A jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint. Each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw. What is the probability that you get exactly the following sequence: candy—mintmcandy, in that order?
(a) 0.0300.
(b) 0.0530.
(c) 0.1607.
(d) 1.2143.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint, and each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw, to determine what is the probability that you get exactly the sequence candy-mint-candy, in that order, the following calculation should be performed:

4 + 7 + 3 = 14

7/14 x 3/14 x 7/14 = X

0.5 x 0.2142 x 0.5 = X

0.053 = X

Therefore, the probability that the chosen sequence will be obtained is 0.0530, or 5.3%.

Find a formula for the general term an of the sequence, assuming that the pattern of the first few terms continues. text({)1, 1/4, 1/16, 1/64, 1/256, ... text(})

Answers

Answer:

[tex]T_n = \frac{1}{4^{n-1}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]({)1, 1/4, 1/16, 1/64, 1/256, ... (})[/tex]

Required

The general term

The given sequence is geometric.

So first, we calculate the common ratio (r)

[tex]r = T_2/T_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]r = 1/4 \div 1[/tex]

[tex]r = 1/4[/tex]

The function is then calculated using:

[tex]T_n =T_1 * r^{n-1}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]T_n =1 * 1/4^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]T_n = \frac{1}{4^{n-1}}[/tex]

The marked price of a bicycle is Rs 2000. If the shopkeeper allows some discount and a customer
bought it for Rs 1921 including 13% VAT, how much amount was given as the discount?

Answers

Answer:

Discount amount = $328.73

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is the calculation for the discount amount:

The marked price of bicycle = 2000

Purchase price = Rs 1921

VAT = 13%

First find the purchase price excluding VAT = 1921  - (13% of 1921) = 1671.27

Discount amount = 2000 - 1671.27

Discount amount = $328.73

A sports company has the following production function for a certain product, where p is the number of units produced with x units of labor and y units of capital.
p(x,y)=2500x1/5y1/5
Find:
1. Number of units produced with 26 units of labor and 1333 units of capital.
2. Marginal productivities.
3. Evaluate the marginal productivities at x=25, and y=1333

Answers

Answer:

(a) 20226 units

(b) Marginal productivities

[tex]P_x =2500x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P_y =2500 x^\frac{1}{5} y^{-\frac{4}{5}}[/tex]

(c) Evaluation of the marginal productivities

[tex]P_x =803[/tex]

[tex]P_y = 15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Solving (a): P(x,y) when x = 26 and y = 1333

[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes

[tex]P(26,1333) = 2500*26^\frac{1}{5}*1333^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P(26,1333) = 20226[/tex] --- approximated

Solving (b): The marginal productivities

To do this, we simply calculate Px and Py

Differentiate x to give Px, so we have:

[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes

[tex]P_x =2500 * x^{\frac{1}{5}-1} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P_x =2500 * x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P_x =2500x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Differentiate y to give Py, so we have:

[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes

[tex]P_y =2500 * x^\frac{1}{5} & y^{\frac{1}{5}-1}[/tex]

[tex]P_y =2500 x^\frac{1}{5} y^{-\frac{4}{5}}[/tex]

Solving (c): Px and Py when x = 25 and y = 1333

[tex]P_x =2500x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes

[tex]P_x =2500 * 25^{-\frac{4}{5}} * 1333^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P_x =803[/tex] --- approximated

[tex]P_y =2500 x^\frac{1}{5} y^{-\frac{4}{5}}[/tex] becomes

[tex]P_y =2500 * 25^\frac{1}{5} * 1333^\frac{-4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P_y = 15[/tex]

Look at the exponitial factor. If it is like 10^2 or like 10^10 the number is very big because it is raised to a very big power. Oppisitely, when it is rasied to a negative number, the number producted will have many decimal places. For example 10^-1 is literaly 0.1.

An urn contains 2 small pink balls, 7 small purple balls, and 6 small white balls.
Three balls are selected, one after the other, without replacement.
Find the probability that all three balls are purple
Express your answer as a decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

The probability is P = 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

2 pink balls

7 purple balls

6 white balls

So the total number of balls is just:

2 + 7 + 6 = 15

We want to find the probability of randomly picking 3 purple balls (without replacement).

For the first pick:

Here all the balls have the same probability of being drawn from the urn, so the probability of getting a purple one is equal to the quotient between the number of purple balls (7) and the total number of balls (15)

p₁ = 7/15

Second:

Same as before, notice that because the balls are not replaced, now there are 6 purple balls in the urn, and a total of 14 balls, so in this case the probability is:

p₂ = 6/14

third:

Same as before, this time there are 5 purple balls in the urn and 13 balls in total, so here the probability is:

p₃ = 5/13

The joint probability (the probability of these 3 events happening) is equal to the product between the individual probabilities, so we have:

P = p₁*p₂*p₃ = (7/15)*(6/14)*(5/13)  = 0.08

A's salary is 50% more than B's. How
much percent is B's salary less than A's?
a. 33(1/4)% b. 33(1/3)% c. 33(1/2)% d. 33%​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 33 1/3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A's salary is 50% more than B's, to determine how much percent is B's salary less than A's, the following calculation must be performed:

Salary A = B + 50

Salary B = 100

Salary A = 100 + 50 = 150

150 = 100

100 = X

100 x 100/150 = X

10,000 / 150 = X

66.666 = X

100 - 66,666 = 33,333

B. 33 1/3%.

Lower quartile, Q1 = 50 (starting point of the box)

Median (Q2), 50th percentile = 70 (vertical line in between the box)

The upper quartile marks the 75th percentile, Q3 = 81 (end point of the box)

The total distribution is 100% and hence, the percentage above the score 81 will be :

The principal P is borrowed at a simple interest rate are for a period of time T. Find the loans future value A, or the total amount due at time T

Answers

Answer:

The total amount due after five years is $57,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that simple interest is given by the formula:

[tex]\displaystyle A=P(1+rt)[/tex]

Where A is the final amount, P is the principal amount, r is the rate, and t is the time (in years).

Since we are investing a principal amount of $38,000 at a rate of 10.0% for five years, P = 38000, r = 0.1, and t = 5. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle A=38000(1+(0.1)(5))[/tex]

Evaluate. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\$ 57,000[/tex]

The total amount due after five years is $57,000.
