Relative frequency is the value assigned to each class in the proportion of the total data set that belongs in the class.

Relative frequency formula is :

\frac{class-Frequency}{Total- observations}--------------------(1)

So for class 0 to 5 miles we have 247 fans. So this class frequency is 247.

Total fans surveyed is 500

So plug these values in relative frequency formula given by (1)

relative frequency = \frac{247}{500}

On simplifying we get

relative frequency = 0.494

So choice (c) 0.494 is the right answer

Answer:

(a) The probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b) The probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of soldiers killed by horse kicks in 1 year.

The random variable X\sim Poisson(\lambda = 0.62).

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,...

(a)

Compute the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year as follows:

P (X > 1) = 1 - P (X ≤ 1)

             = 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

             =1-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{-0.62}(0.62)^{1}}{1!}\\=1-0.54335-0.33144\\=0.12521\\\approx0.1252

Thus, the probability of more than one death in a corps in a year is 0.1252.

(b)

The average deaths over 7 year period is: \lambda=7\times0.62=4.34

Compute the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years as follows:

P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-4.34}(4.34)^{0}}{0!}=0.01304\approx0.0130

Thus, the probability of no deaths in a corps over 7 years is 0.0130.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Option E

Step-by-step explanation:

This survey will not be reliable as it is chosen for convenience; the first 120 students to arrive in school on a particular morning and this collection of individuals may not be a representative of the population. The study may become biased because it does not take into account the latecomers among the students which might have been changed the study from systematically favoring certain outcomes.

In a forest, 20% of mushrooms are red, 50% brown, and 30% white. A red mushroom is poisonous with a probability of 20%. A mushro
kirill115 [55]
Draw a simple branch diagram to work the probabilities out. You find that the chance of a poisonous mushroom is 0.08 and the chance of a red poisonous is 0.04. So the probability that a poisonous mushroom is red is 1/2 or 0.5.

So that means that 9 is multiplying by the SUM (adding) of 13 and a number (n)
