A coin is tossed 5 times; find the probability of getting at least 1 tail. Would you consider this event likely to happen?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.96875

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of obtaining at least one tail on a toss of coin 5 times ;

P(success) in a coin toss = 1/2 = 0.5

Using the binomial distribution formula :

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

P(at least one tail) = 1 - p(0 tails)

P( 0 tails) = 5C0 * 0.5^0 * 0.5^(5-0)

= 1 * 1 * 0.03125

= 0.03125

P(at leat 1 tail) = 1 - 0.03125

P(atleast 1 tail) = 0.96875

Answer:

c becues its a bigger number

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A.  (-1, -3)

This point is on the boundary line, but the boundary line is a dashed line. So this point is not part of the solution. The dashed line is like an electric fence you can get closer to, but you cannot touch it. It's due to the fact there isn't any "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign. So that's why (-1,-3) is not in the solution set. If the boundary line was solid, then (-1,-3) would be a solution.

Points like (5,1), (20,-5) and (0,0) are solutions because they are in the pink shaded region, and they aren't on the boundary.

A polling agency is investigating the voter support for a ballot measure in an upcoming city election. The agency will select a random sample of 400 voters from one region, Region A, of the city. Assume that the population proportion of voters who would support the ballot measure in Region A is 0.46.

Required:
What is the probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50?

Answers

Answer:

0.0544

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

The population proportion of the voters that would support the ballot measures in region A = 0.46

The random sample n = 400 voters

The required probability can therefore be computed as follows:

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ \dfrac{p_1-P_1}{\sqrt{\dfrac{P_1(1-P_1)}{n_1}}}>\dfrac{0.5-0.46}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.46(1-0.46)}{400}}} \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ Z>\dfrac{0.04}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.46(0.54)}{400}}} \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ Z>\dfrac{0.04}{\sqrt{6.21\times 10^{-4}}} \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ Z>1.605 \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = 1- P [ Z<1.605 ][/tex]

Using the Excel Function =NORMDIST(1.605)

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = 1- 0.9456[/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] =0.0544[/tex]

Therefore, the required probability = 0.0544

10 minutes? 13 minutes?

Answer:

76.384 ;

68.389 ;

65.369;

62.749

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

r(Q) = 60+ 0.2Q ; amount of drug on patient's body, Q and heart rate (r)

The amount of drug in the patient's body, Q, (in milligrams) t minutes after

the drug has been administered is given by Q(t) = 250(0.8)^t

a. What is the heart rate of this patient

5 minutes after the drug was administered?

t = 5 ; quantity of drug on patient's body ;

Q(5) = 250(0.8)^5 = 81.92

Q = 81.92

Heart rate (r)

r(81.92) = 60+ 0.2(81.92) = 76.384

t = 8 minutes?

Q(8) = 250(0.8)^8 = 41.94304

Q = 41.94304

Heart rate (r)

r(41.94304) = 60+ 0.2(41.94304) = 68.389

t = 10 minutes

Q(10) = 250(0.8)^10 = 26.8435456

Q = 26.8435456

Heart rate (r)

r(26.8435456) = 60+ 0.2(26.8435456) = 65.369

t = 13 minutes

Q(13) = 250(0.8)^13 = 13.7438953472

Q = 13.7438953472

Heart rate (r)

r(13.7438953472) = 60+ 0.2(13.7438953472) = 62.749

Step-by-step explanation:

−5(2)(−4)=2(x−8)

Simplify both sides of the equation.

−5(2)(−4)=2(x−8)

−5(2)(−4)=(2)(x)+(2)(−8)(Distribute)

40=2x+−16

40=2x−16

Step 2: Flip the equation.

2x−16=40

Step 3: Add 16 to both sides.

2x−16+16=40+16

2x=56

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2 = 56/2

x=28

Distribute the -5 to 2x and -4 which would be: -10x+20=2(x-8)
Then distribute the 2 to x and -8 which would be: -10x+20=2x-16
Subtract 20 from both sides:-10x+20=2x-16
-20. -20
10x= 2x-36
Subtract 2x from both sides: -10x=2x-36
-2x. -2x
-12x=-36
Divide -12 from both sides: -12x=-36
-12/-12= -36/-12
So in the end x=3

500 meters
20
A 20
B) 170
180
D 250

Answers

We are given:

a right angled triangle with the angle of elevation = 20 degrees

Hypotenuse of the Triangle = 500 m

Finding the change in Elevation:

We will use trigonometry in the given triangle to find the length of the perpendicular of the triangle

Using trigonometry, we found that the perpendicular = 500 * Sin 20 degrees

Perpendicular = 500 * 0.342           [sin(20 degrees) = 0.342]

Perpendicular = 171 m

The closest value to 171m in the given options is 170m

Therefore, 170m (option B) is correct

Answers

Answer:

y=-2x+15

Step-by-step explanation

A perpendicular line always has the opposite reciprocal slope of the line it is 90 degrees from.

Since the slope of the other line is 1/2, the slope of this line must be -2. And with the slope of a line -2 with point (4,7), you can start plugging in numbers.

y=-2x+b

7= -2(4)+b

7= -8+b

15=b

Therefore, the equation of the line is y=-2x+15

Each airline passenger and his or her luggage must be checked to determine whether he or she is carrying weapons on to the airplane. Suppose that at O’hare International Airport, an average of 10 passengers per minute arrive (interarrival times are exponential). To check passengers for weapons, the airport must have a checkpoint consisting of a metal detector and baggage X-ray machine. Whenever a checkpoint is in operation, two employees are required. A checkpoint can check an average of 12 passengers per minute (the time to check a passenger is exponential). Under the assumption that the airport has only one checkpoint, answer the following questions:

a. What is the probability that a passenger will have to wait before being checked for weapons?
b. On the average, how many passengers are waiting in line to enter the checkpoint?
c. On the average, how long will a passenger spend at the checkpoint?

Answers

Answer:

a

[tex]P_k = 0.83[/tex]

b

 [tex]N_{\mu} \approx 4 \ passengers[/tex]

c

[tex]T_{\lambda} = 0.5 \ minutes[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The average number of passengers that arrive per minute is [tex]\lambda = 10[/tex]

The average number of check that can be carried out in one minute is [tex]\mu= 12[/tex]

Generally the probability that a passenger will have to wait before being checked for weapons is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P_k = \frac{\lambda }{ \mu }[/tex]

=>    [tex]P_k = \frac{10 }{ 12}[/tex]

=>    [tex]P_k = 0.83[/tex]

Generally the number of passengers are waiting in line to enter the checkpoint is mathematically represented as

     [tex]N_{\mu} = \frac{\lambda^2}{\mu (\mu -\lambda) }[/tex]

=>  [tex]N_{\mu} = \frac{10^2}{12 (12 -10) }[/tex]

=>  [tex]N_{\mu} \approx 4 \ passengers[/tex]

Generally the average time a passenger spend at the checkpoint is mathematically represented as

      [tex]T_{\lambda} = \frac{ \frac{\lambda}{(\mu - \lambda)} }{ \lambda}[/tex]

=>   [tex]T_{\lambda} = \frac{ \frac{ 10}{(12 - 10)} }{10}[/tex]

=>   [tex]T_{\lambda} = 0.5 \ minutes[/tex]
