Suppose that the prevalence of a certain type of tree allergy is 0.26 in the general population. If 100 people randomly chosen f

rom this population are tested for this allergy, what is the probability that exactly 26 of them will have this allergy? Please write your answer as a decimal, precise to at least four decimal places.

Answer:

The probability that exactly 26 out of 100 randomly selected will have this allergy is P=0.0906.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this as a binomial distribution with parameters:

Size n=100

Probability p=0.26.

We can calculate the probability of getting a sample of exactly 26 positives as:

P(X=k)=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\P(X=26)=\frac{100!}{26!(100-26)!} 0.26^{26}(1-0.26)^{100-26}\\\\P(X=26)=(6.9957*10^{23})*(6.1561*10^{-16})*(2.1045*10^{-10})\\\\P(X=26)=(6.9957*6.1561*2.1045)*10^{23-16-10}\\\\P(X=26)=90.6329*10^{-3}=0.0906

Answer:

0.0906

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the prevalence of a certain type of tree allergy is 0.26 in the general population

X- the no of persons having tree allergy is binomial since each persons is independent of the other and there are two outcomes.

Here n = 100

Required probability = the probability that exactly 26 of them will have this allergy

=P(x=26)=100C26(0.26)^{26} (1-0,26)^{100-26}\\ =0.09063\\=0.0906

The perimeter of the school crossing sign is 102 inches what is the length of each side
Afina-wow [57]
The perimeter of the school crossing sign is 102 inches
length of each side = ?
in the question number of sides is not mentioned, so the answer may vary for the length of each side. if there is 5 sides divide 102 by 5, we get 20.4 answer so in case of 5 sides length of each side is 20.4 inches. if there is 4 sides divide 102 by 4 and we get 25.5 inches answer for the legnth each side.

Erica can run 1 6 6 1 ​ start fraction, 1, divided by, 6, end fraction of a kilometer in a minute. Her school is 3 4 4 3 ​ start
Brut [27]

Her school is 2/3 miles away

2/3=4/6miles

So we need to find out how long it will take for her to run home from school...

School=4/6 miles

In 1 minutes she can run 1/6 miles

1min=1/6miles

In 2 minutes she can run 1/6+1/6 miles (1/6+1/6=2/6)

2min=2/6miles

3min=3/6miles

4min=4/6miles

It will take Erica 4 minutes to run 4/6 miles, so it'll take her 4 minutes to get home.

If θ=0rad at t=0s, what is the blade's angular position at t=20s
babunello [35]
The attached figure represents the relation between ω (rpm) and t (seconds)
To find the blade's angular position in radians ⇒ ω will be converted from (rpm) to (rad/s)
              ω = 250 (rpm) = 250 * (2π/60) = (25/3)π    rad/s
              ω = 100 (rpm) = 100 * (2π/60) = (10/3)π    rad/s

and from the figure it is clear that the operation is at constant speed but with variable levels
            ⇒   ω = dθ/dt   ⇒   dθ = ω dt

            ∴    θ = ∫₀²⁰  ω dt  
 
while ω is not fixed from (t = 0) to (t =20)
the integral will divided to 3 integrals as follow;
       ω = 0                                          from t = 0  to t = 5
       ω = 250 (rpm) = (25/3)π            from t = 5   to t = 15
       ω = 100 (rpm) = (10/3)π            from t = 15 to t = 20

∴ θ = ∫₀⁵  (0) dt   + ∫₅¹⁵  (25/3)π dt + ∫₁₅²⁰  (10/3)π dt
     
the first integral = 0
the second integral = (25/3)π t = (25/3)π (15-5) = (250/3)π
the third integral = (10/3)π t = (25/3)π (20-15) = (50/3)π

∴ θ = 0 + (250/3)π + (50/3)π = 100 π

while the complete revolution = 2π
so instantaneously at t = 20
∴ θ = 100 π - 50 * 2 π = 0 rad

Which mean:
the blade will be at zero position making no of revolution = (100π)/(2π) = 50
