Answer:
0.4460 = 44.60% probability that none of the 8 surnames of these authors were among the 10 most common
Step-by-step explanation:
For each surname, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are among the 10 most common, or they are not. Each author is independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
These names account for 9.6% of all U.S. residents.
This means that [tex]p = 0.096[/tex]
8 authors in total.
This means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]
What is the probability that none of the 8 surnames of these authors were among the 10 most common
This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.096)^{0}.(0.904)^{8} = 0.4460[/tex]
0.4460 = 44.60% probability that none of the 8 surnames of these authors were among the 10 most common

Answer:
0.1402
Step-by-step explanation:
For each baby elk, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they survive adulthood, or they do not survive. The probability of an elk surviving adulthood is independent of other elks. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
Biologists estimate that a randomly selected baby elk has a 44% chance of surviving to adulthood.
This means that [tex]p = 0.44[/tex]
Suppose researchers choose 7 baby elk at random to monitor.
This means that [tex]n = 7[/tex]
What is the probability that more than 4 elk in the sample to survive to adulthood?
This is:
[tex]P(X > 4) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{7,5}.(0.44)^{5}.(0.56)^{2} = 0.1086[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{7,6}.(0.44)^{6}.(0.56)^{1} = 0.0284[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{7,7}.(0.44)^{7}.(0.56)^{0} = 0.0032[/tex]
[tex]P(X > 4) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.1086 + 0.0284 + 0.0032 = 0.1402[/tex]
0.1402 probability that more than 4 elk in the sample to survive to adulthood.
Using the concept of binomial probability, the probability that more than 4 survive is 0.1402
Using the binomial probability formula :
[tex] P(x = x) = nCx \times p^{x} \times q^{(n-x)} [/tex] p = probability of success = 0.44q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.44 = 0.56 n = number of trials = 7The probability that more than 4 survive can be defined thus :
[tex] P(x > 4) = p(x = 5) + p(x = 6) + p(x = 7) [/tex]Using a binomial probability calculator :
[tex] P(x > 4) = 0.1086 + 0.0284 + 0.0032 [/tex]
[tex] P(x > 4) = 0.1402 [/tex]
Hence, the probability that more than 4 survive is 0.1402

Using properties of parallelograms, RSTU is a parallelogram that has vertices R (-3,1), S (3,4), and T( 6,2(. What are the coordinates of point U.
Answer:
(0, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (has four sides) in which opposite sides are parallel to each other. Also for a parallelogram, the opposite sides and angles are equal to each other.
Hence for parallelogram RSTU, RS // TU and RU // ST
Let the coordinate of U be (x , y). Two lines are parallel to each other if their slopes are equal, hence:
Slope of RS = (4 - 1) /[3 - (-3)] = 3/6 = 0.5
Slope of ST = (2 - 4) /[6 - 3] = -2/3
Slope of RU = (y - 1) /[x - (-3)] = (y - 1) / (x + 3)
Slope of TU = (y - 2) /[x - 6]
Slope of RU = Slope of ST
(y - 1) / (x + 3) = -2/3
3y - 3 = -2x -6
2x + 3y = -6 + 3
2x + 3y = -3 (1)
Slope of RS = Slope of TU
0.5 = (y - 2) /[x - 6]
0.5x - 3 = y - 2
0.5x - y = 1 (2)
Solving 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:
x = 0, y = -1
Therefore the coordinates of U = (0, -1)

