Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as
y = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where
y = the value of the investment at the end of t years
r represents the interest rate.
n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.
P represents the principal or initial amount invested
From the information given,
P = $4700
r = 4.75% = 4.75/100 = 0.0475
n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.
Therefore, the exponential function showing the relationship between y and t is
y = 4700(1 + 0.0475/1)^1 × t
y = 4700(1.0475)^t
Suppose that in a population of adults between the ages of 18 and 49, glucose follows a normal distribution with a mean of 93.5 and standard deviation of 19.8. What is the probability that glucose exceeds 120 in this population
Answer:
0.0904 or 9.04%
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean glucose (μ) = 93.5
Standard deviation (σ) = 19.8
In a normal distribution, the z-score for any glucose value, X, is given by:
[tex]Z= \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
For X = 120, the z-score is:
[tex]Z= \frac{120-93.5}{19.8}\\ Z=1.3384[/tex]
A z-score of 1.3384 corresponds to the 90.96th percentile of a normal distribution. Therefore, the probability that glucose exceeds 120 in this population is:
[tex]P(X>120) = 1-0.9096=0.0904 = 9.04\%[/tex]
Answer:
Probability that glucose exceeds 120 in this population is 0.09012.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that in a population of adults between the ages of 18 and 49, glucose follows a normal distribution with a mean of 93.5 and standard deviation of 19.8, i.e.; [tex]\mu[/tex] = 93.5 and [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 19.8 .
Let X = amount of glucose i.e. X ~ N([tex]\mu = 93.5 , \sigma^{2} = 19.8^{2}[/tex])
Now, the Z score probability is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
So,Probability that glucose exceeds 120 in this population =P(X>120)
P(X > 120) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{120-93.5}{19.8}[/tex] ) = P(Z > 1.34) = 1 - P(Z <= 1.34)
= 1 - 0.90988 = 0.09012 .
(1 point) Find the length L and width W (with W≤L) of the rectangle with perimeter 100 that has maximum area, and then find the maximum area.
Answer:
Width = 25
Length = 25
Area = 625
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the sum of its four sides (2L+2W) while the area is given by the product of the its length by its width (LW). It is possible to write the area as a function of width as follows:
[tex]100 = 2L+2W\\L = 50-W\\A=LW=W*(50-W)\\A=50W - W^2[/tex]
The value of W for which the derivate of the area function is zero is the width that yields the maximum area:
[tex]A=50W - W^2\\\frac{dA}{dW}=0=50 - 2W\\ W=25[/tex]
With the value of the width, the length (L) and the area (A) can be also be found:
[tex]L=50-25 = 25\\A=W*L=25*25\\A=625[/tex]
Since the values satisfy the condition W≤L, the answer is:
Width = 25
Length = 25
Area = 625
10) Thirty-seven percent of the American population has blood type O+. What is the probability that at least four of the next five Americans tested will have blood type O+?
Answer:
0.06597
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that thirty-seven percent of the American population has blood type O+
Five Americans are tested for blood group.
Assuming these five Americans are not related, we can say that each person is independent of the other to have O+ blood group.
Also probability of any one having this blood group = p = 0.37
So X no of Americans out of five who were having this blood group is binomial with p =0.37 and n =5
Required probability
=The probability that at least four of the next five Americans tested will have blood type O+
= [tex]P(X\geq 4)\\= P(X=4)+P(x=5)\\= 5C4 (0.37)^4 (1-0.37) + 5C5 (0.37)^5\\= 0.06597[/tex]
Answer:
Required probability = 0.066
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Thirty-seven percent of the American population has blood type O+.
Firstly, the binomial probability is given by;
[tex]P(X=r) =\binom{n}{r}p^{r}(1-p)^{n-r} for x = 0,1,2,3,....[/tex]
where, n = number of trails(samples) taken = 5 Americans
r = number of successes = at least four
p = probability of success and success in our question is % of
the American population having blood type O+ , i.e. 37%.
Let X = Number of people tested having blood type O+
So, X ~ [tex]Binom(n=5,p=0.37)[/tex]
So, probability that at least four of the next five Americans tested will have blood type O+ = P(X >= 4)
P(X >= 4) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)
= [tex]\binom{5}{4}0.37^{4}(1-0.37)^{5-4} + \binom{5}{5}0.37^{5}(1-0.37)^{5-5}[/tex]
= [tex]5*0.37^{4}*0.63^{1} +1*0.37^{5}*1[/tex] = 0.066.
