In this question, there are 3 conditions that need to be met
1. The number is 3-digit
2. Hundreds digit >7 (number that will fulfill it would be 8 or 9)
3. The tens is 1 more than hundred( since the hundred possibilities is 8 or 9, then 9 in hundreds can't be used since no number higher than 9)
4. The one digit <2( that mean 0, 1)
Using the list above, you can make your possible number:
890
891
-4(3-x)+6=2(x-3)
-12+4x+6=2x-6
-6+4x=2x-6
-6+6=2x-4x
0=-2x
0/x=-2
Answer:
(a) The expected number of should a salesperson expect until she finds a customer that makes a purchase is 0.9231.
(b) The probability that a salesperson helps 3 customers until she finds the first person to make a purchase is 0.058.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let<em> </em>the random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the number of customers the salesperson assists before a customer makes a purchase.
The probability that a customer makes a purchase is, <em>p</em> = 0.52.
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Geometric distribution since it describes the distribution of the number of trials before the first success.
The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

(a)
Compute the expected number of should a salesperson expect until she finds a customer that makes a purchase as follows:


This, the expected number of should a salesperson expect until she finds a customer that makes a purchase is 0.9231.
(b)
Compute the probability that a salesperson helps 3 customers until she finds the first person to make a purchase as follows:

Thus, the probability that a salesperson helps 3 customers until she finds the first person to make a purchase is 0.058.
Answer:
a) c) μ = 16.4.
b) d) μ > 16.4.
c) a) μ < 16.4.
d) c) μ ≠ 16.4.
e) d) right; left; both.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
Test if it is getting worse, so at the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, but at the null hypothesis we test if it is still of 16.4 options, so option C.
Question b:
At the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, as said above, so the answer is given by option d.
Question c:
Dying down, so if the mean is lower than 16.4 inches, so option a.
Question d:
Don't know, so just test if it is different, which includes both lower or greater, so the correct answer is given by option c.
Question e:
Test if more -> right, so on question b) is a right tailed test.
Test if less -> left, so on question c) is a left tailed test.
Different -> both sides, so on question d) it is a two-tailed test.
Thus the correct answer is given by option d.
a. How many floors are between the seventh and fifteenth floors?
