What is the probability of rolling a 6 sided die and getting a 4 or a number divisible by 3. A) 1/3 B) 1/18 C) 2/3 D) 1/2

1 answer:

6 0

Let
Event A = rolling a 4 on a single die
Event B = rolling a number divisible by 3 (3 or 6) on a single die

There are three outcomes possible in total if either event A happens or event B happens. This is out of six outcomes total.

Divide the values and reduce: 3/6 = 1/2

Final Answer: Choice D) 1/2

According to a study done by Wakefield Research, the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is 0.47.

UNO [17]

Answer:

Probability that the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5 is 0.19766.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that according to a study done by Wake field Research, the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is 0.47.

Suppose a random sample of 200 Americans is asked to disclose whether they can order a meal in a foreign language.

Let $\hat p$ = sample proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language

The z-score probability distribution for sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{ \hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion

p = population proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language = 0.47

n = sample of Americans = 200

Probability that the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5 is given by = P( $\hat p$ > 0.50)

P( $\hat p$ > 0.06) = P( $\frac{ \hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ > $\frac{0.5-0.47}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{200} } }$ ) = P(Z > 0.85) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 0.85)

= 1 - 0.80234 = 0.19766

Now, in the z table the P(Z $\leq$ x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.85 in the z table which has an area of 0.80234.

Therefore, probability that the proportion of Americans who can order a meal in a foreign language is greater than 0.5 is 0.19766.

Which function has the greatest rate of change on the interval from x = 3 pi over 2 to x = 2π?

vodka [1.7K]

The average rate of change for the function f(x) can be calculated from the following equation
$\frac{f( x_{2})-f( x_{1} )}{ x_{2} - x_{1} }$

By applying the last formula on the given equations
(1) the first function f
from the table f(3π/2) = -2 and f(2π) = 0
∴ The average rate of f = $\frac{f(2 \pi)-f( \frac{3 \pi}{2} )}{2 \pi - \frac{3 \pi}{2} } = \frac{0-(-2)}{ \frac{\pi}{2} }= \frac{2}{ \frac{\pi}{2} } = \frac{4}{\pi}$

(2) the second function g(x)
from the graph g(3π/2) = -2 and g(2π) = 0
∴ The average rate of g = $\frac{g(2 \pi)-g( \frac{3 \pi}{2} )}{2 
\pi - \frac{3 \pi}{2} } = \frac{0-(-2)}{ \frac{\pi}{2} }= \frac{2}{ 
\frac{\pi}{2} } = \frac{4}{\pi}$

(3) the third function h(x) = 6 sin x +1
∴ h(3π/2) = 6 sin (3π/2) + 1 = 6 *(-1) + 1 = -5
 h(2π) = 6 sin (2π) + 1 = 6 * 0 + 1 = 1
∴ The average rate of h = $\frac{f(2 \pi)-f( \frac{3 \pi}{2} )}{2 
\pi - \frac{3 \pi}{2} } = \frac{1-(-5)}{ \frac{\pi}{2} }= \frac{6}{ 
\frac{\pi}{2} } = \frac{12}{\pi}$

By comparing the results, The function which has the greatest rate of change is h(x)


So, the correct answer is option C) h(x)
