Must have third quartile of a data set be less than the maximum value? Explain.

1 answer:

6 0

Since there is an even number of values, we need the mean of the middle two values to find the first quartile: The lower half of a data set is the set of all values that are to the left of the median valuewhen the data has been put into increasing order.

Christine has always been weak in mathematics. Based on her performance prior to the final exam in Calculus, there is a 51% chan

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

a) 0.3270 = 32.70% probability that Christine fails the course

b) 0.3917 = 39.17% probability that she had found someone to help

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

61% probability that Christine find a coach.

100 - 61 = 39% probability that Christine does not find a coach.

With a coach, a 21% probability of failing.

Without a coach, a 51% probability of failing.

a. What is the probability that Christine fails the course?

21% of 61%(finds a tutor) plus 51% of 39%(does not find a tutor). So

P = 0.21*0.61 + 0.51*0.39 = 0.327.

0.327 = 32.7% probability that Christine fails the course

b. Christine ends up failing the course. What is the probability that she had found someone to help?

This can be formulated by the Bayes formula:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}$

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening given that A happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening given that B happened.

In this question.

P(B|A) is the probability of finding a tutor given that she failed.

P(B) is the probability of finding a tutor. So P(B) = 0.61.

P(A|B) is the probability of failing when finding a tutor. So P(A|B) = 0.21

P(A) is the probability of failing. So P(A) = 0.327.

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.61*0.21}{0.327} = 0.3917$

0.3917 = 39.17% probability that she had found someone to help

Which of the following is the product of the rational expression shown below

wolverine [178]

Option C: $\frac{x^{2}-9}{x^{2}-4}$ is the product of the rational expression.

Explanation:

The given rational expression is $\frac{x+3}{x+2} \cdot \frac{x-3}{x-2}$

We need to determine the product of the rational expression.

Product of the rational expression:

Let us multiply the rational expression to determine the product of the rational expression.

Thus, we have;

$\frac{(x+3)(x-3)}{(x+2)(x-2)}$

Let us use the identity $(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2$ in the above expression.

Thus, we get;

$\frac{x^{2} -3^2}{x^{2} -2^2}$

Simplifying the terms, we get;

$\frac{x^{2}-9}{x^{2}-4}$

Thus, the product of the rational expression is $\frac{x^{2}-9}{x^{2}-4}$

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

Help, please the question and thank you

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If A = (2, 3) then a dilation of scale factor 2 means that the x and y coordinates are multiplied by 2, so x = 2 x 2 = 4 and y = 3 x 2 = 6, so A' = (4, 6)
