9. A space probe near Neptune communicates with Earth using bit strings. Suppose that in its transmissions it sends a 1 one-third of the time and a 0 two-thirds of the time. When a 0 is sent, the probability that it is received correctly is 0.9, and the probability that it is received incorrectly (as a 1) is 0.1. When a 1 is sent, the probability that it is received correctly is 0.8, and the probability that it is received incorrectly (as a 0) is 0.2. (a) Find the probability that a 0 is received. (b) Use Bayes theorem to find the probability that a 0 was transmitted, given that a 0 was received.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.6667 = 66.67% probability that a 0 is received.

b) 0.9 = 90% probability that a 0 was transmitted, given that a 0 was received.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

(a) Find the probability that a 0 is received.

0.9 of 2/3(0 received when a 0 is sent).

0.2 of 1/3(0 received when a 1 is sent). So

[tex]p = \frac{0.9*2}{3} + \frac{0.2*1}{3} = 0.6667[/tex]

0.6667 = 66.67% probability that a 0 is received.

(b) Use Bayes theorem to find the probability that a 0 was transmitted, given that a 0 was received.

Event A: 0 received

Event B: 0 transmitted.

0.6667 = 66.67% probability that a 0 is received, which means that [tex]P(A) = 0.6667[/tex]

A zero is transmitted two-thirds of time, which means that [tex]P(B) = 0.6667[/tex]

When a 0 is sent, the probability that it is received correctly is 0.9, which means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.9[/tex]

So

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.6667*0.9}{0.6667} = 0.9[/tex]

0.9 = 90% probability that a 0 was transmitted, given that a 0 was received.

If 50% of a number is 150 and 30% of the same number is 90, find 80% of that number.

Answers

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 50% of the number is 150 so we can assume the number is 300(if its 50% just double that number). Next we use the equation 0.80 x 300 which gives us the answer 240.

Hope I helped

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

50%*x=150

0.5x=150

x= 300

30%*x=90

0.3x= 90

x= 300

80%*300=

0.8*300= 240

One in five 18-year-old Americans has not graduated from high school (The Wall Street Journal, April 19, 2007). A mayor of a northeastern city comments that its residents do not have the same graduation rate as the rest of the country. An analyst from the Department of Education decides to test the mayor's claim. She draws a random sample of 80 18-year-olds in the city and finds that 20 of them have not graduated from high school. Compute the point estimate for the proportion of 18-year-olds who have not graduated from high school in this city. (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The point estimate for the proportion of 18-year-olds who have not graduated from high school in this city is 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate is the sample proportion.

She draws a random sample of 80 18-year-olds in the city and finds that 20 of them have not graduated from high school.

This means that:

[tex]p = \frac{20}{80} = 0.25[/tex]

The point estimate for the proportion of 18-year-olds who have not graduated from high school in this city is 0.25.

Answers

l=7a 7a+a=1080

8a=1080 8a/8=1080/8

ayu=135

l=7a l=7×135

l=945 so:-135+945=1080

Lucy sold 945 iPads and Ayu sold 135 iPads

What is an equation?

"It is a mathematical statement which consists of equal symbol between two algebraic expressions."

For given question,

Let Lucy and Ayu sold 'x' and 'y' iPads respectively.

Lucy and Ayu sold a total of 1,080 iPads.

So, we get an equation,

⇒ x + y = 1080           ...............(i)

Lucy sold 7 times as many as Ayu.

So we get the second equation as,

⇒ x = 7y                     ................(ii)

Substitute above value of x in equation (i)

⇒ x + y = 1080

⇒ 7y + y = 1080

⇒ 8y = 1080

⇒ y = 135

This means, Ayu sold 135 iPads

Substitute above value of y in equation (ii)

⇒ x = 7(135)    

⇒ x = 7 × 135

⇒ x = 945

This means, Lucy sold 945 iPads.

Therefore, Lucy sold 945 iPads and Ayu sold 135 iPads

Step-by-step explanation:

you add the equation together and find the answer

Answer: 4500 and 250 = 4750

Step-by-step explanation: 10 to the power of 3 is 1000 because it’s 10x10x10 and if you multiply it by 4.5 it’s 4500 and then 10 times 10 is 100 times 2.5 is 250. And because we’re looking for the sum it wants the total so 4500 plus 250 is 4750

The length of stay at a specific emergency department in Phoenix, Arizona, in 2009 had a mean of 4.6 hours with a standard deviation of 2.9. Assume that the length of stay is normally distributed.
a. What is the probability of a length of stay greater than 10 hours?
b. What length of stay is exceeded by 25% of the visits?
c. From the normally distributed model, what is the probability of a length of stay less than 0 hours? Comment on the normally distributed assumption in this example.

Answers

Answer:

a) the probability of a length of stay greater than 10 hours is 0.03144

b) the length of stay is exceeded by 25% of the visits is 6.5 hrs

c)

P( X < 0 ) = 0.0559

The probability of length of stay less than 0 hours is 0.0559, length of stay cannot be less than 0. When the normal model is used, we assume that the LOF is approximately normally distributed.

The LOF is better modeled by the normal distribution near the mean and worse in the tails.

The probabilities in the left tail for the vales of X < 0  can be neglected.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

mean μ = 4.6

standard deviation σ = 2.9

let x represent length of stay;

a. What is the probability of a length of stay greater than 10 hours?

p( x > 10 ) = p( x-μ/σ > 10-4.6 / 2.9 )

= p( Z > 1.86)

= P( Z < - 1.86 )

FROM THE Z SCORE TABLE;( Z < - 1.86 ) = 0.03144

p( x > 10 )  = 0.03144

Therefore, the probability of a length of stay greater than 10 hours is 0.03144

b) What length of stay is exceeded by 25% of the visits?

p( X > x ) = 0.25

so

p( X < x ) = 0.75

p( x-μ/σ < x-4.6 / 2.9 ) = 75

p( Z < x-4.6 / 2.9 ) = 0.75 ----- 1

also, from the standard normal table; P( Z < 0.67 ) = 0.75 ------ 11

from equation 1 and 11

x-4.6 / 2.9 = 0.67

x-4.6 = 2.9 × 0.67

x - 4.6 = 1.943

x = 4.6 + 1.943

x = 6.543 ≈ 6.5

Therefore, the length of stay is exceeded by 25% of the visits is 6.5 hrs

c)  From the normally distributed model, what is the probability of a length of stay less than 0 hours?

P( X < 0 ) = p( x-μ/σ < 0-4.6 / 2.9 )

= P( Z - 1.59)

from table;( Z - 1.59) = 0.0559

P( X < 0 ) = 0.0559

The probability of length of stay less than 0 hours is 0.0559, length of stay cannot be less than 0. When the normal model is used, we assume that the LOF is approximately normally distributed.

The LOF is better modeled by the normal distribution near the mean and worse in the tails.

The probabilities in the left tail for the vales of X < 0  can be neglected.
