Ionizing radiation is being given increasing attention as a method for preserving horticultural products. A study reports that 153 of 180 irradiated garlic bulbs were marketable (no external sprouting, rotting, or softening) 240 days after treatment, whereas only 117 of 180 untreated bulbs were marketable after this length of time.

Does this data suggest that ionizing radiation is beneficial as far as marketability is concerned? Use a=.05.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, there is  enough evidence to support the claim that ionizing radiation is beneficial in terms of marketability.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between proportions.

The claim is that ionizing radiation is beneficial in terms of marketability.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi_1-\pi_2=0\\\\H_a:\pi_1-\pi_2> 0[/tex]

Being π1: the true proportion of treated bulbs that can be comercialized after 240 days, and π2: the true proportion of untreated bulbs that can be comercialized after 240 days.

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample 1, of size n1=180 has a proportion of p1=0.85.

[tex]p_1=X_1/n_1=153/180=0.85[/tex]

The sample 2, of size n2=180 has a proportion of p2=0.65.

[tex]p_2=X_2/n_2=117/180=0.65[/tex]

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.2.

[tex]p_d=p_1-p_2=0.85-0.65=0.2[/tex]

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

[tex]p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{153+117}{180+180}=\dfrac{270}{360}=0.75[/tex]

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.75*0.25}{180}+\dfrac{0.75*0.25}{180}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{0.001+0.001}=\sqrt{0.002}=0.0456[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p_d-(\pi_1-\pi_2)}{s_{p1-p2}}=\dfrac{0.2-0}{0.0456}=\dfrac{0.2}{0.0456}=4.382[/tex]

This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a z-table):

[tex]P-value=P(t>4.382)=0.000008[/tex]

As the P-value (0.000008) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is  enough evidence to support the claim that ionizing radiation is beneficial in terms of marketability.

Answer 2

Final answer:

The observed marketable rate of irradiated garlic bulbs suggests that ionizing radiation is beneficial to their marketability compared to untreated bulbs, and this could be statistically tested for significance.

Explanation:

The student's data indicates that irradiated garlic bulbs have a significantly higher rate of remaining marketable (85%) after 240 days compared to unirradiated bulbs (65%). Using a significance level of α = 0.05, we can infer a positive effect of ionizing radiation on the marketability of garlic bulbs. To statistically confirm this observation, one could perform a hypothesis test (such as a chi-squared test for independence) to determine if the difference in marketability between the treated and untreated groups is significant.

On the standard coordinate grid at initial moment, ship Tiger is at the position (0, 795), ship Lion is at the position (985, 0). Tiger sails along the straight line to the position (1229, 0). At the same time, Lion sails along the straight line to the position (0, 1039). Lion will reach her destination in one hour, Tiger – in two hours.
a) Find the point of intersection of the paths of the ships.
b) At what time from the moment of departure each of the ships will pass the point of intersection of the paths.
c) At what time (in minutes after departure) the distance between Lion and Tiger will be the shortest?
d) What is the shortest distance between Lion and Tiger?
e) What will be the positions of both ships at the moment when the distance between them is the shortest?

Answers

Answer:

A) (380, 640)

B) ship Tiger: Time = 0.96 hours

Ship Lion: Time = 0.62 hours

C) Ship Tiger = 57.6 minute

Ship Lion = 37.2 minutes

D) Distance = 533 metres

E) Ship Tiger (0, 795)

Ship Lion (1039,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can form the equation of the straight line from the initial and final position of the two ships. Using the general linear equation Y = mx + c. that is

Ship Tiger

Initial position (0, 795)

Final position (1229, 0)

M = (0 - 1229)/795

M = - 1.55

1229 = -1.55(0) + C

C = 1229

Hence the equation of the line for ship Tiger will be

Y = - 1.55x + 1229 ...... (1)

Ship Lion

Initial position (985, 0).

Final position (0, 1039).

