What is the experimental probability that the next person will be a woman taking the elevator up?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

39/160

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Final answer:

The experimental probability that the next person will be a woman taking the elevator up is calculated by dividing the number of women who took the elevator up (39) by the total number of people who went up (75), resulting in a simplified probability of 13/25.

Explanation:

The question asks for the experimental probability that the next person will be a woman taking the elevator up. To find this, we look at the number of women who previously took the elevator up and divide it by the total number of people taking the elevator up. In the table provided, 39 women took the elevator up, and the total number of people taking the elevator up is the sum of both men and women who did so, which is 36 (men) + 39 (women) = 75 (total).

The experimental probability is therefore calculated as follows:

Probability = Number of Women Going Up / Total Number Going Up
Probability = 39 / 75

The simplified fraction for the probability is 13/25 after dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3.

If $500 yields $51.76 in simple interest over 7yrs, what is the annual rate? Answer need to be rounded to the nearest thousandth

Answers

The annual rate of interest is 1.479%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Principle (P) = $500

Interest (I) = $51.76

Time (T) = 7 years

To find out the rate of interest (R).

Formula

Simple interest (I) = [tex]\frac{PTR}{100}[/tex]

According to the problem,

[tex]\frac{PTR}{100}[/tex] = 51.76

or, R = [tex]\frac{51.76X100}{PT}[/tex]

or, R =  [tex]\frac{51.76X100}{500X7}[/tex]

= 1.4788 = 1.479% (approx)

Answer:

1.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal, P = $500

Simple interest S.I. = $51.76

Period, T = 7 years

Simple interest = P*R*T / 100

Let's make rate, R the subject of formula

R = 100 * S.I. / P * T

Slot in the respective values

R = 100 * 51.76 / 500 * 7

R = 1.5%

Answer:

[tex](a)=6\\(b)=1\ \frac {1}{2}\\(c)=1\ \frac {1}{2}\\d=6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

3 ft long when divided into half ft each will be

3ft ÷1/2 ft

We change the ÷ to × then the second part is reciprocated hence

3ft÷1/2= 3ft×2/1=6 pieces

(b)

The question requires us to get the differences. Initially, Phil makes 3 quarts of soup but the family takes only half of the original quantity to mean Phil remains with the other half.

Therefore, half of 3 is 3×1/2=3/2= 1.5 or 1 1/2

(c)

Hiding 3 pounds of gold into two equal sections means 3 is divided by 2

3÷2=1.5 or 1 1/2

Side WZ=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he two are similar you need to make a ratio of the two parallelograms

The first tells you side FE is 2 and side EH is 3 so write it like this 2/3.

Next you need to do the same thing with the second parallelogram, so you know side XW is 6 but you don't know side WZ so you'd write this one 6/x.

You can do this since FE is similar to XW, because it is the same shape just bigger.

Next you take the two fractions adn set them equal to each other.

2       6

_   =  _

3       x

Now cross multiply (2 timesx and 6 times 3)

It should look like this now

Let f(x) = 8x + 5 and g(x) = -2x - 4 Find the value of f(2) + g(5) *

Answers

Answer:  lock down

Step-by-step explanation: f(x)= 8x2 + 5=21--> f(x)=21

g(x)= -2x5 - 4=-14--> g(x)=-14

f(2)+g(5) = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

f(x) = 8x+5

g(x) = -2x-4

To find f(2)+g(5)

Now,

f(2) means putting the value of x = 2 in f(x)

g(5) means putting the value of x = 5 in g(x)

f(2) = 8(2)+5 = 21

g(5) = -2(5)-4 = -14

Hence,

f(2)+g(5) = 21-14 = 7

The sum of the present ages of a father and his son is 80 years. When the
father's age was equal to the present age of the son, the sum of their ages
would be 40 years. Find their present ages.

Answers

Answer:

Father=60

Son=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the father's age be x

Let the son age be y

Present age of them

X+y=80...(1)

Since the father's age equals to the present age of the son

Y+y=40

2y=40....(2)

Make y the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 2

Y=20

Substitute the value for x into (1)

20+x=80

Substrate 20 from both sides

X=60

Therefore the father's age is 60 and the son's age is 20

A bag contains 5 red, 4 green, and 3 blue marbles. What is the probability of randomly picking a green marble, replacing it, and then randomly picking a blue marble?

Answers

Final answer:

The probability of first picking a green marble, replacing it, and then picking a blue marble from a bag containing 5 red, 4 green, and 3 blue marbles is 1/12.

Explanation:

The question is about calculating the probability of selecting a green marble and then a blue marble from a bag with a replacement in between the picks. The process involves two independent events since the green marble is replaced before picking the blue marble.

