To find cos(1/2 B) given cos B = 3/5, we can use the double angle identity for cosine. The positive value of cos(1/2 B) in simplest radical form with a rational denominator is (2√5) / 5.
Explanation:If cos B = 3/5, we are looking to find cos(1/2 B) in simplest radical form. To find this, we can use the double angle identity for cosine, which tells us that cos(2θ) = 2cos^2(θ) - 1. If we let θ = 1/2 B, then B = 2θ and the identity becomes cos(B) = 2cos^2(1/2 B) - 1. We can solve for cos(1/2 B) by rearranging into 2cos^2(1/2 B) = cos(B) + 1. Substituting the known value of cos(B) gives us:
2cos^2(1/2 B) = 3/5 + 1 = 8/5
So,
cos^2(1/2 B) = 8/10
cos^2(1/2 B) = 4/5
Taking the positive square root, since cosine is positive in the question:
cos(1/2 B) = √(4/5)
cos(1/2 B) = √4 / √5
cos(1/2 B) = 2 / √sqrt(5)
To rationalize the denominator, we multiply the numerator and denominator by √5:
cos(1/2 B) = (2√5) / 5
Therefore, the positive value of cos(1/2 B), in simplest radical form with a rational denominator, is (2√5) / 5.
The positive value of [tex]$\cos \frac{1}{2}B$[/tex] in simplest radical form with a rational denominator is [tex]$\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$[/tex].
To find the value of [tex]$\cos \frac{1}{2}[/tex][tex]B$ given $\cos B[/tex][tex]= \frac{3}{5}$[/tex], we can use the half-angle formula for cosine:
[tex]\[ \cos \frac{1}{2}B = \pm\sqrt{\frac{1 + \cos B}{2}} \][/tex]
Since we are looking for the positive value, we will use the positive square root. Plugging in the given value of [tex]$\cos B$[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \cos \frac{1}{2}B = \sqrt{\frac{1 + \frac{3}{5}}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{\frac{5}{5} + \frac{3}{5}}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{\frac{8}{5}}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{8}{5} \cdot \frac{1}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{8}{10}} = \sqrt{\frac{4}{5}} \][/tex]
Now, we can simplify the square root of a fraction by taking the square root of the numerator and the denominator separately:
[tex]\[ \cos \frac{1}{2}B = \frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} \][/tex]
This is the simplest radical form with a rational denominator. Note that we do not need to rationalize the denominator since the question only asks for a rational denominator, not necessarily an integer denominator. The answer[tex]$\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$[/tex] is already in the required form."

You are testing the null hypothesis that the population proportion equals .45, using data you collected from a sample of 100 adults. You sample proportion equals .30. What does Z equal
Answer:
[tex]z=\frac{0.3 -0.45}{\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{100}}}=-3.015[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Data given and notation
n=100 represent the random sample taken
[tex]\hat p=0.3[/tex] estimated proportion of interest
[tex]p_o=0.45[/tex] is the value that we want to test
[tex]\alpha[/tex] represent the significance level
z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value (variable of interest)
Concepts and formulas to use
We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is 0.45.:
Null hypothesis:[tex]p=0.45[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p \neq 0.45[/tex]
When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)
The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex] is significantly different from a hypothesized value [tex]p_o[/tex].
Calculate the statistic
Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:
[tex]z=\frac{0.3 -0.45}{\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{100}}}=-3.015[/tex]
The z-value is approximately -3.01.
To test the null hypothesis about a population proportion, you can use the z-test for proportions. The formula for the z-test statistic for proportions is:
[tex]z= \frac{p -p_0}{\frac{\sqrt{p_0(1 -p_0)}}{n} }[/tex]
where:
p is the sample proportion,
p_0 is the hypothesized population proportion under the null hypothesis, n is the sample size.
In your case:
p =0.30 (sample proportion),
p_0 =0.45 (hypothesized population proportion),
n=100 (sample size).
Now plug these values into the formula:
Calculate the values within the brackets first:
[tex]z= \frac{0.30 - 0.45}{\frac{\sqrt{0.45(1 -0.45)}}{100} }[/tex]
[tex]z= \frac{-0.15}{\frac{\sqrt{0.45(0.55)}}{100} }[/tex]
[tex]z= \frac{-0.15}{\frac{\sqrt{0.2475}}{100} }[/tex]
[tex]z= \frac{-0.15}{\sqrt{0.002475} }[/tex]
z≈−3.01
So, the z-value is approximately -3.01.

