Food Express is running a special promotion in which customers can win a free gallon of milk with their food purchase if there i

s a star on their receipt. So far, 219 of the first 264 customers have not received a star on their receipts. What is the experimental probability of winning a free gallon of milk?

In this case probability is the likelihood that from 264 customers one customer wins free gallon of milk with his food purchase, or in other words the probability that one customer receives a star on his receipt.
Probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of all  possible events. From 264 customers, 219 have not received a star. The opposite is to receive a star and that is the situation: (1-219)/264=0.17,

I am Lyosha [343]
The medium sized orange would have 62 calories. To divide by 1/5, which in decimal form is 0.2, you just multiply 310 by 0.2, therefore, giving you 62. Hope this helps!

Amar cycles at a speed of 18km/h.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

<em>The distance between the two villages is 16.5 Km</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Constant Speed Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the distance of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

If v is the constant speed, the object travels a distance x in a time t, given by the equation:

x=vt

Amar cycles at v=18 Km/h for t=55 minutes. We need to calculate the distance traveled between the two villages.

Since the speed and the time are given in different units, we convert the time to hours, recalling that 1 hour=60 minute.

t=55 min = 55/60 hours

For the sake of precision, we won't operate the division so far. Compute the distance:

x=18 *55/60=16.5 Km

The distance between the two villages is 16.5 Km

In choice situations of this type, subjects often exhibit the "center stage effect," which is a tendency to choose the item in t
victus00 [196]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

The probability that he or she would choose the pair of socks in the center position is   p =\frac{1}{5}

The correct answer choice is

X has a binomial distribution with parameters n=100 and p=1/5  

b

The mean is  \mu = 20

The standard deviation is \sigma=4

c

The probability, P =0.0002

d

The correct answer is

The experiment supports the center stage effect. If participants were truly picking the socks at random, it would be highly unlikely for 34 or more to choose the center pair.

Using the R the probability Pe = 0.0003

The probabilities P \approx Pe

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the person selects his or her desired pair of socks at random , then the probability that the person would choose the pair of socks in the center position from all the five identical pair is mathematically evaluated as

                  p =\frac{1}{5}

                    =0.2

The mean of this distribution is mathematical represented as

           \mu = np

substituting the value

         \mu = 100 * 0.2

             \mu = 20

The standard deviation is mathematically represented as

         \sigma = \sqrt{np (1-p)}

substituting the value

           = \sqrt{100 * 0,2 (1-0.2)}

           \sigma=4

Applying normal approximation the probability that 34 or more subjects would choose the item in the center if each subject were selecting his or her preferred pair of socks at random would be mathematically represented as

               P=P(X \ge 34 )

By standardizing the normal approximation we have that

              P(X \ge 34) \approx P(Z \ge z)

Now z is mathematically evaluated as

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

Substituting values

             z = \frac{34-20}{4}

               =3.5

So  using the z table the P(Z \ge 3.5) is  0.0002

The probability P and Pe that 34 or more subject would choose the center pair is very small  So

The correct answer is

The experiment supports the center stage effect. If participants were truly picking the socks at random, it would be highly unlikely for 34 or more to choose the center pair.
