Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show a steady decline in the average workweek of U.S. production workers from 38.5

hours in 1964 to 33.9 hours in 2006. But employees are spending time working when they are at home and behind the wheel. In a poll conducted for Staples, 18% of small-business managers in the United States reported that they read e-mail messages in the bathroom. Consider the experiment of randomly selecting four small-business managers and learning whether they read e-mail messages in the bathroom.
Let R = reads e-mail in the bathroom, and
N = does not read e-mail in the bathroom.
Firs, define a success, in this case, define the selection of a manager who reads e-mail in the bathromm as success. Of the________possible experimental outcomes, _________outcomes result in exactly 1 success.
All of the sample points with 1 success have the same probability of occurrence. What is this probability?
a. 0.18
b. 0.0048
c. 0.0218
d. 0.0992

Answer:

Of the 16 possible experimental outcomes, 4 outcomes result in exactly 1 success.

The probability of a determined sample point with an outcome of one success is P=0.0992.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a proportion of success (the selection of a manager who reads e-mail in the bathroom) of p=0.18.

The sample size is n=4.

We can model this as a binomial random variable.

The sample space is [0, 1, 2, 3, 4].

The possible outcomes for x=0 (that is no manager in the sample reads email in the bathroom) can be calculated as:

C(0)=\dbinom{4}{0}=\dfrac{4!}{4!0!}=1

The same way we can calculate all the other possible outcomes:

C(1)=\dbinom{4}{1}=\dfrac{4!}{3!1!}=\dfrac{4}{1}=4\\\\\\C(2)=\dbinom{4}{2}=\dfrac{4!}{2!2!}=\dfrac{4*3}{2*2}=6\\\\\\C(3)=\dbinom{4}{3}=\dfrac{4!}{3!1!}=4\\\\\\C(4)=\dbinom{4}{4}=\dfrac{4!}{4!0!}=1

The sum of this outcomes is 16 possible outcomes. Of the 16 possible experimental outcomes, 4 outcomes result in exactly 1 success.

The probability of an outcome with 1 success is the product of p (the one that reads email) times (1-p)^3 (the other 3 that do not read emails in the bathroom):

p\cdot (1-p)^3=0.18\cdot0.82^3=0.18\cdot 0.5514=0.0992

What statement is NOT true about the pattern shown below? 2/3, 4/6, 8/12, 16/24 Choices: Each fraction is greater than the previ
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions given are:

2/3, 4/6, 8/12, 16/24

Note that

2/3 = 4/6 = 8/12 = 16/32

The Fractions are all equal. Each fraction is equivalent to 2/3

The pattern used here is:

2/3 × 2/2 = 4/6

4/6 × 2/2 = 8/12

8/12 × 2/2 = 16/24

16/24 × 2/2 = 32/48

Each fraction is equal to the previous fraction in the pattern multiplied by 2/2

Also, the next fraction in the pattern is 32/48.

The statement that "Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction" is incorrect. The fractions are all equal.

Relationship between the sines and cosines of complementary angles
SVEN [57.7K]

The trigonometric ratios have been determined and the angles T and U are complementary.

<h3>What are Trigonometric Ratios?</h3>

Trigonometric Ratios are ratios of the side of a right-angled triangle. These are used to find the missing sides and angles of a right-angled triangle.

A right-angled triangle is a triangle with a measure of one of the angles as 90 degrees.

The triangle TUV is a right-angled triangle, the sides of the triangle are t, u, and v.

Part 1:

The angle T is not equal to angle U.

But by the angle sum property,

T + U + V = 180

T + U = 90

Both the angles are complementary.

Part 2:

The trigonometric ratios are as follows:

sin T = t/v

cos T = u/v

sin U = u/v

cos U = t/v

Part 3:

From the data in part 2,

Options C and D are the correct statements.

sin T = cos U

cos T = sin U

Part 4:

sin 37 = cos ( 90-37)

sin 37 = cos 53