Find the mean number of times a 6 comes up. Find the mean number of times an odd number comes up. Find the standard deviation of the number of times a 6 comes up. Find the standard deviation of the number of times an odd number comes up.
Answer:
0.2605, 0.2188, 1.33, 4, 1.0540, 1.4142
Step-by-step explanation:
A fair die is rolled 8 times.
a. What is the probability that the die comes up 6 exactly twice?
b. What is the probability that the die comes up an odd number exactly five times?
c. Find the mean number of times a 6 comes up.
d. Find the mean number of times an odd number comes up.
e. Find the standard deviation of the number of times a 6 comes up.
f. Find the standard deviation of the number of times an odd number comes up.
a. A die is rolled 8 times. If A represent the number of times a 6 comes up. For a fair die the probability that the die comes up 6 is 1/6 - Thus A ~ Bin(8, 1/6)
The probability mass function of the random variable A is
[tex]p(A) = \left \{ {\frac{8!}{x!(8 - x)!}*(\frac{1}{6} )^{A}*(\frac{5}{6} )^{8-A} } \right. for A=0,1, ...8[/tex]
hence, p(6 twice) implies P(A=2)
that is P(2) substitute A = 2
[tex]p(2) = \left \{ {\frac{8!}{2!(8 - 2)!}*(\frac{1}{6} )^{2}*(\frac{5}{6} )^{8-2} } \right. for A=0,1, ...8[/tex]
[tex]p(2)=\frac{8!}{2!6!} *(\frac{1}{6} )^{2} *(\frac{5}{6} )^{6}[/tex]
p(2) = 0.2605
b. If B represent the number of times an odd number comes up. For the fair die the probability that an odd number comes up is 0.5.
Thus B ~ Bin(8, 1/2 )
The probability mass function of the random variable B is given by
[tex]p(B) = \left \{ {\frac{8!}{B!(8 - B)!}*(\frac{1}{2} )^{B\\}*(\frac{1}{2} )^{8-B} } \right. for B=0,1, ...8[/tex]
hence p(odd comes up 5 times) is
[tex]p(x=5) = p(2)=\frac{8!}{5!3!} *(\frac{1}{2} )^{5} *(\frac{1}{2} )^{3}[/tex]
p(5) = 0.2188
c. let the mean no of times a 6 comes up be μₐ
and let the total number of outcomes be n
using the formula μₐ = nρₐ
μₐ = 8 * 1/6
= 1.33
d. let the mean nos of times an odd nos comes up be μₓ
let the total outcomes be n = 8
let the probability odd be pb = 1/2
μₓ = npb
= 8 * (1/2)
= 4
e. the standard deviation of a random variable A is given as follows
σₐ [tex]= \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
where p = 1/6 (prob 6 outcome)
n = total outcomes = 8
[tex]= \sqrt{8*\frac{1}{6}*\frac{5}{6} }[/tex]
= 1.0540
f. the standard dev of the binomial random variable Y is given by
σ [tex]= \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
where p = 1/2 and n = 8
= [tex]\sqrt{8*\frac{1}{2} *\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

Suppose that, during the next hour, 20 customers each purchase one cup of coffee. Assume that the customers make their decisions independently, and each customer has a 17% probability of ordering decaffeinated coffee. What is the probability that everyone will order a coffee with caffeine? g
Answer:
0.0241 or 2.41%
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each customer has a 17% probability of ordering decaffeinated coffee, the probability of a customer ordering a coffee with caffeine is:
[tex]P(C) = 1-0.17 = 0.83[/tex]
If customers make their decisions independently, the probability that all 20 order a coffee with caffeine is:
[tex]P(X=20)=P(C)^{20}\\P(X=20) = 0.83^{20}=0.0241=2.41\%[/tex]
The probability is 0.0241 or 2.41%.
At St. Eligius Hospital, the weights of newborn babies follow a Normal distribution, with a mean of 7.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 1.2 pounds.
If Dr. Cavanero tells a mother that her newborn baby has a weight that is at the third quartile (or Q3), this means the baby must weigh approximately _____.
Answer:
The baby must weigh approximately 8.31 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Mean, μ = 7.5 pounds
Standard Deviation, σ = 1.2 pounds
We are given that the distribution of weights of newborn babies is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
Formula:
[tex]z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
We have to find the third quartile or [tex]Q_3[/tex]
We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.75
[tex]P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 7.5}{1.2})=0.75[/tex]
Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,
[tex]\displaystyle\frac{x - 7.5}{1.2} = 0.674\\\\x = 8.3088 \approx 8.31[/tex]
Thus, the baby must weigh approximately 8.31 pounds.
A publisher reports that 344% of their readers own a particular make of car. A marketing executive wants to test the claim that the percentage is actually different from the reported percentage. A random sample of 220220 found that 300% of the readers owned a particular make of car. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.020.02 level to support the executive's claim
Answer:
No, there is not enough evidence at the 0.02 level to support the executive's claim.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a publisher reports that 34% of their readers own a particular make of car. A random sample of 220 found that 30% of the readers owned a particular make of car.
And, a marketing executive wants to test the claim that the percentage is actually different from the reported percentage, i.e;
Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p = 0.34 {means that the percentage of readers who own a particular make of car is same as reported 34%}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_1[/tex] : p [tex]\neq[/tex] 0.34 {means that the percentage of readers who own a particular make of car is different from the reported 34%}
The test statistics we will use here is;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\hat p -p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1- \hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, p = actual % of readers who own a particular make of car = 0.34
[tex]\hat p[/tex] = percentage of readers who own a particular make of car in a
sample of 220 = 0.30
n = sample size = 220
So, Test statistics = [tex]\frac{0.30 -0.34}{\sqrt{\frac{0.30(1- 0.30)}{220} } }[/tex]
= -1.30
Now, at 0.02 significance level, the z table gives critical value of -2.3263 to 2.3263. Since our test statistics lie in the range of critical values which means it doesn't lie in the rejection region, so we have insufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.
Therefore, we conclude that the actual percentage of readers who own a particular make of car is same as reported percentage and the executive's claim that it is different is not supported.

