Answer:
4/35 lottery is easier to win.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the 5/48 lottery, the winning probability is ≈0.1042
For the 4/35 lottery, the winning probability is ≈ 0.1143
Since >
, the lottery where one chooses 4 of the numbers 1 through 35 is easier to win.
Answer:
y = 2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(4, 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(2,3)
m = =
= 2 , thus
y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (2, 3), then
3 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 4 = - 1
y = 2x - 1 ← equation of line
Answer:
(a) 0.7967
(b) 0.6826
(c) 0.3707
(d) 0.9525
(e) 0.1587
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with mean <em>μ</em> = 10 and variance <em>σ</em>² = 36.
(a)
Compute the value of P (X > 5) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X > 5) is 0.7967.
(b)
Compute the value of P (4 < X < 16) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (4 < X < 16) is 0.6826.
(c)
Compute the value of P (X < 8) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X < 8) is 0.3707.
(d)
Compute the value of P (X < 20) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X < 20) is 0.9525.
(e)
Compute the value of P (X > 16) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X > 16) is 0.1587.
