Andrew has a container with 80 game pieces that are different colors.He knows that the probability of choosing a green piece at random from the container is 0.2 and the probability of choosing a yellow piece at random from the container is 0.45. What is the total number of yellow game pieces in the container?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

36 Yellow pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given the total number of pieces is 80 and the probability of choosing a yellow piece at random is 0.45.

-To find the number of yellows pieces in the container, we multiply its probability by the total number of pieces;

[tex]n_y=P(yellow)\times n\\\\=0.45\times 80\\\\=36[/tex]

Hence, the total number of yellow pieces is 36

Answer 2

Final answer:

To find the total number of yellow game pieces in the container, we can use the given probabilities to calculate the number of yellow pieces. By setting up equations based on the information provided, we determine that there are 8 yellow game pieces in the container.

Explanation:

Let's first calculate the total number of game pieces in the container.

Let x be the total number of yellow game pieces. The total number of game pieces is 80.

Given that the probability of choosing a green piece is 0.2 and the probability of choosing a yellow piece is 0.45:

Let the number of green pieces be (80 - x), so 0.2(80 - x) = 4 - 0.2x

Now, we know the number of yellow pieces is x, so 0.45x = 0.45x

Solving the equations, we get x = 8, thus there are 8 yellow game pieces in the container.

Major arc JL measures 300°.

Circle M is shown. Line segments M J and M L are radii. Tangents J K and L K intersect at point K outside of the circle. Major arc J L is 300 degrees.

Which describes triangle JLM?

right
obtuse
scalene
equilateral

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D. Equilateral

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer on edg

The triangle ΔJLM is an equilateral triangle. Then the correct option is D.

What is the triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.

In an isosceles triangle, two angles and their opposite sides are equal.

In an equilateral triangle, all the angles and sides of the triangle are congruent.

Circle M is shown. Line segments MJ and ML are radii.

Tangents JK and LK intersect at point K outside the circle.

Major arc JL is 300 degrees.

Then the measure of the minor arc will be

Major arc + minor arc = 360°

       300° + minor arc = 360°

                   Minor arc = 60°

Then the measure of angle ∠MLJ will be

Minor arc = ∠LMJ = 60°

Then the sides MJ and ML congruent, then their opposite angles are also congruent.

∠MJL = ∠MLJ

Then the measure of the angle ∠MLJ will be

∠MJL + ∠MLJ + ∠LMJ = 180

   ∠MLJ + ∠MLJ + 60° = 180°

                        2∠MLJ = 120°

                          ∠MLJ = 60°

All the angles of the triangle are congruent.

Then the correct option is D.

Answers

Alright!

In order to properly compare these numbers, they need to look the same!

Lets change 2 8/24 into a decimal.

To do this, we need to convert it into an improper fraction

Follow these steps:

[tex]2 \frac{8}{24} \\[/tex]

We multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator (24) and then add the numerator (8). The improper fraction will keep the same denominator (24) at the end.

2 × 24 = 48

48 + 8 = 56

[tex]\frac{56}{24}[/tex]

Now, lets use a calculator to see what 56/24 is!

56 ÷ 24 = 2.33

The general manager of a fast food restaurant chain must select 6 restaurants from 11 for a promotional program. How many different possible ways can this selection be done?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This question will be solved using the combination formula which is nCr because the order is unimportant and we need the selection.

11C6

11!/(11-6)!*6!

= 462

Therefore the manager can select the restaurant in 462 ways.

Answer:

462

Step-by-step explanation:

There 6 slots available to fill in the restaurants options

- For the 1st slot, there are 11 ways to choose

- For the 2nd slot, there are 10 ways to choose

- For the 3rd slot, there are 9

- For the 4th slot, there are 8

- For the 5th slot, there are 7

- For the last 6th, there are 6 ways

So in total there would be 11*10*9*8*7*6 = 332640 ways to choose. But since the order of these 6 slots don't matter, there are actually 6! = 720 ways to order these 6 slots. So the actual number of possible ways is

332640 / 720 = 462

About 32% of the population in a large region are between the ages of 40 and 65, according to the country's census. However, only 2% of the 2100 employees at a company in the region are between the ages of 40 and 65. Lawyers might argue that if the company hires people regardless of their ages, the distribution of ages would be the same as through they had hired people at random from the surrounding population. Check whether the condoms for using the one proportion z-test are met.

Answers

The conditions for using a one proportion z-test are likely met as the sample of 2100 employees is assumed to be randomly selected, independent, and satisfies the success-failure condition, allowing for comparison of the company's age distribution with the surrounding population.

To check whether the conditions for using a one proportion z-test are met, we need to ensure that the following conditions are satisfied:

1. **Random Sample**: The sample of 2100 employees should be selected randomly from the population.

2. **Independence**: The selection of one employee should not influence the selection of another. This condition is typically assumed to be met if the sample size is less than 10% of the population size.

3. **Success-Failure Condition**: The number of successes (employees aged between 40 and 65) and failures (employees not aged between 40 and 65) in the sample should each be at least 10.

