Answer: 100-x

Therefore, the algebraic exp

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : x represents the number of pounds of coffee​ A.

The total weight of the mix of coffee A and coffee B = 100 pounds.

Then , we have the following expression to represents the number of pounds of coffee B:-

100-x

Therefore, the algebraic expression that represents the number of pounds of coffee B. :-

100-x

We flip a fair coin five times. For every heads you pay me $1 and for every tails I pay you $1. Let X denote the my net winning
TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability mass of X is 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

If we set the winning requirement of your heads and my tails then the occurring possibility of both is 1/2 or 0.5.

Hence let us make a graph and use the figures to calculate the all the probabilities of you getting a heads.

Where X represents the number of dollars won during the flip of the coin, probability of heads represent the chances of occurrence of the value and of winning the dollars.

The probability of winning start to drop as the winning amount increases.

       

     X                          0     1               2     3       4      5

Probability of Heads  0 0.50 0.25 0.13    0.06 0.03

Three couples and two single individuals have been invited to an investment seminar and have agreed to attend. Suppose the proba
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

(a) Probability mass function

P(X=0) = 0.0602

P(X=1) = 0.0908

P(X=2) = 0.1704

P(X=3) = 0.2055

P(X=4) = 0.1285

P(X=5) = 0.1550

P(X=6) = 0.1427

P(X=7) = 0.0390

P(X=8) = 0.0147

NOTE: the sum of the probabilities gives 1.0068 for rounding errors. It can be divided by 1.0068 to get the adjusted values.

(b) Cumulative distribution function of X

F(X=0) = 0.0602

F(X=1) = 0.1510

F(X=2) = 0.3214

F(X=3) = 0.5269

F(X=4) = 0.6554

F(X=5) = 0.8104

F(X=6) = 0.9531

F(X=7) = 0.9921

F(X=8) = 1.0068

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of people who arrive late to the seminar, we can assess that X can take values from 0 (everybody on time) to 8 (everybody late).

<u>For X=0</u>

This happens when every couple and the singles are on time (ot).

P(X=0)=P(\#1=ot)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot)\\\\P(X=0)=(1-0.43)^{5}=0.57^5= 0.0602

<u>For X=1</u>

This happens when only one single arrives late. It can be #4 or #5. As the probabilities are the same (P(#4=late)=P(#5=late)), we can multiply by 2 the former probability:

P(X=1) = P(\#4=late)+P(\#5=late)=2*P(\#4=late)\\\\P(X=1) = 2*P(\#1=ot)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=late)*P(\#5=ot)\\\\P(X=1) = 2*0.57*0.57*0.57*0.43*0.57\\\\P(X=1) = 2*0.57^4*0.43=2*0.0454=0.0908

<u>For X=2</u>

This happens when

1) Only one of the three couples is late, and the others cooples and singles are on time.

2) When both singles are late , and the couples are on time.

P(X=2)=3*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot))+P(\#1=ot)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=l)\\\\P(X=2)=3*(0.43*0.57^4)+(0.43^2*0.57^3)=0.1362+0.0342=0.1704

<u>For X=3</u>

This happens when

1) Only one couple (3 posibilities) and one single are late (2 posibilities). This means there are 3*2=6 combinations of this.

P(X=3)=6*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot))\\\\P(X=3)=6*(0.43^2*0.57^3)=6*0.342=0.2055

<u>For X=4</u>

This happens when

1) Only two couples are late. There are 3 combinations of these.

2) Only one couple and both singles are late. Only one combination of these situation.

P(X=4)=3*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot))+P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=l)\\\\P(X=4)=3*(0.43^2*0.57^3)+(0.43^3*0.57^2)\\\\P(X=4)=3*0.0342+ 0.0258=0.1027+0.0258=0.1285

<u>For X=5</u>

This happens when

1) Only two couples (3 combinations) and one single are late (2 combinations). There are 6 combinations.

P(X=6)=6*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot))\\\\P(X=6)=6*(0.43^3*0.57^2)=6*0.0258=0.1550

<u>For X=6</u>

This happens when

1) Only the three couples are late (1 combination)

2) Only two couples (3 combinations) and one single (2 combinations) are late

P(X=6)=P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=l)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot)+6*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot))\\\\P(X=6)=(0.43^3*0.57^2)+6*(0.43^4*0.57)\\\\P(X=6)=0.0258+6*0.0195=0.0258+0.1169=0.1427

<u>For X=7</u>

This happens when

1) Only one of the singles is on time (2 combinations)

P(X=7)=2*P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=l)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot)\\\\P(X=7)=2*0.43^4*0.57=0.0390

<u>For X=8</u>

This happens when everybody is late

P(X=8)=P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=l)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=l)\\\\P(X=8) = 0.43^5=0.0147

miss Akunina [59]

The most reasonable description of the two populations for her conclusion   is business and nursing students in the classes that were surveyed at  Diablo Valley College (DVC).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question itself indicates that., For a statistics project, a community college student at Diablo Valley College (DVC) decides to investigate cheating in two popular majors at DVC in order to find out the most academic cheaters.,

also the researcher( student) convinces the professors who teach business and nursing courses at DVC to distribute a short anonymous survey in their classes. So., The most reasonable description of the two populations for her conclusion is business and nursing students in the classes that were surveyed at  Diablo Valley College (DVC).
