Answer:

The probability that at least two-third of vehicles in the sample turn is 0.4207.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of vehicles that turn left or right.

The proportion of the vehicles that turn is, <em>p</em> = 2/3.

The nest <em>n</em> = 50 vehicles entering this intersection from the east, is observed.

Any vehicle taking a turn is independent of others.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 50 and <em>p</em> = 2/3.

But the sample selected is too large and the probability of success is close to 0.50.

So a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied to approximate the distribution of <em>X</em> if the following conditions are satisfied:

  1. np ≥ 10
  2. n(1 - p) ≥ 10

Check the conditions as follows:

np=50\times \frac{2}{3}=33.333>10\\\\n(1-p)=50\times \frac{1}{3}= = 16.667>10

Thus, a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied.

So, X\sim N(np, np(1-p))

Compute the probability that at least two-third of vehicles in the sample turn as follows:

P(X\geq \frac{2}{3}\times 50)=P(X\geq 33.333)=P(X\geq 34)

                        =P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{34-33.333}{\sqrt{50\times \frac{2}{3}\times\frac {1}{3}}})

                        =P(Z>0.20)\\=1-P(Z

Thus, the probability that at least two-third of vehicles in the sample turn is 0.4207.

Which could be the length?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

The possible length of the third side = 1 ft, 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft, 7 ft, 8 ft, 9 ft, 10 ft or 11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

two side of the triangle, 6 ft and 6 ft

let the third side of the triangle = x

Apply the rules of length of a triangle to determine the third side of the triangle.

Based on this rule:  (6 - 6)  < x < (6 + 6)

                                    0 < x < 12 ft

Therefore, the length of the third side will be greater than 0 but less than 12 ft

The possible length of the third side = 1 ft, 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft, 7 ft, 8 ft, 9 ft, 10 ft or 11 ft
