You have a bag of 63 candies you want to give to your 9 friends. The company that makes the candies guarantees that exactly 9 of

the candies in the bag are red, the most delicious color. Anyone who doesn't get a red candy will be so upset that they will stop being your friend! But the candies are in identical wrappings, so you are forced to give each friend 7 candies and hope for the best. What's the probability you lose one or more friends

Answer:

the probability you lose one or more friends is 0.9836

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given the data in the question;

P( you lose one or more friend ) = 1 - P( keeping all friends )

Now, keeping all friends is possible only when each friend receives red candy.

As there are only 9 red candies and 9 friends, 1 red candy needs to be given to each friend out of 9 candies

Thus, total candies given = 63

and each friend will get 8 non red and 1 red candy

Thus, P( keeping all friends )

= [ ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ × ⁹C₁ ] / × ⁶³C₉

SO

⁹C₁  = 9!/(1!(9-1)!) = 9 and ⁴⁹C₇ = 63!/(9!(63-9)!)  = 23,667,689,815

so

P( keeping all friends ) = [ 9 × 9 × 9 × 9 × 9 × 9 × 9 × 9 × 9 ] / 23,667,689,815

P( keeping all friends ) = 387,420,489 / 23,667,689,815 = 0.016369

P( you lose one or more friend ) = 1 - P( keeping all friends )

P( you lose one or more friend ) = 1 - 0.016369

P( you lose one or more friend ) = 0.9836

Therefore, the probability you lose one or more friends is 0.9836

Raquel throws darts at a coordinate grid centered at the origin. Her goal is to create a line of darts. Her darts actually hit t
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The line of best fit

y = 0.633x + 0.561

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates that the dart hit include

(–5, 0), (1, –3), (4, 5), (–8, –6), (0, 2), and (9, 6)

The x and y coordinates can be written as

x | y

-5|0

1 | -3

4|5

-8|-6

0|2

9|6

So, running the analysis on a spreadsheet application, like excel, the table of parameters is obtained and presented in the first attached image to this solution.

Σxᵢ = sum of all the x variables.

Σyᵢ = sum of all the y variables.

Σxᵢyᵢ = sum of the product of each x variable and its corresponding y variable.

Σxᵢ² = sum of the square of each x variable

Σyᵢ² = sum of the square of each y variable

n = number of variables = 6

The scatter plot and the line of best fit is presented in the second attached image to this solution

Then the regression analysis is then done

Slope; m = [n×Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)×(Σyᵢ)] / [nΣxᵢ² - (∑xi)²]

Intercept b: = [Σyᵢ - m×(Σxᵢ)] / n

Mean of x = (Σxᵢ)/n

Mean of y = (Σyᵢ) / n

Sample correlation coefficient r:

r = [n*Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)(Σyᵢ)] ÷ {√([n*Σxᵢ² - (Σxᵢ)²][n*Σyᵢ² - (Σyᵢ)²])}

And -1 ≤ r ≤ +1

All of these formulas are properly presented in the third attached image to this answer

The table of results; mean of x, mean of y, intercept, slope, regression equation and sample coefficient is presented in the fourth attached image to this answer.

Hope this Helps!!!