32) Write a compound inequality that represents the given graph:
A. 6≤x 10
D. 6
Answer:
6 < x ≤ 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph given shows that the possible value of x greater 6 (does not include 6 because the circle is not full) and also is less than or equal to 10 (includes 10 because the circle is full).
That is: x > 6 and x ≤ 10
This can be written as: 6 < x ≤ 10
A shade of green paint is made by mixing blue paint and yellow paint in the ratio of 4 to 3. How many pints of blue paint and yellow
paint are needed to make 21 pints of the green paint?
Answer:
[tex]Blue = 12[/tex]
[tex]Yellow = 9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Blue : Yellow = 4 : 3[/tex]
Required
Determine the number of pints of each to make 21 of green paints
First, calculate the total ratio.
[tex]Total = 4 + 3[/tex]
[tex]Total = 7[/tex]
The blue and the yellow pint can be represented individually as:
[tex]Blue = \frac{4}{7} * Green[/tex]
[tex]Yellow = \frac{3}{7} * Green[/tex]
Number of blue paint calculated last week is:
[tex]Blue = \frac{4}{7} * 21[/tex]
[tex]Blue = {4} * 3[/tex]
[tex]Blue = 12[/tex]
[tex]Yellow = \frac{3}{7} * Green[/tex]
[tex]Yellow = \frac{3}{7} * 21[/tex]
[tex]Yellow = {3} * 3[/tex]
[tex]Yellow = 9[/tex]

A survey found that 6 out of 8 students own a pet. If there are 320 students in a school, what is a reasonable prediction for the number of students who own a pet?
Answer:
Reasonable prediction = 240 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
6 out of every 8 students own a pet.
Ratio = 6 : 8
Number of students surveyed = 320
Predicted number of students who own pets = x
Ratio = x : 320
As the relationship is proportional;
6 : 8 :: x : 320
Product of mean = Product of extreme
8x = 320 * 6
8x = 1920
Dividing both sides by 8
[tex]\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{1920}{8}\\x=240[/tex]
Hence,
Reasonable prediction = 240 students

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
m∠B = 44°
Step-by-step explanation:
∑ of all angles in a triangle = 180°.
Note that m∠C = 90° (based on the definition of a right angle).
Note that m∠A = 46° (given).
Set the equation:
Total (180) = 90 + 46 + m∠B
Isolate the term, m∠B. First, simplify. Combine like terms:
180 = (90 + 46) + m∠B
m∠B + (136) = 180
Next, note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 136 from both sides:
m∠B + 136 (-136) = 180 (-136)
m∠B = 180 - 136
m∠B = 44°
44° is the measurement of the indicated angle B.

The equation y-2/3=-2(x-1/4) is written in point slope form. What is the equation in slope-intercept form ?
Answer:
y = -2x + 7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
y-2/3=-2(x-1/4)
Distribute the -2
y-2/3=-2x+ 2/4
y - 2/3 = -2x + 1/2
Add 2/3 to each side
y - 2/3 + 2/3 = -2x + 1/2 + 2/3
Get a common denominator
y = -2x + 3/6 + 4/6
y = -2x + 7/6
Answer:
y=-2x+7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for point-slope is y-y1=m(x-x1), where (x1,y1) are one of the points on the line.
y-2/3=-2(x-1/4)
(1/4, 2/3) is the point and the slope is -2
The equation for slope-intercept is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y=(-2)x+b **Substitute the slope into m**
(2/3)=-2(1/4)+b **Substitute the points in as x and y**
2/3=-2/4+b
14/12=b **Add 2/4 to both sides**
14/12 is the same as 7/6
7/6 is the y-intercept
y=-2x+7/6

Keiko's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee cost Keiko $4.15 per pound, and type B coffee costs $5.25 per pound. This month's blend used four times as many pounds of type B coffee as type A, for a total cost of $980.85. How many pounds of type A coffee were used?
Answer:
39 pounds of type A coffee were used.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
x be the pounds of type A coffee used
y be the pounds of type B coffee used
According to given statement;
4.15x+5.25y=980.85 Eqn 1
y = 4x Eqn 2
Putting y=4x in Eqn 1
4.15x+5.25(4x) = 980.85
4.15x+ 21x = 980.85
25.15x = 980.85
Dividing both sides by 25.15
[tex]\frac{25.15x}{25.15}=\frac{980.85}{25.15}\\x=39[/tex]
Hence,
39 pounds of type A coffee were used.
