In an experiment, the number of insects on a randomly selected plant is recorded.a Specify the sample space for this experiment.b Give the set A representing the event of at most three insects being on the plant.c Explain why each of the possible outcomes in the sample space is not equally likely.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,....} ;

{0, 1, 2, 3} ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of insect on a randomly selected plant

The number of insect in such an experiment will be an integer value ;

Hence, sample space will be ;

{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,....}

B.) Event of at most three insects:

Number of insects = 0 ;

Number of insect = 1 ;

Number of insect = 2 ;

Number of insect = 3 ;

n ≤ 3 {x : x ≤ 3}

{0, 1, 2, 3}

3.)

Each possible outcome in the sample space cannot be equally likely due to the fact that the number of insects on the selected plants will vary. With some plants having none to large number of insects while some have small amount of insects.

1. It costs $3.45 to buy 3/4 lb of chopped walnuts. How much would it cost to purchase
7.5 lbs of walnuts? Explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

$34.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, how many 3/4 lbs are in 7.5 lbs?

7.5 lbs = 15/2 lbs.

(15/2) / (3/4) = 10

There are 10 "3/4" lbs in 7.5 lbs.

So, if it costs $3.45 to purchase 3/4 lbs of chopped walnuts, it would cost $3.45 times 10 dollars to purchase 7.5 lbs of chopped walnuts, or $34.50.

Sam has 6 boxes of pencils. Each pack has x pencils in it. After Julie gives Sam 4 more pencils, he has a total of 40 pencils.

40 - (x + 4) = 6

6(x + 4 ) = 40

6x + 4 = 40

6 + 4x = 40

Answers

Answer:

6x + 4 = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 11% of all steel shafts produced by a certain process are nonconforming but can be reworked (rather than having to be scrapped). Consider a random sample of 200 shafts, and let X denote the number among these that are nonconforming and can be reworked. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) What is the (approximate) probability that X is at most 30

Answers

Answer:

0.9726 = 97.26% approximate probability that X is at most 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

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

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

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

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

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

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

11% of all steel shafts produced by a certain process are nonconforming but can be reworked (rather than having to be scrapped).

This means that [tex]p = 0.11[/tex]

Random sample of 200 shafts

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Mean and Standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(x) = np = 200*0.11 = 22[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.11*0.89} = 4.42[/tex]

(a) What is the (approximate) probability that X is at most 30

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 30 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 30.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 30.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{30.5 - 22}{4.42}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.92[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.92[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9726.

0.9726 = 97.26% approximate probability that X is at most 30