In a data set with a minimum value of 54.5 and a maximum value of 98.6 with 300 observations, there are 186 points less than 81.2. Find the percentile for 81.2.
Answer:
81.2 is the 62th percentile
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the interpretation for a percentile?
When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.
300 observations, there are 186 points less than 81.2. Find the percentile for 81.2.
So
[tex]p = \frac{186}{300} = 0.62[/tex]
81.2 is the 62th percentile

Listed below are body temperatures from five different subjects measured at 8 AM and again at 12 AM.
Find the values of d and s_d. In general, what does μ_d represent?
Temperature (°F)at 8 AM 97.5 99.3 97.8 97.5 97.4
Temperature (°F)at 12 AM 98.0 99.6 98.1 97.1 97.7
Answer:
The value of [tex]\bar d[/tex] is -0.2.
The value of [tex]s_{\bar d}[/tex] is 0.3464.
[tex]\mu_{d}[/tex] = mean difference in body temperatures.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data for body temperatures from five different subjects measured at 8 AM and again at 12 AM are provided.
The formula of [tex]\bar d[/tex] and [tex]s_{\bar d}[/tex] are:
[tex]\bar d=\frac{1}{n}\sum (x_{1}-x_{2})[/tex]
[tex]s_{\bar d}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (d_{i}-\bar d)^{2}}[/tex]
Consider the table below.
Compute the value of [tex]\bar d[/tex] as follows:
[tex]\bar d=\frac{1}{n}\sum (x_{1}-x_{2})=\frac{1}{5}\times-1=-0.2[/tex]
Thus, the value of [tex]\bar d[/tex] is -0.2.
Compute the value of [tex]s_{\bar d}[/tex] as follows:
[tex]s_{\bar d}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (d_{i}-\bar d)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.48}{4}}=0.3464[/tex]
Thus, the value of [tex]s_{\bar d}[/tex] is 0.3464.
The variable [tex]\mu_{d}[/tex] represents the mean difference in body temperatures measured at 8 AM and again at 12 AM.
uppose that a car weighing 4000 pounds is supported by four shock adsorbers, each with a spring constant of 540 lbs/inch. Assume no damping and determine the period of oscillation TT of the vertical motion of the car.
Answer:
0.435 s
Step-by-step explanation:
Weight of car=m=4000 pounds
Spring constant for each shock absorber=k=540lbs/in
Effective spring constant=4k=4(540)=2160 lbs/in
We have to find the period of oscillation of the vertical motion by assuming no damping.
Time period, T=[tex]2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{w}{gk}[/tex]
Where g=[tex]386 in/s^2[/tex]
[tex]\pi=3.14[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]T=2\times 3.14\sqrt{\frac{4000}{386\times 2160}}=0.435 s[/tex]
Hence,the period of oscillation of the vertical motion of the car=0.435 s
For example, the auctioneer has estimated that the likelihood that the second bidder will bid $2,000,000 is 90%. a) Use a decision tree to determine the optimal decision strategy for which bid to accept. b) Draw a risk profile for the optimal decision.
Answer:
See explanation to get answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution
As per the data and information given in the question, there are three Bidders, one each on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Bidder 1 may bid on Monday either for $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 with probabilities 0.5 each
Therefore expected pay-off for Bidder 1 is $2,500,000 (2,000,000*.52 + 3,000,000*.5)
Bidder 2 may bid on Tuesday either for $2,000,000 with probability 0.9 or $4,000,000 with probability 0.1
Therefore expected pay-off for Bidder 2 is $2,200,000 (2,000,000*.9 + 4,000,000*.1)
Bidder 3 may bid on Wednesday either for $1,000,000 with probability 0.7 or for $4,000,000 with probability 0.3
Therefore expected pay-off for Bidder 3 is $1,900,000 (1,000,000*.7 + 4,000,000*.3)
Based on the comparison of the above mentioned calculations for the expected pay-off for the bidders, it is recommended that the optimal decision strategy among the bidders is to go for Bidder 1 with highest expected pay-off of $2,500,000 and accept the bid of Bidder 1.
Risk profile for the optimal solution is $2,000,000 with probability 0.5 and $3,000,000 with probability 0.5
Bid may be for $4,000,000 with probability of 0.1 by Bidder 2 or with probability 0.3 by Bidder 3
Lucy is using a one-sample t ‑test based on a simple random sample of size n = 22 to test the null hypothesis H 0 : μ = 16.000 cm against the alternative H 1 : μ < 16.000 cm. The sample has mean ¯¯¯ x = 16.218 cm and standard deviation is s = 0.764 cm. Determine the value of the t ‑statistic for this test. Give your answer to three decimal places.
