5. A survey of student pizza preferences showed that 43 students preferred cheese, 56 preferred sausage, 39 preferred pepperoni,

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

P (Cheese) = 0.199, P (Sausage) = 0.259, P (Pepperoni) = 0.181,

P (Supreme) = 0.130, P (Another Kind) = 0.144

and P (Does not like any kind) = 0.088

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of students who prefer cheese = 43

Number of students who prefer sausage = 56

Number of students who prefer pepperoni = 39

Number of students who prefer supreme = 28

Number of students who prefer another kind = 31

Number of students who did not like any kind = 19

∴ The total number of students surveyed = $43+56+39+28+31+19=216$ The number of students who prefer pizza = $43+56+39+28+31=197$

The probability that a students likes pizza is,

$P(Student\ likes\ pizza)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ pizza}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{197}{216} \\=0.912$

The probability that a students does not likes pizza is,

$P(Student\ does\ not\ likes\ pizza)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ does\ not\ prefer\ pizza}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{19}{216} \\=0.088$

The probability distribution of students who prefer different kinds of pizza is:

The probability that a student likes cheese:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ cheese)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ cheese}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{43}{216}\\=0.199$

The probability that a student likes sausage:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ sausage)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ sausage}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{56}{216}\\=0.259$

The probability that a student likes pepperoni:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ pepperoni)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ pepperoni}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{39}{216}\\=0.181$

The probability that a student likes supreme:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ supreme)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ supreme}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{28}{216}\\=0.130$

The probability that a student likes another kind:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ another\ kind)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ another\ kind}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{31}{216}\\=0.144$

Thus, the probability distribution table is displayed below:

Experiments on learning in animals sometimes measure how long it takes a mouse to find its way through a maze. The mean time is

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an experiment a mouse took the mean time to find its way through a maze = 18 seconds.

So the mean time μ = 18

So null hypothesis says,

H₀ : μ = 18

Then a researcher thought that the mice can complete the maze faster than the time taken earlier.

So he thinks mean time taken by 10 mice will be less than 18 seconds.

Or μ < 18

Alternate hypothesis says will be

Hₐ : μ < 18

Therefore, null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis will be

H₀ : μ = 18

Hₐ : μ < 18

Option A. will be the answer.

How to use a bar model?

riadik2000 [5.3K]

You make a bar and you take 34 and shade 18. Count the squares not shaded.

Don't take my word on this. I may be wrong.
