If P(win) = 1/3, what is P(lose)?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Brrunno [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

P(lose) = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

P(win) has a 1/3 chance.

We are solving for P(lose)

Note that because P(win) has one chance out of 3, it assumes that P(total) = 3

Subtract: 3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3

P(lose) has a 2/3 chance

So, in this problem you already have the equations set up for how much money each one works. You have Jim, earning a starting amount of $35, plus an additional $3 for every hour he works. You also have John, who gets $8.


The variable in the equations is h, which stands for hours. From there, you can put the three different h values (6, 7, and 8) into the equations to see who gets more money.


For instance, for Day 1, Jim gets 35+3x6 dollars, or 35+18=$53, while John gets 8x6 dollars, or $48. You can substitute in 7 and 8 and do the same process to get the answers for Day 1 and 2.


Hope this helps!

kow [346]

Answer: a) 453  b) 1537

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given , we have

Margin of error : E= 0.025

Critical value for 95% confidence interval : z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

a) The prior estimate of population proportion : p=0.08

Required sample size :-

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2\\\\=0.08(1-0.08)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.025})^2\\\\=452.386816\approx453

The minimum sample size is 453 U.S. adults.

b) Since the prior estimate of population proportion is not available , so we take p= 0.5

Required sample size :-

n=0.5(1-0.5)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2\\\\=0.25(\dfrac{1.96}{0.025})^2\\\\=1536.64\approx1537

The minimum sample size is 1537 U.S. adults.
