Over the weekend halverson had put together 3/16 if a jigsaw puzzle while jamie put together 10/16 of the puzzle. Who had coplet

Luden [163]

Answer:

Jamie. by 7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Halverson completed: 3/16

Jamie completed: 10/16.

To understand who completed more, look at the denominator. The common denominator is 16. Assume a puzzle has 16 pieces and Halverson did 3 out of 16 and Jamie did 10 out of 16. This means Jamie did more.

If you want to know by how much Jamie did more, it would be the difference of both the fraction. This means that 10 done by Jamie minus 3 done by Halverson, which is 7. So 7 out of 16 is the difference.

$\frac{10}{16} -\frac{3}{16}$

7 out of 16 can be written as 7/16

Use the normal distribution and the given sample results to complete the test of the given hypotheses. Assume the results come f

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43$

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

$p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008$

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=75 represent the random sample taken

$\hat p=0.64$ estimated proportion of interest

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the true proportion is higher than 0.5:

Null hypothesis: $p =0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

The statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the info given we got:

$z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43$

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

$p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008$

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

A bag contains 4 blue marbles and 2 yellow marbles. Two marbles are randomly chosen (the first marble is NOT replaced before dra

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

0.4 = 40% probability that both marbles are blue.

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that both marbles are yellow.

53.33% probability of one blue and then one yellow

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, 0.8571 = 85.71% probability that both are blue

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand conditional probability(for the final question) and the hypergeometric distribution(for the first three, because the balls are chosen without being replaced).

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

What is the probability that both marbles are blue?

4 + 2 = 6 total marbles, which means that $N = 6$

4 blue, which means that $k = 4$

Sample of 2, which means that $n = 2$

This is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,6,2,4) = \frac{C_{4,2}*C_{2,0}}{C_{6,2}} = 0.4$

0.4 = 40% probability that both marbles are blue

What is the probability that both marbles are yellow?

4 + 2 = 6 total marbles, which means that $N = 6$

2 yellow, which means that $k = 2$

Sample of 2, which means that $n = 2$

This is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,6,2,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{4,0}}{C_{6,2}} = 0.0667$

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that both marbles are yellow.

What is the probability of one blue and then one yellow?

Total is 100%.

Can be:

Both blue(40%)

Both yellow(6.67%)

One blue and one yellow(x%). So

40 + 6.67 + x = 100

x = 100 - 46.67

x = 53.33

53.33% probability of one blue and then one yellow.

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, what is the probability that both are blue?

Conditional probability.

Event A: Both same color

Event B: Both blue

Probability of both being same color:

Both blue(40%)

Both yellow(6.67%)

This means that $P(A) = 0.4 + 0.0667 = 0.4667$

Probability of both being the same color and blue:

40% probability that both are blue, which means that $P(A \cap B) = 0.4$

Desired probability:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4}{0.4667} = 0.8571$

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, 0.8571 = 85.71% probability that both are blue
