Complete Question

According to a study done by a university student, the probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mouth when sneezing is 0.267 Suppose you sit on a bench in a mall and observe people's habits as they sneeze

(a) What is the probability that among 18 randomly observed individuals exactly 6 do not cover their mouth when sneezing?

Answer:

P(X=6)=(0.162)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=18

Probability P=0.267

No. that do not cover their mouth when sneezing x=6

Generally the equation for The Binomial distribution is mathematically given by

Parameters

B(18,0.267)

Therefore

P(X=x)=(18..x)(0.267)^x(1-0.267)^{18-x}

Where

x=6

Therefore

P(X=6)=(18..6)(0.267)^6(1-0.267)^{18-6}

P(X=6)=(0.162)

If possible write the following equation in slope-intercept form. y – = 9
elena55 [62]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

\frac{y-x}{9}=9

y-x=9\times 9=81

y=x+81

Compare with slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

Where m=Slope of line

b=y-intercept

a.We get slope=m=1

b.b=81

c) To find the x- intercept

Substitute y=0

x+81=0

x=-81

x-intercept at x=-81

1. An airline knows that only about 75% of those who make a reservation actually buy a ticket. At this rate, how many reservatio
madam [21]
We have to use proportion to solve this problem.
75% -------------------180
100% ---------------------x
crossmultiply
75*x=100*180
75x=18000           /:75
x=240 - its the answer

We have similar problem here
8%---------------------60$
100% ------------------x
crossmultiply now
8*x=60*100
8x=600        /:8
x=75 - its the answer

Chapter 8 Written Homework 1. A hypothesis test is conducted to test the claim that the proportion of people with dark hair at M
UNO [17]

Answer:

we reject  H₀

Step-by-step explanation:  Se annex

The test is one tail-test (greater than)

Using   α = 0,05   (critical value )  from z- table we get

z(c) = 1,64

And Test hypothesis is:

H₀         Null hypothesis           μ   =  μ₀

Hₐ       Alternate hypothesis   μ   >  μ₀

Which we need to compare with z(s) = 2,19  (from problem statement)

The annex shows z(c), z(s), rejection and acceptance regions, and as we can see z(s) > z(c) and it is in the rejection region

So base on our drawing we will reject  H₀
