Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a game has 3 possible outcomes, with probabilities p1, p2, and p3

The amount win or lose for each outcome is v1, v2, and v3, respectively.

If X is the amount of win or lose then x has the following prob distribution

X      v_1       v_2      v_3\\Pr.    p_1       p_2     p_3\\

Hence Expected value of x = average of x

=p1v1 + p2v2 + p3v3

Thus answer is

Option b) The average amount you will win (or lose) per game in the long run.

g A popular theory is that presidential candidates have an advantage if they are taller than their main opponents. Listed are he
stira [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding heights of presidents and height of their main opponents form matched pairs.

The data for the test are the differences between the heights.

μd = the​ president's height minus their main​ opponent's height.

President's height. main opp diff

191. 166. 25

180. 179. 1

180. 168. 12

182. 183. - 1

197. 194. 3

180. 186. - 6

Sample mean, xd

= (25 + 1 + 12 - 1 + 3 + 6)/6 = 5.67

xd = 5.67

Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n

n = 6

Summation(x - mean)² = (25 - 5.67)^2 + (1 - 5.67)^2 + (12 - 5.67)^2+ (- 1 - 5.67)^2 + (3 - 5.67)^2 + (- 6 - 5.67)^2 = 623.3334

Standard deviation = √(623.3334/6 sd = 10.19

For the null hypothesis

H0: μd ≥ 0

For the alternative hypothesis

H1: μd < 0

The distribution is a students t. Therefore, degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

The formula for determining the test statistic is

t = (xd - μd)/(sd/√n)

t = (5.67 - 0)/(10.19/√6)

t = 1.36

We would determine the probability value by using the t test calculator.

p = 0.12

Since alpha, 0.05 < than the p value, 0.12, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, at 5% significance level, we can conclude that for the population of heights for presidents and their main​ opponents, the differences have a mean greater than 0 cm.

A prairie dog left its burrow 5 feet underground and started digging deeper into the ground. It digs straight down at a constant
SpyIntel [72]

Building and solving an equation to model the situation, it is found that it takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.

  • Initially, the dog is 5 feet underground.
  • Each minute, the dog goes 2 more feet underground.

Hence, the underground height of the dog after t seconds is given by:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

The time it takes for the dog to reach 13 feet underground is <u>t for which h(t) = 13</u>, hence:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

13 = 5 + 2t

2t = 8

t = \frac{8}{2}

t = 4

It takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.
