She ironed 1/4 of shirts...that leaves 3/4 left to iron

(3/4) / 5 =
3/4 * 1/5 =
3/20 per day

teacher gives 5 students a multiple choice test, in which each problem is worth 1 point and there is no penalty with negative po

mamaluj [8]

The mean is the average value of a given set of numbers, and the median is the number in the middle of a set of numbers arranged in increasing order

The correct values as response to the questions are;

The minimum possible <em>top score</em> is <u>21</u>

The maximum possible <em>top score</em> is <u>32</u>

The <em>minimum </em>of the possible <em>standard deviation</em> is approximately <u>1.26</u>

The <em>maximum </em>of the possible <em>standard deviation</em> is approximately <u>11.7</u>

<u />

The reason the above values are correct are as follows:

<u />

The given parameters are;

The number of students that take the test, n = 5

The amount of points for each problem = 1 point

The median score = 9

The mean Score = 10

Required:

The minimum possible score;

The maximum possible top score

The minimum of the possible standard deviations

The maximum of the possible standard deviations

Solution:

Given that there is a score (the median) which is 9, we have;

The scores obtainable in the test is Scores ≥ 9

Therefore, for a score of 10, we have;

The minimum total points obtainable = Mean × Number of students

Therefore;

Total minimum total points obtainable by the 5 students = 5 × 10 = 50

The minimum possible top score

By arrangement, with the median at the middle, the minimum possible top score is given as follows;

0, 0, 9, 20, 21

Therefore, the minimum possible top score is <u>21</u>

<u />

The maximum possible top score

The maximum possible top score is similarly given by arrangement of the numbers as follows'

0, 0, 9, 9, 32

The maximum possible top score is <u>32</u>

<u />

The minimum standard deviation

By arrangement and selection, the minimum standard deviation is given as follows;

The minimum of the possible standard deviations of (9, 9, 9, 11, 12) ≈ <u>1.26</u>

The maximum of the possible standard deviation

The maximum of the possible standard deviation is given as follows;

The maximum of the possible standard deviation of (0, 0, 9, 9, 32) ≈ <u>11.7</u>

A survey report states that 70% of adult women visit their doctors for a physical examination at least once in two years. If 20

irakobra [83]

Answer:

a) 0.3921 = 39.21% probability that fewer than 14 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

b) 0.107 = 10.7% probability that at least 17 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each women, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they visit their doctors for a physical examination at least once in two years, or they do not. The probability of a woman visiting their doctor at least once in this period is independent of any other women. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

70% of adult women visit their doctors for a physical examination at least once in two years.

This means that $p = 0.7$

20 adult women

This means that $n = 20$

(a) Fewer than 14 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

This is:

$P(X < 14) = 1 - P(X \geq 14)$

In which

$P(X \geq 14) = P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 14) = C_{20,14}.(0.7)^{14}.(0.3)^{6} = 0.1916$

$P(X = 15) = C_{20,15}.(0.7)^{15}.(0.3)^{5} = 0.1789$

$P(X = 16) = C_{20,16}.(0.7)^{16}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.1304$

$P(X = 17) = C_{20,14}.(0.7)^{17}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.0716$

$P(X = 18) = C_{20,18}.(0.7)^{18}.(0.3)^{2} = 0.0278$

$P(X = 19) = C_{20,19}.(0.7)^{19}.(0.3)^{1} = 0.0068$

$P(X = 20) = C_{20,20}.(0.7)^{20}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.0008$

So

$P(X \geq 14) = P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) = 0.1916 + 0.1789 + 0.1304 + 0.0716 + 0.0278 + 0.0068 + 0.0008 = 0.6079$

$P(X < 14) = 1 - P(X \geq 14) = 1 - 0.6079 = 0.3921$

0.3921 = 39.21% probability that fewer than 14 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

(b) At least 17 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years

$P(X \geq 17) = P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20)$

From the values found in item (a).

$P(X \geq 17) = P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) = 0.0716 + 0.0278 + 0.0068 + 0.0008 = 0.107$

0.107 = 10.7% probability that at least 17 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.
