Answer:

28. 0.2461 or 24.61%.

29. 0.00058275 or 0.058275%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 28:

we can use the binomial probability formula to calculate the probability:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{P(X = k) = (nCk) * p^k * (1 - p)^(n - k)}}[/tex]

Where:

In this case, we have n = 9 babies, and each baby has a 50% chance of being a girl (p = 0.5). We want to find the probability that exactly 4 of them are girls (k = 4).

Using the formula, we can calculate the probability as follows:

[tex]\bold{P(X = 4) = (9C4) * (0.5)^4 * (1 - 0.5)^(9 - 4)}[/tex]

Calculating the values:

Now, we can substitute these values into the formula:

P(X = 4) = 126 * 0.0625 * 0.03125 = 0.2461 or 24.61%

Therefore, the probability that exactly 4 out of 9 babies are girls is approximately 0.2461 or 24.61%.

Question 29:

We need to calculate the number of possible outcomes to calculate this probability, where the gambler correctly predicts the top 3 finishers in order and divides it by the total number of possible outcomes.

The total number of possible outcomes is the number of permutations of 13 horses taken 3 at a time.

This can be calculated as:

[tex]13P3 = \frac{13! }{(13 - 3)! }= \frac{13! }{ 10! }=\frac{13*12*11*10! }{ 10! }= 13 * 12 * 11 = 1,716[/tex]

Now,

To calculate the number of favorable outcomes where the gambler predicts the top 3 finishers correctly, we need to consider that there is only one correct order for the horses to finish.

Therefore, there is only one favorable outcome.

The probability of the gambler winning his bet is given by:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{P\:(winning) = \frac{Number\: of \:favorable\: outcomes }{ Total \:number \:of \:outcomes}}}[/tex]

[tex]P(winning) = \frac{1 }{1,716}=0,00058275 \: or\:0.058275%[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the gambler will win his bet is approximately 0.00058275 or 0.058275%.

Answer:

28)  0.246 = 24.6%

29)  1/286 = 0.350%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model the given scenario as a binomial distribution.

[tex]X \sim \text{B}(n,p)[/tex]

where:

Given the probability that a baby is born a girl is 0.5, and the number of babies is 9:

[tex]\boxed{X \sim \text{B}(9,0.5)}[/tex]

where the random variable X represents the number of babies who are girls.

To find the probability that at exactly 4 babies are girls, we need to find P(X = 4).

To do this, we can use the binomial distribution formula:

[tex]\boxed{\displaystyle \text{P}(X=x)=\binom{n}{x} \cdot p^x \cdot (1-p)^{n-x}}[/tex]

Substitute the values of n = 9, p = 0.5 and x = 4 into the formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \text{P}(X=4)&=\binom{9}{4} \cdot 0.5^4 \cdot (1-0.5)^{9-4}\\\\&=\dfrac{9!}{4!\:(9-4)!} \cdot 0.5^4 \cdot 0.5^{5}\\\\&=126 \cdot 0.0625 \cdot 0.03125\\\\& = 0.24609375\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that 4 babies from a sample of 9 babies are girls is 0.246 (3 s.f.) or 24.6%.

We can also use the binomial probability density function of a calculator to calculate P(X = 4).

Inputting the values of n = 9, p = 0.5 and x = 4 into the binomial pdf:

[tex]\text{P}(X=4)=0.24609375[/tex]

Therefore, this confirms that the probability that 4 babies from a sample of 9 babies are girls is 0.246 (3 s.f.) or 24.6%.

To calculate the probability that the gambler will win his bet, we need to determine the number of favorable outcomes (winning combinations) and the total number of possible outcomes.

The gambler wins if he picks the top three horses in any order. There are 6 ways for the three winners to be arranged in the top three.

There are a total of 13 horses in the race.

Therefore, the total number of possible outcomes is:

[tex]13 \times 12 \times 11 = 1716[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the gambler will win his bet is:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \sf Probability &=\sf \dfrac{Favorable \;outcomes}{Total\;outcomes}\\\\&=\dfrac{6}{1716}\\\\&=\dfrac{1}{286}\\\\ & \approx0.350\%\; \sf (3\;d.p.)\end{aligned}[/tex]

The Wendy spent $27.78 on a silver necklace online.To calculate the total cost of the silver necklace, we need to add the cost of the necklace to the shipping and handling charges.

