how do you find equivalent ratos if one ratio is given and they ask you to figure what are the other ratios which are equivalent

1 answer:

3 0

Example: Given 3/14, we could obtain equivalent ratios by mult. 3/14 by 2/2, 100/100, 1385/1385, etc. So long as you mult. both 3 and 14 by the same quantity, the new ratio will equal the old.

An instructor who taught two sections of engineering probability last term, the first with 20 students and thesecond with 30, de

Oliga [24]

Answer:

0.207

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an hypergeometric distribution problem

An hypergeometric distribution has the same sense as the discrete probabilities of binomial distribution, but unlike binomial distribution, hypergeometric distribution does not allow replacement.

Binomial distribution expresses the probability of picking k objects from n with replacement, but hypergeometric distribution expresses picking k objects from n without replacement, with the finite total population, N, containing K objects.

It is expressed mathematically as

h(k: n, K, N) = (ᴷCₖ)(ᴺ⁻ᴷCₙ₋ₖ)/(ᴺCₙ)

where

k = number of students in the 2nd section required to be in the first 15 graded projects (number of successes) = 10

n = total number of first graded projects (number of trials) = 15

K = number of students in the 2nd section of the class = 30

N = total number of students = 50

h(10: 15, 30, 50) = (³⁰C₁₀)(⁵⁰⁻³⁰C₁₅₋₁₀)/(⁵⁰C₁₅)

h(10: 15, 30, 50) = (³⁰C₁₀)(²⁰C₅)/(⁵⁰C₁₅)

= (30,045,015)(15,504)/(2,250,829,575,120)

P(X = 10) = 0.207

At a Psychology final exam, the scores are normally distributed with a mean 73 points and a standard deviation of 10.6 points. T

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The score that separates the lower 5% of the class from the rest of the class is 55.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

$\mu = 73, \sigma = 10.6$

Find the score that separates the lower 5% of the class from the rest of the class.

This score is the 5th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.05. So it is X when Z = -1.645.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$-1.645 = \frac{X - 73}{10.6}$

$X - 73 = -1.645*10.6$

$X = 55.6$

The score that separates the lower 5% of the class from the rest of the class is 55.6.

What is the y intercept of the linear equation x

spin [16.1K]

x isn't a linear equation, it's just a variable or an expression or a letter of the alphabet.

x = 0 is a linear equation and is a line in the Cartesian plane. In fact, it's the y axis itself.

So every point on the line x=0 is a y intercept.

There is no "the" y intercept, no unique y intercept.
