A venture capital company feels that the rate of return (X) on a proposed investment is approximately normally distributed with mean 30% and standard deviation 10%.
(a) Find the probability that the return will exceed 55%.
(b) Find the probability that the return will be less than 25%
(c) What is the expected value of the return?
(d) Find the 75th percentile of returns.
Answer:
a) 0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the return will exceed 55%.
b) 0.3085 = 30.85% probability that the return will be less than 25%
c) 30%.
d) The 75th percentile of returns is 36.75%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean 30% and standard deviation 10%.
This means that [tex]\mu = 30, \sigma = 10[/tex]
(a) Find the probability that the return will exceed 55%.
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 55. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{55 - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9938
1 - 0.9938 = 0.0062
0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the return will exceed 55%.
(b) Find the probability that the return will be less than 25%
p-value of Z when X = 25. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{25 - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3085
0.3085 = 30.85% probability that the return will be less than 25%.
(c) What is the expected value of the return?
The mean, that is, 30%.
(d) Find the 75th percentile of returns.
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]X - 30 = 0.675*10[/tex]
[tex]X = 36.75[/tex]
The 75th percentile of returns is 36.75%.

A club of 10 people wants to choose an executive board consisting of president, secretary, treasurer, and three other officers. In how many ways can this be done
Answer:
The number of ways = 151200
Step-by-step explanation:
Below is the calculation of the number of ways:
Total number of people = 10
Total number of posts = 6
The number of ways = 10P6
The number of ways = [tex]\frac{10!}{10! - 6!}[/tex]
The number of ways = 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5
The number of ways = 151200

Let T be the event that an adult admits to texting while driving and N be the event an adult does not admit to texting while driving. We previously determined
P(T) = 0.61
and
P(N) = 0.39.
Since three adults are chosen randomly, we have the following simple events.
TTT TTN TNT NTT TNN NTN NNT NNN
The adults were randomly selected, indicating these can be seen as independent events. Therefore, the multiplication rule can be used. Recall the multiplication rule states that for independent events, the probability that they all occur is the product of their respective probabilities. Let x be the number of adults who admit to texting while driving. Since three adults are randomly selected, then x can take on the values 0, 1, 2, or 3.
When x = 0, then no adult in the group of three admits to texting while driving. This corresponds to the simple event NNN whose probability is calculated as below.
P(x = 0) = P(NNN)
= P(N)P(N)P(N)
= 0.39(0.39)(0.39)
=
When x = 1, then only one adult in the group admits to texting while driving. This corresponds to the simple events TNN, NTN, and NNT. First, calculate the probability of each simple event by multiplying the individual probabilities. Then sum the three simple events to find
P(x = 1).
Calculate
P(x = 1).
P(x = 1) = P(TNN) + P(NTN) + P(NNT)
= P(T)P(N)P(N) + P(N)P(T)P(N) + P(N)P(N)P(T)
= 0.61(0.39)(0.39) + 0.39(0.61)(0.39) + 0.39(0.39)(0.61)
=
Find the remaining probabilities
P(x = 2)
and
P(x = 3).
P(x = 2) = P(TTN) + P(TNT) + P(NTT)
= P(T)P(T)P(N) + P(T)P(N)P(T) + P(N)P(T)P(T)
= 0.61(0.61)(0.39) + 0.61(0.39)(0.61) + 0.39(0.61)(0.61)
=
P(x = 3) = P(TTT)
= P(T)P(T)P(T)
= 0.61(0.61)(0.61)
=
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
X P(X=x)
0 0.39*0.39*0.39 = 0.059319
1 3*0.61*0.39*0.39 = 0.278343

Anita can paint 25 wooden slats in 5.5 hours. If she continues to
work at the same speed without any breaks, how many slats can
she paint in 9.9 hours?
Hello!
25 wooden ..... 5.5 hours
x wooden ..... 9.9 hours
_____________________
25/x = 5.5/9.9
25 × 9.9 = x × 5.5
247.5 = x × 5.5
x × 5.5 = 247.5
x = 247.5 : 5.5
x = 45 wooden
Good luck! :)
Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
In questions such as these it is implied Anita can and does work at a constant rate. Therefore, we can set up the following proportion:
[tex]\frac{25}{5.5}=\frac{x}{9.9}[/tex], where [tex]x[/tex] represents the number of wooden slats she can paint in 9.9 hours.
Multiplying both sides by 9, we get:
[tex]x=\frac{9.9\cdot 25}{5.5},\\x=\boxed{45}[/tex]

