Answer: 12 men would be needed to repair the same road in 3 1/3 hrs. Inverse proportion because usually in work,food and time its inversly proportional.

8 hours --> 5 men

1 hour --> 5*8 = 40 men

3 1/3 hours --> 40/ (3 1/3) men

                  --> 12 men

Simulate the rolling of two dice 10,000 times. (b) Identify which rolls of the dice are in the event A, the dice add up to a per
dexar [7]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Simulate the rolling of two dice 10,000 times D1 and D2 are the 10,000 results of roll of dice 1 and dice 2.

D1 = sample(c(1:6), 10000, replace = TRUE)

D2 = sample(c(1:6), 10000, replace = TRUE)

Sum = D1 + D2

(b)

The event A, the dice add up to a perfect square (4 or 9).

A = Sum[Sum == 4 | Sum ==9]

Proportion of A, P(A) = 0.189

length(A) / length(Sum)

(c)

The event B, the dice add up to an even number.

B = Sum[Sum %% 2 == 0]

Proportion of B, P(B) = 0.5049

length(B) / length(Sum)

(d)

The  rolls are in A ∩ B (common to both A and B)

> intersect(A,B)

[1] 4

The proportion that are in A ∩ B is 0.0792

length(Sum[Sum == 4]) / length(Sum)

P(A) * P(B) = 0.189 * 0.5049 = 0.0954

The proportion in A multiplied by the proportion that are in B is not equal to P(A ∩ B)

(e)

Of the rolls in which B occurs, the proportion of those rolls are also in A is 0.4190476

length(Sum[Sum == 4]) / length(A)

This proportion is greater than the P(A) calculated in part (b).

What is the equation of this line in slope
Alex

Answer:

The Answer is: y - 8 = 5/3(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the y intercept form:

y = 5/3x + 3

Note that the slope is 5/3.

Find a point on the line.

Choose x = 3, solve for y:

y = 5/3(3) + 3

y = 5 + 3

y = 8

This give you the point:

(3, 8)

Use this to substitute into the point slope equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 8 = 5/3(x - 3)