M = 1039/ -985 = - 1.05

0 = -1.05(985) + C

0 = - 1039 + C

C = 1039

The equation of the line for ship Lion will be

Y = - 1.05(x) + 1039..... (2)

At the point of intersection of the paths of the ships, they will have common Y and X. Hence equation 1 is equal to equation 2

- 1.55x + 1229 = -1.05(x) + 1039

1.55(x) - 1.05(x) = 1229 - 1039

0.5x = 190

X = 190/0.5 = 380

Substitute x in equation 1

Y = -1.55(380) + 1229

Y = -589 + 1229

Y = 640

Therefore the point of intersection of the paths of the ships is (380, 640)

B) given that Lion will reach her destination in one hour, Tiger – in two hours.

Ship Tiger

distance = root(795^2 + 1229^2)

Distance = 1463.7

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 1463.7/2 = 731.9 m/s

Distance at the point of intersection will be

Distance = root(380^2 + (640-1229)^2)

Distance = root(144400 + 346921)

Distance = 700.9

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance /speed

Time = 700.9/731.9

Time = 0.96 hours

Ship Lion

distance = root(985^2 + 1039^2)

Distance = 1431.69

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 1431.69/1 = 1431.69

Distance at the point of intersection will be

Distance = root((380 - 985)^2 + (640)^2)

Distance = root(775625)

Distance = 880.7 meters

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance /speed

Time = 880.7/1431.69

Time = 0.615 hours

C) the time in minute the distance between Lion and Tiger will be the shortest will be

Ship Tiger: 0.96 × 60 = 57.6 minute

Ship Lion: 0.62 × 60 = 36.9 minutes

D) The shortest distance between Lion and Tiger will be achieved by using pythagorean theorem for the the distances at the point of intersection

Root (880.7^2 - 700.9^2)

Distance = 533 metres

E) the positions of both ships at the moment when the distance between them is the shortest will be the initial position of both ships

That is

Ship Tiger

Initial position (0, 795)

Ship Lion

Initial position (985, 0).

[tex](0.531-0.45) + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.531(1-0.531)}{2000} +\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{2000}}=0.112[/tex]  

And the best option for this case would be:

A. 0.050 to 0.112.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

[tex]p_A[/tex] represent the real population proportion of who support the cnadite for the northern half state  

[tex]\hat p_A =\frac{1062}{2000}=0.531[/tex] represent the estimated proportion of who support the candidate for the northern half state

Just the distributive property to write an expression that is equivalent to 10 + 15x

Answers

Answer:

5 ( 2 + 3x )

Step-by-step explanation:

1st step: Take the GCF of the equation 10+15x

2nd step: GCF means, taking the Greatest Common Factor out of BOTH the numbers in an equation. (GCF is 5 in this case.)

3rd step: Divide by the GCF that you got. (In this case, you have 10 +15x. You need to do 10/5, and 15x /5. (Note that ANYTHING multiplied by "x" can also be divided just like a regular number.)

4th step: Put the the number that you divided with for both numbers OUTSIDE parentheses. (Note in this case it is common.)

5th step: Check your work. PLEASE DO THIS STEP.

Check: 5( 2 + 3x )

5 x 2 = 10

5 x '3x' = 15x

So, the answer for this problem is: 5 ( 2 +3x )

Answer: 5( 2 + 3x)

Hope this helped you understand the basics of disributive property. And if you have another problem just like this, you can use the same rule as shown above. :)

Final answer:

Use the distributive property to factor out a common factor in 10 + 15x to get an equivalent expression.

Explanation:

To write an expression equivalent to 10 + 15x using the distributive property, you can factor out a common factor. Here’s how:

Factor out 5 from 10 and 15x: 10 + 15x = 5(2 + 3x)

Apply the distributive property to get the equivalent expression: 5(2 + 3x) = 5*2 + 5*3x = 10 + 15x

(c)

x = 12

y = 107.447

(d)

x = 1.5

y = 38.747

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use a regressor calculator you will find that

y = 6.542x + 28.933

then for (a)

x = 2

y = 42.019

(b)

x = 3.5

y = 51.833

(c)

x = 12

y = 107.447

(d)

x = 1.5

y = 38.747

Regression equations are used to represent scatter plots

The regression equation is [tex]\^y = 6.54\^x + 28.94[/tex]The predicted values when x = 2, 3.5, 12 and 1.5 are 42.02, 51.83, 107.42 and 38.75

The table is given as:

x | 1 2 3 3 4 6

y | 37 41 51 48 65 69

To determine the regression equation, we make use of an graphing calculator.

