5. [Statistical independence] Consider a month consisting of exactly 28 days, split into four weeks of seven days each, such that the first of the month is a Monday. One of the 28 days will be selected uniformly at random (so that each day has probability 1/28 of being selected). Event A is that the selected day is a Monday or Wednesday. Event B is that the selected day falls either in the first or third weeks of the month. Are A and B independent or not? Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

They are independent events

Step-by-step explanation:

For independent events;

Pr(A & B) = Pr(A) × Pr(B)

Given that:

A = day is Monday or Wednesday

Since we have four weeks and each week will have one Monday and Wednesday each,

Pr(A) = (8/28)

B = day falls in the first or third week

Since, first and the third week has a total of 14 days,

Pr(B) = 14/28

Therefore;

Pr(A) × Pr(B) = 8/28 * 14/28

Pr(A) × Pr(B)  = 1/7

Now, A and B = day is either Monday or Wednesday, and it is in the first or third week

There are four such days, Thus Pr(A and B) = 4/28 = 1/7

Since, Pr(A and B) = Pr(A) * Pr(B),

A and B are independent events

In a girl's bank, there is a collection of nickels, dimes, and quarters which amounts to $9.50. There are four times as many quarters as nickels, and 3 more dimes than nickels. How many coins of each kind are there?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of nickels be x

Let the amount of dimes be y

Let the amount of quarters be z

If the total collection amounts to $9.50, then;

x+y+z = 9.50 ..... 1

If there are four times as many quarters as nickels, then;

z = 4x .... 2

Also if there are 3 more dimes than nickels then;

y = x+3 .... 3

Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;

x + x+3 + 4x = 9.50

6x = 9.50 -5

6x = 4.50

x = 4.50/6

x = $0.75

Since y = x  +3

y = 0.75 + 3

y = $3.75

Also, z = 4x

z = 0.75(5)

z = $3.0

Hence there are

Suppose the national average dollar amount for an automobile insurance claim is $758.83. You work for an agency in Michigan and you are interested in whether or not the state average is less than the national average. The hypotheses for this scenario are as follows. Null Hypothesis: μ ≥ 758.83, Alternative Hypothesis: μ < 758.83. You take a random sample of claims and calculate a p-value of 0.0349 based on the data, what is the appropriate conclusion? Conclude at the 5% level of significance.
A. The true average claim amount is significantly higher than $758.83.
B. The true average claim amount is higher than or equal to $758.83.
C. We did not find enough evidence to say the true average claim amount is less than $758.83.
D. The true average claim amount is significantly different from $758.83.
E. The true average claim amount is significantly less than $758.83.

Answers

Answer:

The  correct option is  E  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = \$ 758.83[/tex]

     The  null hypothesis  is [tex]H_o : \mu \ge 758.83[/tex]

      The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu < 758.83[/tex]

      The  p-value is  [tex]p-value = 0.0349[/tex]

      The  level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the value given we see that  the p-value  < [tex]\alpha[/tex] hence  

  The decision rule is  

Reject the null hypothesis  

 The  conclusion is  

    The true average claim amount is significantly less than $758.83.

Mark can type 20 words per minute. Carol can type 22 words per minute. Mark starts typing at 1:00 pm and Carol starts typing 6 minutes later. At 1:15 pm, both Mark and Carol stop typing. Together, how many words did Mark and Carol type between 1:00 and 1:15 pm?

Answers

Answer:

C. 498

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of words typed by both Mark and Carol is 498.

Rate of typing by Mark = 20 word per minute

Rate of typing by Carol = 22 words per minute

Since, Mark starts typing at 1:00 pm  and stop at 1:15 pm.

So, time taken by Mark is 15 minute.

number of words typed by  Mark = [tex]20*15=300[/tex]

Since, Carol starts typing 6 min late , i.e.  at 1:06 pm  and stop at 1:15 pm.

So, time taken by Carol is 9 minute.

number of words typed by  Carol =[tex]22*9=198[/tex]

Total number of words typed by both Mark and Carol = [tex]300+198=498[/tex] words.

Deborah spent $70 on food and clothes she spent $26 more on clothes then on food Brighton solve a system of equations to find how much Debra spent on each

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the total will be $70.

She bought food, let's call that "F"

She spent $26 more on clothes than food. So her clothes purchase is "F+26".

So let's set-up the equation this way:

food + clothing = Total Spent

F + F + 26 = 70

2F + 26 = 70 (subtract 26 from both sides of the = sign)

2F = 44 (Divide both sides so you find out how much was spent on "F" or food.)

F = 22 (But the question doesn't stop there.)

Deborah spent $22 on food. (Remember, she spent $26 more on clothes, so we have to use our "clothes" equation? ) Deborah spent $48 on clothes. She spent a total of $70 on her purchases.

The probability in a survey of 22 Americans where exactly 15 of them will respond that they love beets given that 60% of American love beets is 0.131.

What is probability?

It is the chance of an event to occur from a total number of outcomes.

The formula for probability is given as:

Probability = Number of required events / Total number of outcomes.

We have,

The binomial probability distribution:

[tex]^nC_r p^r (1 - p)^{n - r}[/tex]

Now,

p = 60% = 60/100 = 0.6

1 - p = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

n = 22

r = 15

Now,

[tex]^nC_r p^r (1 - p)^{n - r}[/tex]

= [tex]^{22}C_{15}(0.6)^{15} (0.4)^{22 - 15}[/tex]

= [tex]^{22}C_{15}(0.6)^{15} (0.4)^7[/tex]

= 0.1313

Thus,

The probability is 0.131.

Answers

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 6 = ½(4x + 44) (midsegment theorem)

Multiply both sides by 2

2(4x + 6) = 4x + 44

8x + 12 = 4x + 44

Collect like terms

8x - 4x = -12 + 44

4x = 32

Divide both sides by 4

x = 8

Length of midsegment = 4x + 6

Midsegment = 4(8) + 6