Answer:
The value of test statistic is 1.338
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Population mean, μ = 16.000
Sample mean, [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] = 16.218
Sample size, n = 22
Alpha, α = 0.05
Sample standard deviation, s = 0.764
First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis
[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 16.000\text{ cm}\\H_A: \mu < 16.000\text{ cm}[/tex]
We use one-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.
Formula:
[tex]t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }[/tex]
Putting all the values, we have
[tex]t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{16.218 - 16.000}{\frac{0.764}{\sqrt{22}} } = 1.338[/tex]
Thus, the value of test statistic is 1.338
A telephone survey conducted by the Maritz Marketing Research company found that 43% of Americans expect to save more money next year than they saved last year. Forty-five percent of those surveyed plan to reduce debt next year. Of those who expect to save more money next year, 81% plan to reduce debt next year. An American is selected randomly. a. What is the probability that this person expects to save more money next year and plans to reduce debt next year? b. What is the probability that this person expects to save more money next year or plans to reduce debt next year? c. What is the probability that this person expects to save more money next year and does not plan to reduce debt next year? d. What is the probability that this person does not expect to save more money given that he/she does plan to reduce debt next year?
Answer:
A) P(A⋂B) = 0.35
B) P(A⋃B)= 0.53
C) P(A⋂B′) = 0.08
D) P(A|B) = 0.778
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the following from the question:
- Let Proportion of Americans who expect to save more money next year than they saved last year be
P(A) and its = 0.43
-Let proportion who plan to reduce debt next year be P(B) and it's =0.81
A) probability that this person expects to save more money next year and plans to reduce debt next year which is; P(A⋂B) = 0.43 x 0.81 = 0.348 approximately 0.35
B) probability that this person expects to save more money next year or plans to reduce debt next year which is;
P(A⋃B)= P(A) + P(B) − P(A⋂B)
So, P(A⋃B)= 0.43 + 0.45 − 0.35 = 0.53
C). Probability that this person expects to save more money next year and does not plan to reduce debt next year which is;
P(A⋂B′) = P(A) − P(A⋂B)
P(A⋂B′) =0.43 − 0.35 = 0.08
D) Probability that this person does not expect to save more money given that he/she does plan to reduce debt next year which is;
P(A|B) = [P(A⋂B)] / P(B)
So P(A|B) =0.35/0.45 = 0.778
The probabilities for the given scenarios are as follows: a. 34.93%, b. 53.07%, c. 8.07%, and d. 126.67%.
Explanation:a. To find the probability that a person expects to save more money next year and plans to reduce debt next year, we need to multiply the probabilities of both events occurring. The probability that a person expects to save more money next year is 43%, and of those who expect to save more money next year, 81% plan to reduce debt. Therefore, the probability is 0.43 imes 0.81 = 0.3493, or 34.93%.
b. To find the probability that a person expects to save more money next year or plans to reduce debt next year, we can add the probabilities of both events occurring and subtract the probability of both events occurring at the same time (found in part a). The probability of expecting to save more money next year is 43%, and the probability of planning to reduce debt next year is 45%. Therefore, the probability is 0.43 + 0.45 - 0.3493 = 0.5307, or 53.07%.
c. To find the probability that a person expects to save more money next year and does not plan to reduce debt next year, we subtract the probability from part a from the probability of expecting to save more money next year. The probability of expecting to save more money next year is 43%, and the probability of both expecting to save more money and planning to reduce debt is 34.93%. Therefore, the probability is 0.43 - 0.3493 = 0.0807, or 8.07%.
d. To find the probability that a person does not expect to save more money given that he/she does plan to reduce debt next year, we need to divide the probability of not expecting to save more money by the probability of planning to reduce debt next year. The probability of not expecting to save more money is 1 - 0.43 = 0.57, and the probability of planning to reduce debt next year is 45%. Therefore, the probability is 0.57 / 0.45 = 1.2667, or 126.67%.

8. The distribution for the time it takes a student to complete the fall class registration has mean of 94 minutes and standard deviation of 10 minutes. For a random sample of 80 students, determine the mean and standard deviation (standard error) of the sample mean. What can you say about the sampling distribution of the sample mean and why
Answer:
Mean = 94
Standard deviation = 1.12
The sampling distribution of the sample mean is going to be normally distributed, beause the size of the samples are 80, which is larger than 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation, which is also called standard error [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In this problem, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 94, \sigma = 10[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
The sampling distribution of the sample mean is going to be normally distributed, beause the size of the samples are 80, which is larger than 30.