From the graphing calculator, we have:

Sum of X = 21 Sum of Y = 311 Mean X = 3.5 Mean Y = 51.8333 Sum of squares (SSX) = 17.5 Sum of products (SP) = 114.5

The regression equation is represented as:

[tex]\^y =b\^x + a[/tex]

Where:

[tex]b = \frac{SP}{SS_x}[/tex] and [tex]a = M_y - bM_x[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]b = \frac{SP}{SS_x}[/tex]

[tex]b = \frac{17.5}{114.5}[/tex]

[tex]b = 6.54[/tex]

[tex]a = M_y - bM_x[/tex]

[tex]a = 51.83 - (6.54*3.5)[/tex]

[tex]a = 28.94[/tex]

Substitute values for (a) and (b) in [tex]\^y =b\^x + a[/tex]

[tex]\^y = 6.54\^x + 28.94[/tex]

The predicted values when x = 2, 3.5, 12 and 1.5 are:

[tex]\^y = 6.54 \times 2 + 28.94 = 42.02[/tex]

[tex]\^y = 6.54 \times 3.5 + 28.94 = 51.83[/tex]

[tex]\^y = 6.54 \times 12 + 28.94 = 107.42[/tex]

[tex]\^y = 6.54 \times 1.5 + 28.94 = 38.75[/tex]

Hence, the predicted values when x = 2, 3.5, 12 and 1.5 are 42.02, 51.83, 107.42 and 38.75

Answers

The probability that the first digit of a three-digit locker combination is less than 3 is 2/9, because there are 2 favorable digits (1 and 2) out of 9 possible non-zero digits, option C.

The question is asking about the probability that the first digit of a three-digit locker combination is less than 3, given that none of the digits can be 0. Since the digits can range from 1 to 9 (inclusive), there are a total of 9 possible digits for the first position. We are interested in the digits 1 and 2, which are the only digits less than 3. Therefore, there are 2 favorable outcomes.

To calculate the probability, we use the formula:

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes

In this case, the probability is 2 (favorable outcomes) divided by 9 (possible outcomes), which simplifies to:

Probability = 2/9, option C.

The lengths of the three sides of the triangle are [tex]\frac{3}{x-4}[/tex], [tex]\frac{16-x}{x^{2}-2 x-8}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{x+5}{x+2}[/tex]

We need to determine the perimeter of the triangle.

Perimeter of the triangle:

The perimeter of the triangle can be determined by adding all the three sides.

Thus, we have;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{3}{x-4}+\frac{16-x}{x^{2}-2 x-8}+\frac{x+5}{x+2}[/tex]

Factoring the term [tex]x^2-2x-8[/tex], we get, [tex](x-4)(x+2)[/tex]

Substituting, we get;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{3}{x-4}+\frac{16-x}{(x-4)(x+2)}+\frac{x+5}{x+2}[/tex]

Taking LCM , we have;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{3(x+2)+16-x+(x+5)(x-4)}{(x-4)(x+2)}[/tex]

Simplifying the numerator, we get;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{3x+6+16-x+x^2-4x+5x-20}{(x-4)(x+2)}[/tex]

Adding the like terms in the numerator, we get;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{x^2+3x+2}{(x-4)(x+2)}[/tex]

Factoring the numerator, we get;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{(x+2)(x+1)}{(x-4)(x+2)}[/tex]

Cancelling the common terms, we have;

[tex]Perimeter=\frac{x+1}{x-4}[/tex]

Thus, the perimeter of the triangle is [tex]\frac{x+1}{x-4}[/tex]