Let's check each condition:

1. **Random Sample**: If the company's hiring process is unbiased and follows fair employment practices, then this condition is likely met.

2. **Independence**: With 2100 employees selected, it's reasonable to assume that this condition is met, especially if the population of potential employees is large.

3. **Success-Failure Condition**: We have:

  - Number of successes: [tex]\(2100 \times 0.02 = 42\)[/tex]

  - Number of failures: [tex]\(2100 - 42 = 2058\)[/tex]

  Both 42 and 2058 are greater than 10, so the success-failure condition is met.

Since all three conditions are satisfied, the company's distribution of ages among its employees can be analyzed using a one proportion z-test to compare it with the population distribution.

The times a fire department takes to arrive at the scene of an emergency are normally distributed with a mean of 6 minutes and a standard deviation of 1 minute. For about what percent of emergencies does the fire department arrive at the scene in between 4 minutes and 8 minutes ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the times a fire department takes to arrive at the scene of an emergency. Since the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 6 minutes

σ = 1 minute

the probability that fire department arrives at the scene in case of an emergency between 4 minutes and 8 minutes is expressed as

P(4 ≤ x ≤ 8)

For x = 4,

z = (4 - 6)/1 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.023

For x = 8

z = (8 - 6)/1 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.98

Therefore,

P(4 ≤ x ≤ 8) = 0.98 - 0.23 = 0.75

The percent of emergencies that the fire department arrive at the scene in between 4 minutes and 8 minutes is

0.75 × 100 = 75%

[tex]0.1m+8-12n=0.1(30)+8-12(\frac{1}{4})\\=3+8-\frac{12}{4}\\=3+8-3\\=8[/tex]

After evaluating the expression the value is 8.

Evaluating the Expression

To evaluate the expression 0.1m + 8 - 12n when m = 30 and n = \frac{1}{4}, we need to follow these steps:

Substitute m and n into the expression:

0.1(30) + 8 - 12 [tex]\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)[/tex]

Calculate 0.1(30):

0.1 [tex]\times[/tex] 30 = 3

Calculate 12[tex]\left(\frac{1}{4}\right):[/tex]

12 [tex]\times \frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 3

Substitute these values back into the expression:

11 - 3 = 8

Thus, the value of the expression is 8.

The slope and the intercept for the lines 2 x minus 5 y = negative 5 and y = two-fifths x + 1 are the same thus the line will coincide so, option A is the correct graph.

What is a graph?

A graph is a structure made up of a collection of things, where some object pairs are conceptually "connected." The items are represented by mathematical abstractions known as vertices, and each pair of connected vertices is referred to as an edge.

Given:

2 x minus 5 y = negative 5 and  y = two-fifths x + 1,

Write the above phrase in mathematical form,

2x - 5y = -5  and y = 2 / 5 x + 1

5y = 2x + 5 and  y = 2 / 5 x + 1

y = 2 / 5 x + 1 and y = 2 / 5 x + 1

As we can see here, the slope and the intercept are the same so, the lines are collinear.

Thus, the line will coincide.

Researchers are investigating whether people who exercise with a training partner have a greater increase, on average, in targeted exercise intensity compared with people who exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed.

Method I: Recruit volunteers who are willing to participate. Randomly assign each participant to exercise with a training partner or to exercise alone.
Method II: Select a random sample of people from all the people who exercise at a community fitness center. Ask each person in the sample whether they use a training partner, and use the response to create the two groups.
(a) For each method, the researchers will record the change in targeted exercise intensity for each person in the investigation. They will compare the mean change in intensity between those who exercise with a training partner and those who do not.

(i) Describe the population of generalization if method I is used. Explain your answer.

(ii) Describe the population of generalization if method II is used. Explain your answer.



(b) Suppose the investigation produces a result that is statistically significant using both methods. What can be concluded if method I is used that cannot be concluded if method II is used? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

1 - If method I is used, population of generalization will include all those people who may have varying exercising habits or routines.  They may or may not have a regular excersing habit.  In his case sample is taken from a more diverse population

2 - Population of generalization will include people who will have similar excersing routines and habits if method II is used since sample is choosen from a specific population

Step-by-step explanation:

Past excercising habits may affect the change in intensity to a targeted excersise in different manner. So in method I a greater diversity is included and result of excersing with or without a trainer will account for greater number of variables than method II.

Final answer:

Method I involves randomized assignment and its generalization population is those willing to participate in such a study. Method II samples a fitness center population and cannot isolate causality.

Explanation:

(i) Method I uses a randomized control trial, where volunteers are randomly assigned to exercise either with a partner or alone. The population of generalization is all people willing to participate in such a study, which likely skews towards those who are more interested in exercise and possibly more health-conscious.

(ii) Method II uses a random sample from a community fitness center, allowing the researchers to control less for participant choice as they directly ask each person about their workout habits. The population of generalization is all people who exercise at a community fitness center.

(b) If the results of the investigation are statistically significant using method I, we can conclude that exercising with a training partner causes a greater increase in targeted exercise intensity, due to the random assignment removing confounding variables. This conclusion can not be drawn using method II because it is observational and not experimental.
