Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 6 seats and 3 boys, 3 girls.

First seat can be given to either boy or a girl.

So there are two ways.

If a boy is selected say, then he has to occupy 3rd and 5th only.

There are 2 ways

Now available positions are 2nd, 4th and 6th, in this girls can be arranged in 3! ways = 6

So total number of ways =

2x2x6 = 24

A large furniture company claims that 65% of all individuals who buy chairs from its stores choose wood chairs, 20% choose plast
Nataly [62]

Answer:

In the sample, 61% chose wooden chairs (4% less than that claimed by the company), 24.2% chose plastic chairs (4.2% more than that claimed by the company), and 14.8 % chose metal chairs (0.2% less than what the company claimed). Therefore, given that these are differences of less than 5%, we can affirm that these samples are consistent with what the company said.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a large furniture company claims that 65% of all individuals who buy chairs from its stores choose wood chairs, 20% choose plastic chairs, and 15% choose metal chairs, and to investigate this claim researchers collected data from a random sample of the companys customers, whose results were 305 wood, 121 plastic, and 74 metal, to determine if the data from the sample consistent with the companys claim the following calculations should be performed:

305 + 121 + 74 = 500

500 = 100

305 = X

305 x 100/500 = X

30,500 / 500 = X

61 = X

500 = 100

121 = X

121 x 100/500 = X

12,100 / 500 = X

24.2 = X

100 - 61 - 24.2 = X

39 - 24.2 = X

14.8 = X

Therefore, in the sample, 61% chose wooden chairs (4% less than that claimed by the company), 24.2% chose plastic chairs (4.2% more than that claimed by the company), and 14.8 % chose metal chairs (0.2% less than what the company claimed). Therefore, given that these are differences of less than 5%, we can affirm that these are samples that are consistent with what the company said.

Stan guessed on all 10 questions of a multiple-choice quiz. Each question has 4 answer choices. What is the probability that he
algol13

ANSWER
0.756

EXPLANATION

Let x represent number of correct answers.

We can find

   P(x = 0 \text{ or } x = 1)

which leads us to

   P(x\ge 2) = 1 - P(x = 0\text{ or }x = 1)

which uses the compliment of P(x = 0\text{ or }x = 1) to find the probability of getting at least 2 questions correct.

Note that since P(x=0) and P(x=1) are mutually exclusive, we have

   P(x = 0\text{ or }x = 1) = P(x=0) + P(x=1)

Then P(x=0) = 3^{10}/4^{10} = (3/4)^{10} as we have 3^{10} to answer the questions incorrectly divided by the total 4^{10} to answer the questions.

Exactly 1 answer correct: P(x=1) = {}_{10}C_1 \cdot(3/4)^9(1/4)^1

Therefore

   \begin{aligned}
P(x \ge 2) &= 1 - P(x = 0\text{ or }x =1) \\
&=1 - \big[P(x=0) + P(x=1)\big] \\
&=1 - \left[ (3/4)^{10} + {}_{10}C_1 \cdot (3/4)^9(1/4)^1 \right] \\
&\approx 0.756
\end{aligned}
