Answer:

13p+7

Step-by-step explanation: hope it helps

Let's simplify step-by-step.

5p+11+8p−4

=5p+11+8p+−4

Combine Like Terms:

=5p+11+8p+−4

=(5p+8p)+(11+−4)

=13p+7

Real estate ads suggest that 56 % of homes for sale have garages, 27 % have swimming pools, and 16 % have both features. a) W

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

a) 0.4

b) 0.28

c) The events are not independent

d) The events are not mutually exclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Lets call:

Gar = {homes with garage}

Pool = {homes with pool},

A = {homes with pool and garage} = Gar ∩ Pool

The data we are given is:

P(Gar) = 0.56

P(Pool) = 0.27

P(A) = 0.16

a) B = {homes with garage but not pool}. This set B is the set Gar without set A: B = Gar / A

P(B) = P(Gar) - P(A) = 0.4

b) This is a conditional probability:

P(Pool | Gar) = P(Gar ∩ Pool) / P(Gar) = 0.16/0.56 = 0.28

c) To be independent events, it must be, by definition:

P(Gar ∩ Pool) = P(Gar) * P(Pool)

0.16 ≠ 0.56*0.27 = 0.15

Then, the events Gar and Pool are not independent

d) Gar and Pool are not mutually exclusive, because there are houses with both pool and garage. We know that because P(A) is not zero.

A contractor is required by a county planning department to submit one, two, three, four, or five forms (depending on the nature

Westkost [7]

Answer:

(a) The value of k is $\frac{1}{15}$ .

(b) The probability that at most three forms are required is 0.40.

(d) $P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50} ;\ y=1, 2, ...5$ is not the pmf of y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable Y is defined as the number of forms required of the next applicant.

The probability mass function is defined as:

$P(y) = \left \{ {{ky};\ for \ y=1,2,...5 \atop {0};\ otherwise} \right$

(a)

The sum of all probabilities of an event is 1.

Use this law to compute the value of k.

$\sum P(y) = 1\\k+2k+3k+4k+5k=1\\15k=1\\k=\frac{1}{15}$

Thus, the value of k is $\frac{1}{15}$ .

(b)

Compute the value of P (Y ≤ 3) as follows:

$P(Y\leq 3)=P(Y=1)+P(Y=2)+P(Y=3)\\=\frac{1}{15}+\frac{2}{15}+ \frac{3}{15}\\=\frac{1+2+3}{15}\\ =\frac{6}{15} \\=0.40$

Thus, the probability that at most three forms are required is 0.40.

(c)

Compute the value of P (2 ≤ Y ≤ 4) as follows:

$P(2\leq Y\leq 4)=P(Y=2)+P(Y=3)+P(Y=4)\\=\frac{2}{15}+\frac{3}{15}+\frac{4}{15}\\ =\frac{2+3+4}{15}\\ =\frac{9}{15} \\=0.60$

Thus, the probability that between two and four forms (inclusive) are required is 0.60.

(d)

Now, for $P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50} ;\ y=1, 2, ...5$ to be the pmf of Y it has to satisfy the conditions:

$P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50}>0;\ for\ all\ values\ of\ y \\$
$\sum P(y)=1$

Check condition 1:

$y=1:\ P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50}=\frac{1}{50}=0.02>0\\y=2:\ P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50}=\frac{4}{50}=0.08>0 \\y=3:\ P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50}=\frac{9}{50}=0.18>0\\y=4:\ P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50}=\frac{16}{50}=0.32>0 \\y=5:\ P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50}=\frac{25}{50}=0.50>0$

Condition 1 is fulfilled.

Check condition 2:

$\sum P(y)=0.02+0.08+0.18+0.32+0.50=1.1>1$

Condition 2 is not satisfied.

Thus, $P(y)=\frac{y^{2}}{50} ;\ y=1, 2, ...5$ is not the pmf of y.
