A: High School P, because it has the lowest <span>σ
B: High School N, because it has the highest mean</span>
Answer:
- P(≥1 working) = 0.9936
- She raises her odds of completing the exam without failure by a factor of 13.5, from 11.5 : 1 to 155.25 : 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Assuming the failure is in the calculator, not the operator, and the failures are independent, the probability of finishing with at least one working calculator is the complement of the probability that both will fail. That is ...
... P(≥1 working) = 1 - P(both fail) = 1 - P(fail)² = 1 - (1 - 0.92)² = 0.9936
2. The odds in favor of finishing an exam starting with only one calculator are 0.92 : 0.08 = 11.5 : 1.
If two calculators are brought to the exam, the odds in favor of at least one working calculator are 0.9936 : 0.0064 = 155.25 : 1.
This odds ratio is 155.25/11.5 = 13.5 times as good as the odds with only one calculator.
_____
My assessment is that there is significant gain from bringing a backup. (Personally, I might investigate why the probability of failure is so high. I have not had such bad luck with calculators, which makes me wonder if operator error is involved.)
Since Joann receives $10 per hour for the first 35 hours, so she receives $350 (35 times $10) before she starts receiving extra hours.
Since she received $515, we know that she worked extra hours.
Let's use the variable x to represent the number of extra hours worked.
So we can write the following equation for the total payment received:
She worked 11 extra hours. Adding this to the 35 regular hours, so she worked for 46 hours.
Answer:
$7.35
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer to this question, you would need to multiply 15 times .49 which would equal 7.35