Mean = 94
Standard deviation:
[tex]s = \frac{10}{\sqrt{80}} = 1.12[/tex]
The states of Ohio, Iowa, and Idaho are often confused, probably because the names sound so similar. Each year, the State Tourism Directors of these three states drive to a meeting in one of the state capitals to discuss strategies for attracting tourists to their states so that the states will become better known. The location of the meeting is selected at random from the three state capitals. The shortest highway distance from Boise, Idaho to Columbus, Ohio passes through Des Moines, Iowa. The highway distance from Boise to Des Moines is 1350 miles, and the distance from Des Moines to Columbus is 650 miles.

According to some internet research, 85.2% of adult Americans have some form of medical insurance, and 75.9% of adult Americans have some form of dental insurance. If 89.4% of adult Americans have either medical or dental insurance, then what is the probability that a randomly selected adult American with have both medical and dental insurance
Answer:
0.717 or 71.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
P(M) = 0.852
P(D) = 0.759
P(M or D) = 0.894
The probability that a randomly selected American has both medical and dental insurance is given by the probability of having medical insurance, added to the probability of having dental insurance, minus the probability of having either insurance:
[tex]P(M\ and\ D) = P(M)+P(D)-P(M\ or\ D)\\P(M\ and\ D) =0.852+0.759-0.894\\P(M\ and\ D) =0.717=71.7\%[/tex]
The probability is 0.717 or 71.7%.
The result is a 71.7% probability of an adult American having both insurances.
The question revolves around finding the probability of a randomly selected adult American having both medical and dental insurance. To calculate this, we use the principle of inclusion-exclusion. According to the problem statement, the percentage of adults with medical insurance is 85.2%, with dental insurance is 75.9%, and with either of the two is 89.4%. The principle of inclusion-exclusion states that the probability of the union of two events (medical or dental insurance) is equal to the sum of the probabilities of each event minus the probability of their intersection (both insurances).
Let's denote the following:
P(Medical) = the probability of having medical insurance = 85.2%P(Dental) = the probability of having dental insurance = 75.9%P(Medical or Dental) = the probability of having either medical or dental insurance = 89.4%P(Medical and Dental) = the probability of having both medical and dental insuranceUsing the principle of inclusion-exclusion, we find P(Medical and Dental) as follows:
P(Medical and Dental) = P(Medical) + P(Dental) - P(Medical or Dental)
P(Medical and Dental) = 85.2% + 75.9% - 89.4%
P(Medical and Dental) = 160.1% - 89.4%
P(Medical and Dental) = 71.7%
Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected adult American will have both medical and dental insurance is 71.7%.
Mary got 85% correct on her math test. Mary missed 6 questions. How many total questions were on her math final?
Answer: there were 40 questions on her math final.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the total number of questions in the math test.
Mary got 85% correct on her math test. This means that the number of questions that she got right is
85/100 × x = 0.85 × x = 0.85x
This also means that the number of questions that she missed would be
x - 0.85x = 0.15x
Therefore, if Mary missed 6 questions, it means that
0.15x = 6
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.15, it becomes
0.15x/0.15 = 6/0.15
x = 40
The paraboloid z = 8 − x − x2 − 2y2 intersects the plane x = 3 in a parabola. Find parametric equations in terms of t for the tangent line to this parabola at the point (3, 2, −12). (Enter your answer as a comma-separated list of equations. Let x, y, and z be in terms of t.)
When [tex]x=3[/tex], we get the parabola
[tex]z=-4-2y^2[/tex]
We can parameterize this parabola by
[tex]\vec r(t)=(3,t,-4-2t^2)[/tex]
Then the tangent vector to this parabola is
[tex]\vec T(t)=\dfrac{\mathrm d\vec r(t)}{\mathrm dt}=(0,1,-4t)[/tex]
We get the point (3, 2, -12) when [tex]t=2[/tex], for which the tangent vector is
[tex]\vec T(2)=(0,1,-8)[/tex]
Then the line tangent to the parabola at [tex]t=2[/tex] passing through the point (3, 2, -12) has vector equation
[tex]\ell(t)=(3,2,-12)+t(0,1,-8)=(3,2+t,-12-8t)[/tex]
which in parametric form is
[tex]\begin{cases}x(t)=3\\y(t)=2+t\\z(t)=-12-8t\end{cases}[/tex]
for [tex]t\in\Bbb R[/tex].
