Answer:

​If Naveen wants to make sure that drawing a red marble is equally likely as drawing a different color marble, then he could add ***8 red marbles to the bag***

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag that contains 6 blue marbles, 3 green marbles, and 1 red marble.

Naveen wants to make sure that drawing a red marble is equally likely as drawing a different color marble, then he could add what?

Current total number of marbles = 10

Probability of drawing a red marble = (1/10)

Probability of drawing marble of other colour = (9/10)

And we want the the probability of drawing a red marble and one of the other marble to be the same.

This means we have to add a number of red marbles.

Let the number of red marbles to be added be n.

After adding n red marbles, the probability of drawing a red marble = (n+1)/(10+n)

Probability of drawing one of the other marbles = 9/(10+n)

And the probabilities are equal

(n+1)/(10+n) = 9/(10+n)

n+1 = 9

n = 9 - 1 = 8

This makes the number of red marbles 9 and total number of marbles 18.

The probability of drawing a red marble becomes (9/18) = 0.5

Probability of drawing a marble of other colour = (9/18) = 0.5 also.

A woman is randomly selected from the 18-24 age group. For women of this group, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally
dybincka [34]

Answer:

0.0274

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is \mu =114.8 and the standard deviation is \sigma =13.1.

Calculate

Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

for X=140:

Z=\dfrac{140-114.8}{13.1}\approx 1.9237.

If X\sim N(114.8,\ 13.1), then Z\sim N(0,1)

and

Pr(X>140)=Pr(Z>1.9237).

Use table for normal distribution probabilities to get that

Pr(Z>1.9237)=1-Pr(Z\le 1.9237)=1-0.9726=0.0274.

Help, please the question and thank you

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If A = (2, 3) then a dilation of scale factor 2 means that the x and y coordinates are multiplied by 2, so x = 2 x 2 = 4  and y = 3 x 2 = 6, so A' = (4, 6)
