How do I answer this question?

Novay_Z [31]

Due to the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem, we know that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle equals 180 degrees, therefore,

180 = m<1 + m<2 + m<3

180 - m<3 = m<1 + m<2

But, we also know that m<4 + m<3 = 180 degrees.

180 = m<3 + m<4

180 - m<3 = m<4

Both m<4 and m<1 + m<2 equals 180 - m<3

m<4 = m<1 + m<2

Not all visitors to a certain company's website are customers. In fact, the website administrator estimates that about 5% of all

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

0.0135 = 1.35% probability that, in a random sample of 4 visitors to the website, exactly 2 actually are looking for the website.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each visitor of the website, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are looking for the website, or they are not. The probability of a customer being looking for the website is independent of other customers. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

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

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

5% of all visitors to the website are looking for other websites.

So 100 - 5 = 95% are looking for the website, which means that $p = 0.95$

Find the probability that, in a random sample of 4 visitors to the website, exactly 2 actually are looking for the website.

This is P(X = 2) when n = 4. So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = x) = C_{4,2}.(0.95)^{2}.(0.05)^{2} = 0.0135$

0.0135 = 1.35% probability that, in a random sample of 4 visitors to the website, exactly 2 actually are looking for the website.

A sample of 92 observations is taken from a process (an infinite population). the sampling distribution of x̄ is approximately n

Sindrei [870]

It is normal based on the Central Limit Theorem. According to the theorem, an appropriately big sample (infinite) size from a population with a limited level of variance, the average of all samples from the same populace will be roughly equivalent to the mean of the population.

What is 9.78 rounded to the nearest tenth?

Zarrin [17]

Since the number before the number in the tenth place (7) is greater than 5 (8), you will be rounding up. So your answer is 9.80
