Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>Yes, it is reasonable to expect that more than one subject will experience​ headaches</em></u>

Explanation:

Notice that where it says "assume that 55 subjects are randomly selected ..." there is a typo. The correct statement is "assume that 5 subjects are randomly selected ..."

You are given the table with the probability distribution, assuming, correctly, the binomial distribution with n = 5 and p = 0.732.

  • p = 0.732 is the probability of success (an individual experiences headaches).
  • n = 5 is the number of trials (number of subjects in the sample).

The meaning of the table of the distribution probability is:

The probability that 0 subjects experience headaches is 0.0014; the probability that 1 subject experience headaches is 0.0189, and so on.

To answer whether it <em>is reasonable to expect that more than one subject will experience​ headaches</em>, you must find the probability that:

  • X = 2 or X = 3 or X = 4 or X = 5

That is:

  • P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5).

That is also the complement of P(X = 0) or P(X = 1)

  • 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

From the table:

  • P(X = 0) = 0.0014
  • P(X = 1) = 0.0189

Hence:

  • 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1) = 1 - 0.0014 - 0.0189 = 0.9797

That is very close to 1; thus, it is highly likely that more than 1 subject will experience headaches.

In conclusion, <em>yes, it is reasonable to expect that more than one subject will experience​ headaches</em>

What is the y-intercept of y = 5x - 1?​
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Given Equation: y=5x-1

as we know that the y intercept have, x coordinate(absicasse) equal to 0

so,put x=0 to get y intercept

i.e, y =5×0 -1

i.e, y= <em><u>-</u></em><em><u>1</u></em>

5x+10=7x+4 what is the answer to this equation
Gennadij [26K]

<u>answer:</u>  x = 5

<u>work:</u>

5x+10=7x+4  | subtract 5x and move it over to the 7x, and solve

10 = 2x + 4  | subtract 4 and move it over to the 10, and solve

6 = 2x  | divide by 2

3 = x  | final answer

hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin

Let p denote the current market price for widgets and let x denote a quantity of widgets. The price per widget and the daily sup
natita [175]

Answer:

x = 52.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Demand: p = 0.16x + 16

Supply: p -0.09x + 29

Required

Determine the equilibrium price

This is determined when Demand = Supply

So:

0.16x + 16 = -0.09x + 29

Collect Like Terms

0.16x + 0.09x = 29 - 16

0.25x = 13

Solve for x

x = 13/0.25

x = 52.00

<em>Hence; The equilibrium price is when x = 52.00</em>

Suppose that documentation lists the average sales price of a single-family home in the metropolitan Dallas/Ft. Worth/Irving, Te
Julli [10]

Answer:

"0.0373" seems to be the appropriate solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

n₁ = 43

n₂ = 35

\bar{x_1}=217800

\bar{x_2}=204700

\sigma_1=30300

\sigma_2=33800

Now,

The test statistic will be:

⇒  Z=\frac{\bar{x_1}-\bar{x_2}}\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2} }

On substituting the given values in the above formula, we get

⇒      =\frac{217800-204400}{\sqrt{\frac{(30300)^2}{43} +\frac{(33800)^2}{35} } }

⇒      =\frac{217800-204400}{\sqrt{\frac{918090000}{43} +\frac{1142440000}{35} } }

⇒      =\frac{13400}{7347.93}

⇒      =1.7828

then,

P-value will be:

=  P(Z>1.7828)

=  0.0373
