The average is 0.9
-2.5 + 5.2 + 1.7 + (-0.8) = 3.6
3.6 / 4 = 0.9
Sounds like a problem in binomial probability. What do you think?
Here the # of experiments is 6, so n = 6. The probability of a baby girl being born is 0.50.
Using my TI-83 Plus calculator:
binompdf(6, 0.5, 2) = 0.234
binompdf(6, 0.5, 3) = 0.313
binompdf(6, 0.5, 4) = 0.234
binompdf(6, 0.5, 5) = 0.094
binompdf(6, 0.5, 6) = 0.016
To get the prob. of at least 2 girls in 6 births, add up the 5 probabilities given above:
P(at least 2 girls in 6 births) = 0. ???
Answer:
Jerry Adams normally pays $875 for bodily injury and property damage insurance. His insurance company increases premiums by 150% for 1 accident, 200% for 2-3 accidents, and 250% for 4 accidents. Find ... If the probability that he will live through the year is 0.9989, what is the expected value for the insurance policy?
Answer:
7. 1520.53 cm²
8. 232.35 ft²
9. 706.86 m²
10. 4,156.32 mm²
11. 780.46 m²
12. 1,847.25 mi²
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall:
Surface area of sphere = 4πr²
Surface area of hemisphere = 2πr² + πr²
7. r = 11 cm
Plug in the value into the appropriate formula
Surface area of the sphere = 4*π*11² = 1520.53 cm² (nearest tenth)
8. r = ½(8.6) = 4.3 ft
Plug in the value into the appropriate formula
Surface area of the sphere = 4*π*4.3² = 232.35 ft² (nearest tenth)
9. r = ½(15) = 7.5 m
Surface area of the sphere = 4*π*7.5² = 706.86 m² (nearest tenth)
10. r = ½(42) = 21 mm
Plug in the value into the formula
Surface area of hemisphere = 2*π*21² + π*21² = 2,770.88 + 1,385.44
= 4,156.32 mm²
11. r = 9.1 m
Plug in the value into the formula
Surface area of hemisphere = 2*π*9.1² + π*9.1² = 520.31 + 260.15
= 780.46 m²
12. r = 14 mi
Plug in the value into the formula
Surface area of hemisphere = 2*π*14² + π*14² = 1,231.50 + 615.75
= 1,847.25 mi²
