4. Charles claims that he can distinguish between beer and ale 75 percent of the time. Ruth bets that he cannot and, in fact, just guesses. To settle this, a bet is made: Charles is to be given ten small glasses, each having been filled with beer or ale, chosen by tossing a fair coin. He wins the bet if he gets seven or more correct. Find the probability that Charles wins if he has the ability that he claims. Find the probability that Ruth wins if Charles is guessing.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Probability that Charles gets 7 or more correctly = 0.776

Probability that Ruth wins = 0.827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Probability that Charles distinguishes between beer and ale = 0.75

no of glasses = 10

no required to win the bet = 7 or more.

Solution:

a) probability of success p=0.75.

This is a binomial probability problem, what we need to solve for is the probability that ( X >=7 ) this can be gotten as

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

where k=7,8,9,10

Probability that he gets 7 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

Substitute k = 7 into the equation

= 0.250

Probability that he gets 8 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

substitute k = 8 into the equation

= 0.282

Probability that he gets 9 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

Substitute k = 9 into the equation

= 0.188

Probability that he gets 10 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

Substitute the k= 10 into the equation.

= 0.0563

Probability that Charles gets 7 or more correctly

= 0.250 + 0.282 + 0.0563 + 0.188

= 0.776

b) Probability that Ruth wins

K = 1,2,3,4,5,6

p=0.5

P(X < 7)

P(X < 7) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Probability that he gets one correctly

P(X = 1 ) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

substitute k= 1 into the equation.

= 0.0098

P(X=2) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k= 2 into the equation

= 0.0439

P(X =3) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k=3 into the equation.

=0.117

P(X=4) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k= 4 into the equation

= 0.2051

P(X=5) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k =5 into the equation

= 0.246

P(X= 6 ) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k = 6 into the equation

= 0.205

Probability that Ruth wins

= 0.205 + 0.246 + 0.2051 + 0.117 + 0.0439 + 0.0098

= 0.827

How does the graph of g(x)=4⌊x⌋ differ from the graph of f(x)=⌊x⌋?

Answers

Answer: C) Stretched vertically by a factor of 4

This is another way of saying "the graph of g(x) is 4 times taller compared to f(x)".

Recall that anything of the form g(x) = k*f(x) will basically stretch f(x) vertically by a factor of k, where k is any real number. This is because y = f(x) and k*f(x) will move the y coordinate k times further away. For 4*f(x), the y coordinate is moved 4 times further away. Do this for every point, and you'll have the vertical stretch mentioned earlier.

find the amount accumlatrd after investing a principal P for t years at an interest rate compound annuay. P= $12,000 r=7.5% t=7 ​

Answers

Answer:

A = $19,908.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound Interest

Compound interest occurs when the interest earned in a given period is reinvested rather than paying it out. The interest in the next period is then earned on the principal sum plus previously accumulated interest.

The formula is:

[tex]{\displaystyle A=P\left(1+{\frac {r}{k}}\right)^{kt}}[/tex]

Where:

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

k = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

We are given the following data:

P = $12,000

r = 7.5% = 7.5/100 = 0.075

t = 7

k = 1 since there is only on compounding per year.

Applying the formula:

[tex]{\displaystyle A=\$12,000\left(1+{\frac {0.075}{1}}\right)^{7}}[/tex]

[tex]{\displaystyle A=\$12,000\left(1.075\right)^{7}}[/tex]

A = $19,908.59

Mike reads 10 pages of a novel on night 1.

Mike thinks he can finish reading his 219
page novel in 10 days. His brother says it
will take 22 days. Who is right? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Thus at this rate, Mike would be able to finish reading the 219 novel in 10 days. Mike is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of pages of the novel = 219.

1st night, he reads 10 pages.

2nd night, he reads 13 pages.

3rd night, he reads 16 pages.

4th night he reads 19 pages.

5th night, he reads 22 pages.

6th night, he reads 25 pages.

7th night, he reads 28 pages.

8th night, he reads 31 pages.

9th night, he reads 34 pages.

10th night, he reads 37 pages.

Total number of pages read after 10 nights = 235

Thus at this rate, Mike would be able to finish reading the 219 novel in 10 days. Mike is right.

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you need to pick two points and put into the slope formula.  It doesn't matter which ones, you will get the right answer regardless.  I used (-3, 11) and (2, 1).

[tex]m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} } \\m=\frac{11 -1 }{-3 -2 } \\m=\frac{10 }{-5 } \\m=-2[/tex]

Now that you have the slope, you can plug it into point-slope form to find the equation in slope-intercept form.  You will also need to plug one of the given points.  Again, it doesn't matter which one.

[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1} )\\y-1=-2(x-2)\\y-1=-2x+4\\y=-2x+5[/tex]

Answers

Note: your answer options suggest as if your actual question was

y = -4x - 9 instead of y = -x-9

But, anyways I am solving with respect to both equations

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

IN CASE YOUR EQUATION ⇒ y = -x - 9

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the line

[tex]y = -x-9[/tex]

comparing with the slope-intercept form (y = mx+b) of the line

Therefore, slope of the line = m = -1

We know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line, such as:

slope = m = -1

perpendicular slope = – 1/m = -1/-1 = 1

Thus the slope of this  perpendicular line will be:  1

IN CASE YOUR EQUATION ⇒ y = -4x - 9

Given the line

[tex]y = -4x - 9[/tex]

comparing with the slope-intercept form (y = mx+b) of the line

Therefore, slope of the line = m = -4

We know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line, such as:

slope = m = -4

perpendicular slope = – 1/4 = -1/-4 = 4

Thus the slope of this  perpendicular line will be: 4

pay?
A) 42%
B) 48%
C) 50%
D) 56%

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let retail be $100

At 20% discount

(100-20)% * 100

0.8*100

$80

At 30% discount

(100-30)%* 80

$56

Using the percentage relationship between cost, the book was purchased at 56% of the retail price.

Let :

Retail price = r

Discount price = 0.8r

Special sale price :

30% off discount price

(1 - 0.30) × 0.8r

0.70 × 0.80r = 0.56r

Hence, the book was purchased at 56% of the retail price.

so, I will solve both of them.

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

[tex]4x+5y^3=-7[/tex]

Assuming the equation

[tex]4x+5y^3=-7[/tex]

substituting x = -4 and y = 2

[tex]4\left(-4\right)+5\left(2\right)^3=-7[/tex]

[tex]-16+2^3\cdot \:\:5=-7[/tex]

[tex]-16+40=-7[/tex]

[tex]24=-7[/tex]

False!

The sides are not equal!

Since (-4, 2) does not satisfy the equation, therefore (-4, 2) is not a solution of [tex]4x+5y^3=-7[/tex].

2)

[tex]4x+5y=-37[/tex]

Assuming the equation

[tex]4x+5y=-37[/tex]

substituting x = -4 and y = 2

[tex]4\left(-4\right)+5\left(2\right)=-37[/tex]

[tex]-16 + 10 = -37[/tex]

[tex]-6=-37[/tex]

False!

The sides are not equal!

Since (-4, 2) does not satisfy the equation, therefore (-4, 2) is not a solution of [tex]4x+5y=-37[/tex].
