The local weather forecaster says she can predict whether it will rain with 80% accuracy which is equivalent to a 0.8 chance of being correct. If she forecasts rain 160 times, how many of these times would you expect she is wrong?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

You should expect her to be wrong 32 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each forecast that she makes, there are only two possible outcomes. Either she is correct, or she is not. The probability of she being correct on a forecast is independent of other forecasts. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

0.8 chance of being correct.

So 1 - 0.8 = 0.2 change of being wrong, which means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]

160 forecasts:

This means that [tex]n = 160[/tex]

How many of these times would you expect she is wrong?

[tex]E(X) = np = 160*0.2 = 32[/tex]

You should expect her to be wrong 32 times.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the width is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not finding the hypotenuse and we are given it, we have to rearrange the a² + b² = c² equation because that equation is to find the hypotenuse of a right - angled triangle and we are not asked to find the hypotenuse but the width so

a² + b² = c²

→ Substitute in the values

( √3 )² + b² = 2²

→ Simplify equation

3 + b² = 4

→ Minus 3 from both sides to isolate b²

b² = 1

→ Square root both sides to isolate b

b = 1

Noah drew a triangle so that all the sides are 5 inches long. He wants to draw a new triangle, but increase the length of each side by x inches. The perimeter of the new triangle is 24 inches.

Answers

Complete question:

Noah drew a triangle so that all the sides are 5 inches long. He wants to draw a new triangle, but increase the length of each side by x inches. The perimeter of the new triangle is 24 inches. Find the value of x and length of the new side.

Answer:

x = 3 inches

The length of the new sides of the triangle is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If each of the sides of the original triangle is 5 inches, then it is an equilateral triangle.

Let the length of each of the side of the new triangle be, A, B and C.

A = 5 + x

B = 5 + x

C = 5 + x

A + B + C = 24

(5 + x) + (5 + x)  + (5 + x) = 24

15 + 3x = 24

3x = 24 -15

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3

A = B = C = 5 + x = 5 + 3 = 8 inches

The length of the new sides of the triangle is 8 inches

A concrete planter is formed from a square-based pyramid that was inverted and placed inside a cube.

Answers

This question is incomplete and it lacks the attached diagram of the square based pyramid. Find attached to this answer, the square based pyramid.

Correct Question

A concrete planter is formed from a square-based pyramid that was inverted and placed inside a cube.

A. What is the slant height of the pyramid?

B. What is the surface area of the composite figure?

HINT: The surface area consists of lateral faces of the inside of the inverted pyramid and the remaining 5 faces of the cube.

C. How many cubic yards of concrete are needed to make the planter?

Answer:

A. The slant height of the pyramid = 2.24 yards.

B. The surface area of the composite figure = 12.94 square yards.

C. The cubic yards of concrete are needed to make the planter = 2.67 cubic yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. What is the slant height of the pyramid?

To calculate the Slant height of a pyramid we make use of the Pythagoras Theorem which is given as:

a² + b² = c²

Where a = Height of the square pyramid represent by h

b = radius of the square pyramid represented by r

c = Slant height of the square pyramid represented by s

Therefore, we have

h² + r² = s²

Looking at the attached diagram, we are given the side length = 2 yards.

The radius of the square based pyramid = side length ÷ 2

= 2÷ 2 = 1 yard.

The height of a square based pyramid = 2 yards

Since , h² + r² = s²

The slant height of the square pyramid is calculated as :

√h² + r² = s

√(2² + 1²) = s

√5 = s

s = 2.24 yards

B. What is the surface area of the composite figure?

We were given hints in the question that the the surface area consists of lateral faces of the inside of the inverted pyramid and the remaining 5 faces of the cube.

Step 1

We find the Lateral area of the faces of the insides of the inverted pyramid

We have 4 faces, Hence,

The formula is given as

a × √( a² + 4h²

a = 2 yards

h = 2 yards

So, = 2 × √( 2² + 4 ×2²

The Lateral area of the faces = 8.94 square yards.

Step 2

Area of the 5 faces of the cube

= a²

Where a = side length = 2 yards

= 2²

= 4 square yards.