The cost of the necklace is given as $23.15.

Wendy bought a silver necklace online. It cost $23.15 plus 20% shipping and handling.

What was the total cost?When purchasing a silver necklace online, Wendy spent $23.15, but she had to pay for shipping and handling as well, which cost 20% of the total price of the item.

To find the total cost of the necklace, follow these steps:

1. Determine the cost of shipping and handling: $23.15 × 0.20 = $4.632

Add the cost of shipping and handling to the cost of the necklace:$23.15 + $4.63 = $27.78

The total cost of the necklace is $27.78.

It's important to consider the additional charges such as shipping and handling when calculating the total cost of an online purchase to have an accurate understanding of the amount spent.

Answer:

Both students scored in the top 10% of their classes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Top 10% = Above the 100 - 10 = 90th percentile.

The 90th percentile of scores is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9, that is, Z = 1.28.

So, the student who had a z-score above 1.28 scored in the 90th percentile of their class.

In student A's class the mean was 78 and the standard deviation of 5. He scored 87.

We have that [tex]\mu = 78, \sigma = 5, X = 87[/tex]

Then

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{87 - 78}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex]

1.8 > 1.28, so student A scored in the top 10% of his/her class.

Student B's class the mean was 76 with a standard deviation of 4. Scored 87.

We have that [tex]\mu = 76, \sigma = 4, X = 87[/tex]

Then

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{87 - 76}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.75[/tex]

2.75 > 1.28, so student B also scored in the top 10% of his/her class.

Both students scored in the top 10% of their classes.

The closure property does not hold for division of polynomials because the result may not be a polynomial itself.

The closure property states that if you perform an operation on two elements within a certain set, the result of that operation will also be within the same set.

In the case of addition, subtraction, and multiplication, this property holds true, but it does not apply to the division of polynomials.

When dividing polynomials, the result may not always be a polynomial. Division involves dividing the coefficients of the terms and subtracting exponents, which can result in fractional or negative exponents.

These fractional or negative exponents indicate that the result is not a polynomial, but rather a rational function or a polynomial with non-integer exponents.

For example, consider dividing the polynomial x^2 by the polynomial x. The result is x, which is a polynomial. However, if you divide x^2 by x^2 + 1, the result is 1 / (1 + 1/x^2), which is a rational function, not a polynomial.

Substituting the given variable cost per book for Method 1 (which is not specified), we can calculate the value of 'x' that makes the costs equal for the two methods.

Let's assume the number of books produced is denoted by 'x'. We need to find the value of 'x' for which the costs from the two methods are the same.

For the first method, the total cost is the sum of the one-time fixed cost and the variable cost per book:

Total cost for Method 1 = 44,907 + (variable cost per book) * x

For the second method, the total cost is the sum of the one-time fixed cost and the variable cost per book:

Total cost for Method 2 = 22,907 + (23.25 * x)

To find the number of books produced when the costs from the two methods are equal, we set the total costs equal to each other and solve for 'x':

44,907 + (variable cost per book) * x = 22,907 + (23.25 * x)

Subtracting (23.25 * x) from both sides and rearranging the equation:

21,000 = 23.25 * x - (variable cost per book) * x

21,000 = x * (23.25 - (variable cost per book))

Dividing both sides by (23.25 - (variable cost per book)):

x = 21,000 / (23.25 - (variable cost per book))

Substituting the given variable cost per book for Method 1 (which is not specified), we can calculate the value of 'x' that makes the costs equal for the two methods.

Answer: 14.4 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation: The formula for the area of a triangle is A=1/2(b)(h). B is the base of the triangle and h is the height. First solve for the top part of the triangle. A=1/2(2)(3.2). A=3.2 ft^2. The 2 triangles on top are congruent, so you can multiply the area for the 1st triangle by 2 to get the combined area of the 2 top triangles. 3.2*2=6.4 ft^2.

Now we will solve for the 2 bottom triangles. A=1/2(2)(4). A=4 ft^2. The 2 triangles on the bottom are also congruent, so multiply the area that we got by 2 to get the combined area of both bottom triangles. 4*2=8 ft^2.

Finally, add both values to get the total area. 6.4+8=14.4 ft^2.
