Answer:
You would expect for 35 people to have consumed alcoholic beverages.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they consumed alcoholic beverages, or they did not. The probability of a person having consumed alcoholic beverage is independent of any other person. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
We learned in Exercise 3.25 that about 70% of 18-20 year olds consumed alcoholic beverages in 2008.
This means that
We now consider a random sample of fifty 18-20 year olds.
This means that
How many people would you expect to have consumed alcoholic beverages
You would expect for 35 people to have consumed alcoholic beverages.
Answer:
- after week 7: 4374 pennies
- 486 pennies: after week 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence values have a first term of 6 and a common ratio of 3, so can be described by the formula ...
an = 6·3^(n-1)
This can be rearranged to ...
an = 2·3^n
__
When n=7, the value is ...
a7 = 2·3^7 = 4374 . . . . pennies saved after 7 weeks
__
To find when there are 486 pennies saved, we can solve the equation ...
486 = 2·3^n
243 = 3^n
log(243) = n·log(3) . . . . . . . take the logarithm
log(243)/log(3) = n = 5 . . . . divide by the coefficient of n
Tabitha will have saved 486 pennies after 5 weeks.