Box 4: Select the best answer
Answer:
1. H0 : p = 0.9
H1 : p ≠ 0.9
2. The test is two tailed.
3. Reject the null hypothesis
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that we have to test the claim that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 90% at the 0.1 significance level.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p = 0.90
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_1[/tex] : p [tex]\neq[/tex] 0.9
Here, the test is two tailed because we have given that to test the claim that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 90% which means it can be less than 0.90 or more than 0.90.
Now, test statistics is given by;
[tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1) , where, n = sample size = 100
[tex]\hat p[/tex] = 0.94 (given)
So, Test statistics = [tex]\frac{0.94-0.90}{\sqrt{\frac{0.94(1-0.94)}{100} } }[/tex] = 1.68
Now, P-value = P(Z > 1.68) = 1 - P(Z <= 1.68)
= 1 - 0.95352 = 0.0465 ≈ 0.05 or 5%
Now, our decision rule is that;
If p-value < significance level ⇒ Reject null hypothesis
If p-value > significance level ⇒ Accept null hypothesis
Since, here p-value is less than significance level as 0.05 < 0.1, so we have sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.
Therefore, we conclude that proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 90%.

There are 700 entertainment documents in the dataset and 300 education documents in the dataset. The tables below give the number of documents from each topic that a selection of words occurred in. Word-document counts for the entertainment dataset fun christmas is 695 machine 35 family 400 learning 70 415 Word-document counts for the education dataset is christmas fun 200 machine 120 family 10 learning 105 295a. What target level will a naive Bayes model predict for the following query document: "machine learning is fun"? b. What target level will a naive Bayes model predict for the following query document: "christmas family fun"? c. What target level will a naive Bayes model predict for the query document in part (b) of this question, if Laplace smoothing with k = 10 and a vocabulary size of 6 is used?
Answer:
Please find attached answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Naive Bayes model is likely to classify the document 'machine learning is fun' and 'christmas family fun' as 'entertainment', even when using Laplace smoothing.
Explanation:The Naive Bayes model classifies texts based upon the likelihood of a particular term belonging to a given class. To find the target level for the document, you multiply the prior probability of the document being in a given class (either entertainment or education) with the likelihoods of the terms in the query document being in that class and you choose the class with the highest probability.
For the query document "machine learning is fun": Given the word-document counts, the model would predict 'entertainment' due to the higher frequency of 'fun' and 'machine' in entertainment documents than in education documents.For the query document "christmas family fun": The model would probably predict 'entertainment' due to the higher frequency of 'fun' and 'family' in the entertainment dataset than in the education dataset.If Laplace smoothing with k = 10 and a vocabulary size of 6 is used, the model would still predict 'entertainment' for "christmas family fun", as adjusting for unseen words in this way will not change the relative probabilities significantly.Learn more about Naive Bayes model here:https://brainly.com/question/21507963

An observation from a normally distributed population is considered "unusual" if it is more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean. There are several contaminants that can harm a city's water supply. Nitrate concentrations above 10 ppm (parts per million) are considered a health risk for infants less than six month of age. The City of Rexburg reports that the nitrate concentration in the city's drinking water supply is between 1.59 and 2.52 ppm (parts per million,) and values outside of this range are unusual. We will assume 1.59 ppm is the value of mu - 2 sigma and mu + 2 sigma is equal to 2.52 ppm. It is reasonable to assume the measured nitrate concentration is normally distributed.
(Source: City of Rexburg)
Use this information to answer questions 20 and 22.
20. Estimate the mean of the measured nitrate concentration in Rexburg's drinking water. (Round your answer to three decimal places)
21. Estimate the standard deviation of the measured nitrate concentration in Rexburg's drinking water. (Round your answer to three decimal places)
22. Between what two measured nitrate concentrations do approximately 68% of the data values lie?

