Pollsters are concerned about declining levels of cooperation among persons contacted in surveys. a pollster contacts 92 people in the 18-21 age bracket and finds that 78 of them respond and 14 refuse to respond. when 284 people in the 22-29 age bracket are contacted, 265 respond and 19 refuse to respond. assume that 1 of the 376 people is randomly selected. find the probability of getting someone in the 22-29 age bracket or someone who refused to respond.
Final answer:
The probability of selecting a person from the 22-29 age bracket or someone who refused to respond is approximately 79.3% out of the total number of people contacted.
Explanation:
The student is asking about finding the probability of selecting either a person from the 22-29 age bracket or someone who refused to respond from a combined group of people contacted in a survey. To solve this problem, we use the addition rule of probability. The total number of people is 376. The number of people who are in the 22-29 age bracket is 284, and the number of people who refused to respond is 14+19=33. However, this would include those who refused from the 22-29 bracket twice, so we subtract the 19 from the 22-29 age group who refused, leaving us with 33-19=14. Thus, the total number in either category is the sum of these, 284+14=298.
The probability (P) of picking someone from the 22-29 age bracket or someone who refused to respond is therefore calculated as:
P = Number in either category / Total number = 298 / 376 ≈ 0.793 or 79.3%

Use the empirical rule to solve the problem. ed's monthly phone bill is normally distributed with a mean of $65 and a standard deviation of $11. what percentage of his phone bills are more than $76?
Answer:
16% of his phone bills are more than $76
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 65
Standard deviation = 11
What percentage of his phone bills are more than $76?
76 = 65 + 11
So 76 is one standard deviation above the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean. The other 100-68 = 32% are more than 1 standard deviation from the mean. Since the normal probability distribution is symmetric, 16% of them are more than 1 standard deviation below the mean and 16% are more than 1 standard deviation above the mean. So
16% of his phone bills are more than $76

If the cubic function P(x) includes the points (−4, 0), (0, 0), and (2, 0), which of the following represents this function?
The function cannot be determined with the given information.
Explanation:The given points (-4, 0), (0, 0), and (2, 0) indicate that the function is a cubic function with three real roots. A cubic function is of the form P(x) = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d. Since the function passes through the x-axis at (-4, 0), (0, 0), and (2, 0), the roots of the cubic function are -4, 0, and 2. Therefore, the function can be written as P(x) = a(x + 4)(x - 0)(x - 2). However, since a cubic function with three real roots has an odd degree, the coefficient 'a' must be negative or positive. This means that the function can also be written as P(x) = -a(x + 4)(x - 0)(x - 2) or P(x) = a(x + 4)(x - 0)(x - 2). So, the correct representation of the function cannot be determined with the given information.
given the equation W=CE2/2, solve for C
Answer:
[tex]C=\frac{2W}{E^2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]W=\frac{CE^2}{2}[/tex]
Solve for C
To solve for C, we need to get C alone
LEts start with eliminating 2 from the denominator
Multiply the equation by 2 on both sides
[tex]2W= CE^2[/tex]
To isolate C, divide both sides by E^2
[tex]\frac{2W}{E^2} =C[/tex]
[tex]C=\frac{2W}{E^2}[/tex]

A box has dimensions of 3 inches, 5 inches and 7 inches what is the surface area
Final answer:
The surface area of a box with dimensions of 3 inches by 5 inches by 7 inches is calculated using the formula 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, resulting in a total surface area of 142 square inches.
Explanation:
To calculate the surface area of a box with dimensions of 3 inches, 5 inches, and 7 inches, you would use the surface area formula for a rectangular prism. The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height of the prism.
In this case:
Length (l) = 3 inches
Width (w) = 5 inches
Height (h) = 7 inches
Now, plug these dimensions into the formula:
Surface Area = 2(3 inches × 5 inches) + 2(3 inches × 7 inches) + 2(5 inches × 7 inches)
Surface Area = 2(15) + 2(21) + 2(35)
Surface Area = 30 + 42 + 70
Surface Area = 142 square inches
Therefore, the surface area of a box with dimensions of 3 inches by 5 inches by 7 inches is 142 square inches.

Jerome went on a hike. He climbed three-fourths of a mile in two-thirds of an hour. What was his hiking speed in miles per hour?
Final answer:
Jerome's hiking speed was calculated by dividing the distance he hiked, three-fourths of a mile, by the time it took him, two-thirds of an hour. This yielded a hiking speed of 1.125 miles per hour.
Explanation:
To calculate Jerome's hiking speed in miles per hour, we need to divide the distance he hiked by the time it took him. Jerome hiked three-fourths of a mile in two-thirds of an hour. To find the speed, we use the formula:
Speed = Distance ÷ Time
Speed = ¾ mile ÷ ⅓ hour
To divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the denominator:
Speed = ¾ × ⅔ = 3/4 × 3/2 = 9/8
This fraction simplifies to 1⅛ (1.125) miles per hour. So, Jerome's hiking speed was 1.125 miles per hour.
It is important to remember that when we talk about speed, we are referring to the distance traveled over a certain period of time regardless of the direction of travel.

suppose that a pair of 7 sided dice is tossed. What is the expected value of the sum?
The expected value of the sum when rolling a pair of 7-sided dice is 8.
Explanation:When rolling a pair of 7-sided dice, each die has numbers 1 through 7 on its faces. To find the expected value of the sum, we need to calculate the average of all possible sums.
The first die can have 7 possible outcomes, and for each outcome, the second die can also have 7 possible outcomes. This gives us a total of 7*7=49 possible outcomes. The sums of these outcomes range from 2 (1+1) to 14 (7+7).
To find the expected value, we multiply each sum by its probability and sum them up. Since each sum has an equal probability of occurring (1/49), we can simplify the calculation:
Expected value = (2*1/49) + (3*1/49) + (4*1/49) + ... + (14*1/49) = 8
Therefore, the expected value of the sum when rolling a pair of 7-sided dice is 8.
