f(x) = -2 ( 1 - 1/4 x ) compute f( -3)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-3 1/2 or -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

* means multiply

just put 3 where the x is

so

f(x) = -2 ( 1 - 1/4 x )

f( -3) = -2 ( 1 - 1/4 * -3 )

f( -3) = -2 ( 1 3/4 )

f( -3) = - 3 1/2

Bowl B1 contains one white and two red chips; bowl B2 contains two white and two red chips; bowl B3 contains one white and four red chips. The probabilities of selecting bowl B1, B2, or B3 are 0.3, 0.2, and 0.5, respectively. A bowl is selected using these probabilities and a chip is then drawn at random. Find:

a. P(W), the probability of drawing a white chip.
b. P(B1 Given W), the conditional probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.3 = 30% probability of drawing a white chip.

b) 0.3333 = 33.33% probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

a. P(W), the probability of drawing a white chip.

1/3(one white out of 3) of 0.3(from B1).

1/2(two white out of 4) of 0.2(from B2).

1/5(one white out of 5) of 0.5(from B3). So

[tex]P(W) = 0.3333*0.3 + 0.5*0.2 + 0.2*0.5 = 0.3[/tex]

0.3 = 30% probability of drawing a white chip.

b. P(B1 Given W), the conditional probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

The probability of drawing a white chip from B1 is 1/3 out of 0.3, so:

[tex]P(B1 \cap W) = 0.3\frac{1}{3} = 0.1[/tex]

Then the conditional probability is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1}{0.3} = 0.3333[/tex]

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that bowl B1 had been selected, given that a white chip was drawn.

Find the domain and range of the function y = √x-3 + 6

Answers

Answer:

Domain: [tex][3,\infty)[/tex]

Range: [tex][6,\infty)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean [tex]y=\sqrt{x-3} +6[/tex]?

Take note of how x cannot be less than 3 because it would result in a negative number under the radical, which isn't real. However, x CAN be 3 because [tex]\sqrt{3-3}+6=\sqrt{0}+6=0+6=6[/tex] which is real.

Therefore, the domain of the function is [tex][3,\infty)[/tex]

As for the range of the function, we saw previously that the minimum of the domain resulted in the minimum of the range, which was 6.

Therefore, the range of the function is [tex][6,\infty)[/tex]

A person takes a multiple-choice exam in which each question has five possible answers. Suppose that the person has no idea about the answers to three of the questions and simply chooses randomly for each one.

Required:
a. What is the probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly?
b. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly?
c. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly?
d. What is the probability that the person will answer no questions correctly?
e. Suppose that the person gets one point of credit for each correct answer and that 1/3 point is deducted for each incorrect answer. What is the expected value of the person’s score for the three questions?

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.008 = 0.8% probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly.

b. 0.096 = 9.6% probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly.

c. 0.384 = 38.4% probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly.

d. 0.512 = 51.2% probability that the person will answer no questions correctly.

e. The expected value of the person’s score for the three questions is -0.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the person answers it correctly, or they do not. The probability of a person answering a question correctly is independent of any other question. 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.

Each question has five possible answers.

Person has no idea which option is correct, so the probability of answering correctly is:

[tex]p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]

Three questions:

This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

a. What is the probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly?

This is [tex]P(X = 3)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{0} = 0.008[/tex]

0.008 = 0.8% probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly.

b. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly?

This is [tex]P(X = 2)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{1} = 0.096[/tex]

0.096 = 9.6% probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly.

c. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly?

This is [tex]P(X = 1)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{3,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{2} = 0.384[/tex]

0.384 = 38.4% probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly.

d. What is the probability that the person will answer no questions correctly?

This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.512[/tex]

0.512 = 51.2% probability that the person will answer no questions correctly.

e. Suppose that the person gets one point of credit for each correct answer and that 1/3 point is deducted for each incorrect answer. What is the expected value of the person’s score for the three questions?

The expected number of correct answer is:

[tex]E(X) = np = 3*0.2 = 0.6[/tex]

And the expected number of wrong answers is 3 - 0.6 = 2.4. So, the expected score is:

[tex]S(x) = 0.6 - \frac{2.4}{3} = 0.6 - 0.8 = -0.2[/tex]

The expected value of the person’s score for the three questions is -0.2.

How much money will Grace save per 100100100 ounces if she purchases the larger bottle

Answers

Answer:

$1.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the cost per ounce of the larger bottle

cost per ounce = cost of larger bottle / total ounces

$12.99 / 150 = $0.0866

Multiply cost per ounce by 100

$0.0866 x 100 = $8.66

Subtract the above figure from 9.99

9.99 -  $8.66 = $1.33

What’s the ara of each figure?

Answers

Answer:

433 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the figure into 2 rectangles

Area of the figure = area of the bigger rectangle + area of smaller rectangle

✔️Area of bigger rectangle = L*W

L = 29 in.

W = 13 in.

Area of the bigger rectangle = 29*13

= 377 in.²

✔️Area of the smaller rectangle = L*W

L = 7 in.

W = 8 in.

Area of the bigger rectangle = 7*8

= 56 in.²

✅Area of the figure = 377 + 56 = 433 in.²

Mason randomly chooses a card from a standard deck of playing cards. What is the probability that it is not an ace, given it is a red card

Answers

Answer:

there are 52 cards in a deck so the chance is a red card (or not a red card) is 26 out of 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is 12/13

The probability that the selected card is not an ace but a red card is 12/13

What is Probability?

The probability that an event will occur is measured by the ratio of favorable examples to the total number of situations possible

The value of probability lies between 0 and 1

Given data ,

Let the probability of the selected card is not an ace but a red card be P

Now , the equation will be

Mason randomly chooses a card from a standard deck of playing cards

So , the probability that the card is a red card is

There are 26 red cards in the deck of 52 cards

So , the probability of selecting a red card = 26/52

Now , from the 26 red cards , the probability that the card is not an ace would be = 26 - ( Ace of hearts + Ace of diamonds )

And ,

The probability of the selected card is not an ace but a red card P = 24/26

The probability of the selected card is not an ace but a red card P = 12/13

Therefore , the value of P is 12/13

Hence , the probability is 12/13

Suppose you wanted to find a critical test statistic for a confidence interval for the slope of the regression line. How many degrees of freedom would you need to use?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the regression line is not given.

However, I will give a general explanation of how to calculate the degree of freedom of a slope of regression line

The degree of freedom is calculated using:

[tex]df = n - k[/tex]

Where

[tex]k \to number\ of\ parameters[/tex]

[tex]n \to sample\ size.[/tex]

For a regression line; there are two parameters that are being estimates;

The intercept and the slope. So:

[tex]k = 2[/tex]

Hence, the degree of freedom of a slope of regression line is:

[tex]df = n -2[/tex]

So; if for example

[tex]n =101[/tex]

the degree of freedom will be:

[tex]df =101 - 2[/tex]

[tex]df =99[/tex]