B.1.357 and 2.753 ppm
C.1.823 and 2.288 ppm
D.1.590 and 2.520 ppm
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
X: nitrate concentration in the city's drinking water supply.
X~N(μ;δ²)
A concentration above 10 ppm is a health risk for infants less than 6 months old.
The reported nitrate concentration is between 1.59 and 2.52 ppm, values outside this range are considered unusual.
If any value of a normal distribution that is μ ± 2δ is considered unusual, it is determined that:
μ - 2δ= 1.59
μ + 2δ= 2.52
20) and 21)
I'll clear the values of the mean and the standard deviation using the given information:
a) μ - 2δ= 1.59 ⇒ μ = 1.59 + 2δ
b) μ + 2δ= 2.52 ⇒ Replace the value of Mu from "a" in "b" and clear the standard deviation:
(1.59 + 2δ) + 2δ= 2.52
1.59 + 4δ= 2.52
4δ= 2.52 - 1.59
δ= 0.93/4
δ= 0.2325
Then the value of the mean is μ = 1.59 + 2(0.2325)
μ = 1.59 + 0.465
μ = 2.055
22)
Acording to the empirical rule, 68% of a normal distribution is between μ±δ
Then you can expect 68% of the distribution between:
μ-δ= 2.055-0.2325= 1.8225
μ+δ= 2.055+0.2325= 2.2875
Correct option: C. 1.823 and 2.288 ppm
I hope it helps!
3.3.1. An urn contains five balls numbered 1 to 5. Two balls are drawn simultaneously. (a) Let X be the larger of the two numbers drawn. Find pX (k). (b) Let V be the sum of the two numbers drawn. Find pV (k).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that an urn contains five balls numbered 1 to 5
Two balls are drawn simultaneously.
a) X = the larger of two numbers drawn
Assuming balls are drawn without replacement, (since simultaneously drawn)
the sample space would be (1,2) (1,3)(1,4)(1,5) (2,3)(2,4)(2,5) (3,4) (3,5) (4,5)
n(S) = 10
n(x=2) = 1,
n(x=3) =2
n(x=4) = 3
n(x=5) = 4
Larger value X can take values only as 2,3,4 or 5
X 2 3 4 5
p 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4
-------------------------------------------
b) V = sum of numbers drawn
V can take values as 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9
V 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
p 0.1 0.1 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.1 0.1
The probability that the larger number drawn will be k follows a specific probability distribution, as does the sum of the two numbers drawn. Using the given information and principles of probability, we can determine the probabilities for each value of k for both X and V. For X, the probability distribution pX(k) is [1/5, 1/5, 3/10, 1/5, 1/5]. For V, the probability distribution pV(k) is [1/20, 1/10, 3/20, 1/10, 1/10, 1/10, 3/20, 1/10, 1/20].
(a) Let's consider each possible outcome to find pX(k), the probability that the larger number drawn will be k:
If k is 1, there is only one possible outcome: drawing (1, anything). The probability of this outcome is (1/5) * (4/4) = 1/5.
If k is 2, there are two possible outcomes: drawing (2, 1) or (2, 3). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/10 + 1/10 = 1/5.
If k is 3, there are three possible outcomes: drawing (3, 1), (3, 2), or (3, 4). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (2/4) = 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 = 3/10.
If k is 4, there are four possible outcomes: drawing (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), or (4, 5). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (3/4) = 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 + 3/20 = 1/5.
If k is 5, there are five possible outcomes: drawing (5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), or (5, 5). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (4/4) = 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/5 = 1/5.
Therefore, the probability distribution pX(k) is:
pX(1) = 1/5
pX(2) = 1/5
pX(3) = 3/10
pX(4) = 1/5
pX(5) = 1/5
(b) Let's consider each possible outcome to find pV(k), the probability that the sum of the two numbers drawn will be k:
If k is 2, there is only one possible outcome: drawing (1, 1). The probability of this outcome is (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20.
If k is 3, there are two possible outcomes: drawing (1, 2) or (2, 1). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 = 1/10.
If k is 4, there are three possible outcomes: drawing (1, 3), (2, 2), or (3, 1). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 = 3/20.
If k is 5, there are four possible outcomes: drawing (1, 4), (2, 3), (3, 2), or (4, 1). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 = 1/10.
If k is 6, there are five possible outcomes: drawing (1, 5), (2, 4), (3, 3), (4, 2), or (5, 1). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 = 1/10.
If k is 7, there are four possible outcomes: drawing (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), or (5, 2). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 = 1/10.
If k is 8, there are three possible outcomes: drawing (3, 5), (4, 4), or (5, 3). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20 = 3/20.
If k is 9, there are two possible outcomes: drawing (4, 5) or (5, 4). The probability of these outcomes is (1/5) * (1/4) + (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20 + 1/20 = 1/10.
If k is 10, there is only one possible outcome: drawing (5, 5). The probability of this outcome is (1/5) * (1/4) = 1/20.
Therefore, the probability distribution pV(k) is:
pV(2) = 1/20
pV(3) = 1/10
pV(4) = 3/20
pV(5) = 1/10
pV(6) = 1/10