Consider the following least squares specification between test scores and the student - teacher ratio: TestScore = 557.8 + 36.42 In (Income). According to this equation, a 1% increase income is associated with an increase in test scores of :A. 36.42 points B. cannot be determined from the information given here C. 0.36 points D. 557.8 points

Answers

Answer:

[tex] Test score_i= 557.8 +36.42 Income[/tex]

If we increase the income by 1% that means that the new income would be 1.01 the before one and if we replace this we got:

[tex] Test score_f = 557.8  + (36.42* 1.01 Income)= 557.8 +36.7842 Income[/tex]

And the net increase can be founded like this:

[tex] Test score_f -Tet score_i = 557.8 +36.7842 Income- [557.8 +36.42 Income] = 36.7842 Income -36.42 Income = 0.3642[/tex]

So then the net increase would be:

C. 0.36 points

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following linear relationship obtained from least squares between test scores and the student-teacher ratio:

[tex] Test score_i= 557.8 +36.42 Income[/tex]

If we increase the income by 1% that means that the new income would be 1.01 the before one and if we replace this we got:

[tex] Test score_f = 557.8  + (36.42* 1.01 Income)= 557.8 +36.7842 Income[/tex]

And the net increase can be founded like this:

[tex] Test score_f -Tet score_i = 557.8 +36.7842 Income- [557.8 +36.42 Income] = 36.7842 Income -36.42 Income = 0.3642[/tex]

So then the net increase would be:

C. 0.36 points

Final answer:

For a 1% increase in income, the test scores would increase by approximately 0.36 points based on the given regression equation. This is calculated by multiplying the coefficient of the natural logarithm of income, 36.42, with the decimal value of the percent change in income, which is 0.01.

Explanation:

The equation provided is a linear regression equation where the dependent variable, TestScore, is predicted based on the natural logarithm of the independent variable, Income. The coefficient of 36.42 in front of the natural logarithm indicates how much the dependent variable changes for a 1% change in the independent variable. To find the contribution to the test scores for a 1% increase in income, we need to use the fact that the derivative of the natural logarithm, Ln(x), with respect to x is 1/x, which means a change in income translates directly to the change in test score when multiplied by the coefficient.

So, for a small percentage change in income, approximately 1%, the corresponding change in TestScore is 36.42 multiplied by the percentage change in decimal form. Specifically, 0.01 × 36.42 = 0.3642 or approximately 0.36 points.

Answers

Boxplots clearly show the five-number summary of a data set. Therefore, option D and E are the correct answer.

What is histogram?

A histogram is a visual representation of statistical data that makes use of rectangles to illustrate the frequency of data items in a series of equal-sized numerical intervals. The independent variable is represented along the horizontal axis and the dependent variable is plotted along the vertical axis in the most popular type of histogram.

A) A histogram has an appearance similar to a vertical bar chart, but there are no gaps between the bars.

B) Both dot plots and stem plots can show symmetry, gaps, clusters, and outliers.

C) A bar chart or pie chart is often used to display categorical data. These types of displays, however, are not appropriate for quantitative data. Quantitative data is often displayed using either a histogram, dot plot, or a stem-and-leaf plot.

D) The advantage of a stem leaf diagram is it gives a concise representation of data. The advantage of a frequency histogram is, that it is visually strong. Histograms are usually preferable to stem and leaf diagrams in large data sets.

E) A box and whisker plot—also called a box plot—displays the five-number summary of a set of data. The five-number summary is the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum. In a box plot, we draw a box from the first quartile to the third quartile.

Therefore, option D and E are the correct answer.

Among the listed statements, options C and E are true. Other statements about histograms, dotplots, and stemplots have inaccuracies.

Explanation:

Let's go through each of the statements:

(A) Histograms have gaps between each bar: This statement is false as histograms present continuous data where the bars are adjacent to each other with no gaps. It's used for displaying large, continuous, quantitative datasets.

(B) Dotplots do not provide enough information to determine if there are outliers in the data: We can't completely conclude this as it would depend on the nature of the data and how it's presented. Dotplots can sometimes show outliers but they are not the most efficient graph for this purpose.

