An urn contains three white and four red chips. Each time we draw a chip, we look at its color. If it is red, we replace it along with two new red chips, and if it is white, we replace it along with three new white chips. What is the probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the rst four chips alternate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the first four chips alternate = 0.0751

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the first four chips alternate, can occur in two ways: RED-WHITE-RED-WHITE (RWRW) or WHITE-RED-WHITE-RED (WRWR).

Step 2:

Given that an urn contains three white and four red chips and that each time we draw a chip, we look at its color. If it is red, we replace it along with two new red chips, and if it is white, we replace it along with three new white chips.

Probability of RWRW is given as follows:

Probabilty of the first being a red = 4/7

Probability of the next being a white = 3/9 = 1/3

Probability of the next being a red = 6/12 = 1/2

Probability of the next being a white = 6/14 = 3/7

Thus, probability of RWRW = 4/7 × 1/3 × 1/2 × 3/7 = 0.0408

Probability of WRWR is given as follows:

Probabilty of the first being a white = 3/7

Probability of the next being a white = 4/10 =2/5

Probability of the next being a red = 6/12 = 1/2

Probability of the next being a white = 6/15 = 2/5

Thus, probability of WRWR = 3/7 × 2/5 × 1/2 × 2/5 = 0.0343

Step 3:

Probability of RWRW or WRWR = 0.0408 + 0.0343 = 0.0751

Therefore, the probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the first four chips alternate = 0.0751

A local police chief claims that about 51% of all drug related arrests are ever prosecuted. A sample of 900 arrests shows that 47% of the arrests were prosecuted. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to refute the chief's claim? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

Answers

Answer:

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: p = 0.51[/tex].

The alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_1: p \neq 0.51[/tex].

The p-value of the test is 0.0164 > 0.01, which means that there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to refute the chief's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

A local police chief claims that about 51% of all drug related arrests are ever prosecuted

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 51%, that is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.51[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the proportion is different from 51%, that is:

[tex]H_1: p \neq 0.51[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.51 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.51, \sigma = \sqrt{0.51*0.49}[/tex]

A sample of 900 arrests shows that 47% of the arrests were prosecuted.

This means that [tex]n = 900, X = 0.47[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.47 - 0.51}{\frac{\sqrt{0.51*0.49}}{\sqrt{900}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.4[/tex]

P-value of the test:

Probability that the sample proportion differs from 0.51 by at least 0.04, which is P(|z|>2.4), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -2.4.

Looking at the z-table, the Z = -2.4 has a p-value of 0.0082.

2*0.0082 = 0.0164.

The p-value of the test is 0.0164 > 0.01, which means that there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to refute the chief's claim.

The area of a rectangle is 28 m', and the length of the rectangle is 1 m more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

8m ×3.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= length ×width

Let the length and width of the rectangle be L and W meters respectively.

Area of rectangle= LW

LW= 28 -----(1)

L= 2W +1 -----(2)

Subst. (2) into (1):

(2W +1)(W)= 28

Expand:

2W² +W= 28

-28 on both sides:

2W² +W -28= 0

Factorise:

(W +4)(2W -7)= 0

W +4=0 or 2W -7=0

W= -4 (reject) or W= 3.5

Substitute W= 3.5 into (2):

L= 2(3.5) +1

L= 7 +1

L= 8

∴ The dimensions of the rectangle is 8m ×3.5m.

Solve the inequality and write the solution set using both set-builder notation and interval notation. -3a-15≤-2a+6

Answers

Answer:

Set builder notation: {a | a ≥ -21}

Interval notation: [-21, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

A set represents a collection of things, objects, or numbers. A set builder notation is in the form y = {x | x is an odd number between 8 and 10}, which means y contains all the odd numbers between 8 and 10.

Interval notation is a way to define a set of numbers between a lower limit and an upper limit using end-point values. for example (8, 20) means numbers between 8 and 20.

