A survey on healthy choices was given to gym members at Work It Out. The results showed that 90% of its members drank protein sh

akes. Of the members who drank protein shakes, 30% took weight-loss medication whereas only 10% of members who did NOT drink protein shakes took weight-loss medication. What is the probability that a gym member does NOT take weight-loss medication?

Answer:

Probability that a gym member does not take weight-loss medication = 0.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E be the event of choosing a gym member who drank protein shakes and W be the event of choosing a gym member who took weight loss medication.

Probability that a gym member drank protein shakes = P(E) = 0.9

Probability that a gym member does not drink protein shakes = P(not E) = 0.1

E and W are independent events.

By using Bayes Theorem, P(E and W) = P(E)*P(W)

Probability that a gym member drank protein shakes and took weight loss medication = P(E and W) = 0.3*0.9 = 0.27

Probability that a gym member took weight-loss medication = P(W) = 0.1 + 0.27 = 0.37

(10% of members who did not drink protein shakes took weight-loss medication)

Therefore, Probability that a gym member does not take weight loss medication = P(not W) = 1 - 0.37 = 0.63

The graph of a function f(x) is shown below: plot ordered pairs negative 1, negative 3 and 0, 1 and 1, 2.2 and 2, 3
JulijaS [17]

we have the points

A(-1,-3)\\B(0,1)\\C(1,2.2)\\D(2,3)      

Using a graphing tool

see the attached figure  

the domain is the interval---------> [-1,2]

-1 \leq x\leq 2      

the range is the interval--------> [-3,3]

-3 \leq y\leq 3  

therefore

<u>the answer is the option D</u>

integers from  -1 \leq x\leq 2

A process produces batches of a chemical whose impurity concentrations follow a normal distribution with a variance of175. A ran
Tom [10]

Answer:

the probability that the sample variance exceeds 3.10 is 0.02020 ( 2,02%)

Step-by-step explanation:

since the variance  S² of the batch follows a normal distribution , then for a sample n of  20 distributions , then the random variable Z:

Z= S²*(n-1)/σ²

follows a χ² ( chi-squared) distribution with (n-1) degrees of freedom

since

S² > 3.10 , σ²= 1.75 , n= 20

thus

Z > 33.65

then from χ² distribution tables:

P(Z > 33.65) = 0.02020

therefore the probability that the sample variance exceeds 3.10 is 0.02020 ( 2,02%)
