Bartholemew will draw with replacement 160 tickets at random from a box with five tickets [0, 0, 0, 1, 2]. Estimate the chance t

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

0.0786

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Bartholemew had drawn the replacement of 160 tickets.

There are five tickets = [0, 0, 0, 1, 2]

Now we need to find the estimate of the ticket that has 1 on it and it turns up on the 32 draws exactly.

Since the probability of the drawing 1 out of 5 tickets is given by, $\frac{1}{5} = 0.2$

So the binomial with the parameter of n = 160 and p = 0.2, we get

P (it turns up on exactly 32 draws) = P(X = 32)

Therefore,

$C(160, 32)\times (0.2)^{32}\times (0.8)^{160-32}$

= 0.0786

Is it A) , B) , C), D) , E)

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Part A) The statement is True

Part B) The statement is False

Part C) The statement is True

Part D) The statement is True

part E) The statement is False

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) we have

$1.66..=1 \frac{6}{9}$

The statement Is True

Convert the repeating decimal 1.66.. to an equivalent fraction

Let

$x=1.66..\\ 10x=16.66..\\ 10x-x=16.66..-1.66..\\ 9x=15\\ x=15/9$

Convert to mixed number

$15/9=9/9+6/9=1 \frac{6}{9}$

therefore

$1.66..=1 \frac{6}{9}$

Part B) we have

$0.6 < 6\%$

The statement is false

Because

$6\%=6/100=0.06$

substitute

$0.6 < 0.06$ -----> is not true

Part C) we have

$45\% \leq4.5$

The statement is True

Because

$45\%=45/100=0.45$

substitute

$0.45 \leq4.5$ ----> is true

Part D) we have

$5^{2} \geq 16$

The statement is True

Because

$5^{2}=25$

substitute

$25 \geq 16$ ----> is true

Part E) we have

$9.25 > 9\frac{3}{4}$

The statement is false

Because

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$9\frac{3}{4}=\frac{9*4+3}{4}=\frac{39}{4}$

Convert decimal number to an improper fraction

$9.25=9\frac{1}{4}=\frac{9*4+1}{4}=\frac{37}{4}$

substitute

$\frac{37}{4} > \frac{39}{4}$ -----> is not true
