Rolling a number less than 4 on a number cube labeled 1 through 6

1 answer:

3 0

Rolling a number less than 4 means that rolling a 1, 2, or 3 will satisfy the requirement. Since 3 of 6 possible outcomes will satisfy the requirement then the likelihood that it will be rolled is 3/6 times. 3/6 reduces to 1/2 or 50% chance.

Sally’s wallet contains:

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Nickles: 96 times

Penny: 48 times

Step-by-step explanation:

5+3+8+4 = 20 coins in total

20x = 240

x=12 (chance of a coin being picked)

8 nickles(12) = 96

4 pennies(12) = 48

I don’t understand how to identify quadratic transformations. Can I have so help please?

Levart [38]

Answer:

The parent function for a quadratic is f(x) = x^2. If there is something other than this, that is how you know it is a quadratic transformation.

Find the measures of

Hatshy [7]

X= 26 y=26

As 130+88=308
360-308=52
52/2=26
The two sides are equal so they would be both 26

Suppose that X has an exponential distribution with mean equal to 10. Determine the following: a. P(X > 10) b. P(X > 20) c

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

(a) The value of P (X > 10) is 0.3679.

(b) The value of P (X > 20) is 0.1353.

(d) The value of x is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability density function of an exponential distribution is:

$f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x};\ x>0, \lambda>0$

The value of E (X) is 10.

The parameter λ is:

$\lambda=\frac{1}{E(X)}=\frac{1}{10}=0.10$

(a)

Compute the value of P (X > 10) as follows:

$P(X>10)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{10} {0.10 e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx \\=0.10\int\limits^{\infty}_{10} { e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx\\=0.10|\frac{e^{-0.10 x}}{-0.10} |^{\infty}_{10}\\=|e^{-0.10 x} |^{\infty}_{10}\\=e^{-0.10\times10}\\=0.3679$

Thus, the value of P (X > 10) is 0.3679.

(b)

Compute the value of P (X > 20) as follows:

$P(X>20)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{20} {0.10 e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx \\=0.10\int\limits^{\infty}_{20} { e^{-0.10 x}} \, dx\\=0.10|\frac{e^{-0.10 x}}{-0.10} |^{\infty}_{20}\\=|e^{-0.10 x} |^{\infty}_{20}\\=e^{-0.10\times20}\\=0.1353$

Thus, the value of P (X > 20) is 0.1353.

(c)

Compute the value of P (X < 30) as follows:

$P(X$

Thus, the value of P (X < 30) is 0.9502.

(d)

It is given that, P (X < x) = 0.95.

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

$P(X$

Take natural log on both sides.

$ln(e^{-0.10x})=ln(0.05)\\-0.10x=-2.996\\x=\frac{2.996}{0.10}\\ =29.96\\\approx30$

Thus, the value of x is 30.

Below are 36 sorted ages of an acting award winner. Find Upper P70 using the method presented in the textbook.

Leona [35]

The upper 70th percentile is the number below which 70% of the data lie.

The 70th percentile position is given by:

$P_{70}= \frac{70N}{100} = \frac{70(36)}{100} =25.2$

Thus, the 70th percentile position is approximately the 25th data item (after the data has been arranged in acsending order).

Given the following data:
<span>16 24 25 26 27 29 36 39 39 39 40 44 45 47 47 48 50 51 51 53 53 54 57 58
58 60 65 66 67 69 69 71 72 74 74 74

The 25th data in the data set is 58.

Therefore, the upper P70 is 58.
