Two ballpoint pens are selected at random from a box that contains 3 blue pens, 2 red pens, and 3 green pens. If X is the number

of blue pens selected and Y is the number of red pens selected, find (a) the joint probability mass function, (b) P [(X, Y ) ∈ A], where A is the region {(x, y)|x + y ≤ 1}.

Answer:

a) f(x,y) =\frac{\binom{3}{x}\binom{2}{y}\binom{3}{2-x-y}}{\binom{8}{2}} ;   x = 0, 1 , 2;  y = 0, 1 , 2; 0 ≤ x+y ≥ 2

b) = \frac{9}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

joint probability is a function that characterizes the distribution of a random variable. If X and Y be two random variables then the joint probability will be P(X = x, Y=y)

Given Data,

X = The number of blue Pens

Y = The number of red Pens

a)

possible outcomes(X, Y) are (0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 2), (2,0)

Please refer fig. also

total number ways of selecting any 2 pens = \binom{8}{2}= \frac{8!}{2! 6!} =28

f(x,y) = \frac{\binom{3}{x}\binom{2}{y}\binom{3}{2-x-y}}{\binom{8}{2}} ;   x = 0, 1 , 2;  y = 0, 1 , 2; 0 ≤ x+y ≥ 2

b)

P(X,Y)∈A = P(X + Y ≤ 1)

= P(0,0) + P(1,0) + P(0,1)

= \frac{3}{28} + \frac{3}{14} + \frac{9}{28}

= \frac{9}{14}

A manufacturer of chocolate chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 404 gram setting. It
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

n = 27 bags

Sample mean;X = 402 gram

Population mean;μ = 404 gram

Variance = 676

We know that, standard deviation(σ) = √variance

Thus;

σ = √676

σ = 26

The hypotheses are;

Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 404

Alternative hypothesis; HA: μ < 404

Let's find the z-score from the formula;

z = (X - μ)/(√σ/n)

z = (402 - 404)/√(26/27)

z = -2.04

From the z-distribution table attached, we have a p-value of 0.02068

This is less than the significance value of 0.01 and thus we will reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

Part A: Solve A = (x + 23) for x. (4 points) Part B: Determine the value of x when A = 108. (2 points) Part C: Solve -np - 90 &g
Galina-37 [17]
<span>Part A: Solve A = (x + 23) for x.

A = x + 23

=> A - 23 = x + 23 - 23

=> A - 23 = x

=> x = A - 23 <------- answer

Part B: Determine the value of x when A = 108

Replace the value of A in the expression x = A - 23

x = 108 - 23 = 75

x = 75 <------- answer

Part C: Solve -np - 90 > 30 for n.

-np - 90 > 30

=> -np + np - 90 >30 +  np

=> - 90 > 30 + np

=> -90 - 30 > 30 - 30 + np

=> -120 > np

=> np < - 120 <----- answer

3 + 2x ≥ -4 solutions
erik [133]

Answer:

x  ≥ -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 + 2x ≥ -4

Subtract 3 from each side

3-3 + 2x ≥ -4-3

2x ≥ -7

Divide each side by 2

2x/2  ≥ -7/2

x  ≥ -7/2
