Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a student winning is 1/4.

The probability of a prize being selected is 1/3.

The probability of Gail winning a scarf is 1/4 × 1/3 = 1/12.

The probability of Simon winning is 1/4.

The probability of either is 1/12 + 1/4 = 1/3.

Answer:

<h3>Negative (negative 20) = 20</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Shana temperature = -20°C

°If Pearls temperature is opposite that of Shana's then Pearls temparature = -(-20) = 20°C

Hence the correct way to represent "the opposite of Shana's temperature is equal to Pearl's

Opposite of shana = -(-20°C)

Pearls temperature = +20°C

Since Opposite of shana = Pearls temperature, hence  -(-20°C) = 20°C

AlekseyPX

Answer:

His 95% confidence interval is (0.065, 0.155).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 186, \pi = 0.11

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.11 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{186}} = 0.065

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.11 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.11*0.89}{186}} = 0.155

His 95% confidence interval is (0.065, 0.155).

The grade point average (GPA) of the students at Lakeview High School is normally distributed with a mean of 3.1 and a standard
Morgarella [4.7K]
Approximately 1718 have a score within that range.

We calculate the z-score for each end of this spectrum:

z = (X-μ)/σ = (2.5-3.1)/0.3 = -0.6/0.3 = -2

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.0228.

For the upper end:
z = (3.7-3.1)/0.3 = 0.6/0.3 = 2

Using a z-table, we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.9772.

The probability between these is given by subtracting these:
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544.

This means the proportion of people that should fall between these is 0.9544:
0.9544*1800 = 1717.92 ≈ 1718