The parametric equation of the tangent line is [tex]L(t)=(3,2+t,-12-8t)[/tex]
Parabola :The equation of Paraboloid is,
[tex]z =8-x-x^{2} -2y^{2}[/tex]
Equation of parabola when [tex]x = 3[/tex] is,
[tex]z=8-3-3^{2} -2y^{2} \\\\z=-4-2y^{2}[/tex]
The parametric equation of parabola will be,
[tex]r(t)=(3,t,-4-2t^{2} )[/tex]
Now, we have to find Tangent vector to this parabola is,
[tex]T(t)=\frac{dr(t)}{dt}=(0,1,-4t)[/tex]
We get, the point [tex](3, 2, -12)[/tex] when [tex]t=2[/tex]
The tangent vector will be,

State whether the data described below are discrete or continuous, and explain why. The volumes (in cubic feet) of dilferent rooms A. The data are discrete because the data can only take on specific values. B. The data are continuous because the data can only take on specific values. C. The data are discrete because the data can take on any value in an interval. D. The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval
Answer:
Option D) The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval
Step-by-step explanation:
Discrete Data:
The value of discrete data can be expressed in whole numbers.They cannot take all the values within an interval.Discrete variables are usually counted not measured.Continuous data:
The value of continuous data can be expressed in decimals.They can take all the values within an interval.Continuous variables are usually measured not counted.The volumes (in cubic feet) of different rooms
Since the volume can be expressed in decimals, it can take all the values within an interval. Also volume is measured not counted. Hence, it is a continuous variable.
Thus, the correct answer is:
Option D) The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval
Final answer:
The correct answer is D: The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.
Explanation:
The volumes (in cubic feet) of different rooms would be considered continuous data because they can take on any value within an interval.
Unlike discrete data, which can only take on specific counting numbers, continuous data includes an infinite number of potential values.
For instance, a room can have a volume of 500.5 cubic feet, 500.55 cubic feet, 500.555 cubic feet, and so forth.
This level of precision is due to the fact that volume is a measurable attribute that does not have to be a whole number and can include fractions or decimals as well.
Therefore, the correct answer is D: The data are continuous because the data can take on any value in an interval.
Two computer specialists are completing work orders. The first specialist receives 60% of all orders. Each order takes her Exponential amount of time with parameter λ1 = 3 hrs−1. The second specialist receives the remaining 40% of orders. Each order takes him Exponential amount of time with parameter λ2 = 2 hrs−1. A certain order was submitted 30 minutes ago, and it is still not ready. What is the probability that the first specialist is working on it?
Answer:
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
Let W be the event the order is not ready in 30 mins.
Then, let A be the event the first worker got the order. So, we want the probability, P(A/W). Using formula for conditional probability gives:
[tex]P (A/W) = \frac{P(AnW)}{P(W)}[/tex]
In this case, we need to calculate a couple of probabilities.
The event that W can happen can be like this:
1. the first worker got the order
2. the second worker got the order and it is not ready.
the probability for both events are disjoint, so:
for item (1) the probability will be 0.6 times the probability that the first worker takes 30 mins to do the job.
Calculating:
The probability that an exponential with parameter is 2 is given by:
[tex]P = \frac{1}{2}e^-{\frac{2}2} }[/tex]
so, the probability is [tex]0.6e^{-1}[/tex]
thus, the probability is > t is [tex]e^{-\lambda t }[/tex]
That's the same as 0.6
The probability that the first specialist is working on it is 0.4764.
How to calculate the probability?
P(not ready in 30 minutes(0.5 hrs) will be:
=P(specialist 1) × P(not ready in 30 minutes |specialist 1) + P(specialist 2) × P(not ready in 30 minutes specialist 2)
= 0.6 × (e-0.5*3) + 0.4 × (e-0.5*2)
= 0.6 × 0.2231 + 0.4 × 0.3679
= 0.2810
Therefore P(first specialist given not ready in 30 minutes(0.5 hrs))
=P(specialist 1) × P(not ready in 30 minutes |specialist 1)/P(not ready in 30 minutes(0.5 hrs))
=0.6 × (e-0.5*3)/0.2810
=0.6 × 0.2231/0.2810
= 0.4764

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:
[tex]X \sim Binom(n=17, p=0.7)[/tex]
The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:
[tex]P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:
[tex]nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}[/tex]

The probability that all 16 passengers will check their bags given a 70% chance for each passenger is found using a binomial distribution, resulting in a probability of 0.0047 when rounded to four decimal places.
