Last year, Tim rode his bike a total of 50 3/8 miles. This year, he rode his bike a total of 258 3/4 miles. Which of the followi

ng explains about how much farther Tim rode his bike this year than last year? A. About 200 times farther; Subtract last year's distance from this year's distance to get 208 3/8.
Then round to the nearest hundred to get 200.

B. About 50 times farther; Round each distance to the nearest whole number.
Then multiply last year's distance by 50 to see that 259 is close to 50 × 5.

C. About 10 times farther; 258 is about 5 times 50, and 34 is 2 times 38, so multiply 5 × 2 to get 10.

D. About 5 times farther; Round each distance to the nearest whole number.
Then multiply last year's distance by 5 to see that 259 is close to 50 × 5.

(Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.) In 2011, the IRS increased the deductible mileage cost to
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

\%Change = 8.8\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial = 51\ cents

Final = 55.5\ cents

Required

Determine the percentage change

Percentage change is calculated as;

\%Change = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} * 100\%

\%Change = \frac{55.5 - 51 }{51 } * 100\%

\%Change = \frac{4.5}{51} * 100\%

\%Change = \frac{4.5* 100\%}{51}

\%Change = \frac{450\%}{51}

\%Change = 8.8\%

<em>Hence, the percentage change is approximately 8.8%</em>

pychu [463]

Answer:

a) P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039  

P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469  

P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211  

P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422  

P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316

b) E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3

c) Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866

d) P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=4, p=1-0.25=0.75)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

Part a

P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039  

P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469  

P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211  

P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422  

P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316

Part b

The expected value is givn by:

E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3

Part c

For the standard deviation we have this:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866

Part d

For this case the sample size needs to be higher or equal to 9. Since we need a value such that:

P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75

We can verify this using the following code:

"=1-BINOM.DIST(3,9,0.75,TRUE)" and we got 0.99 and the condition is satisfied.

Erm I don't understand-
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

1. (7+3)/2

2. 6, 3

3. 5/6

4. 500, 4000

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We are adding 7 and 3 so use the plus sign, THEN we divide by 2

Because we are adding first, put parentheses  

(7+3)/2

2. Nearest whole means whole number (so basically no decimal)

5.823 --> 6 (because 8 is closer to 10 than 0)

3.147 --> 3 (because 1 is closer to 0)

3. 1/3+1/2

Find a common difference, which is 6

Multiply to get 6

1/3*2= 2/6

1/2*3=3/6

3+2=5/6 (when adding keep denominator the same)

4. There are 100 centimeters in a meter

5*100= 500 centimeters

There are 1000 grams in a kilogram

4*1000= 4000 grams

Hope this helps, lemme know if somethings still unclear!!