Step 3

Therefore, surface area of the composite figure = 8.94 square yards + 4 square yards

= 12.94 square yards.

C. How many cubic yards of concrete are needed to make the planter?

This is calculated by find the Volume of the Square based pyramid.

The formula is given as :

V = (1/3)a²h

Where a = side length = 2 yards

h = height of the square based pyramid = 2 yards

V = 1/3 × 2² × 2

V = 2.67 cubic yards

Anthony played a dart game using the dartboard shown above. Anthony had 5 throws and then added his points. He hit the -6 twice, the 10 once, the 2 once, and the -4 once. How many points did Anthony earn?

Answers

Answer:

- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of points earned by Anthony is the sum of all the individual points earned from the 5 throws. Considering that he had -6 on 2 throws, 10 from one throw, 2 and the -4 from the final set of throws, the total is equivalent to

= -6 - 6 + 10 + 2 -4

Kadesha says that the triangles represent a translation. On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (1, negative 1), (1, negative 4), (4, negative 4). Triangle A prime B prime C prime has points (1, 5), (1, 1), and (4, 1). Which explains whether Kadesha is correct?
A) Kadesha is correct because triangle ABC is the pre-image and triangle A prime B prime C prime is the image.
B) Kadesha is correct because each point in triangle ABC moves five units up.
C) Kadesha is not correct because the number of units between points A and B is different than those between points A primeand B prime.
D) Kadesha is not correct because a translation is a horizontal movement.

Answers

Answer: Option C is most Appropriate.

C) Kadesha is not correct because the number of units between points A and B is different than those between points A primeand B prime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of vertices of ΔABC are =A(1,-1), B(1,-4),C(4,-4)

 Coordinates of vertices of ΔA'B'C' are =A'(1,5), B'(1,1),C(4,1)

Suppose, Preimage =ΔABC

Image =ΔA'B'C'

If you will find distance between two vertices of Both the triangles or length of sides of triangles

Kadesha is not correct because the number of units between points A and B is different than those between points A prime and B prime. Option (C) is the correct answer.

What is a graph?

"A graph can be defined as a pictorial representation or a diagram that represents data or values in an organized manner. The points on the graph often represent the relationship between two or more things".

For the given situation,

The triangle ABC has points A(1,-1), B(1,-4), C(4,-4)

The triangle A'B'C' has points A'(1,5), B'(1,1), C'(4,1)

Plot these two triangles in the graph as shown below.

The graph shows the relation between the triangle ABC and A'B'C'.

Both the triangles are separated by different units and are not images of one another.

Hence we can conclude that Kadesha is not correct because the number of units between points A and B is different than those between points A prime and B prime. Option (C) is the correct answer.

A spinner numbered 1 through 12 is spun. Find the probability that
the number spun is an 11 given that the number spun was an odd
number. Please write your answer as a fraction.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event of getting an odd number.

P(A) be the probability of getting an odd number.

Total odd numbers here are 6 i.e. [tex]\{1,3,5,7,9,11\}[/tex]

Here, total numbers in the game are 12 i.e [tex]\{1,2,3,....,12\}[/tex].

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]

[tex]P(A) = \dfrac{6}{12}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Let B be the event of getting 11.

P(B) be the probability of getting 11.

Total number of possible cases is 1.

[tex]P(B) = \dfrac{1}{12}[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability that we get 11 and an odd number.

Possible number of cases = 1

[tex]P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{12}[/tex]

P(B/A) is the probability that we get an 11 given that it is an odd number.

[tex]P(B/A) = \dfrac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{12}}{\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Hence, P(B/A) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Answer:

The probability in fraction is [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of outcomes is = 12

Now we have to find the probability that spun number is 11.

That means favorable outcome is 1.

In this case, the probability can be determined by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total outcome. Accordingly, the total outcomes are 12 and favorable outcome is 1.  

