Answer:

x² - 12x + 27

Step-by-step explanation:

(f + g)(x)

= f(x) + g(x)

= x² - 13x + 36 + x - 9 ← collect like terms

= x² - 12x + 27 ← in standard form

Suppose that each child born is equally likely to be a boy or a girl. Consider a family with exactly three children. Let BBG ind

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(a)

$S = \{GGG, GGB, GBG, GBB, BBG, BGB, BGG, BBB\}$

(b)

$1\ girl = \{GBB, BBG, BGB\}$

$P(1\ girl) = 0.375$

ii.

$Atleast\ 2 \ girls = \{GGG, GGB, GBG, BGG\}$

$P(Atleast\ 2 \ girls) = 0.5$

iii.

$No\ girl = \{BBB\}$

$P(No\ girl) = 0.125$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Children = 3$

$B = Boys$

$G = Girls$

Solving (a): List all possible elements using set-roster notation.

The possible elements are:

$S = \{GGG, GGB, GBG, GBB, BBG, BGB, BGG, BBB\}$

And the number of elements are:

$n(S) = 8$

Solving (bi) Exactly 1 girl

From the list of possible elements, we have:

$1\ girl = \{GBB, BBG, BGB\}$

And the number of the list is;

$n(1\ girl) = 3$

The probability is calculated as;

$P(1\ girl) = \frac{n(1\ girl)}{n(S)}$

$P(1\ girl) = \frac{3}{8}$

$P(1\ girl) = 0.375$

Solving (bi) At least 2 are girls

From the list of possible elements, we have:

$Atleast\ 2 \ girls = \{GGG, GGB, GBG, BGG\}$

And the number of the list is;

$n(Atleast\ 2 \ girls) = 4$

The probability is calculated as;

$P(Atleast\ 2 \ girls) = \frac{n(Atleast\ 2 \ girls)}{n(S)}$

$P(Atleast\ 2 \ girls) = \frac{4}{8}$

$P(Atleast\ 2 \ girls) = 0.5$

Solving (biii) No girl

From the list of possible elements, we have:

$No\ girl = \{BBB\}$

And the number of the list is;

$n(No\ girl) = 1$

The probability is calculated as;

$P(No\ girl) = \frac{n(No\ girl)}{n(S)}$

$P(No\ girl) = \frac{1}{8}$

$P(No\ girl) = 0.125$

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

a) $s^2 =30^2 =900$

b) $\frac{(19)(30)^2}{30.144} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(19)(30)^2}{10.117}$

$567.28 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 1690.224$

c) $23.818 \leq \sigma \leq 41.112$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following question: Because of staffing decisions, managers of the Gibson-Marimont Hotel are interested in the variability in the number of rooms occupied per day during a particular season of the year. A sample of 20 days of operation shows a sample mean of 290 rooms occupied per day and a sample standard deviation of 30 rooms

Part a

For this case the best point of estimate for the population variance would be:

$s^2 =30^2 =900$

Part b

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$