Given -3a-15≤-2a+6; solving :

-3a - 15 ≤ -2a + 6

-3a + 2a ≤ 6 + 15

-a ≤ 21

dividing through by -1:

a ≥ -21

The solution is:

Set builder notation: {a | a ≥ -21}

Interval notation: [-21, ∞)

Jane needs to buy mulch to cover a circular garden
whose dimensions are shown in the figure. The cost of
the mulch is $32.52 per square yard. Find the amount
of mulch she will need to the nearest square yard and
find the cost of the mulch.

Answers

Answer:

$3089.4

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is a locus of a point such that its distance from a point known as the center is always constant.

The area of a circle is given by the formula:

Area = πr²; where r is the radius of the circle.

From the image attached, we can see that the garden is circular with a radius of 5.5 yard. Hence:

Amount of mulch needed to cover garden = area of garden = πr² = π(5.5)²  = 95 yd²

Since mulch cost $32.52 per square yard, hence:

Cost of mulch needed = $32.52 per yd² * 95 yd² = $3089.4

You roll two fair dice. Find the probability that the first die is a 6 given that the minimum of the two numbers is a 2.

Answers

Answer:

1/9 = 0.1111 = 11.11% probability that the first die is a 6 given that the minimum of the two numbers is a 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

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

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Minimum of the two numbers is 2.

Event B: First die in a 6.

Fair dice:

Each throw has 6 equally likely outcomes. Thus, in total, there are [tex]6^2 = 36[/tex] possible outcomes.

Minimum of the two numbers is a 2.

(2,2), (2,3), (3,2), (2,4), (4,2), (2,5), (5,2), (2,6), (6,2).

9 total outcomes in which the minumum of the two numbers is a two, which means that:

[tex]P(A) = \frac{9}{36}[/tex]

Minimum of the two numbers is a 2, and the first die is a 6.

Only one possible outcome, (6,2). So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{36}[/tex]

Probability that the first die is a 6 given that the minimum of the two numbers is a 2.

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{\frac{1}{36}}{\frac{9}{36}} = \frac{1}{9} 0.1111[/tex]

1/9 = 0.1111 = 11.11% probability that the first die is a 6 given that the minimum of the two numbers is a 2.

Answers

Answer:

0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

For a density curve, total area = 1

Probability lies in between 0 and 1

The Area of rectangle :

Area = Length * width

Length = 0 - 10 = 10

Area = 1

Hence,

Area = Length * width

1 = 10 * w

1 = 10w

w = 1 /10

w = 0.1

These are in the form of y=mx+b

b is the y-intercept and m is the slope

since the y-intercept is 0 b is 0 and isn't need leaving us with y=mx

We can put our slope into the equation giving us the answer in C

The required equation of the line is that passing through the point (3, -1) is y = -x/3.

Given that,
To determine the equation of the line that passes through the origin and a point (3, -1).

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is a tangent angle made by line with horizontal. i.e. m =tanx where x in degrees.

Here,
Since the line passes from the origin and a point (3, -1)
So, the slope of the line is given by,
m = (y₂ - y₁) /  (x₂ - x₁)

Substitute the respective values in the above equation,
m = -1 + 0 / 3 - 0
m = -1/3,
Now the point-slope form of the equation of a line is,

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
Substitute the respective values in the above equation,
y + 1 = -1/3 (x - 3)
y = -x/3

Thus, the required equation of the line is that passing through the point (3, -1) is y = -x/3.

As with any evaluation problem, take it step by step according to the order of operations.

The first thing you need to do here is compute a#b.

The given definition can be simplified a bit for evaluation purposes:

  a#b = a²b -ab² = ab(a -b)

Then for a=3 and b=-2, you have ...

Answers

Answer and explanation:

Multicollinearity happens when multiple independent variables are correlated and therefore it is hard to determine which independent variable has the most impact or is most significantly affecting the dependent variable. This could be a source of confusion as the coefficients become less reliable.

Extreme multicollinearity occurs when there is exaggerated standard errors or increased variance of coefficient estimates.

Suppose x is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 12 and a standard deviation of 3. The probability that x equals 19.62 is _____.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that x equals 19.62 is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In the normal probability distribution, the probability of an exact value, that is, P(X = x) is 0. Thus, the probability that x equals 19.62 is 0
