Suppose that 50% of all young adults prefer McDonald's to Burger King when asked to state a preference. A group of 12 young adul

ddd [48]

Answer:

a) 0.194 = 19.4% probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's

b) 0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's

c) 0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King

Step-by-step explanation:

For each young adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they prefer McDonalds, or they prefer burger king. The probability of an adult prefering McDonalds is independent from other adults. So 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.

50% of all young adults prefer McDonald's to Burger King when asked to state a preference.

This means that $p = 0.5$

12 young adults were randomly selected

This means that $n = 12$

(a) What is the probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's?

$P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)$

In which

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

$P(X = 8) = C_{12,8}.(0.5)^{8}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.121$

$P(X = 9) = C_{12,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.054$

$P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.016$

$P(X = 11) = C_{12,11}.(0.5)^{11}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.003$

$P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.5)^{12}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.000$

$P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) = 0.121 + 0.054 + 0.016 + 0.003 + 0.000 = 0.194$

0.194 = 19.4% probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's

(b) What is the probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's?

$P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)$

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

$P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.054$

$P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.121$

$P(X = 5) = C_{12,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.193$

$P(X = 6) = C_{12,6}.(0.5)^{6}.(0.5)^{6} = 0.226$

$P(X = 7) = C_{12,7}.(0.5)^{7}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.193$

$P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.054 + 0.121 + 0.193 + 0.226 + 0.193 = 0.787$

0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's

(c) What is the probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King?

Since $p = 1-p = 0.5$ , this is the same as b) above.

So

0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King

How do I show the relationship between the input and the output

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Types of Relationships between the Input and Output

The scatter plot can be a useful tool in understanding the type of relationship that exist between the inputs (X’s) and the outputs (Y’s)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. No Relationship: The scatter plot can give an obvious suggestion if the inputs and outputs on the graph are not related. The points will be scattered throughout the graph with no particular pattern. For no relationship to exist, points have to be completely diffused. If some points are in concentration, then maybe a relationship does exist and our analysis has not been able to uncover it.

2. Linear and Non-Linear: A linear correlation exists when all the points are plotted close together. They form a distinct line. On the other hand points could be close together but they could form a relationship which has curves in it. The nature of the relationship has wide ranging implications.

3. Positive and Negative: A positive relationship between the inputs and the outputs is one wherein more of one input leads to more of an output. This is also known as a direct relationship.

On the other hand a negative relationship is one where more of one input leads to less of another output. This is also known as an inverse relationship.

4. Strong and Weak: The strength of the correlation is tested by how closely the data fits the shape. For instance if all the points are scattered very close together to form a very visible line then the relationship is strongly linear. On the other hand, if the relationship does not so obviously fit the shape then the relationship is weak.

I don't know if this was exactly what you were looking for; hope it is! :)

If 1/3 is 0.333 then 3/3 is 0.999 that means 1 doesnt actually equal 1

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Correct

Step-by-step explanation:

When you type 1/3 into a calculator it should give you something along the lines of .333333334. If you continue to round, eventually you will get 1.
