a basketball player makes each free-throw with a probability of 0.3 and is on the line for a one-and-one free throw. (that is, a second throw is allowed only if the first is successful.) what is the probability that the player will score 0 points

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.7 = 70% probability that the player will score 0 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each free throw, we have these following probabilities:

0.3 probability the player makes.

0.7 probability the player misses.

What is the probability that the player will score 0 points?

He is only allowed the second if he misses the first, thus, he ends with 0 points only if he misses the first.

For any free throw:

0.7 probability the player misses, so 0.7 = 70% probability that the player misses the first free throw, and 0.7 = 70% probability that the player will score 0 points.

At noon, ship A is 150 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 35 kmyh and ship B is sailing north at 25 kmyh. How fast is the distance between the ships changing at 4:00 pm

Answers

Answer:

the distance between the ships is changing at 21.4 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

distance between ship A and ship B = 150 km

speed of ship, A = 35 km/h

speed of ship B = 25 km/h

at 4 pm, the time difference = 4 hours

let the distance between A and B = C

The position of A after 4 hours = 35 km/h x 4 h = 140 km

The distance covered by A, a = 150 km - 140 km = 10 km

The distance covered by B, b = 25 km/h x 4 h = 100 km

The distance between A and B;

c² = a² + b²

c² = 10²  +  100²

c² = 10100

c = √10100

c = 100.5 km

The change in the distance between A and B is calculated as;

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2\\\\2c\frac{dc}{dt} = 2a\frac{da}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} \\\\c\frac{dc}{dt} = a\frac{da}{dt} + b\frac{db}{dt} \\\\100.5(\frac{dc}{dt}) = -10(35) + 100(25) \\\\(the \ negative \ sign \ indicates \ decrease \ in \ distance \ of \ A \ from \ B \ with \ time)\\\\100.5(\frac{dc}{dt})= 2150\\\\\frac{dc}{dt} = \frac{2150}{100.5} \\\\\frac{dc}{dt} = 21.39 \ km/h\\\\\frac{dc}{dt} \approx 21.4 \ km/h[/tex]

Therefore, the distance between the ships is changing at 21.4 km/h

Suppose that the probability that a person will develop hypertension over a life time is 60%. Of 13 graduating students from the same college are selected at random. find the mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time

Answers

Answer:

The mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time is 7.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes, either they will develop hypertension, or they will not. The probability of a person developing hypertension is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

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

Suppose that the probability that a person will develop hypertension over a life time is 60%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.6[/tex]

13 graduating students from the same college are selected at random.

This means that [tex]n = 13[/tex]

Find the mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time

[tex]E(X) = np = 13*0.6 = 7.8[/tex]

The mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time is 7.8.

In the picture below, which lines are lines of symmetry for the figure?
A. only 2
B. 1, 2, and 3
C. 2 and 4
D. 1 and 3

Answers

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

2 and 4 makes the figure look symmetrical

The required lines of symmetry are 2 and 4. option C is correct.

A given picture line of symmetry is to be determined from 1, 2, 3, and 4.


What is a line?

the line is a curve showing the shortest distance between 2 points.

A line of symmetry is defined as the line that draw across any curve or shape, The curve and shape have equal proportion across the line, that line is called the line of symmetry.

Clearly,  from observation, it is seen that line 1 and line 3 does not have the same proportion of area across it, so this is not a line of symmetry.
Line 2 and line 4, is lines of symmetry because it has equal proportion of the area across it.

Thus, the required lines of symmetry are 2 and 4. option C is correct.

Suppose scores on exams in statistics are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and a population standard deviation of three points. A random sample of 36 scores is taken and gives a sample mean of 68. Find a 85 % confidence interval estimate for the population mean exam score. Explain what the confidence interval means​

Answers

this the answer of queastions

Step-by-step explanation:

67.18,68.82

Let mu be the true population mean of statistics exam scores. We have a large random samples of n=36 scores with a sample mean of 68.we know that the population standard deviation is sigma=3.A pivotal quantity is 3^sqrt(36)=(3/6)=68(1/2) which is approximately normally distributed. Therefore the 85%confidence interval is 68-(1/2)(1.6449), 68+(1/2)(1.6449) i.e (67.18,68.82)

A mid-sized company has decided to implement an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, and management suspects that many of its employees are concerned about the planned implementation. Managers are considering holding informational workshops to help decrease anxiety levels among employees. To determine whether such an approach would be effective, they randomly select 16 employees to participate in a pilot workshop. These employees were given a questionnaire to measure anxiety levels about ERP before and after participating in the workshop. Do the data indicate that anxiety levels about ERP decreases as a result of the workshop

Answers

Answer:

From the data The anxiety levels decreases as a result of the workshop

given that the mean value of the differences = -1.1125

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of randomly selected employees = 16

From the data It can be noticed that the difference in anxiety levels decrease ( Tends towards values below 0 )

To determine this we have to determine the mean value of the differences

(-3) + (-3) + (-2) +(-2) +(-2) + (-2 ) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1 ) + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0  + 1 / 16

= -18 / 16 = - 1.1125

mean value = -1.1125.

The calculation of the mean of a population and the expected value of the probability mass function of a Random Variable (RV) are quite similar. Consider a probability mass function that contains 4 unique Random Variables: 100, 200, 300, 400. If the expected value of the RV can be calculated by simply taking the average of the RVs, what can be said about the corresponding probabilities of each of the 4 RVs

B.) The sum of the probabilities of the RVs exceed 1

C.) This is an impossible occurrence

D.) The probabilities of the RVs must be equal

E.) None of the above

answer:

The probabilities of the RVs may be equal ( A )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of the  population mean and the value of probability mass function of a set of random variables are similar

For the Random Variables : 100,200,300,400

The Probability mass function of RV = ( 100 + 200 + 300 + 400 ) / 4

Hence  The probabilities of the RVs may be equal

What is the length of de?

Answers

Answer: length of DE = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angles of these two triangles are the same, we can assume that they are similar triangles. To solve for a missing side of a triangle that is similar, you can set up a proportion:

[tex]\frac{27}{15}=\frac{x}{10}[/tex]

To solve for x (the missing length), you would do:

27 × 10 ÷ 15 = 18

You can set up the proportion in any way between the two triangles as long as the two sides correspond to each other. For example, you could have also used the following proportion to solve for x:

[tex]\frac{x}{27} =\frac{10}{15}[/tex]

When you solve for x using this proportion, you would get the same value for x:

10 × 27 ÷ 15 = 18
