Assume that there are an equal number of births in each month so that the probability is that a person chosen at random was born in May. A group of 20 friends meet monthly and celebrate the birthdays for that month. What is the probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2773 = 27.73% probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a birthday in May, or they do not. The probability of a person having a birthday in May is independent of any other person. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

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.

Probability of a person being in May:

May has 31 days in a year of 365. So

[tex]p = \frac{31}{365} = 0.0849[/tex]

Group of 20 friends:

This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]

What is the probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays?

This is P(X = 2).

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

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.0849)^{2}.(0.9151)^{18} = 0.2773[/tex]

0.2773 = 27.73% probability that at the May celebration, exactly two members of the group have May birthdays

What number should be added to both sides of the equation to complete the square?
x2 - 6x = 5

Answers

Answer:

Ans: 9

pls mark as brainliest!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Completing the square is done as follows:

1. Write the equation in a way that the constants are in the right side while the terms with x are on the left.  

x^2 – 6x = 5

2. Make sure that the coefficient of the x^2 term is 1.

x^2 – 6x = 5

3. Adding a term to both sides that will complete the square in the left side. This is done by dividing the coefficient of the x term by 2 and squaring it. Note: The same amount should be added to the right side to balance the equation.

x^2 – 6x + 9 = 5 + 9

(x-3)^2 = 14

Therefore, 9 should be added to both sides to complete the square.

____________
A) (-6,7,14)
B) (2,-3,5)
C) infinite solutions
D) no solutions

Answers

Answer:

D- No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x for x+2y−z=3: x=3−2y+z

then Simplify

then Isolate y for −5y+4z+6=6: y= 4z 5 −5y+4z+6=6 Subtract 6 from both sides −5y+4z+6−6=6−6 Simplify −5y+4z=0 Subtract 4z from both sides −5y+4z−4z=0−4z Simplify −5y=−4z Divide both sides by −5 −5y −5 = −4z −5 Simplify y= 4z 5

Answers

Answer:

I dont know the experssion but I will give you steps to figure it out!

Step-by-step explanation:

Before you evaluate an algebraic expression, you need to simplify it. This will make all your calculations much easier. Here are the basic steps to follow to simplify an algebraic expression:

remove parentheses by multiplying factors

use exponent rules to remove parentheses in terms with exponents

combine like terms by adding coefficients

combine the constants

When simplifying an expression, the first thing to look for is whether you can clear any parentheses. Often, you can use the distributive property to clear parentheses, by multiplying the factors times the terms inside the parentheses. In this expression, we can use the distributive property to get rid of the first two sets of parentheses.

Now we can get rid of the parentheses in the term with the exponents by using the exponent rules we learned earlier. When a term with an exponent is raised to a power, we multiply the exponents For example, (x2)2 becomes x4.

The next step in simplifying is to look for like terms and combine them. The terms 5x and 15x are like terms, because they have the same variable raised to the same power

Finally, we look for any constants that we can combine.

Now our expression is simplified. Just one more thing -- usually we write an algebraic expression in a certain order. We start with the terms that have the largest exponents and work our way down to the constants. Using the commutative property of addition, we can rearrange the terms and put this expression in correct order, like this.

Drag and drop number tiles into the boxes to show the median, first quartile (Q1) and third quartile (Q3)
of the data on the dot plot.

Answers

Answer:

Median = 5

Q1 = 2

Q3 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️On the dot plot, each dot represents a data point.

The median is the middle data point which is the 6th data point on the dot plot.

This:

Median = 5 (6th data point)

✔️Q1 is the middle value of the lower set of data points before the median = the 3rd data point

The 3rd data point is 2

Therefore,

Q1 = 2

✔️Q3 is the middle value of the upper set of data points after the median = the 9th data point.

The 9th data point = 10

Therefore,

Q3 = 10

A university investigation was conducted to determine whether women and men complete medical school in significantly different amounts of time, on the average. Two independent random samples were selected and the following summary information concerning times to completion of medical school computed:

Women Men
Sample size 90 100
Sample mean 8.4 years 8.5 years
Sample std 0.6 year 0.5 years

Required:
Perform the appropriate test to see if there is a significant difference in time to completion of medical school between women and men.

Answers

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Null \ H_{yp}: \mu_{men} = \mu_{women}\\\\Alt \ Hyp: \mu_{men} \neq \mu_{women}\\\\Std\ Error\ (SE) = \sqrt{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}) + (\frac{s_2^2}{n_2})} \\\\[/tex]

                          [tex]= \sqrt{(\frac{0.62}{90}) + (\frac{0.52}{100})} \\\\= 0.08[/tex]

[tex]test\ statistic \ t = \frac{(x_1 - x_2)}{SE} = \frac{(8.4 - 8.5)}{0.08} = -1.25[/tex]

Degrees of freedom

[tex]= \frac{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2})^2}{\frac{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1})^2}{(n_1 - 1)}} + \frac{(\frac{s_2^2}{n_2)^2}}{(n_2 - 1)} \\\\= 174[/tex]

Considering a degree of 5% importance

T for df critical value = 174 and sig level = 0.05 is +1.973

Let area of refusal shall be  t < -1.973 or t > +1.973

Because statistical tests weren't in the refusal zone, they may not deny that zero but find that perhaps the argument how both women and men undergo med school is considerably different lengths of time is not significantly supported.

Radius, r = d/2 = 5 m

We need to find the lateral area of the cylinder. The formula for the lateral area of the cylinder is given by :

[tex]A=2\pi rh\\\\A=2\times \dfrac{22}{7} \times 5\times 14\\A=440\ m^2[/tex]
