About 13% of the population of a large country is nervous around strangersnervous around strangers. If two people are randomly

Molodets [167]

Answer:

1.69% probability both are nervous around strangers.

24.31% probability at least one is nervous around strangers.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are nervous around strangers, or they are not. The people are chosen randomly, which means that the probability of a person being nervous around strangers is independent from other people. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

About 13% of the population of a large country is nervous around strangers.

This means that $p = 0.13$ .

Two people are randomly selected

This means that $n = 2$ .

What is the probability both are nervous around strangers?

This is $P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.13)^{2}.(0.87)^{0} = 0.0169$

1.69% probability both are nervous around strangers.

What is the probability at least one is nervous around strangersnervous around strangers?

This is $P(X \geq 1)$

$P(X \geq 1) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}.(0.13)^{1}.(0.87)^{1} = 0.2262$

$P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.13)^{2}.(0.87)^{0} = 0.0169$

$P(X \geq 1) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.2262 + 0.0169 = 0.2431$

24.31% probability at least one is nervous around strangers.

Problem 5.

Orlov [11]

Answer:

The amount of water he should pour in ounces(that is the only units the cup measures) is 16 + 4 = 20 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

He is told to dissolve a medicine he has in 1 pint 4 ounces of water . He has a measuring cup marked in ounces .This means he can only measure the water quantity in ounces.

He definitely have to convert the pints to ounces.

1 pint = 16 ounces

Recall he has to dissolve the medicine in 1 pint 4 ounces of water.

Since 1 pint is equals to 16 ounces therefore, 16 ounces + 4 ounces = 20 ounces.

The amount of water he should pour in ounces(that is the only units the cup measures) is 16 + 4 = 20 ounces

From the following information, determine the number of miles driven. Choose the right answer.

drek231 [11]

Operating cost
= Gas/Oil + Repair/Maintenance cost
= $1,700+ $650
= $2350

Miles driven
= $2350 ÷ $0.14
= 16,785.71
= 16,786 (round off)

Answer is A
