Answer:

1. 0.1367

2. 0.0709

3. 0.1766

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of success is p=0.6, then the probability of a failure is q=1-0.6=0.4.

1. The probability that there are exactly 13 successes in 24 trials is

C^{24}_{13}p^{13}q^{24-13}=\dfrac{24!}{13!(24-13)!}\cdot (0.6)^{13}\cdot (0.4)^{11}\approx 0.1367

2. The probability that there are exactly 9 successes in 20 trials is

C^{20}_{9}p^{9}q^{20-9}=\dfrac{20!}{9!(20-9)!}\cdot (0.6)^{9}\cdot (0.4)^{11}\approx 0.0709

3. The probability that there are exactly 6 failures in 12 trials is

C^{12}_{6}q^{6}p^{12-6}=\dfrac{12!}{6!(12-6)!}\cdot (0.4)^{6}\cdot (0.6)^{6}\approx 0.1766

kvasek [131]

Answer:

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI  of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).

New machine

Sample mean                  x₁ =    25

Sample variance               s₁  = 27

Sample size                       n₁  = 45

Old machine

Sample mean                    x₂ =  23  

Sample variance               s₂  = 7,56

Sample size                       n₂  = 36

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                         H₀             x₂  -  x₁  = d = 0

Alternative hypothesis             Hₐ            x₂  -  x₁  <  0

CI = 90 %  ⇒  α =  10 %     α = 0,1      z(c) = - 1,28

To calculate z(s)

z(s)  =  ( x₂  -  x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂

s₁  = 27     ⇒    s₁²  =  729

n₁  = 45    ⇒   s₁² / n₁    = 16,2

s₂  = 7,56   ⇒    s₂²  = 57,15

n₂  = 36     ⇒    s₂² / n₂  =  1,5876

√s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂  =  √ 16,2  + 1.5876    = 4,2175

z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175

z(s)  =  - 0,4742

Comparing z(s) and  z(c)

|z(s)| < | z(c)|  

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

The very hight dispersion of values s₁ = 27 is evidence of frecuent values quite far from the mean

Find the nearest place value. Use #13 to do #14
kondaur [170]
When rounding here are the rules
If the next number to the right is 1-4, you will round down or keep the # the same.
If the next number to the right is 5-9, you will round up to the next number.

So with your # 281,421,906
a. hundred million.  This is the first 2...the number to the right of it is 8, so we will round the 2 up.  And the answer is 300,000,000
b. ten million.  This is the 8...the number to the right of it is 1, so we will round it down and 8 will remain an 8.  And the answer is 280,000,000
c. million.  This is the first 1 (281)...the number to the right is 4, so we will round down and 1 will remain a 1.  And the answer is 281,000,000
d. hundred thousand.  This is the 4...the number to the right of it is 2, so we will round down and the 4 will remain a 4.  And the answer is 281,400,000
e. thousand.  This is the second 1 (281,421)...the number to the right is the 9, so we will round up and the 1 will become a 2.  And the answer is 281,422,000

Now for #14, think about the rules.
  1. If you round it to the nearest one, you get 7.  
  2. If you round it to the nearest tenth, you get 7.0.
  3.  If you round it o the nearest hundredth, you get 7.00
  4.  It is the least number that fits the clues.

Ok basically it is saying, it rounds up to 7.  So what would be the number that would round UP to 7?  That would be 6.  I'm rounding UP because it says it is the LEAST number that fits the clues.

Over 1,000 people try to climb Mt. Everest every year. Of those who try to climb Everest, 31 percent succeed. The probability th
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

A- 0.125

B- Success of climbing mount Everest is independent of age.

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

Let x denote success in climbing Mount Everest

Let y denote the climber is at least 60 years old.

Therefore,

P(x) = 0.31

P(y) = 0.04

P( x ∩ y) = 0.005

Probability of success when the climber is at least 60 years old =

P( x ∩ y) ÷ P(y) = 0.005 ÷ 0.04 = 0.125.

B.

The success rate is independent of age as there are both success and failure rates across board on the scale of ages of climbers.
