Mating eagle pairs typically have two baby eagles (called eaglets). When there are two eaglets, the parents always feed the olde

r eaglet until it has had its fill, and then they feed the younger eaglet. This results in an unequal chance of survival for the two eaglets. Suppose that the older eaglet has a 50 percent chance of survival. If the older eaglet survives, the younger eaglet has a 10 percent chance of survival. If the older eaglet does not survive, the younger eaglet has a 30 percent chance of survival. Let X be the number of eaglets that survive. Which of the following tables shows the probability distribution of X?A. x 0 1 2 p(x) 1/3 1/3 1/3B. x 0 1 2 p(x) 1/4 1/2 1/4C. x 0 1 2 p(x) 0.35 0.60 0.05D. x 0 1 2 p(x) 0.05 0.90 0.05E. x 0 1 2 p(x) 0.10 0.30 0.50

Answer:

C. x 0 1 2 p(x) 0.35 0.60 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

50% chance of survival

Let:

x = older eaglet survive

y = younger eaglet survive

Hence,

P(x = 0) (none of the eaglet survive)

P(x = 1) (only one survive)

P(x = 2) (both survive)

P(x) = 0.5

P(x') = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

P(x n y) = 0.5 * 0.1 = 0.05 ( both survive)

P(only one survive)

P(y n x') + p(y' n x)

(0.5 * 0.3) + (0.5 * (1 - 0.1))

0.15 + 0.45 = 0.6

P(none survives)

1 - (0.60 + 0.05)

= 0.35

X _______ 0 ______ 1 ______ 2

P(x) ____ 0.35 ____ 0.60 ___ 0.05

Answer:

<em>M(13)=14.3 gram</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential Decay Function</u>

The exponential function is used to model natural decaying processes, where the change is proportional to the actual quantity.

An exponential decaying function is expressed as:

C(t)=C_o\cdot(1-r)^t

Where:

C(t) is the actual value of the function at time t

Co is the initial value of C at t=0

r is the decaying rate, expressed in decimal

The element has an initial mass of Mo=970 grams, the decaying rate is r=27.7% = 0.277 per minute.

The equation of the model is:

M(t)=M_o\cdot(1-r)^t

M(t)=970\cdot(1-0.277)^t

Operating:

M(t)=970\cdot 0.723^t

After t=13 minutes the remaining mass is:

M(13)=970\cdot 0.723^{13}

Calculating:

M(13)=14.3 gram

In a class of students, the following data table summarizes how many students passed a test and complete the homework due the da
Alexxandr [17]

20 / 27 is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test or completed the homework.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test or complete the homework :

Let us take,

  • Event A ⇒ a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test
  • Event B ⇒ a student chosen randomly from the class complete the homework

We need to find out P (A or B) which is given by the formula,

⇒ P (A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∪B)

<u>From the given table of data,</u>

  • The total number of students in the class = 27 students.
  • The no.of students passed the test ⇒ 15+3 = 18 students.

P(A) = No.of students passed / Total students in the class

P(A) ⇒ 18 / 27

  • The no.of students completed the homework ⇒ 15+2 = 17 students.

P(B) = No.of students completed the homework / Total students in the class

P(B) ⇒ 17 / 27

  • The no.of students who passes the test and completed the homework = 15 students.

P(A∪B) = No.of students both passes and completes the homework / Total

P(A∪B) ⇒ 15 / 27

Therefore, to find out the P (A or B) :

⇒ P(A) + P(B) - P(A∪B)

⇒ (18 / 27) + (17 / 27) - (15 / 27)

⇒ 20 / 27

∴ The P (A or B) is 20/27.
