P(a) = 0.8
p(b|a) = 0.4 i.e (probability of b after event a has happened)
p(a n b) ≠ 0.32

Time traveler can take 5 books with him and he has 79 books to choose from how many different ways can the books be selected
AveGali [126]

<u>We are given:</u>

The time-traveller has 79 books, but he can only take 5 books

since we need to find the number of ways he can choose 5 books, we know that the order in which he takes the books does NOT matter

Hence, we will use combination

<u>Finding the number of ways:</u>

Since we will use combination, ₇₉C₅

We know that the formula for combination is  (n!) / (r!(n-r)!)

₇₉C₅  = 79! / 5!(74!)

₇₉C₅ = 22,537,515

Therefore, the time traveller can choose 5 books in 22,537,515 different ways

Which is the sum of the interior angles of an octagon?
cupoosta [38]
To find the sum of interior angles, subtract 2 by the number of sides and then multiply the difference by 180.

180 (8-2) = 180(6) = 1080.

1080 is the sum of the interior angles of an octagon

Hope this helps :)

A marketing research consultant hired by Coca-Cola is interested in determining if the proportion of customers who prefer Coke t
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

A one-tailed hypothesis will be used to perform the test.

Step-by-step explanation:

The purpose of the marketing research consultant hired by Coca-Cola is to determine whether the the proportion of customers who prefer Coke to other brands is over 50%.

The marketing research consultant selected a random sample of <em>n</em> = 200 customers. The sample proportion of people who favored Coca-Cola over other brands was 55%.

The marketing research consultant can perform a single proportion hypothesis test to determine whether greater than 50% of customers prefer Coca-Cola to other brands.

Since we need to determine whether the population percentage is greater than a null value, the hypothesis is not two-tailed.

The hypothesis can be defined as:

<em>H₀</em>: The proportion of people who favor Coca-Cola over other brands was 55%, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.50.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The proportion of people who favor Coca-Cola over other brands was more than 55%, i.e. <em>p</em> > 0.50.

Thus, a one-tailed hypothesis will be used to perform the test.