Salary: A sales clerk receives a monthly
salary of $500 plus a commission of 6% on all
sales over $3500. What did the clerk earn the
month she sold $8000 in merchandise?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I might be wrong but it 1900 in merchandise
The clerk earned a total of $770 for the month she sold $8000 in merchandise.
To calculate the clerk's earnings for the month she sold $8000 in merchandise, we need to consider her monthly salary and commission.
The clerk's monthly salary is $500, which is a fixed amount.
For the commission, we need to calculate the sales amount that exceeds $3500. In this case, the sales amount exceeding $3500 is $8000 - $3500 = $4500.
The commission is calculated as 6% of the sales amount exceeding $3500. Therefore, the commission earned by the clerk is 6% of $4500.
Commission = 6/100 * $4500
Commission = $270
Adding the monthly salary and commission, we can calculate the clerk's total earnings for the month:
Total earnings = Monthly salary + Commission
Total earnings = $500 + $270
Total earnings = $770
Therefore, the clerk earned a total of $770 for the month she sold $8000 in merchandise.

rotation 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin
I'm going to try my best to explain 90° rotation:
So, you know that if you rotate something 180°, it's completely flipped (think about spinning around half-way).
Or if you spin something 360°, you spin around the whole way and end up in the same spot that you did when you started.
Notice how 90 is actually 1/4 of 360.
So imagine spinning instead of 180, spinning half of that. so you barely rotate. That's exactly what you're doing to this shape here. and if you do it about the origin counterclockwise, the origin is (0,0) so I drew it in Quadrant III, as you can see in my attachment.
You can see that every point has been moved by 90°, I put all of the variables there so you could visualize it better!
I hope this helped, let me know if you have any questions! :)

in a five character password the first two characters must be digits and the last three characters must be letters if no characters are allowed to repeat how many unique passwords are possible
Answer:
1,404,000 unique passwords are possible.
Step-by-step explanation:
The order in which the letters and the digits are is important(AB is a different password than BA), which means that the permutations formula is used to solve this question.
Permutations formula:
The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:
[tex]P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}[/tex]
In this question:
2 digits from a set of 10(there are 10 possible digits, 0-9).
3 characters from a set of 26. So
[tex]P_{10,2}P_{26,3} = \frac{10!}{8!} \times \frac{26!}{23!} = 10*9*26*25*24 = 1404000[/tex]
1,404,000 unique passwords are possible.
Eight less than four times a number is less than 56. What are the possible values of that number?
X> 12
x < 12
ООО
x < 16
O x> 16
Answer:
x < 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x
Four time the number = 4x
Eight less than four times the number = 4x - 8
Eight less than four times the number is less than 56,
that is , 4x - 8 < 56
4x - 8 + 8 < 56 + 8 [ adding both sides by 8 ]
4x + 0 < 64
4x < 64 [ divide both sides by 4 ]
x < 16

Allen is looking through his weekly local grocery store newspaper ads he notices that Costco is advertising a pack of 60 eggs for $9.35 Safeway is advertising a dozen eggs for $4.79 and Trader Joe's is advertising a pack of 18 eggs for $6.18 which store is offering the better deal?
Answer:
Costco
Step-by-step explanation:
We find the cost per egg for each of the three stores.
Costco:
$9.35/(60 eggs) = $0.15583/egg
Safeway:
$4.79/(12 eggs) = $0.39917/egg
Trader Joe's:
$6.18/(18 eggs) = $0.34333/egg
The best deal is Costco.
Answer:
Costco
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{60}{9.35}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]
60 × y = 1 × 9.35
60y = 9.35
60y ÷ 60 = 9.35 ÷ 60
[tex]y=\frac{187}{1200}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{12}{4.79}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]
12 × y = 1 × 4.79
12y = 4.79
12y ÷ 12 = 4.79 ÷ 12
[tex]y=\frac{479}{1200}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{18}{6.18}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]
18 × y = 1 × 6.18
18y = 6.18
18y ÷ 18 = 6.18 ÷ 18
[tex]y=\frac{103}{300}=\frac{412}{1200}[/tex]