[tex]\text{P(The spun number is 11)}= \frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{total outcomes}} \\\text{P(The spun number is 11)}= \frac{1}{12} \ (in \ fraction)\\\text{P(The spun number is 11)} = 0.083 \ (in \ decimal)[/tex]

you are packing clothes for vacation and don’t want to take any button down shirts. You randomly choose three shirts from a jar containing three T-shirts, three polo shirts, and four button downs.

a) what is the probability that the first three shirts are button downs when you replace each shirt before choosing the next one?
b) what is the probability that the first three shirts are button downs when you do not replace each shirt before choosing the next one?

Answers

a) Because each pick is independent (we pick and then replace), we just have to find the probability of picking it out once, then cube that. This probability is 4/(3+3+4)=2/5. So, it is 8/125.

b) If we replace it, then we can do it in a strategic way:

The probability of picking it out the first time is 2/5. Now, there are 3 button downs and 9 shirts total.

The second time: 3/9=1/3

Now there are 2 and 8

Third time: 2/8=1/4.

The final probability is 2/5*1/3*1/4=1/30

Two opposing opinions were shown to a random sample of 1,500 buyers of a particular political news app in the United States. The opinions, shown in a random order to each buyer, were as follows:

Opinion A: Improving the healthcare system is more important than improving the education system.

Opinion B: Improving the education system is more important than improving the healthcare system.

Buyers were to choose the opinion that most closely reflected their own. If they felt neutral on the topics, they were to choose a third option of "Neutral."

The outcomes were as follows:
39% chose Opinion A, 54% chose Opinion B, and 7% chose "Neutral."

Part A: Create and interpret a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of all US buyers of this particular app who would have chosen Opinion B. (5 points)

Part B: The number of buyers that chose Opinion B and the number of buyers that did not choose Opinion B are both greater than 10. Why must this inference condition be met? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

A) 98% Confidence interval for the proportion of all US buyers of this particular app who would have chosen Opinion B

= (0.51, 0.57)

This means that the true proportion of all thay would chose opinion B can take on values between the range of (0.51, 0.57)

B) For the confidence interval obtained to be valid, the conditions stated must be satisfied and for the sampling distribution to be approximately normal, the number of buyers that chose Opinion B and the number of buyers that did not choose Opinion B must both be greater than 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion of all US buyers of this particular app who would have chosen Opinion B = 0.54

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 98% confidence interval for sample size of 1500 is obtained from the z-tables.

Critical value = 2.33

Standard error = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]

p = sample proportion = 0.54

n = sample size = 1500

σₓ = √(0.54×0.46/1500) = 0.0128685664 = 0.01287

98% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.54 ± (2.33 × 0.01287)

CI = 0.54 ± 0.02998)

98% CI = (0.51, 0.57)

98% Confidence interval = (0.51, 0.57)

B) The number of buyers that chose Opinion B and the number of buyers that did not choose Opinion B are both greater than 10. Why must this inference condition be met?

For this confidence interval to be obtained using sample data, a couple of conditions are necessary to be satisfied. They include;

- The sample data must have been obtained using a random sampling technique.

- The sampling distribution must be normal or approximately normal.

- The variables of the sample data must be independent of each other.

On the second point, the condition for a binomial distribution to approximate a normal distribution is that

np ≥ 10

and n(1-p) ≥ 10

The quantity np is the actual sample mean which is the actual number of buyers that chose Opinion B while n(1-p) is the number of buyers that did not chose Opinion B.

For the confidence interval obtained to be valid, the conditions stated must be satisfied and for the sampling distribution to be approximately normal, the number of buyers that chose Opinion B and the number of buyers that did not choose Opinion B must both be greater than 10.

Answer:

15.3 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezoid is given by = 1/2*( sum of parallel side) height

Given area of trapezoid = 221.85 sq. miles

Length of parallel sides = 19 miles and 10 miles.

Sum of parallel sides = 19 miles + 10 miles = 29 miles.

Plugging the above values in formula for area of trapezoid we have

Area of trapezoid is given by = 1/2*( sum of parallel sides) height

221.85 = 1/2 (29) height

=> 221.85* 2 = 29* height

=> 443.7 = 29* height

=> 443.7/29 =  height

=> height = 15.3

Thus, height is 15.3 miles.
