A consulting firm has received 2 Super Bowl playoff tickets from one of its clients. To be fair, the firm is randomly selecting

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Therefore the only statement that is not true is b.)

Step-by-step explanation:

There employees are 6 secretaries, 5 consultants and 4 partners in the firm.

a.) The probability that a secretary wins in the first draw

= $\frac{number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} secreataries}{total \hspace{0.1cm} number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} employees} = \frac{6}{15}$

b.) The probability that a secretary wins a ticket on second draw. It has been given that a ticket was won on the first draw by a consultant.

p(secretary wins on second draw | consultant wins on first draw)

= $\frac{p((consultant \hspace{0.1cm} wins \hspace{0.1cm} on \hspace{0.1cm} first \hspace{0.1cm}draw)\cap( secretary\hspace{0.1cm} wins\hspace{0.1cm} on second \hspace{0.1cm}draw))}{p(consultant \hspace{0.1cm} wins \hspace{0.1cm} on \hspace{0.1cm} first \hspace{0.1cm}draw)}$

= $\frac{\frac{5}{15} \times \frac{6}{14}}{\frac{5}{15} } = \frac{6}{14}$ .

The probability that a ticket was won on the first draw by a consultant a secretary wins a ticket on second draw = $\frac{6}{15}$ is not true.

The probability that a secretary wins on the second draw = $\frac{number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} secretaries \hspace{0.1cm} remaining } { number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} employees \hspace{0.1cm} remaining} = \frac{6 - 1}{15 - 1} = \frac{5}{14}$

c.) The probability that a consultant wins on the first draw =

$\frac{number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} consultants \hspace{0.1cm} } { number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} employees \hspace{0.1cm} } = \frac{5 }{15} = \frac{1}{3}$

d.) The probability of two secretaries winning both tickets

= (probability of a secretary winning in the first draw) × (The probability that a secretary wins on the second draw)

= $\frac{6}{15} \times \frac{5}{14} = \frac{1}{7}$

Therefore the only statement that is not true is b.)

How much interest is earned on a principal of $9.02 invested at an interest

kow [346]

To find the simple interest, we multiply 9.02 × 0.08 × 3 to get that: $2.16- answer

Question down below

Bas_tet [7]

The answer would be 137 degrees because of supplementary angles of x and 43 degrees. Then the angle opposite of x (z) is the same as x.

A group of 54 college students from a certain liberal arts college were randomly sampled and asked about the number of alcoholic

Ket [755]

Answer:

$t=\frac{5.25-4.73}{\frac{3.98}{\sqrt{54}}}=0.9601$

P-value

First we find the degrees of freedom given by:

$df = n-1= 54-1=53$

Since is a two-sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(t_{53}>0.9601)=0.3414$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=5.25$ represent the sample mean

$s=3.98$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=54$ sample size

$\mu_o =4.73$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean differs from 4.73, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu =4.73$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 4.73$

Since we know don't the population deviation, is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{5.25-4.73}{\frac{3.98}{\sqrt{54}}}=0.9601$

P-value

First we find the degrees of freedom given by:

$df = n-1= 54-1=53$

Since is a two-sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(t_{53}>0.9601)=0.3414$
