The speed with which utility companies can resolve problems is very important. GTC, the Georgetown Telephone Company, reports it

brilliants [131]

Answer:

(a) 11.25 and 1.68

(b) 0.1651

(c) 0.3903

(d) 0.6865

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that GTC, the Georgetown Telephone Company, reports it can resolve customer problems the same day they are reported in 75% of the cases and suppose the 15 cases reported today are representative of all complaints.

This situation can be represented through Binomial distribution as;

$P(X=r)= \binom{n}{r}p^{r}(1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,....$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 15

r = number of success

p = probability of success which in our question is % of cases in

which customer problems are resolved on the same day, i.e.;75%

So, here X ~ $Binom(n=15,p=0.75)$

(a) Expected number of problems to be resolved today = E(X)

E(X) = $\mu$ = n * p = 15 * 0.75 = 11.25

Standard deviation = $\sigma$ = $\sqrt{n*p*(1-p)}$ = $\sqrt{15*0.75*(1-0.75)}$ = 1.68

(b) Probability that 10 of the problems can be resolved today = P(X = 10)

P(X = 10) = $\binom{15}{10}0.75^{10}(1-0.75)^{15-10}$

= $3003*0.75^{10} *0.25^{5}$ = 0.1651

(c) Probability that 10 or 11 of the problems can be resolved today is given by = P(X = 10) + P(X = 11)

= $\binom{15}{10}0.75^{10}(1-0.75)^{15-10}+\binom{15}{11}0.75^{11}(1-0.75)^{15-11}$

= $3003*0.75^{10} *0.25^{5} + 1365*0.75^{11} *0.25^{4}$ = 0.3903

(d) Probability that more than 10 of the problems can be resolved today is

given by = P(X > 10)

P(X > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15)

= $\binom{15}{11}0.75^{11}(1-0.75)^{15-11}+\binom{15}{12}0.75^{12}(1-0.75)^{15-12} + \binom{15}{13}0.75^{13}(1-0.75)^{15-13}+\binom{15}{14}0.75^{14}(1-0.75)^{15-14} + \binom{15}{15}0.75^{15}(1-0.75)^{15-15}$

= $1365*0.75^{11} *0.25^{4} + 455*0.75^{12} *0.25^{3}+105*0.75^{13} *0.25^{2} + 15*0.75^{14} *0.25^{1}+1*0.75^{15} *0.25^{0}$

= 0.6865

Mean, Median, Mode and Range. Easy hard math. Please show work and give answers . Need help appreciate you all

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

:)

Step-by-step explanation:

quiz scores:

a. arrange them all from least to greatest to figure out the median first

your quiz: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 middle # = 17 median = 17

friend's quiz: 12, 13, 17, 20, 20 middle # = 17 median = 17

now for mean add all of your quiz scores up and divide by how many #s

15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 = 85 / 5 = 17 mean = 17

now your friend's:

12 + 13 + 17 + 20 + 20 = 82 / 5 = 16.4 mean = 16.4

mode is which number is used the most

your mode = you don't have a mode your friend's mode = 20

b. you have a higher mean than your friend

world populations:

a. range is to subtract the smallest number from the largest

803 - 31 = 772

b. mean is adding it all up and dividing by how many numbers there are:

803 + 487 + 348 + 368 + 730 + 31 = 2767 / 6 = 461.17

median is arranging them in order and finding the middle #

31, 348, 368, 487, 730, 803

368 + 487 = 855 / 2 = 427.5

mean = 461.17

median = 427.5

mode = no mode

tomato plants:

a. range is subtracting the smallest from the largest

52 - 36 = 16

b. mean is adding all the #s and dividing by how many #s there are:

36 + 45 + 52 + 40 + 38 +41 + 50 + 48 = 350 / 8 = 43.75

median is the middle from least to greatest

36, 38, 40, 41, 45, 48, 50, 52

41 + 45 = 86 / 2 = 43

mean = 43.75

median = 43

mode = no mode

hope this helps! :)

It’s the difference between the y values divided by two and subtracted from the bigger one. And the same thing for x values. U are kinda finding the second one
