One plant from the garden is randomly selected. There is a 30% chance that the plant was purchased this year, and there is a 6%

chance that the plant was purchased this year and produces berries. What is the probability that the chosen plant does NOT produce berries, given that the plant was purchased this year? Write the probability as a percent. Round to the nearest tenth if needed. ____________%

Write the correct proportion.<br><br> 5 is to 19 as x is to 250
Alja [10]

This problem is basically asking:

\frac{5}{19} =\frac{x}{250}

Which would mean x=\frac{5*250}{19}=\frac{1250}{19}

Of the population of all fruit flies we wish to give a 90% confidence interval for the fraction which possess a gene which gives
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The margin of error for the 90% confidence interval is of 0.038.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

To this end we have obtained a random sample of 400 fruit flies. We find that 280 of the flies in the sample possess the gene.

This means that n = 400, \pi = \frac{280}{400} = 0.7

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

Give the margin of error for the 90% confidence interval.

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

M = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.7*0.3}{400}}

M = 0.038

The margin of error for the 90% confidence interval is of 0.038.

Suppose the number of insect fragments in a chocolate bar follows a Poisson process with the expected number of fragments in a 2
leonid [27]

Answer:

a)The expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b)0.6004

c)19.607

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denotes the number of fragments in 200 gm chocolate bar with expected number of fragments 10.2

X ~ Poisson(A) where \lambda = \frac{10.2}{200} = 0.051

a)We are supposed to find the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar

\frac{1}{4} \times 200 = 50

50 grams of bar contains expected fragments = \lambda x = 0.051 \times 50=2.55

So, the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b) Now we are supposed to find the probability that you have to eat more than 10 grams of chocolate bar before ending your first fragment

Let X denotes the number of grams to be eaten before another fragment is detected.

P(X>10)= e^{-\lambda \times x}= e^{-0.051 \times 10}= e^{-0.51}=0.6004

c)The expected number of grams to be eaten before encountering the first fragments :

E(X)=\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{0.051}=19.607 grams