(C) Bar graphs can display both quantitative and categorical data: This is true. Bar graphs are very versatile and can represent both types of data. They compare categories of data with either horizontal or vertical bars.

(D) Stemplots are the best graphs for displaying data sets with two variables: This is false. Stemplots are good for displaying a single variable and summarizing the shape of the dataset.

(E) Boxplots clearly show the five-number summary of a data set: This is true. Boxplots are an excellent way to display the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile and maximum values of a data set.

A player pays $2 to randomly draw a card from a standard deck of playing cards. He wins $10 if he draws a black 2, and $5 if a 10 or ace is picked. Determine the probability of each possible value of X (the amount won or lost) to complete the probability distribution for the game. Give each value as a fraction with a denominator of 52.

Answers

Answer:

1/52

2/52

4/52

Step-by-step explanation:

If you randomly draw a card from the standard deck the drawing an specific card will have a probability of 1/52

If you  draw a black 2 it can be from Spades 2,  or Clubs 2,  therefore you have only two options, and the probability is  2/52

If you draw an ace it can be spades, clubs, hearts or diamonds, so the probability would be 4/52

Suppose that the population of the scores of all high school seniors that took the SAT-M (SAT math) test this year follows a Normal distribution, with mean μ and standard deviation σ = 100. You read a report that says, "On the basis of a simple random sample of 100 high school seniors that took the SAT-M test this year, a confidence interval for μ is 512.00 ± 25.76." The confidence level for this interval is

Answers

Answer:

The confidence level for this interval is 99%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error M has the following equation.

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

z is related to the confidence level.

In this problem:

[tex]M = 25.76, \sigma = 100, n = 100[/tex]

So

[tex]25.76 = z*\frac{100}{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]

[tex]10z = 25.76[/tex]

[tex]z = 2.576[/tex]

Looking at the z table, [tex]z = 2.576[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.995.

So the confidence level is:

[tex]1 - 2(1 - 0.995) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex]

The confidence level for this interval is 99%.

A regular heptagon has a side of 13.9 and an apothem of 14.4. Find the area of the heptagon. Round your answer to the nearest WHOLE NUMBER.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A regular heptagon, a heptagon has 7 sides and since it is a regular heptagon, then, it has equal sides

n = 7, number of sides

Each sides of the heptagon has a length of 13.9

s= 13.9

The apothem is 14.4

Apothem is a line from the centre of a regular polygon at right angles to any of its sides.

r = 14.4

The area of a regular heptagon can be calculated using

Area = ½ n•s•r

Where n is the number of sides

s- is the length of the sides

r Is the apothem

Then,

A = ½ × 7 × 13.9 × 14.4

A = 700.56 square units

To the nearest whole number, I.e no decimal points

A = 701 Square units

Another sample of 15 large cars were subjected to the same test, and 5 of them were totaled. Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the prop

Answers

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion is [-0.017 , 0.697].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a simple random sample of 12 small cars were subjected to a head-on collision at 40 miles per hour. Of them 8 were "totaled," meaning that the cost of repairs is greater than the value of the car.

Another sample of 15 large cars were subjected to the same test, and 5 of them were totaled.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the difference between population proportion is given by;

                             P.Q. = [tex]\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\hat p_1[/tex] = sample proportion of small cars that were totaled = [tex]\frac{8}{12}[/tex] = 0.67

[tex]\hat p_2[/tex] = sample proportion of large cars that were totaled = [tex]\frac{5}{15}[/tex] = 0.33

[tex]n_1[/tex] = sample of small cars = 12

[tex]n_2[/tex] = sample of large cars = 15

[tex]p_1[/tex] = population proportion of small cars that are totaled

[tex]p_2[/tex] = population proportion of large cars that were totaled

Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used Two-sample z proportion statistics.

