Answer:
A) The probability of picking a yellow ball from the bag is 26.66%.
B) The probability of picking a blue ball from the bag is 40%.
C) The probability of picking a yellow ball and then a blue ball is 11.42%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a bag contains 4 yellow balls, 5 red balls, and 6 blue balls, to determine what is the probability of picking a yellow ball from the bag, what is the probability of picking a blue ball from the bag and what is the probability of picking a yellow ball and then a blue ball after replacement, the following calculations must be performed:
A)
4 + 5 + 6 = 100
4 = X
15 = 100
4 = X
4 x 100/15 = X
400/15 = X
26.66 = X
Therefore, the probability of picking a yellow ball from the bag is 26.66%.
B)
15 = 100
6 = X
6 x 100/15 = X
600/15 = X
40 = X
Therefore, the probability of picking a blue ball from the bag is 40%.
C)
14 = 100
6 = X
6 x 100/14 = X
600/14 = X
42.85 = X
0.2666 x 0.4285 = X
0.1142 = X
Therefore, the probability of picking a yellow ball and then a blue ball is 11.42%.
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Experiment. Outcome.
Step-by-step explanation:
An experiment is an event whose result is uncertain.
The possible results from an experiment is called outcome.
Answer:
c. 0.0142
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Let X the random variable that represent interest on this case, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
And let 
represent the sample mean, the distribution for the sample mean is given by:
On this case 
2) Solution to the problem
We want this probability:
The question on this case is ".Find the probability that the average price for 30 gas stations is less than $4.55". So then our value for n=30.
If we apply the formula for the z score to our probability we got this:
And using the normal standard table or the following excel code we calculate the probability "=NORM.DIST(-2.19,0,1,TRUE)"
