The first is a 1/3 chance, the second is a 3/10 chance.  Multiply them both, you get 3/30, or 1/10 chance.

The first urn has 9 balls and 3 of them are white.
The probability of pulling out a white one is 3/9 = 1/3 .

The second urn has 10 balls and 7 of them are white.
The probability of pulling out a white one is 7/10.

The probability of BOTH things happening is  (1/3) · (7/10) = 7/30 = 0.2333...

Answer:

Case n =5

z=\frac{4.8-5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{5}}}=-0.894  

Case n =15

z=\frac{4.8-5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{15}}}=-1.549  

Case n = 40

z=\frac{4.8-5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{40}}}=-2.530  

P value

Case n =5

p_v =P(z  

Case n =15

p_v =P(z  

Case n =40

p_v =P(z  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=4.8 represent the sample mean

\sigma=0.5 represent the population standard deviation

n sample size  

\mu_o =5 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is lower than 5, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 5  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 5  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

Case n =5

z=\frac{4.8-5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{5}}}=-0.894  

Case n =15

z=\frac{4.8-5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{15}}}=-1.549  

Case n = 40

z=\frac{4.8-5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{40}}}=-2.530  

P-value  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

Case n =5

p_v =P(z  

Case n =15

p_v =P(z  

Case n =40

p_v =P(z

Gaming a video-game designer is using the expression 6n3 in a program to determine points earned, where n is the game level.

Given expression is 6n^3. the given expression is for the nth level.

To simplify the expression for the  n^2 level, we plug in n^2  in the place of 'n' in the given expression

6n^3

6(n^2)^3 (multiply the exponents)

6n^6

Find the midpoint of the segment with the given endpoints (5,-9) and (-2,-2)
QveST [7]
Another way to solve this is to use the Midpoint Formula.  The midpoint of a segment joining points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is

\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} \right)

So the midpoint of your segment is

\left(\frac{5+(-2)}{2},\frac{-9+(-2)}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{3}{2},-\frac{11}{2} \right)

Perhaps it helps to see that the x-coordinate of the midpoint is just the average of the x-coordinates of the points.  Ditto for the y-coordinate of the midpoint; just average the y's.