Explanation:The question involves calculating the probability of passengers checking bags in a binomial distribution context. Since each passenger is an independent trial and has a 70 percent chance or probability (p=0.70) of checking bags, this indeed constitutes a binomial problem. Here, success is defined as a passenger checking their bags.
To find the probability that all 16 passengers will check their bags, we need to consider the binomial probability formula for exactly 'k' successes in 'n' trials: P(X = k) = (n choose k) * p^k * (1-p)^(n-k). For this case, every passenger checks their bags, meaning 'k' is 16 and 'n' is also 16.
The formula simplifies in this scenario to P(X = 16) = 0.70^16, as the combination of 16 choose 16 is 1. Following the calculation:
P(X = 16) = 0.70^16 = 0.0047 (rounded to four decimal places).

Given the following: zA = 20 - 3x zB = 18 - 2y, where z is marginal utility per dollar spent, x is the amount spent on product A, and y is the amount spent on product B. Assume that the consumer has $14 to spend on A and B—that is: x + y = $14.
Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers.
a. How is the $14 best allocated between A and B?
$ on A.
$ on B.
b. How much utility will the marginal dollar yield? utils.
Answer:
a. x= $6, y= $8
b. z= $2
Step-by-step explanation:
at equilibrium, the marginal utility per dollar spent will be equal i.e
zA=zB
20-3x=18-2y
upon simplification, we arrive at
[tex]x=\frac{2}{3} (1+y)\\[/tex]......equation 1
since the total amount to spend is $14, then
x+y=14
x=14-y..............equation 2
if we solve equation 1 and equation 2 simultaneously
[tex]14-y=\frac{2}{3} (1+y)\\42-3y=2+2y\\5y=40\\y=8[/tex]
Hence for y=8
x=14-y=14-8
x=6
Hence the amount spent on Product A is $6 and the amount spent on product B is $8
b. to determine the amount of utility the marginal dollar will yield, we substitute the values of y and x into the the given equation,
zA=20-3x=20-3(6)
zA=20-18=2
zB=18-2y=18-2(8)
zB=18-16=2
hence the amount spent on the marginal utility is $2

In order to complete the service line information on claims when units of measure are involved insurance math is required. For example this is the HCPCS description for an injection of the drug Eloxatin: J9263 oxaliplatain, 0.5 mg if the physician provided 50 mg infusion of the drug instead of an injection the service line is j9263 x 100 to report a unit of 50(100x 0.5 mg=50). What is the unit reported for service line information if a 150 mg infusion is provided?
Answer:
The service line is J9263 x 300 to report a unit of 150(300x 0.5 mg = 150).
Step-by-step explanation:
The drug J9263 Eloxatin contains 0.5 mg oxaliplatain.
For a infusion of 50 mg the unit reported for service line information is:
- Service line: J9263 x 100
- Unit reported for service line information: 50 = 100 x 0.5 mg
Hence, for a infusion of 150 mg, the unit reported for service line information is:
- Unit reported: 150(300 x 0.5 mg = 150)
- Service line information: J9263 x 300
Therefore, if the physician provided 150 mg infusion of the drug instead of an injection the service line is J9263 x 300 to report a unit of 150(300x 0.5 mg = 150).
I hope it helps you!
The unit reported for service line information for 150 mg infusion based on the injection description is :
150(300x 0.5mg = 150) j9263 × 300Given the injection description :
0.5 mg if physician provided 50 mg of infusion Service line = j9263 × 100For 150 mg infusion :
(150 mg ÷ 50 mg) = 3Unit reported would be:
[50(100x 0.5mg = 150)] × 3 = 150(300x 0.5mg=150)3(j9263 × 100) = j9263 × 300Therefore, the service line information and the unit reported would be:

The US Census lists the population of the United States as 249 million in 1990, 281 million in 2000, and 309 million in 2010. Fit a second-degree polynomial P(t)=a_{2}t^{2}+a_{1}t+a_{0} passing through these points, where t represents years after 1990 (so t=0 corresponds to 1990) and P(t) represents population in millions (so P(0)=249). Sketch the parabola,P(t). Use the model to predict the population in the years 2020 and 2030. (Source: US Census Bureau). You may use technology to solve the system of 3 equations and 3 unknowns used to find your coefficients/constants for your model. The setup of your 3x3 linear system must be shown.
