The probability that the randomly selected student chose running is; 12/57

<h3>Solving Probability Questions</h3>

Total number of students = 57

Total number of boys = 24

Total number of girls = 33

Number of Girls that chose football = 17

Number of boys that chose football = 14

Number of students that chose Tennis = 14

Now, number of students that chose running will be;

Number of students that chose running = 57 - (31 + 14) = 12

Thus, probability that a randomly selected student chose running = 12/57

Suppose that the distance, in miles, that people are willing to commute to work is an exponential random variable with a decay p

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

m = $\frac{1}{20}$
μ = 20
σ = 20

The probability that a person is willing to commute more than 25 miles is 0.2865.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential probability distribution is used to define the probability distribution of the amount of time until some specific event takes place.

A random variable X follows an exponential distribution with parameter m.

The decay parameter is, m.

The probability distribution function of an Exponential distribution is:

$f(x)=me^{-mx}\ ;\ m>0, x>0$

Given: The decay parameter is, $\frac{1}{20}$

X is defined as the distance people are willing to commute in miles.

The decay parameter is m = $\frac{1}{20}$ .
The mean of the distribution is: $\mu=\frac{1}{m}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{20}}=20$ .
The standard deviation is: $\sigma=\sqrt{variance}= \sqrt{\frac{1}{(m)^{2}} } =\frac{1}{m} =\frac{1}{\frac{1}{20}} =20$

Compute the probability that a person is willing to commute more than 25 miles as follows:

$P(X>25)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{25} {\frac{1}{20} e^{-\frac{1}{20}x}} \, dx \\=\frac{1}{20}|20e^{-\frac{1}{20}x}|^{\infty}_{25}\\=|e^{-\frac{1}{20}x}|^{\infty}_{25}\\=e^{-\frac{1}{20}\times25}\\=0.2865$

Thus, the probability that a person is willing to commute more than 25 miles is 0.2865.

What is the x-coordinate of the red point

Katarina [22]

Well, an x-coordinate is the horizontal line on a grid. The y-coordinate is the vertical line on the grid. You would have to show us the grid to answer that question.
