First we need to choose from "Posivite Test" column:
\frac{12}{12+78} =  \frac{12}{90} = 0,1333(3)

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

0.13

Explanation:

Using the two-way table, we focus on the column labeled "Positive Test." There are 78+12 = 90 people who had a positive test. Out of these, 12 were not pregnant. This is a probability of 12/90 = 0.133333 = 0.13.

While bowling, Sarah made 5 strikes out of her last 18 frames. David made 9 strikes out his last 25 frames. What is the probabil
Alla [95]

Answer:

1/10 or 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of occurrence of any event = number of favorable event by total /number of occurrence of event.

For Sarah

Given Number of frames = 18

Number of strikes made by her = 5

Therefore by using the above formula to get the probability of striking by Sarah will be 5/18.

__________________________________________________

For David

Given Number of frames = 25

Number of strikes made by him = 9

Therefore by using the above formula to get the probability of striking by David will be 9/25.

__________________________________________________

Since the event of Sarah and David are mutually independent i.e occurrence of one event does not impact the occurrence of other event.

Probability of occurrence of two mutually independent A and B event with Probability P(A) and Probability P(B) is given by P(A) * P(B).

Therefore probability that they both get a strike on their next frame are mutually independent event with probability 5/18 and 9/25 will be calculated by 5/18 * 9/25 = 1/(2*5) = 1/10.

In June 2005, a CBS News/NY Times poll asked a random sample of 1,111 U.S. adults the following question: "What do you think is
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The appropriate null hypothesis is H_0: p = 0.25

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is H_1: p < 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Exactly a year prior to this poll, in June of 2004, it was estimated that roughly 1 out of every 4 U.S. adults believed (at that time) that the war in Iraq was the most important problem facing the country.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still the same, that is, of \frac{1}{4} = 0.25. So

H_0: p = 0.25

We would like to test whether the 2005 poll provides significant evidence that the proportion of U.S. adults who believe that the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the U.S. has decreased since the prior poll.

Decreased, so at the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is less than 0.25, that is:

H_1: p < 0.25

suppose cary could run .5(1/2) of a mile in 4.00 minutes, what is the amount of time it would take cary to reach each distance
Helga [31]

Answer: 0.7272 minutes = 43.632 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Cary could run 5½ miles in 4 minutes,

How minutes would it take her to complete 1 mile?

5½miles = 11/2 miles = 5.5 miles.

5.5 miles = 4 minutes

1 miles = x minute

x = (1 * 4) / 5.5

X = 0.7272 minutes = 43.632 seconds

Cary used 43.632 seconds to complete 1 mile
