Suppose that 80 percent of all statisticians are shy, whereas only 15 percent of all economists are shy. Suppose also that 90 pe

Answer:

37.21% probability that the person is a statistician.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

An 80% probability that a statistican is shy.

A 15% probability that an economist is shy.

At the gathering, a 90% probability that a person is an economist.

At the gathering, a 10% probability that a person is a statistican.

If you meet a shy person at random at the gathering. What is the probability that the person is a statistician?

This can be formulated as the following question:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

So

What is the probability that the person is a statistican, given that he is shy?

P(B) is the probability of the person being a statistican. So P(B) = 0.1.

P(A/B) is the probability of a statistican being shy, so P(A/B) = 0.8.

P(A) is the probability of a person being a shy. This is 15% of 90%(economists) and 80% of 10%(statisticans). So

$P(A) = 0.15*0.9 + 0.8*0.1 = 0.215$

Finally

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

$P = \frac{0.1*0.8}{0.215} = 0.3721$

37.21% probability that the person is a statistician.

Find the first three terms in the expansion , in ascending power of x , of (2+x)^6 and obtain the coefficient of x^2 in the expa

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The first 3 terms in the expansion of $(2 + x)^{6}$ , in ascending power of x are,

$64 , 192 \times x^{1} {\textrm{ and }}240 \times x^{2}$

coefficient of $x^{2}$ in the expansion of $(2+x - x^{2})^{6}$ = (240 - 192) = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

$(2+x)^{6}$

= $\sum_{k=0}^{6}(6_{C_{k}} \times x^{k} \times 2^{6 - k})$

= $6_{C_{0}} \times x^{0} \times 2^{6} + 6_{C_{1}} \times x^{1} \times 2^{5} + 6_{C_{2}} \times x^{2} \times 2^{4}$ + terms involving higher powers of x
