Answer:

a. P(X = 0)= 0.001

b. P(X = 1)= 0.001

c. P(X=2)= 0.044

d. P(X=3)= 0.117

e. P(X=4)= 0.205

f. P(X=5)= 0.246

g. P(X=6)= 0.205

h. P(X=7)= 0.117

i. P(X=8)= 0.044

j. P(X=9)= 0.001

k. P(X=10)= 0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have the variable X with binomial distribution, the probability of success is 0.5 and the sample size is n= 10 (I suppose)

If the probability of success p=0.5 then the probability of failure is q= 1 - p= 1 - 0.5 ⇒ q= 0.5

You are asked to calculate the probabilities for each observed value of the variable. In this case is a discrete variable with definition between 0 and 10.

You have two ways of solving this excersice

1) Using the formula

P(X)= \frac{n!}{(n-X)!X!} * (p)^X * (q)^{n-X}

2) Using a table of cummulative probabilities of the binomial distribution.

a. P(X = 0)

Formula:

P(X=0)= \frac{10!}{(10-0)!0!} * (0.5)^0 * (0.5)^{10-0}

P(X = 0) = 0.00097 ≅ 0.001

Using the table:

P(X = 0) = P(X ≤ 0) = 0.0010

b. P(X = 1)

Formula

P(X=1)= \frac{10!}{(10-1)!1!} * (0.5)^1 * (0.5)^{10-1}

P(X = 1) = 0.0097 ≅ 0.001

Using table:

P(X = 1) = P(X ≤ 1) - P(X ≤ 0) = 0.0107-0.0010= 0.0097 ≅ 0.001

c. P(X=2)

Formula

P(X=2)= \frac{10!}{(10-2)!2!} * (0.5)^2 * (0.5)^{10-2}

P(X = 2) = 0.0439 ≅ 0.044

Using table:

P(X = 2) = P(X ≤ 2) - P(X ≤ 1) = 0.0547 - 0.0107= 0.044

d. P(X = 3)

Formula

P(X = 3)= \frac{10!}{(10-3)!3!} * (0.5)^3 * (0.5)^{10-3}

P(X = 3)= 0.11718 ≅ 0.1172

Using table:

P(X = 3) = P(X ≤ 3) - P(X ≤ 2) = 0.1719 - 0.0547= 0.1172

e. P(X = 4)

Formula

P(X = 4)= \frac{10!}{(10-4)!4!} * (0.5)^4 * (0.5)^{10-4}

P(X = 4)= 0.2051

Using table:

P(X = 4) = P(X ≤ 4) - P(X ≤ 3) = 0.3770 - 0.1719= 0.2051

f. P(X = 5)

Formula

P(X = 5)= \frac{10!}{(10-5)!5!} * (0.5)^5 * (0.5)^{10-5}

P(X = 5)= 0.2461 ≅ 0.246

Using table:

P(X = 5) = P(X ≤ 5) - P(X ≤ 4) = 0.6230 - 0.3770= 0.246

g. P(X = 6)

Formula

P(X = 6)= \frac{10!}{(10-6)!6!} * (0.5)^6 * (0.5)^{10-6}

P(X = 6)= 0.2051

Using table:

P(X = 6) = P(X ≤ 6) - P(X ≤ 5) = 0.8281 - 0.6230 = 0.2051

h. P(X = 7)

Formula

P(X = 7)= \frac{10!}{(10-7)!7!} * (0.5)^7 * (0.5)^{10-7}

P(X = 7)= 0.11718 ≅ 0.1172

Using table:

P(X = 7) = P(X ≤ 7) - P(X ≤ 6) = 0.9453 - 0.8281= 0.1172

i. P(X = 8)

Formula

P(X = 8)= \frac{10!}{(10-8)!8!} * (0.5)^8 * (0.5)^{10-8}

P(X = 8)= 0.0437 ≅ 0.044

Using table:

P(X = 8) = P(X ≤ 8) - P(X ≤ 7) = 0.9893 - 0.9453= 0.044

j. P(X = 9)

Formula

P(X = 9)= \frac{10!}{(10-9)!9!} * (0.5)^9 * (0.5)^{10-9}

P(X = 9)=0.0097 ≅ 0.001

Using table:

P(X = 9) = P(X ≤ 9) - P(X ≤ 8) = 0.999 - 0.9893= 0.001

k. P(X = 10)

Formula

P(X = 10)= \frac{10!}{(10-10)!10!} * (0.5)^{10} * (0.5)^{10-10}

P(X = 10)= 0.00097 ≅ 0.001

Using table:

P(X = 10) = P(X ≤ 10) - P(X ≤ 9) = 1 - 0.9990= 0.001

Note: since 10 is the max number this variable can take, the cummulated probability until it is 1.

I hope it helps!

What is/are the factor(s) in the "Sub-U-Like" study?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

E. Length and frequency of the commercial.

Remaining Details of the Question:

A study investigated the effect of the length and the repetition of TV advertisements on students' desire to eat at a Sub-U-Like sandwich franchise. Sixty students watched a 50- minute television program that showed at least one commercial for Sub-U-Like during advertisement breaks. Some students saw a 30-second commerical, some saw a 60-second commercial, others a 90-second commerical. The same commerical was shown one, three, or five times during the program. After the viewing, each student was asked to rate their craving for a Sub-U-Like sandwich from the set ("Don't want to eat", "Neutral", "Want to eat"}

Explanation:

During the course of an experimental study, it is important to identify the variables of interest. These variables are referred to as the factors. Factors are controlled independent variables in an experimental study that can be manipulated by the experimenter.

In this case, it was indicated that the study investigated the effect of the length and the repetition of TV advertisements on students' desire to eat at a Sub-U-Like sandwich franchise. Therefore, the factors in the "Sub-U-Like" study are length and frequency of the commercial.

A waitress sold 11 ribeye steak dinners and 18 grilled salmon dinners, totaling 592.29 on a particular day. Another day she sold
Rina8888 [55]

Let the cost of 1 ribeye steak dinner = x

The cost of 1 salmon dinner = y

Then,

11x + 18y = 592.29   (1)

16x + 6y = 580.56   (2)

Multiplying the second equation by 3, we get,

48x + 18y = 1741.68   (3)

(3) - (1) gives

37x = 1149.39

x = 31.06

Substituting the value for x in (1), we get,

11(31.06) + 18y = 592.29

341.66 + 18y = 592.29

18y = 250.63

y = 13.92

Hence, the cost of ribeye steak dinner = 31.06 and the cost of grilled salmon dinner = 13.92.

How are the ordered pair (4,9) and (4,-9) similar, and how are they different?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Both of the points are in the same x-axis (which is 4). However, they are different because one of them is shifted 9 units up and the other one is shifted 9 units down (their y-axis are different). Their quadrants are also different since (4,9) is at the first quadrant, while (4,-9) is at the fourth quadrant.
