Answer:

552; 6.6452 (approx)

Explanation:

Given that,

Car recovered, p = 92% of the time

Number of cars stolen, n = 600 (randomly selected)

Probability of not recovering: (1 - p) = 1 - 0.92

                                                          = 0.08

Mean = Number of observations × Probability of recovering

         = 600 × 0.92

         = 552

Standard deviation:

= \sqrt{n\times p\times (1-p)}

= \sqrt{600\times 0.92\times 0.08}

=\sqrt{44.16}

= 6.64529909

Therefore, the mean and standard deviation of the number of cars recovered after being​ stolen is 552 and 6.6452(approx), respectively.

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

t = 20 hr

Explanation:

Given data:

Total number of machine = 10

Total time for machine is 16 hr

we know that Time \times rate = job

From the information given in the question  we have

[/tex]16\times 10x = job[/tex]

As demand in the question we have

t \times 8x = job , job will remain same as before so

solving for t

16\times 10x =  t \times 8x

t = 20 hr

When asked to guess whether Mark is from Montana or California, you guess California because more people live in California. You have used "base rate information" in making your decision.

<h3>What is Base Rate in Psychology?</h3>

Base rate is the frequency of a phenomenon that naturally occurs in a population. Using base rate information, rational decisions are made taking into account the general occurrence in a larger population in favour of the specific incidence in a particular case.

Effects of base rate information are-

  • Base rate fallacy, as used in behavioural finance, is the propensity for people to incorrectly assess the likelihood of a situation by ignoring all pertinent information.
  • Investors may instead place a greater emphasis on recent information without taking into account how this affects their initial hypotheses.
