A college library has five copies of a certain text on reserve. Three copies (1, 2, and 3) are first printings, and the remainin

g two (4, and 5) are second printings. A student examines these books in random order, stopping only when a second printing has been selected. One possible outcome is 4, and another is 214. (a) List the outcomes in S. (b) Let A denote the event that exactly one book must be examined. What outcomes are in A

Answer:

S = { (4), (5), (1,4), (1,5), (2,4), (2,5), (3,4), (3,5), (1,2,3,4), (1,2,3,5), (2,1,3,4) (2,1,3,5), (3,1,2,4), (3,1,2,5) }

A ={(4), (5)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Among the three copies, (1,2,3) are the first printings, and (4,5) are the second printings.

A student who examines these books in random order stops when a second printing has been selected.

Thus, we can compute the sample space associated with these experiments as:

S = { (4), (5), (1,4), (1,5), (2,4), (2,5), (3,4), (3,5), (1,2,3,4), (1,2,3,5), (2,1,3,4) (2,1,3,5), (3,1,2,4), (3,1,2,5) }

Suppose A represents the event that we must examine exactly one book.

Then the outcomes of A are:

A ={(4), (5)}

Alice weighs 20 dogs and 20 cats. The mean weight for the dogs is 32kg and the mean weight for cats is 4kg. The range in weight
azamat

With the mean and range, we can estimate the weights of the smallest and largest animals in each group.

For cats the interval is [ 3.75kg, 4.25kg] and for dogs is [9.5kg, 54.5kg]

<h3>Which conclusions can be made with the given information?</h3>

We know that the mean weight for cats is 4kg, and the range (difference between the largest value and smallest value) is 0.5kg.

  • From that, we can conclude with some confidence (but not exactly), that the largest cat weights 4kg + 0.5kg/2 = 4.25kg
  • And the smallest cat weights 4kg - 0.5kg/2 = 3.75kg

(Assuming a normal distribution).

Similar for the dogs, the mean weight is 32kg and the range is 45kg, then:

  • The largest dog weights 32kg + 45kg/2 = 54.5kg
  • The smallest dog weights 32kg - 45kg/2 = 9.5kg

(again, assuming a normal distribution).
