Probability of a event always lies between 0 and 1.

$\boxed{\sf 0\lt P(E)\gt 1}$

P(E)=0 means there is no chance of happening that event
P(E)=1 means there is full chance of or syre about happening the event.

Modeling Compound Interest In Exercise, complete the table for an account in which interest is compounded continuously.

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

This problem requires us to calculate, the value of investment after 10 and 25 years, and also tell the time after which intial investment amount will double. Investment rate and initial investment amount is given in the question.

Value of investment after 10 year = 600(1+8%)^10 = $ 1,295

Value of investment after 25 year = 600(1+8%)^25 = $ 4,109

Time after which investment amount double (n)

1200 = 600 (1.08)^n

Log 2 = n log 1.08

n = 9 years

I'm not sure what they mean by "relations that represents a function". I don't understand this.

sergeinik [125]

Means, for every 1 input, there is 1 coresponding output
normally x is input and y is output in form (x,y)
so just look for the option(s) that has/have every first number repeat with only 1 2nd number

A. -7 repeats with 5 and -3, not a function

B. no repeats of first number (6,-8) and (-5,-8) are fine because first numbers don't repeat, das is funciton

C. no repeats, function

D. no repeats, function

answer is B,C,D

Suppose we have a population whose proportion of items with the desired attribute is p = 0:5. (a) If a sample of size 200 is tak

crimeas [40]

Answer:

a. If a sample of size 200 is taken, the probability that the proportion of successes in the sample will be between 0.47 and 0.51 is 41.26%.

b. If a sample of size 100 is taken, the probability that the proportion of successes in the sample will be between 0.47 and 0.51 is 30.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem should be solved with a binomial distribution sample, but as the size of the sample is large, it can be approximated to a normal distribution.

The parameters for the normal distribution will be

$\mu=p=0.5\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{p(1-p)/n} =\sqrt{0.5*0.5/200}= 0.0353$

We can calculate the z values for x1=0.47 and x2=0.51:

$z_1=\frac{x_1-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{0.47-0.5}{0.0353}=-0.85\\\\z_2=\frac{x_2-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{0.51-0.5}{0.0353}=0.28$

We can now calculate the probabilities:

$P(0.47$

If a sample of size 200 is taken, the probability that the proportion of successes in the sample will be between 0.47 and 0.51 is 41.26%.

b) If the sample size change, the standard deviation of the normal distribution changes:

$\mu=p=0.5\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{p(1-p)/n} =\sqrt{0.5*0.5/100}= 0.05$

We can calculate the z values for x1=0.47 and x2=0.51:

$z_1=\frac{x_1-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{0.47-0.5}{0.05}=-0.6\\\\z_2=\frac{x_2-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{0.51-0.5}{0.05}=0.2$

We can now calculate the probabilities:

$P(0.47$

If a sample of size 100 is taken, the probability that the proportion of successes in the sample will be between 0.47 and 0.51 is 30.5%.

A seat on a Ferris wheel is level with the center of the wheel. The diameter of the wheel is 210 feet (ft). If the wheel

frutty [35]

Answer:

The change in the height of the seat of the Ferris wheel is a reduction in height of approximately 74.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The position of the seat on the Ferris wheel = The center level of the wheel

The diameter of the Ferris wheel = 210 feet

The angle of rotation of the wheel = 45° counterclockwise

The height of a point on the Ferris wheel is given by the relation;

h = A·cos(b·x + c) + d

With regards to the question, we have;

h = The height of the seat of the Ferris wheel

A = The amplitude = 1/2 × The diameter of the wheel = 210/2 = 105 feet

360/b = The period

c = The phase shift = 90°

d = The mid line = 0

For a rotation of 45° counterclockwise or-45° clockwise, we have;

b·x = 45°, therefore;

h = 105 × cos(45° + 90°) + 0 = 105 × cos(135°) + 0

h = 105 × cos(135°) ≈ -74.25 feet

Therefore, the height of the seat of the Ferris wheel reduces by 74.246 feet.
