Answer:

(a)\dfrac{15}{32}

(b) 17:15

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The roulette wheel has 32 slots (inclusive of 0 and 00)

Number of Odd Numbers between 1 to 30 =15

Since you are placing a bet that the outcome is an odd number.

P(\text{Winning})=\dfrac{\text{Number of Odd Numbers}}{\text{Total Number of Slots}} \\=\dfrac{15}{32}

(b) The actual odds against​ winning

\text{Actual Odds against Winning})=\dfrac{32-15}{15}\\=\dfrac{17}{15}

Therefore, the actual odds against​ winning are 17:15

You first have to equalize all of the denominator

2/3 will be equal to :  8/12

Total of their practice time would be :

11/12 + 8/12    = 19/12 hours

The heights of baby giraffe are normally distributed with a mean of 63.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. If 100 b
ANEK [815]

Answer:

P(\bar X

And we can solve this using the following z score formula:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And if we use this formula we got:

z = \frac{63-63.6}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{100}}}= -2.4

So we can find this probability equivalently like this:

P( Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(63.6,2.5)  

Where \mu=63.6 and \sigma=2.5

We select n =100. Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

We want this probability:

P(\bar X

And we can solve this using the following z score formula:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And if we use this formula we got:

z = \frac{63-63.6}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{100}}}= -2.4

So we can find this probability equivalently like this:

P( Z
