Some parts of California are particularly earthquake-prone. Suppose that in one metropolitan area, 33% of all homeowners are ins

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

(a) The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.33)^{x}\ (1-0.33)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(b) The most likely value for X is 1.32.

(c) The probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance is 0.4015.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is defined as the number among the four homeowners who have earthquake insurance.

The probability that a homeowner has earthquake insurance is, p = 0.33.

The random sample of homeowners selected is, n = 4.

The event of a homeowner having an earthquake insurance is independent of the other three homeowners.

(a)

All the statements above clearly indicate that the random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 4 and p = 0.33.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.33)^{x}\ (1-0.33)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(b)

The most likely value of a random variable is the expected value.

The expected value of a Binomial random variable is:

$E(X)=np$

Compute the expected value of X as follows:

$E(X)=np$

$=4\times 0.33\\=1.32$

Thus, the most likely value for X is 1.32.

(c)

Compute the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

$=1-{4\choose 0}\ (0.33)^{0}\ (1-0.33)^{4-0}-{4\choose 1}\ (0.33)^{1}\ (1-0.33)^{4-1}\\\\=1-0.20151121-0.39700716\\\\=0.40148163\\\\\approx 0.4015$

Thus, the probability that at least two of the four selected have earthquake insurance is 0.4015.

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $11 plus an additional $0.16 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs $29 p

Andrew [12]

Answer:

The plans will cost the same when the amount you have to pay for talking for "x" minutes on Plan A is the same has what you have to pay for talking for the same number of "x" minutes when using Plan B.

$$ Plan A = $$ Plan B

To find the charge on each plan we add the base rate to the per minute call rate for each.

Plan A = $27 + $0.11x

Plan B = $13 + $0.15x

Let's drop the $ sign for now and get rid of the decimal point by multiplying by 100.

2700 + 11x = 1300 + 15x

Subtracting 11x and 1300 from both sides:

4x = 1400

x = 350 min.

Using this result the plans both cost $65.50 for 350 min of talk time.