pV(8) = 3/20
pV(9) = 1/10

The area of a rectangle is 18 square inches. The length of the rectangle is twice its width. Find the width of the rectangle (in inches).
Let the width = X
Then the length would be 2X ( twice the width).
Area is Length x width, so you have X * 2X = 18
x *2x = 2x^2
Now you have 2x^2 = 18
Divide both sides by 2:
x^2 = 9
Take the square root of both sides:
x = sqrt(9)
x = 3
The width is 3 inches.
The width of the rectangle is determined by establishing an equation from the given area (18 square inches) and the fact that the length is twice the width, which leads to the solution that the width is 3 inches.
Explanation:To find the width of a rectangle when the area is 18 square inches, and the length is twice the width, we need to set up an equation. Let the width be w inches. Then the length would be 2w inches, since it's twice the width. We know that the area (A) of a rectangle is the multiplication of its length and width, so we have:
A = length imes width
18 = 2w imes w
18 = 2w2
Now we solve for w:
w2 = 18 / 2
w2 = 9
w = 3
The width of the rectangle is 3 inches.

Consider randomly selecting a single individual and having that person test drive 3 different vehicles.
Define events A1, A2, and A3 by A1 = likes vehicle #1 A2 = likes vehicle #2 A3 = likes vehicle #3. Suppose that P(A1) = 0.55, P(A2) = 0.65, P(A3) = 0.70, P(A1 ∪ A2) = 0.80, P(A2 ∩ A3) = 0.50, and P(A1 ∪ A2 ∪ A3) = 0.88.
(a) What is the probability that the individual likes both vehicle #1
and vehicle #2?
(b) Determine and interpret P (A2 |A3 ).
(c) Are A2 and A3 independent events? Answer in two different ways.
(d) If you learn that the individual did not like vehicle #1, what now
is the probability that he/she liked at least one of the other two
vehicles?
Answer:
(a) The probability that the individual likes both vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 is 0.40.
(b) The value of P (A₂ | A₃) is 0.7143.
(c) The events A₂ and A₃ are not independent.
(d) The probability that an individual likes at least one of A₂ and A₃ given they did not like A₁ is 0.7333.
Step-by-step explanation:
The events are defined as follows:
A₁ = an individual like vehicle #1
A₂ = an individual like vehicle #2
A₃ = an individual like vehicle #3
The information provided is:
[tex]P(A_{1})=0.55\\P(A_{2})=0.65\\P(A_{3})=0.70\\P(A_{1}\cup A_{2})=0.80\\P(A_{2}\cap A_{3})=0.50\\P(A_{1}\cup A_{2}\cip A_{3})=0.88\\[/tex]
(a)
Compute the probability that the individual likes both vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 as follows:
[tex]P(A_{1}\cap A_{2})=P(A_{1})+P(A_{2})-P(A_{1}\cup A_{2})\\=0.55+0.65-0.80\\=0.40[/tex]
Thus, the probability that the individual likes both vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 is 0.40.
(b)
Compute the value of P (A₂ | A₃) as follows:
[tex]P(A_{2}|A_{3})=\frac{P(A_{2}\cap A_{3})}{P(A_{3}}\\=\frac{0.50}{0.70}\\=0.7143[/tex]
Thus, the value of P (A₂ | A₃) is 0.7143.
(c)
If two events X and Y are independent then,
[tex]P(X\cap Y)=P(X)\times P(Y)\\P(X|Y)=P(X)[/tex]
The value of P (A₂ ∩ A₃) is 0.50.
The product of the probabilities, P (A₂) and P (A₃) is:
[tex]P(A_{2})\times P(A_{3})=0.65\times0.70=0.455[/tex]
Thus, P (A₂ ∩ A₃) ≠ P (A₂) × P (A₃)
The value of P (A₂ | A₃) is 0.7143.
The value of P (A₂) is 0.65.
Thus, P (A₂ | A₃) ≠ P (A₂).
The events A₂ and A₃ are not independent.
(d)
Compute that probability that an individual likes at least one of A₂ and A₃ given they did not like A₁ as follows:
