According to Net Market Share, Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser has 53.4% of the global market. A random sample of 70 users

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Probability that 32 or more from this sample used Internet Explorer as their browser is 0.9015.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that according to Net Market Share, Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser has 53.4% of the global market.

A random sample of 70 users was selected.

Let $\hat p$ = <u><em>sample proportion of users who used Internet Explorer as their browser.</em></u>

The z score probability distribution for sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, p = population proportion of users who use internet explorer = 53.4%

$\hat p$ = sample proportion = $\frac{32}{70}$ = 0.457

n = sample of users = 70

Now, probability that 32 or more from this sample used Internet Explorer as their browser is given by = P( $\hat p$ $\geq$ 0.457)

P( $\hat p$ $\geq$ 0.457) = P( $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ $\geq$ $\frac{0.457-0.534}{\sqrt{\frac{0.457(1-0.457)}{70} } }$ ) = P(Z $\geq$ -1.29)

= P(Z $\leq$ 1.29) = <u>0.9015</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.29 in the z table which has an area of 0.9015.

Which test point holds true for y − 2x ≤ 1?

CaHeK987 [17]

So in order to find the correct answer, we can just easily plug in the values to check which ordered pair matches the given inequality above. So based on my solutions, the correct answer would be the last pair.
<span> y − 2x ≤ 1
0 - 2(5)</span> ≤ 1
0-10 ≤ 1
-10 ≤ 1
Hope this answer helps.

A baseball player has 39 hits in 134 times at bat. how many hits must he get in the next 46 times at bat to finish the year with

faust18 [17]

Answer:

He must get 33 hits in his next 46 times at bat to finish the year with a .400 batting average

Step-by-step explanation:

The player has already batted 134 times and will still bat 46 times. So in the end of the year, he is going to have 134 + 46 = 180 at bats.

How many hits does he need to have to hit .400?

This is 40% of 180, which is 0.4*180 = 72.

He has already 39 hits, so in his next 46 at bats, he will need 72 - 39 = 33 hits.

Suppose that only 20% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions whe

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

a) 91.33% probability that at most 6 will come to a complete stop

b) 10.91% probability that exactly 6 will come to a complete stop.

c) 19.58% probability that at least 6 will come to a complete stop

d) 4 of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop

Step-by-step explanation:

For each driver, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will come to a complete stop, or they will not. The probability of a driver coming to a complete stop is independent of other drivers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

20% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions when no other cars are visible.

This means that $p = 0.2$

20 drivers

This means that $n = 20$

a. at most 6 will come to a complete stop?

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{20} = 0.0115$

$P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{19} = 0.0576$

$P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{18} = 0.1369$

$P(X = 3) = C_{20,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{17} = 0.2054$

$P(X = 4) = C_{20,4}.(0.2)^{4}.(0.8)^{16} = 0.2182$

$P(X = 5) = C_{20,5}.(0.2)^{5}.(0.8)^{15} = 0.1746$

$P(X = 6) = C_{20,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.1091$

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 + 0.2054 + 0.2182 + 0.1746 + 0.1091 = 0.9133$

91.33% probability that at most 6 will come to a complete stop

b. Exactly 6 will come to a complete stop?

$P(X = 6) = C_{20,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.1091$

10.91% probability that exactly 6 will come to a complete stop.

c. At least 6 will come to a complete stop?

Either less than 6 will come to a complete stop, or at least 6 will. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X < 6) + P(X \geq 6) = 1$

We want $P(X \geq 6)$ . So

$P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6)$

In which

$P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 + 0.2054 + 0.2182 + 0.1746 = 0.8042$

$P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6) = 1 - 0.8042 = 0.1958$

19.58% probability that at least 6 will come to a complete stop

d. How many of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is

$E(X) = np = 20*0.2 = 4$

4 of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop
