Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By drawing the point (-3,-1) in the coordinate plane we find the graph shown below. Since there are 10 points between points A and B, we need to start at point A and then we have to move 11 units either to the right, to the left, up, or down .
1. MOVING TO THE RIGHT:
From point A, move 11 units horizontally to the right to come to point B:
(-3+11, -1) = (8, -1)
2. MOVING TO THE LEFT:
From point A, move 11 units horizontally to the left to come to point B:
(-3-11, -1) = (-14, -1)
3. MOVING UPWARD:
From point A, move 11 units vertically upward to come to point B:
(-3, -1+11) = (-3, 10)
4. MOVING DOWNWARD:
From point A, move 11 units vertically downward to come to point B:
(-3, -1-11) = (-3, -12)
So this are the basic movements you can get to find point B. You also can move diagonally upwards or downwards in whose case you would find other four points. The graph below shows a red point which is A, and the other points are in black color and represent B.
Answer:
(a)
(b) P(1) = 0.740, P(2) = 0.192, and P(3) = 0.050.
(c) The probability that n ≥ 4 is 0.018.
(d) The expected number of residents in the village you must meet before you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that on the leeward side of the island of Oahu, in a small village, about 74% of the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry.
Let n = 1, 2, 3, … represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village.
(a) We can observe that the above situation can be represented through the geometric distribution because the geometric distribution states that we will keep on going with the trials until we achieve our first success,
Here also, n represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village.
So, the probability distribution of the geometric distribution is given by;
where, p = probability that the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry = 74%
(b) The probabilities that n = 1, n = 2, and n = 3 is given by;
P(1) = = 0.74
P(2) = = 0.192
P(3) = = 0.050
(c) The probability that n ≥ 4 is given by = P(n ≥ 4)
P(n ≥ 4) = 1 - P(n = 1) - P(n = 2) - P(n = 3)
= 1 - 0.74 - 0.192 - 0.050
= 0.018
(d) The expected number of residents in the village you must meet before you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry is given by = E(n)
We know that the mean of the geometric distribution is given by;
Mean = =
= = 2.85 or 3 (approx).
