Clint is in study hall reading the hunger games after 20 minutes he is on page 151 after 45 minutes he's on page 181 how many pa

Mademuasel [1]

After 20 minutes Clint is on page = 151

After 45 minutes Clint is on page = 181

Time slot = $45-20=25$ minutes

Difference in pages in 25 minutes = $181-151=30$ pages.

Lets suppose Clint is reading each page at same pace.

So , In 25 minutes, he can read = 30 pages

In 1 minute he can read = $\frac{30}{25}=1.2$ pages

Initial time is 20 minutes, so he can read the number of pages in 20 minutes = $20\times1.2=24$

So, number of pages Clint read prior to study hall were =

$151-24=127$ pages.

A probability calculator is required on this problem; answer to six decimal places. Suppose we will spin the wheel pictured 400

KiRa [710]

Answer:

$P(90< X< 110)= P(\frac{90-80}{8}$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(90< X< 110)=P(z$

And we can find the real value with the following excel code using the binomial distribution:

"=BINOM.DIST(110,400,0.2,TRUE)-BINOM.DIST(89,400,0.2,TRUE)"

And we got 0.118 a very close value from the value obtained using the normal approximation

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=400, p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

We need to check the conditions in order to use the normal approximation.

$np=400*0.2=80 \geq 10$

$n(1-p)=400*(1-0.2)=320 \geq 10$

So we see that we satisfy the conditions and then we can apply the approximation.

If we appply the approximation the new mean and standard deviation are:

$E(X)=np=400*0.2=80$

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{400*0.2(1-0.2)}=8$

So then we can approximate the random variable as $X \sim N(\mu = 80, \sigma = 8)$

And we want this probability:

$P(90< X< 110)$

We can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{x -\mu}{\sigma}$

And replacing we got:

$P(90< X< 110)= P(\frac{90-80}{8}$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(90< X< 110)=P(z$

And we can find the real value with the following excel code using the binomial distribution:

"=BINOM.DIST(110,400,0.2,TRUE)-BINOM.DIST(89,400,0.2,TRUE)"

And we got 0.118 a very close value from the value obtained using the normal approximation

Nathan had an infection, and his doctor wanted him to take penicillin. Because Nathan’s father and paternal grandfather were all

Sergio039 [100]

Let events
A=Nathan has allergy
~A=Nathan does not have allergy
T=Nathan tests positive
~T=Nathan does not test positive

We are given
P(A)=0.75 [ probability that Nathan is allergic ]
P(T|A)=0.98 [probability of testing positive given Nathan is allergic to Penicillin]

We want to calculate probability that Nathan is allergic AND tests positive
P(T n A)

From definition of conditional probability,
P(T|A)=P(T n A)/P(A)
substitute known values,
0.98 = P(T n A) / 0.75
solving for P(T n A)
P(T n A) = 0.75*0.98 = 0.735

Hope this helps!!

Find the sequence.. <br> 1,2,2,4,8

AlladinOne [14]

Let the n-th term be called $a_n$

We see that if we choose $a_0=1,a_1=2$ then the other numbers follow the pattern $a_{n+2}=a_{n+1}\cdot a_n$ (see : $4=2*2,8=4*2$ )

Hence the sequence will be $1,2,2,4,8,32,256, 8192, 2097152, 17179869184,\dots$
