A cable provider wants to contact customers in a particular telephone exchange to see how satisfied they are with the new digita

l TV service the company has provided. All numbers are in the 443 exchange, so there are 10 comma 000 possible numbers from 443-0000 to 443-9999. If they select the numbers with equal probability: a) What distribution would they use to model the selection? b) What is the probability the number selected will be an even number? c) What is the probability the number selected will end in 666?

Answer:

a) uniform

b) 1/2

c) 1/1000

Step-by-step explanation:

a) "numbers with equal probability" have a uniform distribution.

__

b) Even numbers make up 1/2 of all numbers.

__

c) There are ten such numbers in the range, so the probability is ...

10/10000 = 1/1000

Required information Skip to question A die (six faces) has the number 1 painted on two of its faces, the number 2 painted on th

grigory [225]

Answer:

The change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysing the question one statement at a time.

Before the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space is:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3\}$

And the probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{6}$

$P(1) = \frac{1}{3}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(2) = \frac{1}{2}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{6}$

P(Odd Number) is then calculated as:

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$

After the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space becomes:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3,3\}$

The probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{7}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{7}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2}{7} + \frac{1}{7}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$

Comparing P(Odd Number) before and after

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$ --- Before

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$ --- After

<em>We can conclude that the change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)</em>
