A salesperson uses random digit dialing to call people and try to interest them in applying for a charge card for a large department store chain. From past experience, she is successful on 2% of her cals. in typical working, she makes 50 calls. Let X be the number of calls on which she is unsuccessful.

a. This is binomial distribution. Explain using the BINS method why this is so.
b. Find the mean and standard deviation of X. Leave answer to 4 d.p
c. Find the probablity of P(X>or equal to 48)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)

In this question, for each call, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is successful, or it is not, so binary outcomes. For each call, the probability of a success or failure is the same, which means that the trials are independent, having the same value of p. And the number of trials, which is 50, is fixed. This means that this is a binomial distribution.

b) The mean is 1 and the standard deviation is 0.9899.

c) [tex]P(X \geq 48) = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

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]

From past experience, she is successful on 2% of her calls.

This means that [tex]p = 0.02[/tex]

50 calls.

This means that [tex]n = 50[/tex]

a. This is binomial distribution. Explain using the BINS method why this is so.

BINS: Binary outcomes, Independent Trials, n is fixed, and same value of p for all trials.

In this question, for each call, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is successful, or it is not, so binary outcomes. For each call, the probability of a success or failure is the same, which means that the trials are independent, having the same value of p. And the number of trials, which is 50, is fixed. This means that this is a binomial distribution.

b. Find the mean and standard deviation of X.

The mean is:

[tex]E(X) = np = 50*0.02 = 1[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{50*0.02*0.98} = 0.9899[/tex]

The mean is 1 and the standard deviation is 0.9899.

c. Find the probablity of P(X>or equal to 48)

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 48) = P(X = 48) + P(X = 49) + P(X = 50)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 48) = C_{50,48}.(0.02)^{48}.(0.98)^{2} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 49) = C_{50,49}.(0.02)^{49}.(0.98)^{1} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 50) = C_{50,50}.(0.02)^{50}.(0.98)^{0} \approx 0[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \geq 48) = 0[/tex]

Answers

The domain of the function F(x) = 3 [tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex] is {x : x ≥ 2 and x is a real number}.

What is Function?

A function is a relation from a set A to a set B where the elements in set A only maps to one and only one image in set B. No elements in set A has more than one image in set B.

Given function is,

F(x) = 3 [tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex]

Domain of this function is all the values of x for which the function is defined.

The expression [tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex] is defined only when the value of x - 2 is positive.

x - 2 > 0 ⇒ x > 2

So the function will be defined for all x > 2.

Hence the domain of the function is the set of all x such that x > 2.

Ms. Namgung's electric hedge trimmer has a 10-foot cord. Each of her extension cords is 50 feet long. The farthest hedge is 40 yards from the electrical outlet. How many extension cords will Ms. Namgung use to trim all the hedges? Explain.

Answers

Answer: She will need 3 extension cords.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the farthest hedge is 40 yards away, that means it is 120 feet away because 1 yard equals 3 feet. If the cord on her trimmer is 10 feet and her extension cords are 50 feet long, 10+50+50+50= 160 feet. This means she would need 3 extension cords. 2 extension cords would not be long enough.

At a bakery, 55 chocolate chip cookies were burned. if that was 15% of the day's production, how many total cookie did they make that day?

Answers

The total number of cookies that was made that day given that 55 which is 15% was burnt is 360.

How to solve for the number of cookies made

We know that the number of burned cookies is 55, and that this represents 15% of the total production for the day.

We can use this information to set up a proportion to find the total number of cookies made that day.

Burned cookies / Total cookies = 15% / 100%

55 / X = 15/100

To find the total number of cookies made, we can cross-multiply and divide:

X = (55 * 100) / 15

X = 365

So, the bakery made a total of 365 cookies that day.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is one that has the form y=mx+b in algebra. B is the slope, and m is the y-intercept. It's usual to refer to the previous clause as a "linear equation with two variables" because y and x are variables. The two-variable linear equations known as bivariate linear equations. There are several instances of linear equations: 2x - 3 = 0, 2y = 8, m + 1 = 0, x/2 = 3, x + y = 2, and 3x - y + z = 3. It is referred to as being linear when an equation has the form y=mx+b, where m stands for the slope and b for the y-intercept.When an equation has the formula y=mx+b, with m denoting the slope and b the y-intercept, it is referred to as being linear.

Toll Brothers is a luxury home builder that would like to test the hypothesis that the average size of new homes exceeds 2,400 square feet. A random sample of 36 newly constructed homes had an average of 2,510 square feet with a sample standard deviation of 480 square feet. Conduct a test of hypothesis at a 1% level of significance to see if indeed the average size of new homes exceeds 2,400 square feet.

Answers

Answer:

Since the pvalue of the test is 0.09 > 0.01, we do not reject the null hypothesis that the average size of new homes is of 2400 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Toll Brothers is a luxury home builder that would like to test the hypothesis that the average size of new homes exceeds 2,400 square feet. Test to see if the average size of new homes exceeds 2,400 square feet.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the average is of 2400 square feet, that is:

[tex]H_o: \mu = 2400[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the average is greater than 2400 square feet, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu > 2400[/tex]

The test statistic is:

Since we have the standard deviation for the sample, we use the t-distribution.

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

2400 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 2400[/tex]

A random sample of 36 newly constructed homes had an average of 2,510 square feet with a sample standard deviation of 480 square feet.

This means that [tex]n = 36, X = 2510, s = 480[/tex]

Test statistic:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{2510 - 2400}{\frac{480}{\sqrt{36}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 1.375[/tex]

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean of at least 2510, which is the pvalue of t = 1.375 with 36 - 1 = 35 degrees of freedom, using a one-tailed test.

With the help of a calculator, this pvalue is of 0.09

Since the pvalue of the test is 0.09 > 0.01, we do not reject the null hypothesis that the average size of new homes is of 2400 square feet.

A mathematical equation is a formula that links two statements by indicating their equivalence with the equal sign (=). A mathematical statement that proves the equality of two mathematical expressions is known as an equation in algebra. For instance, the components 3x + 5 and 14 in the equation 3x + 5 = 14 are separated by an equal sign. The relationship between two sentences on either side of a letter is expressed mathematically. There is frequently only one variable, which doubles as the symbol. say that 2x - 4 Equals 2.

=>y-6/x = 2/-2

=> y-6=-1(x)

y=-x+6

(-2, 8) and the red line pass through them (-3,7). The red line's equation can be calculated as,

y-8/x- (-2) = 8-7 /-2-(-3)