Answer: US predicted population in 2020 and 2030 will be 333 million and 353 million, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Three different points are required to determine the coefficients of correspondent second-order polynomial. Three linear equations are form after substituting the variables associated with those points. [tex]t^{*}[/tex] is the year and [tex]p[/tex] is the population according to US census, measured in millions. That is to say:
[tex]a_{2}\cdot 1990^{2} + a_{1}\cdot 1990 + a_{0} = 249\\a_{2}\cdot 2000^{2} + a_{1}\cdot 2000 + a_{0} = 281\\a_{2}\cdot 2010^{2} + a_{1}\cdot 2010 + a_{0} = 309[/tex]
There are different approaches to solve linear equation systems. In this problem, a matrix-based approach will be used and a solver will be applied in order to minimize the effort and time required to make the need operations. The solution of the 3 x 3 linear system is shown as following:
[tex]a_{2} = -\frac{1}{50},a_{1}=83,a_o=-85719[/tex]
Now, the second-order polynomial is:
[tex]p(t)=-\frac{1}{50}\cdot (t+1990)^{2}+83\cdot(t+1990)-85719[/tex], where [tex]p(t) = 249[/tex] when [tex]t=0[/tex].
The predicted populations are:
[tex]p(30) = 333, p(40) = 353[/tex]
US predicted population in 2020 and 2030 will be 333 million and 353 million, respectively.
An aspiring venture capitalist is interested in studying early-stage companies. She claims that the proportion of new businesses that earn a profit within the first two years of operation is more than 18%. If the venture capitalist chooses a 10% significance level, what is/are the critical value(s) for the hypothesis test
Answer:
The critical value is 6.314
Step-by-step explanation:
Null hypothesis: The proportion of businesses that earn a profit within the first two years of operation is 80%
Alternate hypothesis: The proportion of businesses e earn a profit within the first two years of operation is greater than 18%
The hypothesis test has one critical value because it is a one-tailed test. It is a one-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is expressed using the inequality, greater than.
n = 2
degree of freedom = n - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1
significance level = 10%
Using the t-distribution table, critical value corresponding to 1 degree of freedom and 10% significance level is 6.314.
Answer:
To determine the critical value or values for a one-proportion z-test at the 10% significance level when the hypothesis test is left- or right-tailed, we must use the look-up table for zz0.01. Since this is a right-tailed test, our critical value is positive 1.282.
4. Entry to a certain University is determined by a national test. The scores on this test are normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100. Tom wants to be admitted to this university and he knows that he must score better than at least 70% of the students who took the test. Tom takes the test and scores 585. Will he be admitted to this university
Answer:
Yes, Tom must be admitted to this university.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the scores on national test are normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.
Also, we are provided with the condition that Tom wants to be admitted to this university and he knows that he must score better than at least 70% of the students who took the test.
Let, X = score in national test, so X ~ N([tex]\mu=500 , \sigma^{2} = 100^{2}[/tex])
The standard normal z distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
Now, z score of probability that tom scores 585 is;
Z = [tex]\frac{585-500}{100}[/tex] = 0.85
Now, proportion of students scoring below 85% marks is given by;
P(Z < 0.85) = 0.80234
This shows that Tom scored 80.23% of the students who took test while he just have to score more than 70%.
So, it means that Tom must be admitted to this university.

Step-by-step explanation:
We would apply the formula for determining future value involving constant deposits at constant intervals. It is expressed as
S = R[{(1 + r)^n - 1)}/r][1 + r]
Where
S represents the future value of the investment.
R represents the regular payments made(could be weekly, monthly)
r = represents interest rate/number of payment intervals
n represents the total number of payments made.
From the information given,
Since she would be taking $1500 four times in a year, then
R = 1500
r = 0.04/4 = 0.01
n = 3 × 20 = 60 times in 20 years
Therefore,
S = 1500[{(1 + 0.01)^60 - 1)}/0.01][1 + 0.01]
S = 1500[{(1.01)^60 - 1)}/0.01][1.01]
S = 1500[{(1.817 - 1)}/0.01][1.01]
S = 1500[0.817/0.01][1.01]
S = 1500[81.7][1.01]
S = 1500 × 82.517
S = 123775.5
Identify the rule of inference that is used to derive the conclusion "You do not eat tofu" from the statements "For all x, if x is healthy to eat, then x does not taste good," "Tofu is healthy to eat," and "You only eat what tastes good."
