An instructor who taught two sections of Math 161A, the first with 20 students and the second with 30 students, gave a midterm e

xam. After all the students had turned in their exam pa- pers, the instructor randomly ordered them before grading. Consider the first 15 graded exam papers. (a) Find the probability that exactly 10 of these are from the second section. Find the probability that at least 10 of these are from the second section. Find the probability that at least 10 of these are from the same section?

Answer:

<em>The answers are for option (a) 0.2070  (b)0.3798  (c) 0.3938 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given:</em>

<em>Here Section 1 students = 20 </em>

<em> Section 2 students = 30 </em>

<em> Here there are 15 graded exam papers. </em>

<em> (a )Here Pr(10 are from second section) = ²⁰C₅ * ³⁰C₁₀/⁵⁰C₁₅= 0.2070 </em>

<em> (b) Here if x is the number of students copies of section 2 out of 15 exam papers. </em>

<em>  here the distribution is hyper-geometric one, where N = 50, K = 30 ; n = 15 </em>

<em>Then, </em>

<em> Pr( x ≥ 10 ; 15; 30 ; 50) = 0.3798 </em>

<em> (c) Here we have to find that at least 10 are from the same section that means if x ≥ 10 (at least 10 from section B) or x ≤ 5 (at least 10 from section 1) </em>

<em> so, </em>

<em> Pr(at least 10 of these are from the same section) = Pr(x ≤ 5 or x ≥ 10 ; 15 ; 30 ; 50) = Pr(x ≤ 5 ; 15 ; 30 ; 50) + Pr(x ≥ 10 ; 15 ; 30 ; 50) = 0.0140 + 0.3798 = 0.3938 </em>

<em> Note : Here the given distribution is Hyper-geometric distribution </em>

<em> where f(x) = kCₓ)(N-K)C(n-x)/ NCK in that way all these above values can be calculated.</em>

What is the area of triangle EDF?
Ann [662]

Answer:

4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

∠BAC ~ ∠EDF means that the triangles are similar. So the legs of the triangle share the same proportions, even if the sizes are different.

Since they share the same proportions, the same operations can be performed on each base to find the area.

The answer can be found with the knowledge that the area of a triangle is half of the height * width. You know the width of ∠BAC is 4, and the area is 8, so 16 (the area doubled) / 4 is the height. The width and height of ∠BAC are the same, and since the proportions are also the same, the width and height of ∠EDF are both 3. So the area is the width (3) times the height (3) divided by 2.

3*3 = 9

9/2 = 4.5

So the area is 4.5

Suppose the profit a honda dealership makes on the next 5 accords it sells are:564, 1,000, 848, 1,495, 1,348. calculate the stan
stepladder [879]
First we have to find the mean (average)
mean = (564 + 1000 + 848 + 1495 + 1348) / 5 = 5255 / 5 = 1051

now we subtract the mean from every data point, then square it
564 - 1051 = -487......-487^2 = 237169
1000 - 1051 = -51......-51^2 = 2601
848 - 1051 = -203......-203^2 = 41209
1495 - 1051 = 444......444^2 = 197136
1348 - 1051 = 297......297^2 = 88209

now find the mean of the results.....but know when ur dealing with a sample instead of the whole population, u divide by 1 number less...so instead of dividing by 5, u divide by 4.
(237169 + 2601 + 41209 + 197136 + 88209) / 4 = 566324 / 4 = 
141581.....this is called ur variance

now take the square root of the variance and u have ur standard deviation
sqrt (141581) = 376.272 rounds to 376.27 <==
