The probability of being a universal donor is 6% (O-negative-blood type). Suppose that 6 people come to a blood drive.
a) What are the mean and standard deviation of the number of universal donors among the 6 people?
b) What is the probability that there are exactly three universal donors?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

a) The mean is of 0.36 and the standard deviation is of 0.58.

b) There is a 0.0036 = 0.36% probability that there are exactly three universal donors.

What is the binomial distribution formula?

The formula is:

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

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.n is the number of trials.p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

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

The values of the parameters are given as follows:

n = 6, p = 0.06.

Item a:

E(X) = np = 6 x 0.06 = 0.36.[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{6 \times 0.06 \times 0.94} = 0.58[/tex]

The mean is of 0.36 and the standard deviation is of 0.58.

Item b:

The probability is P(X = 3), hence:

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

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{6,3}.(0.06)^{3}.(0.94)^{3} = 0.0036[/tex]

There is a 0.0036 = 0.36% probability that there are exactly three universal donors.

Blackcap birds (Sylvia atricapilla) migrate out of Germany before wintertime. Prior to the 1960s, all members of a particular blackcap population flew to Spain, which had an abundant natural food source. Now, some members of the same blackcap population fly to the United Kingdom, where food placed in feeders by humans is abundant. The blackcaps return to the same forests in Germany to nest during the breeding season.
Some blackcaps that migrate to the United Kingdom have become distinguishable by certain physical and behavioral traits from blackcaps that migrate to Spain. Which of the following best predicts the effect on the blackcap population if humans in the United Kingdom continue to place food in feeders during the winter?
A- The blackcaps that migrate to Spain will selectively mate with the blackcaps that migrate to the United Kingdom, resulting in increased genetic variation in the blackcap population.
B- The blackcaps that migrate to the United Kingdom will become reproductively isolated from the blackcaps that migrate to Spain, resulting in speciation in the blackcap population.
C- The blackcaps in Spain and the United Kingdom will migrate to other geographical locations in search of potential mating partners, resulting in a smaller blackcap population in Germany.
D- The blackcaps will begin nesting at their wintering sites in Spain or the United Kingdom, resulting in a larger blackcap population migrating back to Germany after the breeding season has ended.

Answers

Answer:

D- The blackcaps will begin nesting at their wintering sites in Spain or the United Kingdom, resulting in a larger blackcap population migrating back to Germany after the breeding season has ended.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the inhabitants of Spain and the United Kingdom placing feeders out for the blackcaps, the birds in their nesting sites during the winter will have food to eat, meaning a bigger population of the Blackcaps when they return to their main home in Germany.

This best predicts the effect on the blackcap population if humans in the United Kingdom continue to place food in feeders during the winter.

Answer:

A. 232 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Box A is a cuboid/rectangular prism.

Surface area of box A = 2(LW + LH + WH)

L = 10 in

W = 2 in

H = 8 in

Surface area = 2(10*2 + 10*8 + 2*8)

= 2(20 + 80 + 16) = 2(116)

Surface area = 232 in²

B. Surface area of B = surface area of cube

Surface area of cube = 6s²

s = 6 in

Surface area = 6(6²)

= 6(36)

= 216 in²

write the ratio as a fraction

Answers

Answer:

20/21

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite / Adjacent = RT / AR

You have to find RT

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

AR^2 + TR^2 = AT^2

21^2 + TR^2 = 29^2

441 + TR^2 = 841             Subtract 441 from both sides

TR^2 = 841 - 441

TR^2 = 400

sqrt(TR^2) = sqrt(400)

TR = 20

Ratio: TR / AR = 20/29

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadrants start from Quadrant I (in the top left) and continue counter-clockwise to Quadrant II, Quadrant III, and Quadrant IV

Quadrant I = (+,+)

Quadrant II = (-,+)

Quadrant III = (-,-)

Quadrant IV = (+,-)

A) The number should be 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The differences of squares formula is x²-a²=(x+a)(x-a)

What is the simple interest rate for a $5,000 investment
that become $5,750 at the end of 2 years?

Answers

Answer: the answer is r=7.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

You get the formula A=P(1+nr) where A is the accumulated amount: 5750, P is the principal: 5000, n is the amount of years: 2, and r is the rate: unknown

Now you plug in what you know:

5750=5000(1+2r)

Divide 5000 on both sides

Decimal form: 1.15=1+2r

Subtract -1 on both sides

0.15=2r

And lastly divide by 2 on both sides

0.075=r

BUT WHEN FINDING THE RATE ALWAYS MAKE IT A PERCENTAGE

r=0.075*100=7.5%