So, 95% confidence interval for the difference between population population, ([tex]p_1-p_2[/tex]) is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95  {As the critical value of z at 2.5% level

                                                    of significance are -1.96 & 1.96}  

P(-1.96 < [tex]\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex] < 1.96) = 0.95

P( [tex]-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex] < [tex]{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}[/tex] < [tex]1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

P( [tex](\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex] < [tex]p_1-p_2[/tex] < [tex](\hat p_1-\hat p_2)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for [tex]p_1-p_2[/tex] = [[tex](\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex] , [tex](\hat p_1-\hat p_2)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex]]

= [[tex](0.67-0.33)-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.67(1-0.67)}{12}+\frac{0.33(1-0.33)}{15} } }[/tex] , [tex](0.67-0.33)+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.67(1-0.67)}{12}+\frac{0.33(1-0.33)}{15} } }[/tex]]

= [-0.017 , 0.697]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the difference between proportions l and 2 is [-0.017 , 0.697].

A 5-card hand is dealt from a perfectly shuffled deck. Define the events: A: the hand is a four of a kind (all four cards of one rank plus a 5th card). B: at least one of the cards in the hand is an ace Are the events A and B independent? Prove your answer by showing that one of the conditions for independence is either true or false.

Answers

In a hand of 5 cards, you want 4 of them to be of the same rank, and the fifth can be any of the remaining 48 cards. So if the rank of the 4-of-a-kind is fixed, there are [tex]\binom44\binom{48}1=48[/tex] possible hands. To account for any choice of rank, we choose 1 of the 13 possible ranks and multiply this count by [tex]\binom{13}1=13[/tex]. So there are 624 possible hands containing a 4-of-a-kind. Hence A occurs with probability

[tex]\dfrac{\binom{13}1\binom44\binom{48}1}{\binom{52}5}=\dfrac{624}{2,598,960}\approx0.00024[/tex]

There are 4 aces in the deck. If exactly 1 occurs in the hand, the remaining 4 cards can be any of the remaining 48 non-ace cards, contributing [tex]\binom41\binom{48}4=778,320[/tex] possible hands. Exactly 2 aces are drawn in [tex]\binom42\binom{48}3=103,776[/tex] hands. And so on. This gives a total of

[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{a=1}^4\binom4a\binom{48}{5-a}=886,656[/tex]

possible hands containing at least 1 ace, and hence B occurs with probability

[tex]\dfrac{\sum\limits_{a=1}^4\binom4a\binom{48}{5-a}}{\binom{52}5}=\dfrac{18,472}{54,145}\approx0.3412[/tex]

The product of these probability is approximately 0.000082.

A and B are independent if the probability of both events occurring simultaneously is the same as the above probability, i.e. [tex]P(A\cap B)=P(A)P(B)[/tex]. This happens if

the hand has 4 aces and 1 non-ace, orthe hand has a non-ace 4-of-a-kind and 1 ace

The above "sub-events" are mutually exclusive and share no overlap. There are 48 possible non-aces to choose from, so the first sub-event consists of 48 possible hands. There are 12 non-ace 4-of-a-kinds and 4 choices of ace for the fifth card, so the second sub-event has a total of 12*4 = 48 possible hands. So [tex]A\cap B[/tex] consists of 96 possible hands, which occurs with probability

[tex]\dfrac{96}{\binom{52}5}\approx0.0000369[/tex]

and so the events A and B are NOT independent.

Final answer:

The events A and B in the given scenario are not independent. This determination is based on the principle of sampling without replacement, where drawing a four of a kind is likely to influence the probability of drawing an ace.

Explanation:

Two events A: the hand is a four of a kind, and B: at least one of the cards in the hand is an ace, are defined in a situation where a 5-card hand is dealt from a perfectly shuffled 52-card deck. To determine if these events are independent, we need to check if the occurrence of event A affects the occurrence of event B.

In sampling with replacement, each member of a population is replaced after it is picked. However, dealing a 5-card hand from a deck of cards is an example of sampling without replacement, meaning that each card may only be chosen once, causing the events to be considered as not independent.

It is highly probable that drawing a four of a kind will influence the likelihood of drawing an ace. Hence, the events A and B are not independent.

. If $200 is invested at the end of each month into an account that has an APR of 3.4% compounded monthly, what will the balance be after 15 years?

