The average number of accidents is 3 per month, what is the probability of 1 accident?

Mathematics

tatuchka [14]4 years ago

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 33.33%

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since we have the average number of accidents that occurs in 1 month, and it's equal to 3, we can calculate the probability of 1 accident occurs by dividing it into the average number of accidents, using the following formula:

Probability=\frac{FavorableOutcomes}{Outcomes}*100

Where,

Favorable outcomes are the occurrence of the event, for this case, it's equal to 1.

Outcomes are the possible occurrence of the event, for this case, it's equal to 3.

So, by substituting we have:

Probability=\frac{1}{3}*100

Probability=0.3333*100=33.33

So, the probability will be equal to 33.33%

Have a nice day!

Mark and paula are storing masks. Paula has 70% of the total number of masks. If paula has 840 more masks thatn mark, how many m
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1050 masks per person.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Create an equation to find the total number of masks

2) Solve equation and divide total by 2 to get the number of masks that can be given to both Mark and Paula so that they have equal number.

1) Since Paula has 70% of the total masks, it can be represented as 0.7 * t where t is the variable representing the total number of masks. Mark on the other hand has the remaining number of masks out of 100% which is 30%. We can express that as 0.3. We multiply that by t because he has 30% of the masks. The final equation we have is 0.3t + 840 = 0.7t. 840 because Paula has 840 more masks than Mark.

2) Solve by subtracting 0.3t from both sides leaving you with 0.4t = 840. We divide both sides by 0.4 to get 2100. That is the total number of masks. If we divide that number by 2, we get 1050.

Researchers planning a study of the reading ability of third-grade children want to obtain a 95% confidence interval for the pop
Fed [463]

Answer:

A) M = 3.016

B) M = 9.79

C) 62

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are given;

Population size; n = 100

standard deviation; σ = 12

Formula for the margins of error is;

M = z × σ/√n

At 99% confidence interval, z = 2.58

Thus;

M = 2.58 × 12/√100

M = 3.016

B) n is now equal to 10, thus at same confidence interval used in option A, we have;

M = 2.58 × 12/√10

M = 9.79

C) to solve this, we will use the formula;

n ≥ (zσ/m)²

Where;

z at 95% confidence interval has a value of 1.96

m is the margin of error = 3

Thus;

n ≥ (1.96 × 12/3)²

n ≥ 61.4656

Thus,approximately n = 62
