forty-five percent of the students in a dorm are business majors and fifty-five percent are non-business majors. business majors are twice as likely to do their studying at the library as non-business majors are. half of the business majors study at the library. if a randomly slected student from the dorm studies at the library, what is the probability the student is a business major

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Defining the following events as :

B : Being a Business major

α : Studying at the library

∴ Given that :

[tex]$P(B) = \frac{45}{100}$[/tex]

         = 0.45

Again, P [ Studying at the library | Being a Business major ] = 2 P [ Studying at the library | Being a non business major ]

[tex]$P[ \alpha | B] = 2 P[\alpha | B^C]$[/tex]   .......(1)

Again,

[tex]$P[\text{Studying at the library } | \text{ Being a business major}] = \frac{1}{2} = 0.50$[/tex]

[tex]$P(\alpha | B) = 0.50$[/tex]

From (1), we get

[tex]$P(\alpha | B^C) = \frac{1}{2} . P(\alpha | B)$[/tex]

              [tex]$=\frac{1}{2} \times 0.50$[/tex]

              = 0.25

Therefore, we need,

= P[  The students is a Business major | The student studies at the library ]

[tex]$=P(B | \alpha)$[/tex]

By Bayes theorem

[tex]$=\frac{P(B). P(\alpha | B)}{P(B).P(\alpha | B) + P(B^C). P(\alpha | B^C)}$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{0.45 \times 0.50}{0.45 \times 0.50 + 0.55 \times 0.25}$[/tex]

= 0.6207

We are given a jar full of thousands of red and blue marbles. We want to estimate the unknown proportion pof red marbles in the jar. To do this, we randomly draw 100 marbles and count reds: it so happens we drew 45 reds. Enter values in decimal form, rounded to four decimal places (or more).

Set up an approximate 96% confidence interval for the unknown proportion of reds in the jar.

Answers

Answer:

(0.3478, 0.5522)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of red marbles, x = 45

Total number of marbles, n = 100

Phat = x / n = 45 / 100 = 0.45

The confidence interval, C.I is given by :

Phat ± Zcritical * standard error

Phat ± Zcritical * √Phat(1 - Phat) / n

Zcritical at 96% = 2.0537

The standard error = √Phat(1 - Phat) / n

S.E = √(0.45 * 0.55) / 100 = 0.0497493

C.I = 0.45 ± (2.0537 * 0.0497493)

C.I = 0.45 ± 0.10217013741

C. I = (0.3478, 0.5522)

In a die game, you roll a standard 6-sided die twice. If the second number rolled is the same as the first number rolled, you win $25. Otherwise, you lose $2. If you were to play the game 100 times, how much money can you expect to make

Answers

Answer:

You can expect to make $250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible outcomes:

For the pair of dice:

(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6)

(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6)

(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6)

(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6)

(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6)

(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)

So 36 total outcomes.

Probability of the second number rolled being the same as the first number rolled:

6 outcomes: (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6)

Out of 36, thus:

[tex]p = \frac{6}{36} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Expected value of 1 game:

1/6 probability of earning $25.

5/6 probability of losing $2.

Thus:

[tex]E = 25\frac{1}{6} - 2\frac{5}{6} = \frac{25 - 10}{6} = 2.5[/tex]

100 games:

100*2.5 = 250

You can expect to make $250.

Find the answer for x and y

Answers

Answer:

x = 57

y = 57

Step-by-step explanation:

because of the two parallel lines :

41+y+8+74 = 180 add like terms

y + 123 = 180 subtract 123 from both sides

y = 57

x - 3 + 41 + y + 8 = 180 because they make a straight line

x + y + 46 = 180

x + 57 + 46 = 180

x + 123 = 180 subtract 123 from both sides

x = 57

A campus deli serves 101 customers over its busy lunch period from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. A quick count of the number of customers waiting in line and being served by the sandwich makers shows that an average of 18 customers are in process at any point in time. What is the average amount of time (in minute) that a customer spends in process?

Answers

Answer:

21.38 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

the total number served = 101

teh number of hours that is spent in serving from 11.30 to 1.30 = 2 hours

Lq = average number of those that are in line = 18 customers

from here we are to find the flow rate

= [tex]\frac{total served}{service hour}[/tex]

= 101/2 = 50.5

the average time in waiting =

Lq/flow rate

= 18/50.5

= 0.3564 hours

convert to minutes = 0.3564 * 60 minutes

= 21.38 minutes

Answers

The position of the helicopter and the two VORs forms a triangle and the third angle formed by these three entities is 40 degrees

The diagram is not shown; however, the question can still be answered.

The given angles are:

[tex]\theta_1 = 74.0^o[/tex]

[tex]\theta_2 = 66.0^o[/tex]

Represent the third angle as [tex]\theta_3[/tex]

The helicopter and the 2 VORs form a triangle.

So, we make use of the following theorem to calculate the third angle

[tex]\theta_1 + \theta_2 + \theta_3= 180^o[/tex] ---- sum of angles in a triangle

Substitute known values

[tex]74.0^o + 66.0^o + \theta_3= 180^o[/tex]

[tex]140.0^o + \theta_3= 180^o[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\theta_3= 180 -140.0^o[/tex]

[tex]\theta_3= 40^o[/tex]

Hence, the third angle is 40 degrees.

then,

⇒ [tex]P(X) = \frac{\binom{7}{x} \binom {17}{5-x}}{\binom{24}{5}}[/tex]

(a)

P (all gearboxes fit properly) = [tex]P(x=0)[/tex]

All direct variation equations are of the form y = kx, for some constant k.

We know that y = -8 and x = 4 pair up together. Let's use these two values to find k

y = kx

-8 = k*4

-8/4 = k

-2 = k

k = -2

Therefore, we go from y = kx to y = -2x

We can then find y when x = -4

y = -2x

y = -2*(-4)

y = 8

Answer:

y∝x

y=kx

k=y/x

by putting values

k=-8/4

k= -2

now ,if x= -4

as, y=kx

hence, y= (-2)(-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 2⅔ = 8/3 Km

Time = ⅗ hour

First of all, we would find her speed;

Speed = distance/time

Speed = (8/3)/(3/5)

Speed = 8/3 * 5/3

Speed = 40/9 km/h

Next, we would find the distance covered when time = 1¾ hours

Distance = speed * time

Distance = 40/9 * 1¾

Distance = 40/9 * 7/4

Distance = 10/9 * 7

Distance = 70/9

Distance = 7 7/9 Km
