For a certain river, suppose the drought length Y is the number of consecutive time intervals in which the water supply remains below a critical value y0 (a deficit), preceded by and followed by periods in which the supply exceeds this critical value (a surplus). An article proposes a geometric distribution with p = 0.365 for this random variable. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

a. What is the probability that a drought lasts at most 3 intervals?
b. What is the probability that the length of a drought exceeds its mean value by at least one standard deviation?

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

a). P(X = x)

     =   [tex]$p(1-p)^x$[/tex]  for x = 0, 1, 2, ....

   P(x ≤ 3) = 0.837

b). Expectation = [tex]$\frac{(1-p)}{p}$[/tex]

                        = 1.7397

  Variance = [tex]$\frac{(1-p)}{p^2}$[/tex]

                 = 4.7663726

  Standard deviation = 2.1832

 Therefore, mean + standard deviation

                  = 1.7397 + 2.1832

                  = 3.9229

[tex]$P(x > 3.9229) = 0.1626$[/tex]

So the required P = 2 x 0.1626

                             = 0.325

a)Loss is denoted by a negative integer and profit is denoted by a positive integer. A
cement company earns a profit of ₹ 10 per bag of white cement and a loss of ₹ 5 per
bag of grey cement. The company sells 325 bags of white cement and 500 bags of
grey cement. What is its profit or loss?

Answers

Answer:

There was a profit of ₹750.

Step-by-step explanation:

325 bags of white cement

Profit of 10 for each bag of white cement. So

[tex]P = 325*10 = 3250[/tex]

500 bags of grey cement.

Loss of 5 for each bag of grey cement. So

[tex]L = 5*500 = 2500[/tex]

What is its profit or loss?

3250 - 2500 = 750

Positive, so profit. There was a profit of ₹750.

h(x) = — 3х + 2
-7

Answers

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following functions:

[tex]g(x) = x^2 + 4 + 2x[/tex]

[tex]h(x) = -3x + 2[/tex]

(g•h) (1)

The multiplication is:

[tex](g \times h)(1) = g(1) \times h(1)[/tex]

So

[tex]g(x) = 1^2 + 4 + 2(1) = 7[/tex]

[tex]h(1) = -3(1) + 2 = -3 + 2 = -1[/tex]

Then

[tex]g(1) \times h(1) = 7(-1) = -7[/tex]

So -7 is the answer.

A fish tank initially contains 15 liters of pure water. Brine of constant, but unknown, concentration of salt is flowing in at 4 liters per minute. The solution is mixed well and drained at 4 liters per minute. Let xx be the amount of salt, in grams, in the fish tank after tt minutes have elapsed. Find a formula for the rate of change in the amount of salt, dx/dtdx/dt, in terms of the amount of salt in the solution xx and the unknown concentration of incoming brine cc. dxdt

Answers

Answer:

dx/dt = 4c - 4x/15

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find a formula for the rate of change in the amount of salt, dx/dtdx/dt, in terms of the amount of salt in the solution

Let c be the concentration of the incoming brine in grams per liter. Since it flows in at a rate of 4 liters per minute, the mass flow in is thus 4m.

Let x be the mass of salt present at time, t. The concentration of salt present at time, t is thus mass of salt/volume of tank = x/15. Since the well mixed solution is drained at 4 liters per minute, the mass flow out is thus 4x/15.

The net rate of change of amount of salt dx/dt = mass flow in - mass flow out

dx/dt = 4c - 4x/15

A Little League baseball coach wants to know if his team is representative of other teams in scoring runs. Nationally, the average number of runs scored by a Little League team in a game is 5.7. He chooses five games at random and finds the mean number of runs scored is 7.4 with a sample standard deviation of 2.88.

Required:
Is it likely that his team's scores is different than the national average?

Answers

Answer:

That result implies that t(s) is in the acceptance region for H₀ then we accept H₀, there is not statistics difference between the LL team and the national average

Step-by-step explanation:

The National average number of runs scored by a LL team is

μ   =  5.7

Sample Information:

size sample   n = 5

sample average   x  =  7.4

sample standard deviation    s  =  2.88

Is required to investigate if  that sample average is statistically different from the National average

We will do a test with 95 % of confidence Interval that means

significance level α = 5 %   or α = 0.05.

The sample size is 5 then even when we assume normal distribution the sample size indicates that we need to use t-student distribution. Furthermore, as the question is if the sample average is different from the national the test will be a two-tail test.

Then  α = 0.05    α/2  =  0.025

df  =  n  -  1     df  =  5  -  1     df  =  4

Then from t-student table we get  t(c)  =  2.132

Hypothesis test:

Null Hypothesis                                  H₀              x  =  μ

Alternative Hypothesis                      Hₐ              x  ≠  μ

To calculate t (s)

t(s)  = ( x  -   μ ) / s/√n

t(s)  = ( 7.4  -  5.7  )* 2.24 / 2.88

t(s)  =  1.7* 2.24 / 2.88

t(s)  = 1.32

Comparing  t(s)  and  t(c)

1.32 < 2.132

That result implies that t(s) is in the acceptance region for H₀ then we accept H₀, there is not statistics difference between the LL team and the national average

Answers

Answer:

0.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the probability distribution :

Payment Methd: Cash Credit Cards Debit Cards Proportion : ____0.11 ____ 0.43 _____0.21

The probability that a customer did not pay with debit card can be obtained as :

If customer did not pay with debit card, then he would have paid with any of the other payment methods

This Can best be obtained using the complement method

P(not debit card) = 1 - P(debit card)

P(debit card) = 0.21

P(not debit card) = 1 - 0.21

P(not debit card) = 0.79

The diameter of a pipe is normally distributed, with a mean of 0.8 inch and a variance of 0.0025. What is the probability that the diameter of a randomly selected pipe will exceed 0.9 inch?

Answers

Answer:

0.02275

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation is the square root of variance

Standard deviation= Square(0.0025)= 0.05

Because of the normally distributed, the z- score for 0.9 inches is:

(0.9-0.8)/0.05= 2

-> P(x<= 0.9)= P(2) = 0.97725

-> P (x>= 0.9)= 1-0.97725 = 0.02275