"You do not eat tofu" is derived using the Modus Tollens rule of inference.
The rule of inference that is used to derive the conclusion "You do not eat tofu" from the given statements is Modus Tollens.
Modus Tollens is a valid deductive argument form that follows this structure:
1. If P, then Q.
2. Not Q.
3. Therefore, not P.
The statements correspond to:
1. For all x, if x is healthy to eat, then x does not taste good.
2. Tofu is healthy to eat.
3. You only eat what tastes good.
Using these statements, we can infer:
1. If tofu is healthy to eat, then tofu does not taste good. (From statement 1)
2. Tofu does not taste good. (From statement 2 and the derived inference)
3. Therefore, you do not eat tofu. (Using Modus Tollens with statement 3 and the derived inference)
So, the conclusion "You do not eat tofu" is derived using the Modus Tollens rule of inference.

Final answer:
The rule of inference used to derive the conclusion 'You do not eat tofu' is called Modus Tollens, which allows to deduce that if 'p implies q' is true and 'q' is false, then 'p' must also be false.
Explanation:
The student is asking about a logical inference rule used to derive a conclusion from a set of premises. Considering the provided statements, which can be summarized as:
For all x, if x is healthy to eat, then x does not taste good (All healthy foods taste bad).
Tofu is healthy to eat.
You only eat what tastes good.
We can see that the rule of inference used here is Modus Tollens. This rule of inference suggests that if we have a conditional statement (if p then q) and it is given that the consequent q is false (not q), then the antecedent p must also be false (not p).
To apply Modus Tollens:
Translate the given information into logical statements:
a) If something is healthy (p) then it does not taste good (q).
b) Tofu is healthy (p).
c) You do not eat what does not taste good (¬q).
Since tofu is healthy (p), it does not taste good as per the given rule (therefore, q is true). But the third statement says you do not eat what does not taste good, meaning (¬q). If (¬q) is valid, then by Modus Tollens, you do not eat tofu (¬p).
Thus, the usage of Modus Tollens allows us to infer that 'You do not eat tofu' from the given premises.
On any given day, there is a 52% chance of there being an auto-related accident on a certain stretch of highway. The occurrence of an accident from one day to the next is independent. (Use Statdisk to compute the values and write the answers below) (a). What is the probability that there will be 4 accidents in the next 9 days
Answer:
See the explanation.Step-by-step explanation:
We need to observe total 9 days.First we need to choose any 4 days from the 9 days. From these total 9 days, 4 days can be chosen in [tex]^9C_4 = \frac{9!}{4!\times5!} = \frac{6\times7\times8\times9}{4!} = 126[/tex] ways.
The probability of occurring an auto related accident is [tex]\frac{52}{100}[/tex].
Similarly, the probability of not occurring an accident is [tex]\frac{100 - 52}{100} = \frac{48}{100}[/tex].
Hence, the required probability is [tex]126\times(\frac{52}{100} )^4(\frac{48}{100} )^5[/tex].

The probability that a passenger does not show up is 0.10, and the passengers behave independently. a. What is the probability that every passenger who shows up can take the flight?b. What is the probability that the flight departs with empty seats?
Answer:
a) 0.9961
b) 0.9886
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information:
We treat passenger not showing up as a success.
P(passenger not showing up) = 0.10
Then the number of passengers follows a binomial distribution, where
[tex]P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.
Now, we are given n = 125
a) probability that every passenger who shows up can take the flight
[tex]P(x \geq 5) = 1- P(x = 0) - P(x = 1)-P(x = 2) - P(x = 3) - P(x = 4) \\= 1-\binom{125}{0}(0.10)^0(1-0.10)^{125} -...-\binom{125}{4}(0.10)^4(1-0.10)^{121}\\=0.9961[/tex]
b) probability that the flight departs with empty seats
[tex]P(x > 5) =P(x\geq 5) - P(x = 5) \\= 0.9961 -\binom{125}{5}(0.10)^5(1-0.10)^{120}\\=0.9961-0.0075\\ = 0.9886[/tex]
Show triangle XMZ is congruent to triangle YMZ. Support each part of your answer. Hint: mark the diagram.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be line xy.
y represents line zm.
z is line zx or line zy
The area of one of the smaller triangles is x/2* y.
same for the other triangle.
The perimeter for either one of the triangles is x/2+y+z.
