At a certain hospital, the probability of a child being born female is 0.51. If 80 babies are born on the a certain day, the pro

Ber [7]

Answer :

0.53

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Probability of female = probability of success on a single trial = 0.51

Number of babies = 80

Probability that more than half of the babies are female : p(X >80/2) = P(X > 40)

The problem can be solved using the binomial probability function :

P(X > 40) = [ p(X= 41) + p(X= 42) +.... +p(X= 80)]

In other to save computation time, we can use the binomial probability calculator

Hence ; P(X > 40) = 0.527 = 0.53

Flip a coin 10 times and record the observed number of heads and tails. For example, with 10 flips one might get 6 heads and 4 t

zepelin [54]

Answer:

The greater the sample size the better is the estimation. A large sample leads to a more accurate result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the table representing the number of heads and tails for all the number of tosses:

Number of tosses n (HEADS) n (TAILS) Ratio

10 3 7 3 : 7

30 14 16 7 : 8

100 60 40 3 : 2

Compute probability of heads for the tosses as follows:

n = 10 tosses

$P(\text{HEADS})=\frac{3}{10}=0.30$

The probability of heads in case of 10 tosses of a coin is -0.20 away from 50/50.

n = 30 tosses

$P(\text{HEADS})=\frac{14}{30}=0.467$

The probability of heads in case of 30 tosses of a coin is -0.033 away from 50/50.

n = 100 tosses

$P(\text{HEADS})=\frac{60}{100}=0.60$

The probability of heads in case of 100 tosses of a coin is 0.10 away from 50/50.

As it can be seen from the above explanation, that as the sample size is increasing the distance between the expected and observed proportion is decreasing.

This happens because, the greater the sample size the better is the estimation. A large sample leads to a more accurate result.

Which shows 0.124 in expanded form? A. ( 1 × 1 10 ) + ( 2 × 1 100 ) + ( 4 × 1 1000 ) B. 1 + ( 2 × 1 100 ) + ( 4 × 1 1000 ) C. 1

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

A. ( 1 × 1 / 10 ) + ( 2 × 1 / 100 ) + ( 4 × 1 / 1000 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is written in expanded form if it shows the sum of the values of the individual digits that make up the number.

To write 0.124 in expanded form, follow these steps:

(i) Take the digits one after the other and multiply it by its value depending on its place.

Taking the first digit - 0

The value is 0 unit, where a unit is 1

Now multiply 0 by 1

=> 0 x 1

=> 0

Taking the second digit - 1

The value is 1 tenth, where a tenth is 1 / 10

Now multiply 1 by 1 / 10

=> 1 x 1 / 10

Taking the third digit - 2

The value is 2 hundredth, where a hundredth is 1 / 100

Now multiply 2 by 1 / 100

=> 2 x 1 / 100

Taking the fourth digit - 4

The value is 4 thousandth, where a thousandth is 1 / 1000

Now multiply 4 by 1 / 1000

=> 4 x 1 / 1000

(ii) Add the results obtained in (i) above

=> (0 x 1) + ( 1 x 1 / 10) + (2 x 1 / 100) + ( 4 x 1 / 1000)

=> ( 1 x 1 / 10) + (2 x 1 / 100) + ( 4 x 1 / 1000)

Therefore,

0.124 in expanded form is ( 1 × 1 / 10 ) + ( 2 × 1 / 100 ) + ( 4 × 1 / 1000 )
