Consider 4 flips of an unfair coin where probability of heads is 0.40. Consider all tosses independent of each other. (a) Compare the probability of 4 heads in 4 tosses and 4 tails in 4 tosses. (b) Determine the probability of H T H T in 4 tosses. (c) Determine the number of outcomes that give us 2 heads in 4 tosses in any order. What is the probability of 2 heads in 4 tosses (use (b) and the number of outcomes)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.0256 = 2.56% probability of 4 heads.

0.1296 = 12.96% probability of 4 tails.

b) The probability is 0.0576 = 5.76%.

c) 6 outcomes given 2 heads in 4 tosses. 0.3456 = 34.56% probability of 2 heads in 4 tosses

Step-by-step explanation:

For each throw, we have these following probabilities:

0.4 = 40% probability of heads.

0.6 = 60% probability of tails.

(a) Compare the probability of 4 heads in 4 tosses and 4 tails in 4 tosses.

4 heads:

4 throws, each with 0.4 probability of heads. So

[tex](0.4)^4 = 0.0256[/tex]

0.0256 = 2.56% probability of 4 heads.

4 tails:

4 throws, each with 0.6 probability of tails. So

[tex](0.6)^4 = 0.1296[/tex]

0.1296 = 12.96% probability of 4 tails.

(b) Determine the probability of H T H T in 4 tosses.

H = 0.4, T = 0.6. So

[tex]p = 0.4*0.6*0.4*0.6 = 0.0576[/tex]

The probability is 0.0576 = 5.76%.

(c) Determine the number of outcomes that give us 2 heads in 4 tosses in any order. What is the probability of 2 heads in 4 tosses (use (b) and the number of outcomes)

Number of outcomes:

The possible outcomes are:

H - H - T - T

H - T - H - T

H - T - T - H

T - H - H - T

T - H - T - H

T - T - H - H

6 outcomes given 2 heads in 4 tosses.

Each with probability 0.0576, as found in b)

6*0.0576 = 0.3456

0.3456 = 34.56% probability of 2 heads in 4 tosses

The ratio of tomatoes to pepper plants in the garden is 5:2. If there are 6 more tomato plants than pepper plants, how many pepper plants are in the garden?

Answers

The ratio from tomatoes to pepper plants is 5:2

Meaning there are 5 tomatoes and 2 pepper plants

In order to find a ratio where there are 6 more tomatoes than pepper plants you will have to multiply.

-----

When the ratio 5:2 is multiplied by 2

it equals 10:4

We can stop here because it is shown that now there are 6 more tomatoes than pepper plants.

-----

So there are:

10 tomatoes

and

4 pepper plants!

Answers

Answer:

47.4 ;

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

X ($) : 85 139 161 175 85 133 149 145 136 131 290 235 132 149 322 214 105 90 162 229 121 113 149 126139 118 156 214 172 87 172 230 195 126 128 142 118 139

The smallest class interval :

Range / number of classes

Number of classes to use = 5

Range = Maximum - Minimum = (322 - 85) =237

Hence, smallest class interval :

237 / 5 = 47.4

A better class interval would be, one without decimal, rounded to the nearest 10; this will be easier and make more statistical sense

Hence, smallest class interval rounded to the nearest 10 :

47.4 = 50 (nearest 10)

What is the smallest possible value x could take given that it must be an integer?
x>−3

Answers

Answer:

The smallest possible value that x could take is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Integer values:

Integer values can be either positive or negative, with no decimal parts. The integer set is given by:

{...,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,....}

x>−3

We want the first integer on the number line that is greater than -3. This is -2.

So the smallest possible value that x could take is -2.

Lavilla is a famous resort in Italy. All of its rooms are always booked in the winter season. On average, 2800 skiers come to the resort every week (7 days). On average, skiers stay in Lavilla for 4 days. Each skier spends $40 daily in local restaurants. Question 1 (1 point) The average number of skiers in Lavilla is: _____________ [skiers].

Answers

Answer:

The average number of skiers in Lavilla are 1,600 skiers

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of skiers that come to Lavilla on average each week = 2,800 skiers

The number of days each skier stays in Lavilla = 4 days

The amount each skier spends in local restaurants daily = $40

According to Little's Law, we have;

L = λ·W

Where;

L = The average number of skiers in Lavilla

λ = The effective arrival rate of the skiers = 2,800 skiers per week arrive

W = The number of days each skier stays at Lavilla = 4 days = 4/7 week

The average number of skiers in Lavilla, 'L', is therefore, given as follows;

L = 2,800 skiers/weel × (4/7) week = 1,600 skiers

The average number of skiers in Lavilla, L = 1,600 skiers

Suppose that 3\%3%3, percent of over 200{,}000200,000200, comma, 000 books borrowed from a library in a year are downloaded. The librarians plan to take an SRS of 757575 books from the population of borrowed books to see what proportion of books sampled are downloaded. What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the proportion of downloaded books

Answers

Answer:

The mean of the sampling distribution of the proportion of downloaded books is 0.03 and the standard deviation is 0.0197.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

3% of books borrowed from a library in a year are downloaded.

This means that [tex]p = 0.03[/tex]

SRS of 75 books.

This means that [tex]n = 75[/tex]

What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the proportion of downloaded books

By the Central Limit Theorem

Mean: [tex]\mu = p = 0.03[/tex]

Standard deviation: [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.03*0.97}{75}} = 0.0197[/tex]

The mean of the sampling distribution of the proportion of downloaded books is 0.03 and the standard deviation is 0.0197.

Researchers interviewed street prostitutes in Canada and the United States. The mean age of the 100 Canadian prostitutes upon entering prostitution was 19 with a standard deviation of seven. The mean age of the 130 United States prostitutes upon entering prostitution was 21 with a standard deviation of nine. Is the mean age of entering prostitution in Canada lower than the mean age in the United States

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and the alternative hypothesis is:

[tex]H_o: \mu_c \ge \mu_{us}[/tex]

[tex]H_a : \mu_c < \mu_{us}[/tex]

The t- student test statistics can be computed as:

[tex]t = \dfrac{x_c- x_{us}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_c^2}{n_c} + \dfrac{\sigma_{us}^2}{n_{us}} }}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{19- 21}{\sqrt{\dfrac{7^2}{100} + \dfrac{8^2}{130} }}[/tex]

t = -2.017  

degree of freedom = (n₁ - 1) + (n₂ - 1)  

= (100 - 1) + (130 - 1)

= 228

Using the data of t-value and degree of freedom;  

The P-value = -0.224

Decision rule: Do not reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is greater than ∝(0.01)

Conclusion: We reject the null hypothesis since the p-value is less than ∝.

Therefore, there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean age of entering prostitution in Canada is lower than that of the United States.
