Answer:

d) 5/12​

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Drinks:

Five diet, 10 regular.

Probability of a regular drink:

10/(10+5) = 10/15 = 2/3

Regular bag of chips:

6 fat-free, 10 regular

Probability of a regular bag of chips:

10/(10+6) = 10/16 = 5/8

What is the probability that you will buy a regular drink and a regular bag of chips?

Drink and chips are independent events, which means that we just multiply the probabilities. So

\frac{2}{3}*\frac{5}{8} = \frac{2*5}{3*8} = \frac{10}{24} = \frac{5}{12}

The correct answer is given by option d.

The cost c, to produce b baseball bats per day is modeled by the function c(b)=0.06b^2 - 7.2b + 390. What number of bats should
Finger [1]
You have two choices.
The minimum possible cost to operate your bat factory for a day is $390,
and there are two quantities of bats that both cost that much.

One possibility: 
                   Produce no bats at all per day.  Zero.  Nada.  None.
                   Cost = 0.06(0)²  -  7.2(0)  +  390  =  $390 per day.

The other choice:
                   Produce  120 bats per day.
                   Cost = 0.06(120²)  -  7.2(120)  +  390
                          = 0.06(14,400)  -  7.2(120)  +  390
                          =      864          -      864      +  390
                          =      $390  per day.

If you produce any other number of bats in a day ... more than zero
but not 120 ... then it will cost you more than $390 to operate the factory
that day.

A random sample of 10 single mothers was drawn from a Obstetrics Clinic. Their ages are 22, 17, 27, 20, 23, 19, 24, 18, 19, and
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The two-tailed P value equals 0.2308

 By conventional criteria, this difference is considered to be not statistically significant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a random sample of 10 single mothers

the ages are given as

22, 17, 27, 20, 23, 19, 24, 18, 19, and 24 years

H0: Mean = 20

Ha: Mean not equals 20

(two tailed test at 5% significance level)

The hypothetical mean is 20.00

The actual mean is 21.30

The difference between these two values is 1.30

The   95% confidence interval of this difference:

From -0.99 to 3.59

 t = 1.2851

 df = 9

 standard error  = 1.012

The two-tailed P value equals 0.2308

 By conventional criteria, this difference is considered to be not statistically significant.
