Suppose 8x + 16 ice cream cones

Mathematics
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. 152 + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(8x + 16) + (7x - 9)

8x + 16 + 7x - 9

15x + 16 - 9

15x + 7

None of these options have this answer, so we see A and B:

A. x + 7

B. 152 + 7

It can't be A because we have 15x and A is x + 7

By process of elimination we have B. 152 + 7

x = 10 and 2/15

The probability that a randomly selected box of a certain type of cereal has a particular prize is 0.20.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a) the probability is 0.0734 (7.34%)

b) the probability is 0.7382 (73.82%)

c) 10 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each box is independent of the others and defining the random variable X= number of boxes of cereal purchased without prices until having 2 prices , then X has a negative binomial distribution . Thus

P(X=k)= C(k+r-1,k)*p^k *(1-p)^r

where

p= probability to not obtain a price when a box is purchased = 1- 0.2 = 0.8

C ( ) = combinations

k = number of boxes without prices

r= number of boxes with prices=2

P(X=k) = probability of purchasing k boxes without prices until obtaining r boxes with prices

a) for k= 8 - r = 6

P(X=6)= C(7,6)*0.8^6*0.2^2 = 7*0.8^6*0.2^2 = 0.0734 (7.34%)

b) for k≥9-2=7

P(X≥7) = 1- P(X<7)= 1- Fn(X=7)

where Fn(X) is the cumulative negative binomial distribution. We can calculate it through its relationship with the cumulative binomial distribution Fb(X) that is easily found in tables :

Fn(k=7,r=2,p=0.8) = Fb(k=7,n=k+r=9,p=0.8) = 0.2618

thus

P(X≥7) = 1- P(X<7)= 1- Fn(X=7) = 1-  0.2618 = 0.7382 (73.82%)

c) the expected value E(X) for a negative binomial distribution is

E(X)= p*r/(1-p) = 0.8*2/0.2 = 8 boxes that do not contain prices

thus

n=k+r = 8 + 2 = 10 boxes

What is the scale factor of 3
Wittaler [7]
A scale factor of 3 means that the new shape is three times the size of the original. To calculate the Scale Factor, we use the following: You can get the 'big' and 'small' from the corresponding sides on the figures. So just get your # and multiply it by 3

POLYGON BASICS (GEOMETRY) PLEASE HELP!!
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Polygons are named according to the number of sides and angles they have. The most familiar polygons are the triangle, the rectangle, and the square. A regular polygon is one that has equal sides. Polygons also have diagonals, which are segments that join two vertices and are not sides.

Choose the correct definition of a sampling distribution. The sampling distribution of a statistic of size isa.the distribution
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The answer is Option D:

<em>"The distribution of all values of the statistic resulting from all samples of size taken from the same population."</em>

<em />

Step-by-step explanation:

First, is a distribution of all values. It has to include all the possible values of the statistic with its associated probability.

Second, is a distribution of a statistic because we are talking about sample results.

Third, it has to be taken from the same population and have to have the same sample size.
