Answer:

There should be 4 points below the trend line

Step-by-step explanation:

A trend line is a straight line that best represents the data on a scatter plot.

(A Scatter Plot has points that shows the relationship between two sets of data)

This line may pass through some of the points, none of the points, or all of the points but its aim is to have the line as close as possible to all points, and as many points above the line as below.

As there are 4 points above the trend line, so there should be 4 points below that.

Hence, correct option is:

4

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>About </em><em>4 points</em><em> should be below the trend line.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

A Scatter Plot has points that shows the relationship between two sets of data.

A line of best fit or trend line is a straight line that best represents the data on a scatter plot.

This line may pass through some of the points, none of the points, or all of the points.

But its objective is to have the line as close as possible to all points, and as many points above the line as below.

As there are 4 points above the trend line, so there should be 4 points below that.

Suppose that only 20% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions whe

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

a) 91.33% probability that at most 6 will come to a complete stop

b) 10.91% probability that exactly 6 will come to a complete stop.

c) 19.58% probability that at least 6 will come to a complete stop

d) 4 of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop

Step-by-step explanation:

For each driver, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will come to a complete stop, or they will not. The probability of a driver coming to a complete stop is independent of other drivers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

20% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions when no other cars are visible.

This means that $p = 0.2$

20 drivers

This means that $n = 20$

a. at most 6 will come to a complete stop?

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{20} = 0.0115$

$P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{19} = 0.0576$

$P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{18} = 0.1369$

$P(X = 3) = C_{20,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{17} = 0.2054$

$P(X = 4) = C_{20,4}.(0.2)^{4}.(0.8)^{16} = 0.2182$

$P(X = 5) = C_{20,5}.(0.2)^{5}.(0.8)^{15} = 0.1746$

$P(X = 6) = C_{20,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.1091$

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 + 0.2054 + 0.2182 + 0.1746 + 0.1091 = 0.9133$

91.33% probability that at most 6 will come to a complete stop

b. Exactly 6 will come to a complete stop?

$P(X = 6) = C_{20,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.1091$

10.91% probability that exactly 6 will come to a complete stop.

c. At least 6 will come to a complete stop?

Either less than 6 will come to a complete stop, or at least 6 will. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X < 6) + P(X \geq 6) = 1$

We want $P(X \geq 6)$ . So

$P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6)$

In which

$P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 + 0.2054 + 0.2182 + 0.1746 = 0.8042$

$P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6) = 1 - 0.8042 = 0.1958$

19.58% probability that at least 6 will come to a complete stop

d. How many of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is

$E(X) = np = 20*0.2 = 4$

4 of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop

Tony had 1 1/2 gallons of orange juice. He drank 2/7 of the orange juice he had. How mucj orange juice did Tony drink?

Dafna1 [17]

Change 1 1/2 into a improper fraction. then multiply across. so 2 times 3 over 7 times 2. which equals 6/14. then simplify to get 3/7 as your final answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers are categorized various ways. Some categories include ...

prime, composite

real, complex

integer, rational, irrational

whole number, natural number

positive, negative, zero

algebraic, non-algebraic*

√23 is the positive, real, irrational root of a prime number. It is an algebraic number.
