You are playing a board game with your little sister. Moves are determined by rolling 2 six-sided dice. The red die tells you th

enot [183]

Answer: The probability is 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's define the possible outcomes of each dice:

Red: Forward (4 times), Backward (2 times)

Green : {1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4}

We want to find the probability of moving backward 2 spaces.

Then we need to find the probability of rolling a "backward" in the red dice, and a 2 in the green dice.

First, the probability of rolling a backward in the red dice is equal to the quotient between the number of outcomes that are "backward", and the total number of outcomes in the dice (there are 2 backwards and 6 outcomes in total), this is:

p1 = 2/6 = 1/3.

And the probability of rolling a 2 in the green dice is equal to the quotient between the number of outcomes with a 2, and the total number of outcomes. (The 2 appears two times, and there are 6 possible outcomes):

p2 = 2/6 = 1/3.

Now, the probability of both events happening at the same time is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, then the probability of moving backwards 2 spaces is:

P = p1*p2 = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9.

maria brought a blouse on sale for 20% off. the sale price was $21.76. what was the original price? round to the nearest hundred

Degger [83]

Answer: $27.20

Step-by-step explanation:

She bought a blouse for 20% off so it means that she paid 80% of the original price.We can then set up the equation

80% of x = 21.76 where x is the original price so solve for x

0.8x = 21.76

x = 27.20

Which means the original price is $27.20

The independent-samples t testResearch Scenario: A forensic psychologist has developed a new program that teaches empathy and po

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The researcher developed a treatment to teach social skills to youth offenders. To test if the treatment is effective in increasing empathy compared to the standard treatment she randomly selected a group of 9 offenders and applied the new treatment and to another group of 9 randomly selected youth offenders, she applied the standard treatment. (Note: the data corresponds to two samples of 9 units each, so I've used those sizes to conduct the test)

At the end of the treatment, she administers BES to measure their empathy levels. Her claim is that the offenders that received the new treatment will have higher BES scores than those who received the standard treatment.

1) Using the records obtained for both groups, she intends to conduct an independent t-test to analyze her claim.

X₁: BES results of a youth offender treated with the new treatment.

X₂: BES results of a youth offender treated with the standard treatment.

H₀: μ₁ = μ₂

H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

α:0.05

test statistic

$t_{H_0}= -0.32$

p-value: 0.7517

The p-value is greater than the significance level so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis. This means that at a 5% significance level you can conclude that there is no difference between the mean BES scores of the youth offenders treated with the new treatment and the mean BES score of the youth offenders treated with the standard treatment. The new treatment doesn't increase the levels of social empathy of the youth offenders.

I hope this helps

The line with equation x-3y-27=0 meets the parabola y²=4x at two points. Find their coordinates

lesantik [10]

$x-3y-27=0\\
y^2=4x\\\\
x-3y-27=0\\
x=\frac{y^2}{4}\\\\
\frac{y^2}{4}-3y-27=0\\
y^2-12y-108=0\\
y^2-12y+36-144=0\\
(y-6)^2=144\\
y-6=-12 \vee y-6=12\\
y=-6 \vee y=18\\\\
x=\frac{(-6)^2}{4} \vee x=\frac{18^2}{4}\\
x=\frac{36}{4} \vee x=\frac{324}{4}\\
x=9 \vee x=81\\\\
\boxed{(9,-6),(81,18)}
