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

The net of a triangular prism is shown below. What is the surface area of the prism? A. 128 cm^2 B. 152 cm^2 C. 176 cm^2 D. 304

shtirl [24]

Answer:

B. 152 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area using a net, do this:

Take apart the figure. We see that there are three rectangles and two triangles. Find the area of each ( $A=l*w$ ) and then add the values together:

The first rectangle on the left is the same as the one on the right.

$5*8=40$

Two measures are 40 cm².

The middle rectangle is:

$6*8=48$

48 cm²

The formula for the area of a triangle is $A=\frac{1}{2}*b*h$ :

$A=\frac{1}{2}*6*4\\\\A=\frac{1*6*4}{2}\\\\A=\frac{24}{2}\\\\ A=12$

The area of the two triangles is 12 cm².

Now add the values:

$40+40+48+12+12=152$

The area of the figure is 152 cm².

Jacob has a bag of his favorite marbles. It has 3 red marbles, 4 blue, and 10 of his most favorite color, neon orange. What is t

drek231 [11]

Answer:

$P(1\ and\ 2) = 0.3309$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Red = 3$

$Blue = 4$

$Orange=10$

Required

Probability of selecting 2 orange marbles

The total number of marbles is:

$Total = Red + Blue + Orange$

$Total = 3 + 4 + 10$

$Total = 17$

The probability that the first selection is orange is:

$P(1) = \frac{10}{17}$

Because it is a selection without replacement, the number of orange marbles and the total number of marbles would decrease by 1, respectively.

So, the probability that the selection is orange is:

$P(2) = \frac{10-1}{17-1}$

$P(2) = \frac{9}{16}$

The required probability is:

$P(1\ and\ 2) = P(1) * P(2)$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = \frac{10}{17} * \frac{9}{16}$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = \frac{10*9}{17*16}$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = \frac{90}{272}$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = 0.3309$

We are given with
v1 = 5.5 km/hr
v2 = 4.5 km/hr
d = 10 km
v3 = 30 km/hr

The total time the fly was flying back and forth is
5.5t + 4.5t - 10
t = 1 hr

The total distance traveled by the fly is
