Suppose that the probability of a drought in any independent year is 20%. Out of those years in which a drought occurs, the probability of water rationing is ten percent. However, in any year, the probability of water rationing is five percent.
Which of the following is true?
a. 0.01
b. 0.05
c. 0.30
d. 0.02

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the correct option is d. 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following events:

x: A drought occurd

y: Water rationing.

Therefore, according to the plaster we have:

P [x] = 0.20

P [y | x] = 0.10

Now P [it is a drought and water rationing happens] =

P [x n y] = P [y | x] * P [x] = 0.10 * 0.20 = 0.02

Which means that the correct option is d. 0.02

Burnwood Tech plans to issue some $50 par preferred stock with a 8% dividend. A similar stock is selling on the market for $65. Burnwood must pay flotation costs of 6% of the issue price. What is the cost of the preferred stock? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

6.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formular used to calculate the cost of preferred stock is:

= Fixed dividend/Net proceeds

Fixed dividend= $50 × 8/100

= $50×0.08

=$4

Net proceeds= Market price-Flotation costs

= $65-(6/100×$65)

= $65-(0.06×$65)

= $65-3.9

= $61.1

Therefore cost of preferred stock is

= 4/61.1 ×100

= 0.065×100

= 6.5%

Hence the cost of preferred stock is 6.5%

64 less than y is no less than −128 Written in interval notation

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y\in [-64,\infty)[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statement is "64 less than y is no less than −128". It means 64 less than y is greater than or equal to −128.

[tex]y-64\geq -128[/tex]

Add 64 both sides.

[tex]y-64+64\geq -128+64[/tex]

[tex]y\geq -64[/tex]

It means possible value of y is greater than or equal to -64.

[tex]y\in [-64,\infty)[/tex]

Twenty percent of adults in a particular community have at least a​ bachelor's degree. Suppose x is a binomial random variable that counts the number of adults with at least a​ bachelor's degree in a random sample of 100 adults from the community. If you are using a calculator with the binompdf and binomcdf​ commands, which of the following is the most efficient way to calculate the probability that more than 60 adults have a​ bachelor's degree, ​P(x?>60)?

a. P(x < 60)=binompdf(100,0 20,59)
b. P(x<60)=binompdf(100.0.20.60)
c. P(x<60)= binomcdf(100,0,20,59)
d. P(x<60)=binomcdf (100.0.20.60)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x is a binomial random variable that counts the number of adults with at least a bachelor's degree, it means that there are only two outcome. It is either an adult has a bachelor's degree or not. The probability of success would be that the adult has a bachelor's degree. Therefore, probability of success, p = 20/100 = 0.2

Number of adults in the sample is 100

The number of success expected is x

We want to determine the probability of P(x ≥ 60)

Therefore, the most efficient way to calculate the probability that more than 60 adults have a bachelor's degree is

b. P(x<60)=binompdf(100.0.20.60)

This is because it is a discrete probability distribution function

The director of the IRS has been flooded with complaints that people must wait more than 40 minutes before seeing an IRS representative. To determine the validity of these complaints, the IRS randomly selects 400 people entering IRS offices across the country and records the times which they must wait before seeing an IRS representative. The average waiting time for the sample is 60 minutes with a standard deviation of 22 minutes.

(a) Is there overwhelming evidence to support the claim that the wait time to see an IRS representative is more than 40 minutes at a 0.100 significance level?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t=\frac{60-40}{\frac{22}{\sqrt{400}}}=18.18[/tex]    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex]df=n-1=400-1=399[/tex]  

The p value for this case would be given by:

[tex]p_v =P(t_{(399)}>18.18) \approx 0[/tex]  

For this case since the p value is a very low value we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean for this case is significantly higher than 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

[tex]\bar X=60[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]s=22[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation

[tex]n=400[/tex] sample size  

[tex]\mu_o =40[/tex] represent the value to verify

[tex]\alpha=0.1[/tex] represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to verify if the true mean for this case is higher than 40 minutes, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu \leq 40[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu > 40[/tex]  

The statistic would be given by:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]  (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

[tex]t=\frac{60-40}{\frac{22}{\sqrt{400}}}=18.18[/tex]    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex]df=n-1=400-1=399[/tex]  

The p value for this case would be given by:

[tex]p_v =P(t_{(399)}>18.18) \approx 0[/tex]  

For this case since the p value is a very low value we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean for this case is significantly higher than 40 minutes

On a snow day, Brooklyn created two snowmen in her backyard. Snowman A was built to a height of 60 inches and Snowman B was built to a height of 44 inches. The next day, the temperature increased and both snowmen began to melt. At sunrise, Snowman A's height decrease by 5 inches per hour and Snowman B's height decreased by 3 inches per hour. Let A(t)A(t) represent the height of Snowman A tt hours after sunrise and let B(t)B(t) represent the height of Snowman B tt hours after sunrise. Write the equation for each function and determine the number of hours after sunrise when both snowmen have an equal height.

Answers

Answer: it will take 9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate at which the height of each snowman decreased is linear. This means that it was decreasing in arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic progression is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference

n represents the number of terms(hours)

Considering snowman A,

Tn = A(t)

n = t

a = 60 inches

d = - 5 inches(since it is decreasing)

Therefore,

A(t) = 60 + (t - 1)-5

A(t) = 60 - 5t + 5

A(t) = 65 - 5t

Considering snowman B,

Tn = B(t)

n = t

a = 44 inches

d = - 3 inches(since it is decreasing)

Therefore,

B(t) = 44 + (t - 1)-3

B(t) = 44 - 3t + 3

B(t) = 47 - 3t

For both snowmen to have an equal height, it means that

65 - 5t = 47 - 3t

- 5t + 3t = 47 - 65

- 2t = - 18

t = - 18/- 2

t = 9 hours

"Rebecca walks 100 feet in a straight line. She then turns 20 degrees to her left and walks another 100 feet, and then turns 20 degrees to her left again. She continues this pattern until she reaches the point where she started. How far did she walk

Step-by-step explanation:

Rebecca will walk in the pattern of a regular polygon with 'n' sides and internal angles of 160 degrees (180 at a straight line - 20 degrees from each turn).

The equation that describes the internal angle of a regular polygon is:

[tex]A = \frac{(n-2)*180}{n}[/tex]

For A = 160 degrees:

a village is 20 miles away from Belfast. Connor drives from the village to Belfast at an average speed of 40mph. Kelly drives from the village to Belfast at an average speed of 50mph. How much longer will the journey take Connor in minutes?.

Answers

Answer:

6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Connor drives from the village to Belfast at an average speed of 40mph.

The distance covered is 20 miles.

Time = distance/ speed

Time = 20/40

Time = 0.5 hours

Time = 30 minutes.

Kelly drives from the village to Belfast at an average speed of 50mph.

Time = distance/speed

Time = 20/50

Time = 0.4 hours

Time = 24 minutes

It will take Conor 30 - 24 = 6 minutes longer than Kelly

A cone and a cylinder have the same base and height, as shown below. A cone is inside of a cylinder with same base and height. The volume of the cylinder is 84 pi inches squared What can be concluded about the volume of the cone? Check all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the cone = 28 inch³

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's consider the formula for the volume of the shapes

For cylinder

Volume= πr²h

For cone

Volume= 1/3 πr²h

So we'd notice that no much difference except that the volume if a cylinder is divided by two to get that off a cone.

So if the volume of the cylinder is

84π inch

The volume of the cone is 84/3 = 28

The volume of the cone = 28 inch³
