Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 + x = 14/15

we need to get a common denominator 15

3/5 * 3/3 = 9/15

9/15 + x = 14/15

subtract 9/15 from each side

9/15 - 9/15 + x = 14/15 - 9/15

x = 5/15

this simplifies  divide the top and bottom by 5

x = 1/3

Assume that 63% of people are left-handed. If we select 5 people at random, find the probability of each outcome described below
mash [69]

Answer:

a. 0.9931

b. 0.3423

c. 0.3907

d. 0.2670

e. 3.15

f. 1.0796

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the variable that said the number of left-handed people follow a Binomial distribution, so the probability is:

P(x)=nCx*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}

nCx is calculated as:

nCx=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Where x is the number of left-handed people, n is the number of people selected at random and p is the probability that a person is left--handed. So P(x) is:

P(x)=5Cx*0.63^{x}*(1-0.63)^{5-x}

Then the probabilities P(0), P(1), P(2), P(3), P(4) and P(5) are:

P(0)=5C0*0.63^{0}*(1-0.63)^{5-0}=0.0069

P(1)=5C1*0.63^{1}*(1-0.63)^{5-1}=0.0590

P(2)=5C2*0.63^{2}*(1-0.63)^{5-2}=0.2011

P(3)=5C3*0.63^{3}*(1-0.63)^{5-3}=0.3423

P(x)=5C4*0.63^{4}*(1-0.63)^{5-4}=0.2914

P(x)=5C5*0.63^{5}*(1-0.63)^{5-5}=0.0993

Then, the probability P(x≥1) that there are some lefties among the 5 people is:

P(x≥1) = P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)

P(x≥1) = 0.0590 + 0.2011 + 0.3423 + 0.2914 + 0.0993 = 0.9931

The probability P(3) that there are exactly 3 lefties in the group is:

P(3) = 0.3423

The probability P(x≥4) that there are at least 4 lefties in the group is:

P(x≥4) = P(4) + P(5) = 0.2914 + 0.0993 = 0.3907

The probability P(x≤2) that there are no more than 2 lefties in the group is:

P(x≤2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) = 0.0069 + 0.0590 + 0.2011 = 0.2670

On the other hand, the expected value E(x) and standard deviation S(x) of the variable that follows a binomial distribution is:

E(x)=np=5(0.63)=3.15\\S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5(0.63)(1-0.63)}=1.0796

Which sample is representative of the population being studied?
Lesechka [4]
First, let's break down what the difference between a sample and population is. A sample is a small part or quantity intended to show what the whole is like. A population is all inhabitants of a town, country, or the world. Samples are only representative of the population if the data collected is being collected in a fair manner. In answer choices A - C, the researcher is collecting data in locations specific to what is being studied. The outcome is likely to be bias because of the method in which the data is being collected. It is for that reason that the correct answer is D. To learn how many students at her school spend more than $10 on books in a month, Mia speaks to every sixth student she meets in the school hallway.
