Suppose you take a 15 question True or False quiz and you guess on every problem. You only get 3 correct. (a) What is the probab

ility of getting 3 or fewer correct guesses? Round your answer to 3 decimal places. (b) Would 3 be an unusually low number of correct guesses? Use the criteria that a number (x) is unusually low if P(x or fewer) ≤ 0.05. Yes, that is an unusually low number of correct guesses. No, that is not an unusually low number of correct guesses.

Answer:

0.648

No, that is not an unusually low number of correct guesses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose you take a 15 question True or False quiz and you guess on every problem. You only get 3 correct. Then

  • p=\dfrac{3}{15}=\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2 - correct;
  • q=1-p=1-0.2=0.8 - o\incorrect.

The probability of getting 3 or fewer correct guesses is

P(\text{3 or fewer})\\=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)+P(3)\\ \\=C^{15}_0p^0q^{15-0}+C^{15}_1p^1q^{15-1}+C^{15}_2p^2q^{15-2}+C^{15}_3p^0q^{15-3}\\ \\=1\cdot q^{15}+15pq^{14}+105p^2q^{13}+455p^3q^{12}\\ \\=(0.8)^{15}+15\cdot 0.2\cdot (0.8)^{14}+105\cdot (0.2)^2\cdot (0.8)^{13}+455\cdot (0.2)^3\cdot (0.8)^{13}\\ \\\approx 0.648

Using the criteria that a number 3 is unusually low if P(3 or fewer) ≤ 0.05, we can state that 3 is not an unusually low number of correct guesses.

Answer:

  • Yes, No, Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use the Pythagorean theorem:</u>

  • a² + b² = c²

<u>Verify this for each line:</u>

1.

  • 28² + 45² = 53²
  • 2809 = 2809
  • Yes

2.

  • 33² + 56² = 64²
  • 4225 ≠ 4096
  • No

3.

  • 36² + 77² = 85²
  • 7225 = 7225
  • Yes

A sample of n = 4 scores has SS = 48. What is the estimated standard error for this sample? Group of answer choices
mylen [45]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

n = 4 scores

SS = 48

For this question, we are required to find the estimated standard error

To get this, we first solve for the variance

S² = SS/n-1

= 48/4-1

= 48/3

= 16

Then S² = 16

S = √16

S = 4

Then the estimated standard error is given by:

S/√n

= 4/√4

= 4/2

= 2.

The estimated standard error is 2.
