Answer:

X= 232÷ 2-40

     

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you minus the 40 giving you 192. The you do 192 ÷ 2 giving you 96$. So Trey had 96$ saved before mowing lawns.

andrezito [222]
<h3>(a)Probability of cancelling at least 4 classes  is 0.0055.</h3><h3>(b)Probability of 10th class is third class that gets cancelled  = 0.0031</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the question is<u> incomplete</u>.

Every day, a lecture may be canceled due to inclement weather with probability 0.05. Class cancellations on different days are independent.

(a) There are 15 classes left this semester. Compute the probability that at least 4 of them get canceled.

(b) Compute the probability that the tenth class this semester is the third class that gets canceled.

Now, here:

The probability of cancelling each class  = 0.05

Now, probability of cancelling at least 4 classes

= 1 - P(Cancelling  at max 3 classes)

=  1 - P(0 ≤ x  ≤  3)   = 1 - Binomial (15,0.05,3)

= 0.0055

Hence, probability of cancelling at least 4 classes  is 0.0055.

(b) As given, 10th class is third class that gets cancelled.

So, the first and second classes that get cancelled in between 1 - 9.

P(2 class cancelled in 1st 9) = Binomial (15,0.05,3) = 0.0629

Also, as given  P(10th class cancelled) = 0.05

⇒ P(10th class is third class that gets cancelled ) = 0.0629 x 0.05 = 0.0031

A survey of 2690 musicians showed that 368 of them are left-handed. Find a point estimate for p, the population proportion of mu
makkiz [27]

Answer: 0.137.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion of musicians that are left-handed.

Given: Sample size : n= 2690   [subset of population]

Number of musicians that are left-handed: x= 368

Then the sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{368}{2690}\approx0.137

Since sample proportion is the best point estimate of the population proportion.

Hence, a point estimate for p, the population proportion of musicians that are left-handed is 0.137.

Budget planners in two towns, Alphaville and Betaville, developed models to determine the budget surplus (in dollars) for a year
kramer

Answer:

(a)-3x^2+150x-10000

(b)-\$16,863,760,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Alphaville's Budget Surplus Model is -2x^2+ 500x

Betaville's Budget Surplus Model is x^2- 100x + 10000.

We want to determine the expression that shows how much greater Alphaville’s annual budget surplus is than Betaville’s for a particular amount of tax revenue.

  • To do this, we subtract Betaville's Model from Alphaville's model.

-2x^2+ 500x-(x^2- 100x + 10000)\\

Opening the brackets

-2x^2+ 500x-x^2+100x - 10000\\

Collect like terms and simplify

-2x^2-x^2+100x + 500x- 10000\\=-3x^2+150x-10000

The expression that shows how much greater Alphaville's Budget is:

-3x^2+150x-10000

(b) If the tax revenue that year in each town is $75,000

We want to evaluate the expression derived above when the tax revenue that year in each town is $75,000 i.e.at x=75000

-3x^2+150x-10000\\=-3(75000)^2+150(75000)-10000\\=-\$16,863,760,000

Mattel Corporation produces a remote-controlled car that requires three AA batteries. The mean life of these batteries in this p
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

0.0406, 0.8284,0.7887

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mattel Corporation produces a remote-controlled car that requires three AA batteries

X is N(34, 5.5)

Hence sample size of 25 would follow a t distribution with df = 24

This is because sample size <30

t distribution with df 24 would be bell shaped symmetrical about the mean and unimodal.

Std error of sample mean = std dev /sqrt n=\frac{5.5}{5} \\=1.1

Prob (X>36) = P(t>\frac{36-34}{1.1} ) = P(t>1.82)\\= 0.04063

i.e nearly 4.1% of the sample would have a mean useful life of more than 36 hours

X>33.5 implies t>-0.45

=0.82837

=0.8284 proportion will have a mean useful life greater than 33.5 hours

Proportion between 33.5 and 36 hours

= 0.3284+0.4593=0.7887
