Randomly selecting someone who is over 45 years or over

"45 years or over" includes all of the age groups "45-64", "65-74", and "75 or over". These age groups are disjoint (no individual can belong to more than one group), so the probability of picking someone that's at least of 45 years of age is the sum of the probabilities that a person belongs to any one of these groups. That would be

24.8\%+9.6\%+6.6\%=41\%

Is rolling a 3 standard doe and then rolling a sum greater than 4 when counting the next roll an independent event?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you roll 3 from the standard die and then add it with the next roll to see if the sums are greater than 4.

From this explanation you can see that you use the result from your first roll for the second event, so we can conclude that the event is dependent.  

Imagine if we change the result of the first roll into 5, without adding the second roll we can know that the sum will be greater than 4. The first event result will influence the second event, so it is a dependent event.

Sam traveled 3/4 of a journey by bus. He jogged 1/2 of the remaining distance and walked the rest of the way. If he walked 800 f
Troyanec [42]
Let x = total distance he covered
3x/4         by bus
1/2 . x/4  =  x/8  by jogging
the remaining distance  =  x/8               by walking
thus      x/8 = 800ft
           x =    8 . 800 = 6400ft

A train travels 250 km with a average speed of 75 km/hr and 350 km with 70km/hr and 200 km with average speed of 30km/hr. What w
pentagon [3]

Answer:

53 1/3 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = distance/time

time * average speed = distance

time = distance/(average speed)

250 km at 75 km/h

distance = 250 km

time = (250 km)/(75 km/h) = 3.33333... hours

350 km at 70 km/h

distance = 350 km

time = (350 km)/(70 km/h) = 5 hours

200 km at 30 km/h

distance = 200 km

time = (200 km)/(30 km/h) = 6.6666...  hour

total distance = 250 km + 350 km + 200 km = 800 km

total time = 3.33333... hours + 5 hours + 6.66666... hours = 15 hours

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = (800 km)/(15 hours)

average speed = 53 1/3 km/h

The heights (in inches) and pulse rates (in beats per minute) for a sample of 40 women were measured. Using technology with the
Viktor [21]

Answer:

There is not sufficient evidence  to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the heights and pulse rates of women

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient between the variables h(height in inches) and pulse rates (in beats per minute) is 0.202

Sample size n=40

Level of significane alpha = 0.01

Create null and alternate hypothesis as:

H0: r=0

Ha: r not equal 0

(Two tailed test at 1% significance level)

Sample r = 0.202

r difference = 0.202

test statistic t = \frac{r\sqrt{n-2} }{\sqrt{1-r^2} } \\=\frac{0.202(\sqrt{38} )}{\sqrt{0.9592} } \\=\frac{1.25}{0.9794} \\=1.271

df =n-2 =38

t critical value for 0.01 and df =38 is 2.704

Since our test statistic lies below 2.704, we accept null hypothesis

There is not sufficient evidence  to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the heights and pulse rates of women

Round 6.487 and 2.049 to the hundredths place.<br><br> What is the sum of the rounded numbers?
sergey [27]

Hello there! 6.487 rounded to the nearest hundredths place is 6.49 and 2.049 rounded to the hundredths place is 2.05. The sum of these numbers is 8.54.

Remember: If the number value after the value you are rounding is equal to or greater than 5, round up. If it is less than 5, round down.

With this in mind, let's round the numbers:

First: 6.487 rounded to the hundredths place would be 6.49, since 7 is greater than 5.

Second: 2.049 rounded to the hundredths place would be 2.05, since 9 is greater than 5.

Next, we will add the numbers together

2.05 + 6.49 = 8.54.

So, this is our final answer. I hope this answers your question & have a great day! :)
