Answer:

The probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is 0.0455

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

number of novels = 5

number of short stories = 7

total  number of books = 12

The probability that Ivan's friend pick's a novel = 5 / 12

The probability of Ivan's first pick to be a novel = 4 / 11

The probability of Ivan's second pick to be a novel = 3 /10

The probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is given by;

= p(Ivan's friend pick) and P(Ivan's first pick) and P(Ivan's second pick);

= \frac{5}{12}*\frac{4}{11}*\frac{3}{10}\\\\   = \frac{1}{22}\\\\ = 0.0455

Therefore, the probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is 0.0455

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer Candidate A is significantly more than 47%. With Ha : p
rodikova [14]

Answer:

The p-value is 0.0229

Step-by-step explanation:

With H_{a}: p > 0.47 we have an upper-tail alternative. Because the p-value is defined as the probability of getting a value at least as extreme as the value observed. The observed value is given by the test statistic z = 1.997 which comes from a standard normal distribution. Therefore, we compute the p-value in the following way P(Z > 1.997) = 0.0229, i.e., the p-value is 0.0229
