)^3(0.6)^5+70(0.4)^4(0.6)^4+56(0.4)^5(0.6)^3$

$=0.95019264$
