Answer:

There should be 18 blue marbles in the representative sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a bag contains 9 white and 54 blue marbles, if a representative sample contains 3 white marbles, to determine how many blue marbles would you expect to contain the following calculation must be performed:

9 = 3

54 = X

54 x 3/9 = X

162/9 = X

18 = X

Therefore, there should be 18 blue marbles in the representative sample.

Answer:

(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.

The random variable X\sim Poisson(\lambda = 0.62).

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,...

(a)

Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:

P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)

             = 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

             =1-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{1}}{1!}\\=1-0.54335-0.33144\\=0.12521\\\approx0.1252

Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b)

The average deaths over 7 year period is: \lambda=7\times0.62=4.34

Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:

P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-4.34}(4.34)^{0}}{0!}=0.01304\approx0.0130

Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

The diameter of a dome is 28 inches. What is the volume? Leave in terms of pi.
MArishka [77]
To find the volume of a dome, you would have to find the volume of the sphere, theoretically, and then divide it by two. To calculate the volume, we would use the formula 4/3 \pi r^{3}. The radius (r) in this case is half of the diameter which is 14. 4 x 3.14 (pi) = 12.56. 12.56 x 14 x 14 x 14 (2744) = 34464.64. If we divide this number by 3, we get 11488.2133. If we divide this by 2 (to get the dome), we get 5744.10656. Which would be 5744.1 rounded to the nearest tenth.
