A survey finds that 40% of students ride in a car to school. Eri would like to estimate the probability that if 3 students were

randomly selected, only 1 rides in a car. To simulate this probability, she lets the numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3 represent a student who rides in a car to school and then 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 represent a student who does not ride in a car to school. She then has a computer randomly select 3 numbers. She repeats this process for 20 trials. The results of these trials are shown in the table.
468 380 120 220 553 945 935 607 473 490 074 981 692 518 408 954 943 389 594 569

Based on this simulation, what is the estimated probability that only 1 of 3 randomly selected students rides in a car to school?

First, we analyze the data given:

468 = no student rides a car to school
380 = 2 students 
120 = 3 students
220 = 3 students
553 = 1
945 = none
935 = 1
607 = 1
473 = 1
490 = 1
074 = 1
981 = 1
692 = 1
518 = 1
408 = 1
954 = none
943 = 1 
389 = 1
594 = none 
569 = none 

Total = 20 trials
Number of 1 student trial = 12

Therefore, the probability <span>that only 1 of 3 randomly selected students rides in a car to school is 12/20 = 0.6</span><span />

Assume the world catch of fish in 1950 was 12 million tons and in 1955 it was 96 million tons.
Rama09 [41]

The rate of change is 16.8 million tons per year

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, the world catch of fish in 1950 was 12 million tons and in 1955 it was 96 million tons

<em><u>The average rate of change is given by formula:</u></em>

\text{ Average rate of change } = \frac{\text{ change in value }}{\text{ number of years }}

Value in 1950 = 12 million tons

Value in 1955 = 96 million tons

Change in value = value in 1955 - value in 1950

Change in value = 96 million - 12 million = 84 million tons

Number of years = 1950 to 1955 = 5 years

<em><u>Substitute the given values in formula,</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>\text{ Average rate of change } = \frac{84 \text{ million tons}}{5} = 16.8 \text{ million tons}<em><u></u></em>

Thus rate of change is 16.8 million tons per year

Suppose you just purchased a digital music player and have put 12 tracks on it. After listening to them you decide that you like
Vilka [71]

Answer:

a) 9% , not unusual

b) 42.4%

c) 48.4%

d) 11.1% , 44.4% , 44.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information from the statement:

n = 12

r = 4

a)  

P (likebothofthem) = P (likefirstsong) * P (likesecondsong)

P = 4/12 * 3/11

P = 0.09 = 9%

The probability is not unusual, unusual is considered less than 0.05 or 5%

b)

P (likeneither) = P (notlikefirstsong) * P (notlikesecondsong)

P = 8/12 * 7/11

P = 0.424 = 42.4%

c) P (likeexactlyoneofthem) = P (firstsongliked) * P (secondsongnotliked) + P (firstsongnotliked) * P (secondsongliked)

P = (4/12 * 8/11) + (8/12 * 4/11)

P = 0.484 = 48.4%

d)

a)

P (likebothofthem) = P (likefirstsong) * P (likesecondsong)

P = 4/12 * 4/12

P = 0.111 = 11.1%

The probability is not unusual, unusual is considered less than 0.05 or 5%

b)

P (likeneither) = P (notlikefirstsong) * P (notlikesecondsong)

P = 8/12 * 8/12

P = 0.444 = 44.4%

c) P (likeexactlyoneofthem) = P (firstsongliked) * P (secondsongnotliked) + P (firstsongnotliked) * P (secondsongliked)

P = (4/12 * 8/12) + (8/12 * 4/12)

P = 0.444 = 44.4%

7 1/4 + 5 3/5= reduced to it's lowest form
Scrat [10]
7 1/4 + 5 3/5
First, you need a common denominator to add the two. 20 will work.
4x5=20, so we have to also multiply 1 by 5.
4x5=20, 1x5=5
5x4=20, so we have to also multiply 3 by 4.
5x4=20, 3x4=12
And now we put the fractions back in.
7 5/20 + 5 12/20
And add them.
7 5/20 + 5 12/20 = 12 17/20
Now, we're supposed to reduce it to its lowest form.
Unfortunately, the fraction cannot be reduced, because 17 is a prime number, meaning there are no factors to it except one and itself.
Therefore, the lowest form of 12 17/20 is 12 17/20
Your answer is B, 12 17/20
