Question:

To a survey of 290 newspaper readers, 181 of them read the Daily Times, 142 Read the Guardian 117 read punch and each reads at least one of the three papers if 75 read the Daily Times, and the Guardian, 60 read the Daily Times and punch, and 54 read the Guardian and punch : Draw a Venn diagram to illustrate this information How many readers read All three papers ,Exactly two of the papers The Guardian alone?

Answer:

39 read all three news papers,72 Exactly two Papers & 52 reads Guardian Alone

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given, A survey of 290 newspaper readers.

Who read the Daily times A=181

Who read the Guardian times B=142

Who read the punch C=117

Who read Daily Times and the Guardian A\cap B= 75

Who read Daily Times and the punch A\cap C=60

Who read Guardian and punch B\cap C=54

To find :

How many readers read All three papers, Exactly two of the papers The Guardian alone?

Solution :

Readers read all three papers is $A\cap B\cap C$

Total survey is given by,

Total = $A+B + C- A\cap B- A\cap C - B\cap C+ A\cap B\cap C$

290 = $181 + 142 + 117 - 75 -60 - 54 +A\cap B\cap C$

290 = $251+A\cap B\cap C$

290-251= $A\cap B\cap C$

$A\cap B\cap C=39$

So, number of readers who read all three papers is 39.

Exactly two of the papers = 36 + 21 + 15 = 72

Guardian Alone = 52

Suppose that 90% of all dialysis patients will survive for at least 5 years. In a simple random sample of 100 new dialysis patie

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The probability $P(\^ p > 0.80) = 0.99957$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is p = 0.90

The sample size is n = 30

Generally mean of the sampling distribution is $\mu_{\= x } = p = 0.90$

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p( -p )}{n} }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{0.90( 1 -0.90 )}{100} }$

=> $\sigma = 0.03$

Generally the he probability that the proportion surviving for at least five years will exceed 80%, rounded to 5 decimal places is mathematically represented as

$P(\^ p > 0.80) = P(\frac{ \^ p - p }{ \sigma } > \frac{0.80 - 0.90}{0.03} )$

Generally $\frac{\^p - p}{\sigma} = Z(The standardized \ value \ of \^ p)$

$P(\^ p > 0.80) = P(Z > -3.33 )$

From the z-table $P(Z > -3.33 ) = 0.99957$

$P(\^ p > 0.80) = 0.99957$

A California distributor of sporting equipment expects to sell 10,000 cases of tennis balls during the coming year at a steady r

sleet_krkn [62]

Economic Order Quantity

The economic order quantity, that is, the order quantity that minimizes the inventory cost is:

300 cases of tennis balls

Data and Calculations:

Sales of tennis balls for the coming year = 10,000 units

Carrying (holding) costs per case = $10

Cost of placing orders with the manufacturer = $45 per order

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = square root of (2 * Annual Demand/Sales * Ordering cost)/Carrying cost per case

= square root of (2 * 10,000 * $45)/$10

= square root of 90,000

= 300 tennis balls

This implies that the distributor will place about 33 orders in the coming year. With each order, the quantity placed is 300 units. This is the economic order quantity that will minimize its inventory cost for the year.

A box contains 5 red and 5 blue marbles. Two marbles are withdrawn randomly. If they are the same color, then you win $1.10; if

topjm [15]

Answer:

a) The expected value is $\frac{-1}{15}$

b) The variance is $\frac{49}{45}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can assume that both marbles are withdrawn at the same time. We will define the probability as follows

#events of interest/total number of events.

We have 10 marbles in total. The number of different ways in which we can withdrawn 2 marbles out of 10 is $\binom{10}{2}$ .

Consider the case in which we choose two of the same color. That is, out of 5, we pick 2. The different ways of choosing 2 out of 5 is $\binom{5}{2}$ . Since we have 2 colors, we can either choose 2 of them blue or 2 of the red, so the total number of ways of choosing is just the double.

Consider the case in which we choose one of each color. Then, out of 5 we pick 1. So, the total number of ways in which we pick 1 of each color is $\binom{5}{1}\cdot \binom{5}{1}$ . So, we define the following probabilities.
