Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, isolate the like terms, and try to keep the variable positive:

Add p to both sides:

-1=5-9p+11p

Subtract 5 from both sides:

-6=-9p+11p

Combine like-terms:

-6=2p

Divide:

-3=p

I hope this helps! :D

Pls give thx and brainliest if I’m right!

Answer:

p= 1/3 or 0.33 repeating

Step-by-step explanation:

5-19p=-p-1

5=18p-1

6=18p

divide by 18

6/18 = 1/3 or 0.33 repeating

Assume the sample variances to be continuous measurements. Find the probability that a random sample of 25observations, from a n

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

a) $P(4S^2 > 4*9.1) = P(\chi^2_{24} >36.4) = 0.0502$

b) $P(13.848$ Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

For this case we assume that the sample variance is given by $S^2$ and we select a random sample of size n from a normal population with a population variance $\sigma^2$ . And we define the following statistic:

$T = \frac{(n-1) S^2}{\sigma^2}$

And the distribution for this statistic is $T \sim \chi^2_{n-1}$

For this case we know that n =25 and $\sigma^2 = 6$ so then our statistic would be given by:

$\chi^2 = \frac{(n-1)S^2}{\sigma^2}=\frac{24 S^2}{6}= 4S^2$

With 25-1 =24 degrees of freedom.

Solution to the problem

Part a

For this case we want this probability:

$P(S^2 > 9.1)$

And we can multiply the inequality by 4 on both sides and we got:

$P(4S^2 > 4*9.1) = P(\chi^2_{24} >36.4) = 0.0502$

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=1-CHISQ.DIST(36.4,24,TRUE)"

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(3.462 < S^2$

If we multiply the inequality by 4 on all the terms we got:

$P(3.462*4 < 4S^2 < 4*10.745)= P(13.848< \chi^2$ And we can find this probability like this: $P(13.848$ And we use the following code to find the answer in excel: "=CHISQ.DIST(42.98,24,TRUE)-CHISQ.DIST(13.848,24,TRUE)"
