Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in 2000 the population of California consisted of approximately 80% white, 8% black, and 12% Asian.

Individuals met = 5

a) probability that you met 3 white individuals, 1 black individual, and 1 Asian individual if you randomly met 5 Californians in 2000.

=favourable outcomes/total outcomes = 0.8^3(0.08)(0.12)\\= 0.0049152

b) the probability that you met more white people than black and Asian people combined if you randomly met 5 Californians in 2000.

(w,nonwhite) = (3,2) or (4,1) Or (5,0)

Or (w,b,a) = (2,1,2) or (2,0,3) or (1,0,4) or (3,1,1) or (3,2,0) or (3,0,2) or (4,0,1) or (4,1,0) or (5,0,0)

Hence prob = 0.8^2[(0.08)(0.12)^2+(0.12)^3]+0.8(0.12)^4 +(0.8)^3[0.08(0.12)+0.08^2+0.12^2] +(0.8)^4[(0.12) + 0.08]+0.8^5

In 2007, there were more than 8.14 million cars for sale. Over the next 3 years, the number of cars decreased by 23%. Write an e
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

c = 8.14 million×(0.9166)^t

4.83 million  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

  t = y - 2007

c₀ = 8.14 million

c₃  = 23 % less than c₁

Part 1. Calculate c₃

c₃ = c₀(1 - 0.23) = 0.77c₀

Part 2. Calculate r

      c₃ = c₀r^t

0.77c₀ = c₀r³

   0.77 = r³              Divided each side by c₀

         r = 0.9166     Took the cube root of each side

The explicit decay model is c = 8.14 million×(0.9166)^t

Part 3. Prediction

t = 2013 - 2007 = 6

c = c₀r^t = 8.14 million×(0.9166)⁶ = 8.14 million × 0.5929 = 4.83 million

The model predicts that there will be 4.83 million cars for sale in 2013.