Answers

Answer:

$332.82

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the compound interest formula provided to solve this:

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

P = initial balance

r = interest rate (decimal)

n = number of times compounded annually

t = time

First, we change 3.4% into a decimal:

3.4% -> [tex]\frac{3.4}{100}[/tex] -> 0.034

Since the interest is compounded monthly, we will use 12 for n. Lets plug in the values now:

[tex]A=200(1+\frac{0.034}{12})^{12(15)}[/tex]

[tex]A=332.82[/tex]

Your balance after 15 years will be $332.82

how many 2/3s are in 3/8

Answers

Final answer:

To determine how many 2/3s fit into 3/8, multiply 3/8 by the reciprocal of 2/3, resulting in 9/16, which is less than 1. Thus, there are around 0.5625 of 2/3 in 3/8.

Explanation:

To find how many 2/3s are in 3/8, we're essentially asking how to divide 3/8 by 2/3. This is done by multiplying 3/8 by the reciprocal of 2/3, which is 3/2:

Dividing fractions: (3/8) ÷ (2/3) = (3/8) × (3/2)

Multiplying fractions: (3 × 3) / (8 × 2) = 9/16

To simplify this and understand the proportion, we need to compare the fraction 9/16 to a whole number. Since 9/16 is definitely less than 1, there is less than one 'whole' 2/3 in 3/8. Therefore, there are somewhat around 0.5625 of 2/3 in 3/8 (since 9 divided by 16 equals 0.5625).

This cake was sliced parallel to the base. What shape will the cross-section make?

Answers

The shape of the cross-section of the cake is a square.

What is cross-section?

In geometry and science, a cross section is the non-empty intersection of a solid body in three-dimensional space with a plane, or the analog in higher- dimensional spaces. Cutting an object into slices creates many parallel cross-sections.

Given that, a cake was sliced parallel to the base, we need to find the shape of the cross section,

we see that the shape of the cake is a square base pyramid,

That means if we cut it horizontally parallel to its base, we will always find a square,

Therefore, the cross-section is a square.

When slicing a cake parallel to its base, the resulting cross-section will be a circle, mirroring the shape of the base of the cake.

The question pertains to the shape of the cross-section resulting from slicing a cake parallel to its base. When you slice a three-dimensional object like a cake in this way, the cross-section will mirror the shape of the object's base. As the base of a cake is typically a circle, the cross-section in this case will be a circular shape. To understand this better, imagine a cylinder, which is similar to a circular cake. When you slice a cylinder parallel to its base, you always obtain a circular cross-section. This concept is consistent across different objects, given that the slice is parallel to the base, such as slicing a cylindrical polony or cutting a slice of brick-shaped bread.

UCF believes that the average time someone spends in the gym is 56 minutes. The university statistician takes a random sample of 32 gym goers and finds the average time of the sample was 50 minutes. Assume it is known the standard deviation of time all people spend in the gym is 8 minutes. What conclusion can the university statistician make?

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that the average time someone spends in the gym is different from 56 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that UCF believes that the average time someone spends in the gym is 56 minutes.

The university statistician takes a random sample of 32 gym goers and finds the average time of the sample was 50 minutes. Assume it is known the standard deviation of time all people spend in the gym is 8 minutes.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = population average time someone spends in the gym

SO, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 56 minutes   {means that the average time someone spends in the gym is 56 minutes}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu\neq[/tex] 56 minutes   {means that the average time someone spends in the gym is different from 56 minutes}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z test statistics as we know about the population standard deviation;

                         T.S.  = [tex]\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where,  [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample average time someone takes in the gym = 50 min

              [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation = 8 minutes

              n = sample of gym goers = 32

So, test statistics  =   [tex]\frac{50-56}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{32} } }[/tex]

                               =  -4.243

Since in the question we are not given the level of significance so we assume it to b 5%. Now at 5% significance level, the z table gives critical value between -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test. Since our test statistics does not lie within the range of critical values of z so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the average time someone spends in the gym is different from 56 minutes.
