Flura [38]2 years ago

4 0

To find the Z score for a number to the right,

subtract the value from 1:

1-0.27 = 0.73

Now use a z-score table and look up 0.73.

0.73 is located at Z = 0.615

How do you use a number line to solve 235+123

Novosadov [1.4K]

<span>Number line refers to a mathematical process of solving the equation with the use of lines.
=> 235 + 123
Starting from 0 you count 1 up to 235. Then starting from 235 you additionally count another 123.
Then from zero start counting the total number to the line you stopped when adding 123 to 235.

This simply equals to
=> 235 + 123
=> 358.

Brainly to whoever is first and right:) - In quadrilateral ABCD, AB = BC = 1, m∠B=100°, m∠D=130°. Find BD

n200080 [17]

Answer: 1

B is the center of a circle of radius 1. A and C are on the circle 100 degrees apart. So arc AC is 100 degrees. Arc AC the long way around is 360-100=260 degrees. That means any point D on arc AC will subtend a 130 degree angle. BD is a radius for all of those, and the radius is 1.

James has established the following monthly budget for himself: Rent . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

8090 [49]

Answer:

James's monthly income is $1250.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the budget accounts for James's entire monthly income, the sum of the cost of all the items on the budget is his total monthly income.

Income = 300 + 175 + 125 + 200 + 250 + 50 + 25 + 125 = $1250

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

A student has to take two quizzes tomorrow. He has only enough time to study for one of them. The history quiz has 5 true or fal

nalin [4]

Answer:

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Miguel should study for the Science quiz as he will do worse in that quiz by guessing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel has to take two quizzes

1) 4 true or false questions on History with a 0.5 chance of acing the quiz

Expected number of correct questions = np

n = number of questions

p = probability of acing the test

Expected number of correct questions = 4 × 0.5 = 2

2) 3 multiple choice questions on Science with a 0.2 chance of acing the quiz.

Expected number of correct questions = 0.2 × 3 = 0.6

It is evident that guessing would yield a worse result in the Science quiz with less than 1 question expected to be correct than history, where he is still expected to get 2 questions correctly by guessing.
