You wish to roll a 7 on and 8-sided die. What is the probability that the first 7 happens on the 3rd, 4th, or 5th try?

7 0

Answer:

0.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of rolling a 7 on a 8-sided die will always be:

1/8

We know that for the first two tries that there is 7/8 chance that the die will land on anything but a 7:

=(7/8)\cdot{(7/8)}=49/64=0.77

For the die to land on a 7 the 3rd, 4th and 5th try is:

=(1/8)\cdot{(1/8)}\cdot{(1/8)}=1/512

The probability is therefore:

{1/512)\cdot{(49/64)}=49/32768=0.00149

The probability that the die will land on a 7 not on the first and second try but on the 3rd, 4th and 5th try is 0.15%

A random sample of individuals is selected from a population with μ , and a treatment is administered to each individual in the
Ghella [55]

Answer:

A) THE MEAN DIFFERENCE = 22.2 - 20 = 2.2

B) HERE WE NEED TO CALCULATE THE MARGIN OF ERROR

AS GIVEN THE VARIANCE = 384

THEREFORE STANDARD DEVIATION = (384)^(1/2) = 19.59

THE MARGIN OF ERROR = STANDARD DEVIATION / SQRT(N) = 19.59/SQRT(25) = 19.59/5 = 3.91

C) AS THE SAMPLE SIZE IS LESS THEN 30 THEREFORE WE WILL DO IT BY THE T TEST

We need to test the null H0 : µ = 20 against the TWO-sided alternative H1 : µ\neq 20, at level α = 0.05. Since n is SMALL, we will do a SMALL-sample T-test. The rejection region is T >Tα = 1.96OR T<-Tα = -1.96, using the normal table.

T= (X − µ0) /(S/√ n) = (22.2 − 20)/( 19.59/ √ 25) = 0.56 Since T = 0.56 < 1.96, H0 is ACCEPTED. Thus, there is significant evidence at 5% signifi- cance level .

Why do we square the residuals when using the least-squares line method to find the line of best fit?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

We square the residuals when using the least-squares line method to find the line of best fit because we believe that huge negative residuals (i.e., points well below the line) are just as harmful as large positive residuals (i.e., points that are high above the line).

<h3>What do you mean by Residuals?</h3>

We treat both positive and negative disparities equally by squaring the residual values.  We cannot discover a single straight line that concurrently minimizes all residuals. The average (squared) residual value is instead minimized.

We might also take the absolute values of the residuals rather than squaring them. Positive disparities are viewed as just as harmful as negative ones under both strategies.
