In an experiment, a ball is drawn from an urn containing 11 orange balls and 8 blue balls. If the ball is orange, three coins ar
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a) 4

b) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, when an orange ball is drawn, three coins are tossed. So, sample points are   OHHH, OHHT, OHTH, OHTT. OTHH, 0THT, OTTH, OTTT

So, clearly, 8 sample points will have an orange ball.

When a blue ball is drawn, two coins are tossed. So, sample points are BHH,BHT,BTH,BTT.

So, clearly, 4 samples points will when a blue ball is drawn.

Total samples points=4+8=12

Two bowlers bowl the following number of strikes in 9 games
ehidna [41]
First, let's calculate the mean and the mean absolute deviation of the first bowler.

FIRST BOWLER: <span>8,5,5,6,8,7,4,7,6
Mean = (Sum of all data)/(Number of data points) = (8+5+5+6+8+7+4+7+6)/9
<em>Mean = 6.222</em>
Mean absolute deviation or MAD = [</span>∑(|Data Point - Mean|]/Number of Data Points
MAD = [|8 - 6.222| + |5 - 6.222| + |5 - 6.222| + |6 - 6.222| + |8 - 6.222| + |7 - 6.222| + |4 - 6.222| + |7 - 6.222| + |6 - 6.222|]/9
<em>MAD = 1.136</em>

SECOND BOWLER: <span>10,6,8,8,5,5,6,8,9
</span>Mean = (Sum of all data)/(Number of data points) = (<span>10+6+8+8+5+5+6+8+9</span>)/9
<em>Mean = 7.222</em>
Mean absolute deviation or MAD = [∑(|Data Point - Mean|]/Number of Data Points
MAD = [|10 - 7.222| + |6 - 7.222| + |8 - 7.222| + |8 - 7.222| + |5 - 7.222| + |5 - 7.222| + |6 - 7.222| + |8 - 7.222| + |9 - 7.222|]/9
<em>MAD = 1.531
</em>

The mean absolute deviation represents the average distance of each data to the mean. Thus, the lesser the value of the MAD is, the more consistent is the data to the mean. <em>B</em><em>etween the two, the first bowler is more consistent.</em>
