There are 122,100 public school teachers in Ohio and Ohio has a population of 11.6 million people. Illinois has a population of 12.9 million people. If the number of public school teachers per capita in Illinois was proportional to that of Ohio, how many public school teachers would we expect Illinois to have?
This problem uses proportionality or the relationship between two values. Typically, proportions are expressed as fractions. So, we can set this up as
and we can use this to express both of our values. So, for Ohio, we have
and for Illinois we have
. Now, because they are proportional, we can set them equal to each other and we get
. Now we can cross multiply to get
. To get the
alone on one side, we divide by
and we get 124,662.931034, which is about equal to 124,663.
Therefore, we expect Illinois to have 124,663 public school teachers
Answer:
(a) 0.4096
(b) 0.64
(c) 0.7942
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that the player wins is,
Then the probability that the player losses is,
The player is playing the video game with 4 different opponents.
It is provided that when the player is defeated by an opponent the game ends.
All the possible ways the player can win is: {L, WL, WWL, WWWL and WWWW)
(a)
The results from all the 4 opponents are independent, i.e. the result of a game played with one opponent is unaffected by the result of the game played with another opponent.
The probability that the player defeats all four opponents in a game is,
P (Player defeats all 4 opponents) =
Thus, the probability that the player defeats all four opponents in a game is 0.4096.
(b)
The probability that the player defeats at least two opponents in a game is,
P (Player defeats at least 2) = 1 - P (Player losses the 1st game) - P (Player losses the 2nd game) =
Thus, the probability that the player defeats at least two opponents in a game is 0.64.
(c)
Let <em>X</em> = number of times the player defeats all 4 opponents.
The probability that the player defeats all four opponents in a game is,
P(WWWW) = 0.4096.
Then the random variable
The probability distribution of binomial is:
The probability that the player defeats all the 4 opponents at least once is,
P (<em>X</em> ≥ 1) = 1 - P (<em>X</em> < 1)
= 1 - P (<em>X</em> = 0)
Thus, the probability that the player defeats all the 4 opponents at least once is 0.7942.
