In Evans history class, 10 out of 100 key terms will be randomly selected to appear on the final exam; Evan must then choose 7 o

f those 10 to define. Since he knows the format of the exam in advance, Evan is trying to decide how many key terms he should study. (a) Suppose that Evan decides to study s key terms, where s is an integer between 0 and 100. Let X be the number of key terms appearing on the exam that he has studied. What is the distribution of X? Give the name and parameters, in terms of s. (b) Calculate the probability that Evan knows at least 7 of the 10 key terms that appear on the exam, assuming that he studies s = 75 key term

Answer:

(a) Hypergeometric distribution

(b) 0.785384...

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) looking at the question, we see that X = \in \{0, ... , 10 \}, suppose Evans studied s key terms, this implies that he has not studied 100 - s key terms. Suppose k = \in \{0, ... , 10 \} if X = k, then k out of the s key terms he had studied appeared. But 10 - k out of 100 - s key terms he hasn't studied appeared. Thus X is an Hypergeometric distribution, X~HGeom(s, 100 - s, 10) with PMF:

P_{x}(k) = P(X = k)

A graduated cylinder is filled with 20ml of water. Then, an 8g marble is dropped into the cylinder, causing the volume to change
Tema [17]

Answer:

The density of the marble is 2,000 kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters for finding the density of the marble are;

The volume of water in the graduated cylinder, v₁ = 20 ml

The mass of the marble dropped into the graduated cylinder, m = 8 g

The new volume of the cylinder after the 8 g marble is dropped into the cylinder, v₂ = 24 ml

Therefore, the volume of the marble, v = v₂ - v₁

Substituting the known values gives;

The volume of the marble, v = 24 ml - 20 ml = 4 ml

Density, ρ = Mass, m/(Volume, v), the units of density is kg/m³

Therefore, the density of the marble, \rho _{marble}, is given as follows;

\rho _{marble} = m/v = (8 g)/(4 ml) = 2 g/ml

1 g/ml = 1 kg/l = 1,000 kg/m³

∴ \rho _{marble} = 2 kg/l = 2,000 kg/m³.

Easy Question, Easy Points<br><br><br>Topic: Volume<br><br><br>Focus on question 12
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The air is .6m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is

V = s^3 where s is the side length

The volume of the tank is

V = 1^3 = 1 m^3

The volume of the water is 1 by 1 by .4

V = l*w*h

   = 1 *1*.4

   = .4 m^3

The difference must be filled by air

1- .4 = .6 m^3

The air is .6m^3