[tex]P(A_{2}\cup A_{3}|A_{1}^{c})=\frac{P((A_{2}\cup A_{3})\cap A_{1}^{c})}{P(A_{1}^{c})}\\=\frac{P((A_{2}\cup A_{3}\cup A_{1})-P(A_{1})}{1-P(A_{1})} \\=\frac{0.88-0.55}{1-0.55}\\=0.7333[/tex]
Thus, the probability that an individual likes at least one of A₂ and A₃ given they did not like A₁ is 0.7333.
Final answer:
The probability that the individual likes both vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 is 0.40. Events A2 and A3 are not independent as P(A2 and A3) does not equal P(A2)P(A3). If the individual did not like vehicle #1, the probability of liking at least one of the other two vehicles is 0.73.
Explanation:
Probability of Likes and Independency of Events
To find the probability that the individual likes both vehicle #1 and vehicle #2, which is P(A1 ∩ A2), we use the formula: P(A1 ∩ A2) = P(A1) + P(A2) - P(A1 ∪ A2). Given that P(A1) = 0.55, P(A2) = 0.65, and P(A1 ∪ A2) = 0.80, we can calculate P(A1 ∩ A2):
P(A1 ∩ A2) = 0.55 + 0.65 - 0.80 = 0.40.
The conditional probability P(A2|A3) represents the probability of liking vehicle #2 given that the individual already likes vehicle #3. Using the definition of conditional probability:
P(A2|A3) = P(A2 ∩ A3) / P(A3) = 0.50 / 0.70 = approximately 0.714.
To determine if A2 and A3 are independent events, we can check if P(A2 ∩ A3) equals P(A2)P(A3) which would be 0.65 * 0.70 = 0.455. Since P(A2 ∩ A3) = 0.50, which is not equal to 0.455, A2 and A3 are not independent.
Moreover, if A2 and A3 were independent, then knowing that A3 occurred would not change the probability of A2 happening. However, P(A2|A3) is not equal to P(A2), indicating their dependence. Lastly, when the individual did not like vehicle #1, the probability that they liked at least one of the other two vehicles can be found using the probability of the union of events, subtracting the probability of liking vehicle #1:
P(A2 ∪ A3 | not A1) = P(A2 ∪ A3) - P(A1) + P(A1 ∩ A2 ∩ A3) = 0.88 - 0.55 + 0.40 = 0.73.
When two standard dice are thrown, what is the probability that the sum of the dots on the two top faces will be 3? Express your answer using three significant digits.
The probability that the sum of the dots on two dice will be 3 is 0.056, determined by finding the number of favorable outcomes (2) and dividing by the total number of outcomes (36).
Explanation:The subject of this question is probability, specifically focusing on an experiment involving the tossing of two six-sided dice. To find the probability that the sum of the dots on the two top faces will be 3, we first need to determine the total number of possible outcomes when two dice are thrown. For one six-sided die, there are 6 possible outcomes. Therefore, when two dice are thrown, the total number of outcomes is 6 * 6 = 36.
Next, we need to find the number of outcomes where the sum of the dots would be 3. Looking at our dice, we can see that this can only happen in two ways: getting a 1 on the first die and a 2 on the second, or getting a 2 on the first die and a 1 on the second.
So, the number of favorable outcomes is 2.
Probability is defined as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes. Hence, the probability of the sum of the dots being 3 when two dice are thrown is 2/36. To get this in three significant figures, we divide 2 by 36 which gives the decimal 0.0556. Therefore, the probability to three significant figures is 0.056.

