You can use pythagorean theorem. 3 miles would be one leg and 2 miles would be the other. (We’ll just call these two a and b in the formula. Letter c, also known as your hypotenuse, will be this ‘straight line distance’.) In order to find this you’ll use: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Then you’ll find the square root of your sum to get the answer.

Answer: 3^2 + 2^2 = ?

A researcher is testing a hypothesis of a single mean. The critical z value for a = .05 and a two‑tailed test is +1.96. The obse
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The decision made by the researcher based on this information is to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two-tailed hypothesis test:

Critical value: z_c

Test statistic: z

If |z| < |z_c|, we do not reject the null hypothesis.

If |z| > |z_c|, we reject the null hypothesis.

In this question:

z_c = 1.96, z = -2.05, |z| = 2.05

Since |z| > |z_c|, we reject the null hypothesis.

The decision made by the researcher based on this information is to reject the null hypothesis.

We are throwing darts on a disk-shaped board of radius 5. We assume that the proposition of the dart is a uniformly chosen point
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

the probability that we hit the bullseye at least 100 times is 0.0113

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Binomial distribution

We find the probability of hitting the dart on the disk

⇒ Area of small disk / Area of bigger disk

⇒ πR₁² / πR₂²

given that; disk-shaped board of radius R² = 5, disk-shaped bullseye with radius R₁ = 1

so we substitute

⇒ π(1)² / π(5)² = π/π25 = 1/25 = 0.04

Since we have to hit the disk 2000 times, we represent the number of times the smaller disk ( BULLSEYE ) will be hit by X.

so

X ~ Bin( 2000, 0.04 )

n = 2000

p = 0.04

np = 2000 × 0.04 = 80

Using central limit theorem;

X ~ N( np, np( 1 - p ) )

we substitute

X ~ N( 80, 80( 1 - 0.04 ) )

X ~ N( 80, 80( 0.96 ) )

X ~ N( 80, 76.8 )

So, the probability that we hit the bullseye at least 100 times, P( X ≥ 100 ) will be;

we covert to standard normal variable

⇒ P( X ≥  \frac{100-80}{\sqrt{76.8} } )

⇒ P( X ≥ 2.28217 )

From standard normal distribution table

P( X ≥ 2.28217 ) = 0.0113

Therefore, the probability that we hit the bullseye at least 100 times is 0.0113
