Answer:

Area of a trapezium = 1/2 * sum of parallel sides * distance between them

= 1/2 * (10 + 18) * 6

= 1/2 * 28 * 6

= 84 feet ^2

Area of a rectangle = length * breadth

= 18 * 12

= 216 feet ^2

Total Area = 84 + 216

Total area = 300 feet

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

a) 0.1423

b) 0.2977

c) 0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

For each driver stopped for speeding, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have invalid licenses, or they do not. The probability of a driver having an invalid license is independent from other drivers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

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.

In this problem we have that:

13 percent of the drivers stopped for speeding have invalid licenses.

This means that $p = 0.13$

14 drivers are stopped

This means that $n = 14$

(a) None will have an invalid license.

This is $P(X = 0)$

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.13)^{0}.(0.87)^{14} = 0.1423$

(b) Exactly one will have an invalid license.

This is $P(X = 1)$

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

$P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.13)^{1}.(0.87)^{13} = 0.2977$

(c) At least 2 will have invalid licenses.

Either less than 2 have invalid licenses, or at least 2 does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. Mathematically, this is

$P(X < 2) + P(X \geq 2) = 1$

We want $P(X \geq 2)$

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)$

In which

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1423 + 0.2977 = 0.44$

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.44 = 0.56$

Leona purchased a $1,000 bond having a quoted price of 99.875. She had to pay a 5.5% brokerage fee (of the selling price). What

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

None of these choices are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a bond is quoted at 99.875, it means that it is sold at 99.875% of the face value;

Face value = 1000

Therefore, Price = 0.99875 * 1000

Price = $998.75

If Leona pays 5.5% of the selling price, it means that she is paying additional cost which will make the total cost more than the quoted price;

5.5% of 998.75 is;

0.055*998.75 = $54.93

The total cost = $998.75 +$54.93

= $1053.68

Therefore, none of the given choices is correct.

Harman [31]

Answer:

Step 1

The data represent amount.

A 90% confidence interval for the population mean is,

First, compute t-critical value then find confidence interval.

The t critical value for the 90% confidence interval is,

The sample size is small and two-tailed test. Look in the column headed and the row headed in the t distribution table by using degree of freedom is,

The t critical value for the 90% confidence interval is 1.711.

A 90% confidence interval for the population mean is .

Step 2

It is reasonable to conclude that mean of the population is actually $55000 due to a 90% confidence intrerval for population mean is between $52461.23 and $57640.77 does include $55000.
