When dragons on planet Pern lay eggs, the eggs are either green or yellow. The biologists have observed over the years that 26%

of the eggs are yellow, and the rest green. Next spring the lead scientist has permission to randomly select 67 of the dragon eggs to incubate. Consider all the possible samples of 67 dragon eggs.
1. What is the mean number of yellow eggs in samples of 67 eggs? (that is the same as asking for the expected value of the number of yellow eggs)
(Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.)
mean =
2. What is the standard deviation in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67?
(Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.)
standard deviation =
3. What is the variance in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67?
(Remember to calculate the answer using at least 5 decimal places, then give answer correct to at least one decimal place.)

Answer:

μ=  17.42

var=  12.891= 12.9

σ = 3.59

Explanation:

As the number of trials are fixed  i.e 67 and the success is also fixed i.e 26% or 0.26 this is treated as a binomial experiment.

The mean of the binomial experiment is calculated as

μ= np = 67*0.26= 17.42

This is the same as the expected value of number of yellow eggs.

E(y)= np=μ=  67*0.26= 17.42

The variance  of the binomial experiment is calculated as

var= npq  = 67*0.26(1-0.26)= 67*0.26(0.74)= 12.8908= 12.891

The standard deviation  of the binomial experiment is calculated as

σ =√npq= √12.8908= 3.590376  = 3.59038= 3.5904 = 3.590= 3.59

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

a. $800

b. $1,000

Explanation:

In this case, the opportunity cost of holding the money instead of buying a U.S. Treasury bond is determined as the yearly interest payed by the bond.

a. interest rate = 8%

The opportunity cost of keeping the $10,000 is:

C = \$10,000*0.08 = \$800

b. interest rate = 10%

The opportunity cost of keeping the $10,000 is:

C = \$10,000*0.10 = \$1,000

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The cash provided by investing activities is $91900

Explanation:

The net cash provided or (used) by investing activities is computed thus:

Sale of land and building                     $194800

Purchase of land                                    ($44700)

Purchase of equipment                          ($58200)

Net cash provided by investing activities $91900

The purchase of treasury refers to purchase of own shares from shareholders,hence it is a financing activity

Payment of dividends to shareholders is also a financing activity

Issuance of common stock and retirement of bonds are also financing activity-related,as a result they do not feature in the above computation of cash provided or used by investing activities