To calculate the probability of picking a green marble first, we consider the total number of marbles and the number of green marbles. Given there are 5 red, 4 green, and 3 blue marbles, the total number of marbles is 5+4+3=12. The probability of picking a green marble is thus 4/12 or 1/3. Because we replace the green marble, the bag's contents remain the same for the second pick.

The probability of picking a blue marble after replacing the green marble is therefore based on the same total of 12 marbles. The probability is 3/12 or 1/4. Now, since these are independent events, we multiply the two probabilities together to get the overall probability of both events happening in sequence: (1/3) * (1/4) = 1/12.

In summary, the probability of first picking a green marble, replacing it, and then picking a blue marble is 1/12.

Final answer:

The probability of randomly picking a green marble, replacing it, and then randomly picking a blue marble is 1/12.

Explanation:

To find the probability of randomly picking a green marble, replacing it, and then randomly picking a blue marble, we need to first calculate the individual probabilities.

The bag initially contains 5 red, 4 green, and 3 blue marbles. The probability of picking a green marble is 4/12, since there are 4 green marbles out of a total of 12 marbles.

Since the first marble is replaced, the bag still contains the same number of green marbles, so the probability of picking a blue marble on the second draw is also 3/12, since there are 3 blue marbles left out of 12 marbles.

To find the probability of both events happening, we multiply the individual probabilities: (4/12) * (3/12) = 1/12.

2.75 cups of water mixed with 3.5 cups of pancake mix will make 19 pancakes. How much water is needed if there is only 1.5 cups of pancake mix left?

Answers

Answer:

You would need .75 cups of water (or 3/4 cups) if there is only 1.5 cups of pancake mix left

Step-by-step explanation:

So the ratio of water to pancake mix is 2.75 : 3.5 (which makes 19 pancakes)

To get from 3.5 cups of pancake mix to 1.5 cups of pancake mix you would subtract 2 cups. Since this is a ratio, you would not only subtract 2 cups from the pancake mix, but also from the water. 2.75 - 2 = .75 Therefore, you would need .75 cups of water (or 3/4 cups) if there is only 1.5 cups of pancake mix left. Hope this helps!

Answer:

1 5/28 cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Water : pancake mix

2.75 : 3.5

X : 1.5

2.75/X = 3.5/1.5

X = 2.75 × 1.5/3.5

X = 33/28 or 1 5/28 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

 U V total

S  26 42 68

T   21 k 32

Total 47 53 100

So, you want to look at the column and row labeled total, this is the key.  for the row total, it sums up everything in the column above it.  so for the u column, the total value is 47 while the two values above it are 26  and 21.  These two values sum to 47.  This is the same for all other columns, and you can use the same reasoning with the total column as well summing rows.

This gives you two ways to solve for k.  either 21 + k = 32 or 42 + k = 53.  Either way gets you the answer k = 11

The value of k in the relative frequency table is 11%.

What is relative frequency?

The ratio of the frequency of a particular event in a statistical experiment to the total frequency.

T         21        k            32

Total   47       53          100

As, when we add the column data 26+ 21 = 47 which shows that the total consist of sum of column data.

What is Probability?

The probability that an event will occur is measured by the ratio of favorable examples to the total number of situations possible

Probability = number of desirable outcomes / total number of possible outcomes

The value of probability lies between 0 and 1

Given data ,

Let the number of times the coin is flipped be n = 50

And , the number of times the heads is shown = 20 times

The number of times the tails is shown = 30 times

The theoretical probability of a coin being head or tail P ( A ) = 50 %

So , the experimental probability of being a head is P ( B ) = 20/50

P ( B ) = 40/100 = 40 %

Therefore , P ( A ) > P ( B )

Hence , theoretical probability is more

month of September, 291 babies are born, with a mean
weight of 7.8 pounds.
7.83 pounds

7.97 pounds
7.99 pounds

Answers

Final answer:

The approximate mean weight for babies born during the two months of August and September is calculated using a weighted average, and it is approximately 7.97 pounds.

Explanation:

To find the mean weight of the babies born during the two months, we can use the weighted average formula which takes into account the different numbers of babies born in each month and their respective mean weights.

The formula for the weighted mean is as follows:

Weighted mean = (Sum of weights × their respective frequencies) / (Total sum of frequencies)

Calculate the total weight for August: 360 babies × 8.1 pounds = 2916 pounds.Calculate the total weight for September: 291 babies × 7.8 pounds = 2269.8 pounds.Add the weights from both months: 2916 pounds + 2269.8 pounds = 5185.8 pounds.Add the number of babies from both months: 360 babies + 291 babies = 651 babies.Divide the total weight by the total number of babies: 5185.8 pounds ÷ 651 babies = approximately 7.97 pounds.

Therefore, the approximate mean weight for the babies born during August and September is 7.97 pounds.
