The University of Washington claims that it graduates 85% of its basketball players. An NCAA investigation about the graduation

Nonamiya [84]

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The given parameters are:

Sample size: n = 20
Proportion: p = 85%

<h3>(a) What is the probability that 11 out of the 20 would graduate? </h3>

Using the binomial probability formula, we have:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x p^x(1 - p)^{n -x}$

So, the equation becomes

$P(x = 11) = ^{20}C_{11} \times (85\%)^{11} \times (1 - 85\%)^{20 -11}$

This gives

$P(x = 11) = 167960 \times (0.85)^{11} \times 0.15^{9}$

$P(x = 11) = 0.0011$

Express as percentage

$P(x = 11) = 0.11\%$

Hence, the probability that 11 out of the 20 would graduate is 0.11%

<h3>(b) To what extent do you think the university’s claim is true?</h3>

The probability 0.11% is less than 50%.

Hence, the extent that the university’s claim is true is very low

<h3>(c) What is the probability that all 20 would graduate? </h3>

Using the binomial probability formula, we have:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x p^x(1 - p)^{n -x}$

So, the equation becomes

$P(x = 20) = ^{20}C_{20} \times (85\%)^{20} \times (1 - 85\%)^{20 -20}$

This gives

$P(x = 20) = 1 \times (0.85)^{20} \times (0.15\%)^0$

$P(x = 20) = 0.0388$

Express as percentage

$P(x = 20) = 3.88\%$

Hence, the probability that all 20 would graduate is 3.88%

<h3>(d) The mean and the standard deviation</h3>

The mean is calculated as:

$\mu = np$

So, we have:

$\mu = 20 \times 85\%$

$\mu = 17$

The standard deviation is calculated as:

$\sigma = np(1 - p)$

So, we have:

$\sigma = 20 \times 85\% \times (1 - 85\%)$

$\sigma = 20 \times 0.85 \times 0.15$

$\sigma = 2.55$

Hence, the mean and the standard deviation are 17 and 2.55, respectively.

A classic counting problem is to determine the number of different ways that the letters of millennium can be arranged. Find tha

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is that the number of different ways that the letters of the word "millennium" can be arranged is 226,800</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Number of letters of the word "millennium" = 10

Letters repeated:

m = 2 times

i = 2 times

l = 2 times

n = 2 times

2. The number of different ways that the letters of millennium can be arranged is:

We will use the n! or factorial formula, this way:

10!/2! * 2! * 2! * 2!

(10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1)/(2 * 1) * (2 * 1) * (2 * 1) * (2 *1)

3'628,800/2*2*2*2 = 3'628,800/16 = 226,800

<u>The correct answer is that the number of different ways that the letters of the word "millennium" can be arranged is 226,800</u>

Data was collected on the number of pets and the height of a random group of students. Identify the correlation you would expect

Ipatiy [6.2K]

No correlation
A scatterplot is used to represent a correlation between two variables. There are two types of correlations: positive and negative. Variables that are positively correlated move in the same direction, while variables that are negatively correlated move in opposite directions.
