Answer:

Probability that exactly one person says he or she enjoys the beach = 80%

Check Explanation for how to get this and which error the studemt that made the 100% claim must have made.

Step-by-step explanation:

The simulation presented is that for a series of two people sample.

Numbers 0 to 6 represents that the beach-goer enjoys going to the beach and numbers 7 to 9 represents that the beach-goer doesn't enjoy going to the beach.

So, the simulation is then obtained to be

(5,8) (2,7) (0,9) (0,2) (9,0) (1,9) (4,7) (0,3) (6,7) (7,5)

Using the simulation, estimate the probability that exactly one person says he or she enjoys the beach

From the simulation, the ones with exactly one of the two numbers ranging from 0 to 6 to indicate enjoying going to the beach include

(5,8) (2,7) (0,9) (9,0) (1,9) (4,7) (6,7) (7,5)

The probability of an event is defined and expressed as the number of elements in that event divided by the total number of elements in the sample space.

Probabilty that exactly one person says he or she enjoys the beach = (8/10) = 0.80 = 80%

The student claims that this probability is 100%, but the other two simulations that did not satisfy the condition of exactly one person saying that he or she enjoys the beach include

(0,2) and (0,3), which show that in the two cases, the two participants both expressed enjoying going to the beach.

The student's error must have been in counting these two simulations as part of 'exactly one person saying he or she enjoys the beach' which is indeed an error.

Hope this Helps!!!

∆ABC, &lt;B=90 •<br>|AC|=50cm |BCI=14cm Find AB.​
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = 50 cm

BC = 14 cm

Pythagorean theorem,

AB² + BC² = AC²

AB² + 14² = 50²

AB² + 196 = 2500

AB² =  2500 - 196

AB² = 2304

AB = √2304

AB = 48 cm

Don’t get this question , need some help thankssss
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

PQ = 37 Km

Step-by-step explanation:

let PQ = x , then

PR =  x + 15 and QR = 3(x + 15) = 3x + 45

sum the parts and equate to 245

x + x + 15 + 3x + 45 = 245 , that is

5x + 60 = 245 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

5x = 185 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 37

then

PQ = x = 37 Km
