3. Two balls are drawn in succession without replacement from an urn containing 4 red balls and 3 blue balls. Find the probabili

choli [55]

Answer:

X ____ 0 ______ 1 _______ 2

P(x) __ 1/7 _____ 4/7 _____ 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of red balls = 4

Number of Blue balls = 3

Total number of balls = (4 + 3) = 7

Picking without replacement :

Number of picks = 2

1st pick is red :

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

USing combination formula :

nCr = n! / (n-r)! r!

Total possible outcome :

7C2 = 7! / 5!2! = 7*6 / 2 = 42 / 2 = 21

X = number of red

For red = 0;

P(x =0) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(x = 0)

Required outcome : [4C0 * 3C2)]

P(x = 0) = [(4C0 * 3C2)] / 21 = (1*3)/21 = 3/21 = 1/7

P(x = 1)

Required outcome : [4C1 * 3C1)]

P(x = 1) = [(4C1 * 3C1)] / 21 = (4*3)/21 = 12/21 = 4/7

P(x = 2)

Required outcome : [4C2 * 3C0)]

P(x = 2) = [(4C2 * 3C0)] / 21 = (6*1)/21 = 6/21 = 2/7

Hence ;

X ____ 0 ______ 1 _______ 2

P(x) __ 1/7 _____ 4/7 _____ 2/7

Give a correct interpretation of a 99% confidence level of 0.328 < μ < 0.486.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Lower bound of the population mean is 0.328

Upper bound of the population mean is 0.486

Confidence level is 99%

Therefore, the correct interpolation of the confidence interval is that we are 99% confident that the true value of the population mean is between 0.328 and 0.486

If sinA=√3-1/2√2,then prove that cos2A=√3/2 prove that

Ivan

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf cos2A =\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that the value of sinA is √3-1/2√2 , and we need to prove that the value of cos2A is √3/2 .

<u>Given</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

• $\sf\implies sinA =\dfrac{\sqrt3-1}{2\sqrt2}$

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>Prove</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

• $\sf\implies cos2A =\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}$

<u>Proof </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

We know that ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 - 2sin^2A$

Therefore , here substituting the value of sinA , we have ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 - 2\bigg( \dfrac{\sqrt3-1}{2\sqrt2}\bigg)^2$

Simplify the whole square ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 -2\times \dfrac{ 3 +1-2\sqrt3}{8}$

Add the numbers in numerator ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1-2\times \dfrac{4-2\sqrt3}{8}$

Multiply it by 2 ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 - \dfrac{ 4-2\sqrt3}{4}$

Take out 2 common from the numerator ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1-\dfrac{2(2-\sqrt3)}{4}$

Simplify ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 -\dfrac{ 2-\sqrt3}{2}$

Subtract the numbers ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = \dfrac{ 2-2+\sqrt3}{2}$

Simplify,

$\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\sf cos2A =\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}} }$

Hence Proved !

There are two cookie jars: jar 1 contains two chocolate chip cookies and three plain cookies, and jar 2 contains one chocolate c

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

P = 0.55 or 55 %

Step-by-step explanation:

First step: Fred has probability of 0,5 when chossing jar 1 or jar 2

Second step : The probability of chossing one chocolate chp cookie in jar 1 is 3/5 and from the jar 2 is 1/2

Then the probability of Fred to get a chocolate chip cookie is

P ( get a chocolate chip cookie ) =( 0.5 * 3/5) +( 0.5* 1/2)

P = 0.3 + 0.25

P = 0.55 or 55 %
