A certain university in the United States has a student enrollment of 19,100. Mr. Hill knows the percentage of students that are

male and the percentage of students that are female.
To conduct the simulation, Mr. Hill has placed one hundred colored chips in a bag, using the appropriate percentages of enrolled male and female university students. Red chips represent males, and yellow chips represent females.

Suppose a student reaches in the bag and randomly selects nine red chips and eleven yellow chips. Based on this sample, what is a good estimate for the percentage of enrolled university students that are male?
__%


A certain university in the United States has a student enrollment of 19,100. Mr. Hill knows the percentage of students that are male and the percentage of students that are female.
To conduct the simulation, Mr. Hill has placed one hundred colored chips in a bag, using the appropriate percentages of enrolled male and female university students. Red chips represent males, and yellow chips represent females.

Suppose a student reaches in the bag, randomly selects twenty chips, and estimates that 60% of the students are male. How many yellow chips were in their sample?

Answer:

45%

40 yellow chips

Step-by-step explanation:

Total chips: 9 + 11 = 20

P(Male) = 9/20 × 100 = 45%

60% of 100

60/100 × 100

60 red

100 - 60 = 40 yellow chips

Answer:

8595 male

8 yellow chips

Step-by-step explanation:

19100 total number

red- male, yellow- female

9 red and 11 yellow

total= 9+11= 20

19100*9/20= 8595 male students

--------------

19100 total number

60% = male, then 40%= female

40%*20= 8 yellow

8 yellow chips

The profitability, P, of a popular restaurant franchise can be modeled by the function P (t) = t4 – 10t3 + 28t2 – 24t, where t i
vekshin1

In this question, the profit of the restaurant after t months is given by a polynomial function. To find when it begins to show a profit, we find the numerical values of the function for t, and it shows a profit when t > 0

Profit after t months:

P(t) = t^4 - 10t^3 + 28t^2 - 24t

0 months:

This is P(0). So

P(0) = 0^4 - 10*0^3 + 28*0^2 - 24*0 = 0

1 month:

This is P(1). So

P(1) = 1^4 - 10*1^3 + 28*1^2 - 24*1 = -5

2 months:

This is P(2). So

P(2) = 2^4 - 10*2^3 + 28*2^2 - 24*2 = 0

3 months:

This is P(3). So

P(3) = 3^4 - 10*3^3 + 28*3^2 - 24*3 = -9

4 months:

This is P(4). So

P(4) = 4^4 - 10*4^3 + 28*4^2 - 24*4 = -32

5 months:

This is P(5). So

P(5) = 5^4 - 10*5^3 + 28*5^2 - 24*5 = -45

6 months:

This is P(6). So

P(6) = 6^4 - 10*6^3 + 28*6^2 - 24*6 = 0

7 months:

This is `P(7). So

P(7) = 7^4 - 10*7^3 + 28*7^2 - 24*7 = 175

After 7 months it shows profit, so it starts showing profit on the 6th month, and thus, the correct answer is given by option D.

Ellen flipped a coin 80 times. the coin landed heads up 44 times and tails up 36 times. what is the experimental probability of
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

\frac{9}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

experimental probability is the probability of an event occuring when we perform an experiment.

It goes according to the results of the experiment, not the theory behind it.

<u>Probability of landing tails up, therefore, is the number of times it came tails up divided by the total number of times the coin was flipped.</u>

<u />

Hence

P (tails) = 36/80 = 9/20
