Suppose the newspaper states that the probability of rain today is 50%. What is the complement of the event "rain today"?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gennadij [26K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Let Probability of rain today = P(rain today) = 50% = 0.5

The complement of an event A denoted as A' means the opposite of event A is obtained by subtracting event a from 1.

P(rain today) = 0.5

The complement of P(rain today) ; means the probability that it will NOT rain today;

Hence, P(raintoday') = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 = 50%

In an article regarding interracial dating and marriage recently appeared in a newspaper. Of 1719 randomly selected adults, 311
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The parameter of interest in this exercise is the population proportion of Asians that would welcome a person of other races in their family. Using the race of the welcomed one as categorizer we can define 3 variables:

X₁: Number of Asians that would welcome a white person into their families.

X₂: Number of Asians that would welcome a Latino person into their families.

X₃: Number of Asians that would welcome a black person into their families.

Now since we are working with the population that identifies as "Asians" the sample size will be: n= 251

Since the sample size is large enough (n≥30) you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the variable distribution to normal.

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.975}= 1.965

1. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a white person.

If 79% would welcome a white person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.79= 198.29

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.79*0.21=41.6409

√V(X)= 6.45

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

198.29±1.965*6.45

[185.62;210.96]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [185.62; 210.96] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a White person in their family.

2. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a Latino person.

If 71% would welcome a Latino person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.71= 178.21

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.71*0.29= 51.6809

√V(X)= 7.19

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

178.21±1.965*7.19

[164.08; 192.34]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [164.08; 192.34] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a Latino person in their family.

3. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a Black person.

If 66% would welcome a Black person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.66= 165.66

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.66*0.34= 56.3244

√V(X)= 7.50

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

165.66±1.965*7.50

[150.92; 180.40]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [150.92; 180.40] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a Black person in their family.

I hope it helps!

Quicky help????????????
sergeinik [125]

Step-by-step explanation:

first bring 87.5 to right

25t=12.5+87.5

25t=100.0

then bring 25 to right so it will divided

t=100.0/25

t=4

putting value of t in 25t-87.5=12.5

25(4)-87.5=12.5

Every $4,000 spent on cable TV will reach 160 fans while every $2,750 spent on radio ad will reach 125 fans. A stadium has estab
laila [671]

Answer:

Neither of the two advertising options meet the goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every $4,000 spent on cable TV will reach 160 fans.

Therefore, the goal of reaching 200000 fans will be fulfilled by \frac{4000 \times 200000}{160} = 5000000 dollars i.e. $5 million which is greater than the budget of $3 million.

Now, every $2,750 spent on radio ads will reach 125 fans.

Therefore, the goal of reaching 200000 fans will be fulfilled by \frac{2750 \times 200000}{125} = 4500000 dollars i.e. $4.5 million which is again greater than the budget of $3 million.

Therefore, neither of the two advertising options meet the goal. (Answer)