Big chickens: The weights of broilers (commercially raised chickens) are approximately normally distributed with mean 1511 grams and standard deviation 198 grams. Use the TI-84 Plus calculator to answer the following. (a) What proportion of broilers weigh between 1143 and 1242 grams?
Answer:
5.55% of broilers weigh between 1143 and 1242 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 1511, \sigma = 198[/tex]
What proportion of broilers weigh between 1143 and 1242 grams?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 1242 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1143.
X = 1242
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{1242 - 1511}{198}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.36[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.36[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0869
X = 1143
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{1143 - 1511}{198}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.36[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.86[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0314
0.0869 - 0.0314 = 0.0555
5.55% of broilers weigh between 1143 and 1242 grams
Suppose 10000 people are given a medical test for a disease. About1% of all people have this condition. The test results have a 15% false positive rate and a 10% false negative rate. What percent of the people who tested positive actually have the disease?
Answer:
The percent of the people who tested positive actually have the disease is 38.64%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the events as follows:
X = a person has the disease
P = the test result is positive
N = the test result is negative
Given:
[tex]P(X)=0.01\\P(P|X^{c})=0.15\\P(N|X)=0.10[/tex]
Compute the value of P (P|X) as follows:
[tex]P(P|X)=1-P(P|X^{c})=1-0.15=0.85[/tex]
Compute the probability of a positive test result as follows:
[tex]P(P)=P(P|X)P(X)+P(P|X^{c})P(X^{c})\\=(0.85\times0.10)+(0.15\times0.90)\\=0.22[/tex]
Compute the probability of a person having the disease given that he/she was tested positive as follows:
[tex]P(X|P)=\frac{P(P|X)P(X)}{P(P)}=\frac{0.85\times0.10}{0.22} =0.3864[/tex]
The percentage of people having the disease given that he/she was tested positive is, 0.3864 × 100 = 38.64%.

Fewer than 75% of claims settled within two months of filing.
b) Calculate the test statistic.
Test statistic = percent of claims settled in two months = 23/35 = 65.7%

In a study of cereal leaf beetle damage to oats, researchers measured the number of beetle larvae per stem in small plots of oats after applying (or not applying) the pesticide Malathion . Researchers applied Malathion to a random sample of 5 plots, and did not apply the pesticide to an independent sample of 12 plots. A noted scientist claims that Malathion will not make any difference in the mean number of larvae per stem. Test her claim at the .05 level of significance. State H0 and H1. a. H0: Mean Malathion -MeanNoMalathion <= 0 H1: Mean Malathion-Mean Malathion > 0 b. H0: MeanMalathion -MeanNoMalathion >= 0 H1: MeanMalathion-MeanNoMalathion < 0 c. H0: MeanMalathion = MeanNoMalathion H1: MeanMalathion ≠ MeanNoMalathion d. H0: MeanMalathion-MeanNoMalathion = 0 H1: MeanMalathion-MeanNoMalathion ≠ 0
Answer:
At 0.05 level of significance, there is no difference in the mean number of larvae per stem. This supports the scientist's claim.
(d) H0: MeanMalathion - MeanNoMalathion equals 0
H1: MeanMalathion - MeanNoMalathion not equals 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Test statistic (t) = (mean 1 - mean 2) ÷ sqrt[pooled variance (1/n1 + 1/n2)]
Let the difference between the two means be x and the pooled variance be y
n1 = 5, n2 = 12
t = x ÷ sqrt[y(1/5 + 1/12)] = x ÷ sqrt(0.283y) = x ÷ 0.532√y = 1.88x/√y
Assuming the ratio of x to √y is 0.5
t = 1.88×0.5 = 0.94
n1 + n2 = 5 + 12 = 17
degree of freedom = n1 + n2 - 2 = 17 - 2 = 15
significance level = 0.05 = 5%
critical value corresponding to 15 degrees of freedom and 5% confidence interval is 2.131
The test is a two-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is expressed using not equal to.
The region of no rejection of the null hypothesis lies between -2.131 and 2.131
Conclusion
Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic 0.94 falls within the region bounded by the critical values.
The scientist's claim is right.
A null hypothesis is a statement from a population parameter which is either rejected or accepted (fail to reject) upon testing. It is expressed using the equality sign.
An alternate hypothesis is also a statement from a population parameter which negates the null hypothesis and is accepted if the null hypothesis is rejected. It is expressed using any of the inequality signs.
New York City is the most expensive city in the United States for lodging. The mean hotel room rate is $204 per night. Assume that room rates are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $55. What is the minimum cost that captures the 20% most expensive hotel rooms in New York City?
Answer:
[tex]z=0.842<\frac{a-204}{55}[/tex]
And if we solve for a we got
[tex]a=204 +0.842*55=250.31[/tex]
So the value of height that separates the bottom 80% of data from the top 20% is 250.31.
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the room hotel rate of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
[tex]X \sim N(204,55)[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu=204[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=55[/tex]
For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:
[tex]P(X>a)=0.20[/tex] (a)
[tex]P(X<a)=0.80[/tex] (b)
Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.
As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.80 of the area on the left and 0.20 of the area on the right it's z=0.842. On this case P(Z<0.842)=0.8 and P(z>0.842)=0.2
If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:
[tex]P(X<a)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.842[/tex]
[tex]P(z<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.842[/tex]
But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:
[tex]z=0.842<\frac{a-204}{55}[/tex]
And if we solve for a we got
[tex]a=204 +0.842*55=250.31[/tex]
So the value of height that separates the bottom 80% of data from the top 20% is 250.31.

