an art dealer makes a 17.5% commission on every painting sold. If a painting sold for $1500, what was the commission

Aleksandr [31]

A percentage is a number out of 100. So, 17.5% is really 17.5/100, or 0.175.

To find 17.5% of 1500, you multiply 1500 by 0.175

1500 x 0.175 = 262.5.

The commission is $262.50.

Complete question :

An FBI survey shows that about 30% (i.e., 0.3) of all property crimes go solved. Suppose that in New York City 15 such crimes are committed and they are each deemed independent of each other.

a. What is the probability that exactly 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved? b. What is the probability that at most 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved? c. What is the probability that more than 11 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

Answer:

0.17

0.29686

0.000092

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Probability of success (p) = 0.3

Number of cases (n) = 15

1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

Usung binomial distribution formula :

a. What is the probability that exactly 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

P(x = 3)

Recall:

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

P(x = 3) = 15C3 * 0.3^3 * 0.7^12

P(x = 3) = 455 *

P(x = 3) = 0.17

B.) What is the probability that at most 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

P( X ≤ 3) = P(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3)

To save computation time, we can using the binomial probability calculator :

P( X ≤ 3) : 0.00474 + 0.03052 + 0.09156 + 0.17004 = 0.29686

c. What is the probability that more than 11 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

P( X > 11) = P(x = 12) + p(x = 13) + p(x = 14) + p(x = 15)

P( X > 11) = 0.000092

The mean SAT score in mathematics, M, is 600. The standard deviation of these scores is 48. A special preparation course claims

kupik [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean SAT score is $\mu=600$ , we are going to call it \mu since it's the "true" mean

The standard deviation (we are going to call it $\sigma$ ) is

$\sigma=48$

Next they draw a random sample of n=70 students, and they got a mean score (denoted by $\bar x$ ) of $\bar x=613$

The test then boils down to the question if the score of 613 obtained by the students in the sample is statistically bigger that the "true" mean of 600.

- So the Null Hypothesis $H_0:\bar x \geq \mu$

- The alternative would be then the opposite $H_0:\bar x < \mu$

The test statistic for this type of test takes the form

$t=\frac{| \mu -\bar x |} {\sigma/\sqrt{n}}$

and this test statistic follows a normal distribution. This last part is quite important because it will tell us where to look for the critical value. The problem ask for a 0.05 significance level. Looking at the normal distribution table, the critical value that leaves .05% in the upper tail is 1.645.

With this we can then replace the values in the test statistic and compare it to the critical value of 1.645.

$t=\frac{| \mu -\bar x |} {\sigma/\sqrt{n}}\\\\= \frac{| 600-613 |}{48/\sqrt(70}}\\\\= \frac{| 13 |}{48/8.367}\\\\= \frac{| 13 |}{5.737}\\\\=2.266\\$

<h3>since 2.266>1.645 we can reject the null hypothesis.</h3>
