Answer: P = 1/12 = 0.083

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of the 12 girls, there will be only one that is the lead-off batter.

we can assume that this is the first being selected at random, then the probability that you will be the lead-off batter, is equal to the quotient between 1 (the outcome where you are selected) and 12 (the total number of outcomes)

Then the probability is:

P = 1/12 = 0.083

The fact that there will be an arrange of only 9 girls does not affect the probability of you getting the position of the lead-off batter.

According to an​ almanac, 60​% of adult smokers started smoking before turning 18 years old. ​(a) compute the mean and standard
larisa [96]
The given problem describes a binomial distribution with p = 60% = 0.6. Given that there are 400 trials, i.e. n = 400.

a.) The mean is given by:

\mu=np=400\times0.6=240

The standard deviation is given by:

\sigma=\sqrt{npq} \\  \\ =\sqrt{np(1-p)} \\  \\ =\sqrt{400(0.6)(0.4)} \\  \\ =\sqrt{96}=9.80


b.)  The mean means that in an experiment of 400 adult smokers, we expect on the average to get about 240 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years.


c.) It would be unusual to observe <span>340 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years old in a random sample of 400 adult​ smokers because 340 is far greater than the mean of the distribution.
340 is greater than 3 standard deviations from the mean of the distribution.</span>

In a teacher's math course, a linear regression line was calculated to predict
Marat540 [252]

The given equation is the best line that approximates the linear

relationship between the midterm score and the score in the final exam.

  • AJ's residual is 0.3, which is not among the given options, therefore, the correct option is. <u>E. None of these</u>.

Reasons:

The given linear regression line equation is; \hat y = 25.5 + 0.82·\mathbf{\hat x}

Where;

\hat y = Final exam score;

\hat x = The midterm score;

AJ score in the first test, \hat x = 90

AJ's actual score in the exam = 99

Required:

The value of AJ's residual

Solution:

By using the regression line equation, we have;

The predicted exam score, \hat y = 25.5 + 0.82 × 90 = 99.3

  • The residual score = Predicted score - Actual score

∴ AJ's residual = 99.3 - 99 = 0.3

AJ's residual = 0.3

Therefore, the correct option is option E;

  • <u>E. None of these</u>