By trial and error, -2, ⅓, and 2 are all roots. The fourth root can't be imaginary (complex roots come in pairs), so one of the real roots must be repeated.
Answer: the factors are (x - 2)(x + 2)(3x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial function is expressed as
f(x) = 3x⁴ - 7x³ - 10x² + 28x - 8
The first step is to test for any value of x that satisfies the polynomial when
3x⁴ - 7x³ - 10x² + 28x - 8 = 0
Assuming x = 2, then
3(2)⁴ - 7(2)³ - 10(2)² + 28 × 2 - 8 = 0
48 - 56 - 40 + 56 - 8 = 0
0 = 0
It means that x - 2 is a factor.
To determine the other factors, we would apply the long division method. The steps are shown in the attached photo. Looking at the photo, we would factorize the quadratic equation which is expressed as
3x² + 5x - 2 = 0
3x² + 6x - x - 2 = 0
3x(x + 2) - 1(x + 2)
(3x - 1)(x + 2) = 0
A recent survey of 1010 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 627 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige. Estimate the probability (to the nearest hundredth) that a U.S. adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige.
Answer:
0.62 = 62% probability that a U.S. adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Desired outcomes:
Adults who consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige. So the number of desired outcomes is [tex]D = 627[/tex]
Total outcomes.
All adults sampled. So [tex]T = 1010[/tex]
Probability:
[tex]P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{627}{1010} = 0.62[/tex]
0.62 = 62% probability that a U.S. adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige.
Is (2,7) a point on the line y=4x-3?
Given that the equation of the line is [tex]y=4x-3[/tex]
We need to determine the point (2,7) lies on the line.
For a point to lie on the line, substituting the point in the equation of the line makes it valid.
Thus, substituting the point (2,7) in the equation of the line [tex]y=4x-3[/tex], we get;
[tex]7=4(2)-3[/tex]
[tex]7=8-3[/tex]
[tex]7\neq 5[/tex]
Thus, the both sides of the equation are not equal.
Substituting the point (2,7) in the equation makes the equation invalid.
Thus, the point (2,7) does not lie on the line [tex]y=4x-3[/tex]

The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is an annual tradition in Lexington, Massachusetts. A group of volunteers counts the number of birds of different species over a 1-day period. Each year, there are approximately 30–35 hours of observation time split among multiple volunteers. The following counts were obtained for the Northern Cardinal (or cardinal, in brief) for the period 2005–2011.
Year Number
2005 76
2006 47
2007 63
2008 53
2009 62
2010 69
2011 62
5.126 What is the mean number of cardinal birds per year observed from 2005 to 2011?
5.127 What is the standard deviation (sd) of the number of cardinal birds observed?
5.128 What is the probability of observing at least 60 cardinal birds in 2012? (Hint: Apply a continuity correction where appropriate.)
The observers wish to identify a normal range for the number of cardinal birds observed per year. The normal range will be defined as the interval (L, U), where L is the largest integer ≤ 15th percentile and U is the smallest integer ≥ 85th percentile.
5.129 If we make the same assumptions as in Problem 5.128, then what is L? What is U?
5.130 What is the probability that the number of cardinal birds will be ≥ U at least once on Christmas day during the 10-year period 2012–2021? (Hint: Make the same assumptions as in Problem 5.128.)
Answer:
(5.216) mean = 61.71
(5.217) standard deviation = 8.88
(5.218) P(X>=60) = 0.9238
(5.129) L = 79, U = 69
(5.130) P(X> or = U) = 0.7058
Step-by-step explanation:
The table of the statistic is set up as shown in attachment.
(5.216) mean = summation of all X ÷ no of data.
mean = 432/7 = 61.71 birds
(5.217)Standard deviation = √ sum of the absolute value of difference of X from mean ÷ number of data
S = √ /X - mean/ ÷ 7
= √551.428/7
S = 8.88
(5.218) P (X> or = 60)
= P(Z> or =60 - 61.71/8.8 )
= P(Z>or= - 0.192)
= 1 - P(Z< or = 0.192)
= 1- 0.0762
= 0.9238
(5.219)the 15th percentile=15/100 × 7
15th percentile = 1.05
The value is the number in the first position and that is 79,
L= 79
85th percentile = 85/100 × 7 = 5.95
The value is the number in the 6th position, and that is 69
U = 69
5.130) P(X>or = 60)
= P(Z>or= 69 - 61.71/8.8)
= P(Z> or = 0.8208)
= 1 - P(Z< or = 0.8209)
= 1 - 0.2942
= 0.7058
