Answer:
(A) The odds that the taxpayer will be audited is approximately 0.015.
(B) The odds against these taxpayer being audited is approximately 65.67.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
Suppose the probability of an IRS audit is 1.5 percent for U.S. taxpayers who file form 1040 and who earned $100,000 or more.
A. What are the odds that the taxpayer will be audited?
B. What are the odds against such tax payer being audited?
Solution:
The proportion of U.S. taxpayers who were audited is:
P (A) = 0.015
Then the proportion of U.S. taxpayers who were not audited will be:
P (A') = 1 - P (A)
= 1 - 0.015
= 0.985
(A)
Compute the odds that the taxpayer will be audited as follows:
Thus, the odds that the taxpayer will be audited is approximately 0.015.
(B)
Compute the odds against these taxpayer being audited as follows:
Thus, the odds against these taxpayer being audited is approximately 65.67.
Answer:
as p decreases, sigma decreases.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that 35%are hispanic. For a sample of 17 members
n = 17
p = 0.35
and the number of Hispanics on the committee would have the binomial distribution
a) Mean of X = E(x) =
b) Std dev X =
c) Here n =17 and p =0.1
d) When p = 0.01
Thus we find that as p decreases, sigma decreases.
