John runs a computer software store. Yesterday he counted 125 people who walked by the store, 58 of whom came into the store. Of the 58, only 21 bought something in the store. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
(a) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.
(b) Estimate the probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.
(c) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.
(d) Estimate the probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.46 = 46% probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

b) 0.36 = 36% probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

c) 0.17 = 17% probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

d) 0.64 = 64% probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

(a) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

58 out of 125. So

[tex]p = \frac{58}{125} = 0.46[/tex]

0.46 = 46% probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

(b) Estimate the probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

58 walked, 21 bought. So

[tex]p = \frac{21}{58} = 0.36[/tex]

0.36 = 36% probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

(c) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

21 came in and bought out of 125 that walked by. So

[tex]p = \frac{21}{125} = 0.17[/tex]

0.17 = 17% probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

(d) Estimate the probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

0.36 probability that a person buys something, so 1 - 0.36 = 0.64 = 64% probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

what are the zeroes of f(x)=(x-7)(x+8)

Answers

Answer:

The zeroes of f(x) = (x-7)(x+8) are 7 and -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to figure out what makes each of the equal to zero.

Step 1 : Make the 2 equations both equal 0.

x-7 = 0

x+8 = 0

Step 2: Solve for x

x-7 = 0

x=7

x+8 = 0

x=-8

So 7 and -8 are both zeroes of this function.

Mrs. Rodger got a weekly raise of $145. If she gets paid every other week, write an integer describing how the raise will affect her paycheck.

Answers

Answer:

her salary will increase by $ 145 for every week

Step-by-step explanation:

x=1st paycheck (integer).

weekly raise = $ 145.

After completing the 1st week she will get $ (x+145).

Similarly after completing the 2nd week she will get

$ (x + 145) + $ 145.

= $ (x + 145 + 145)

= $ (x + 290)

So in this way end of every week her salary will increase by $ 145.

rewrite 1/6 and 2/11 so they have a common denominator then use <, =, or > to order

Answers

Answer:

1/6 < 2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 = 2/12

2/11 >2/12

So that means 1/6 < 2/11

Answer:  1/6 < 2/11

This is the same as saying 11/66 < 12/66

===========================================================

Explanation:

1/6 is the same as 11/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 11.

2/11 is the same as 12/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 6.

The 6 and 11 multipliers are from the original denominators (just swapped).

We can see that 11/66 is smaller than 12/66, simply because 11 < 12, so that means 1/6 is smaller than 2/11

-----------------

Here's one way you could list out the steps

11 < 12

11/66 < 12/66

1/6 < 2/11

------------------

Here's another way to list out the steps. First assume that 1/6 and 2/11 are equal. Cross multiplication then leads to

1/6 = 2/11

1*11 = 6*2

11 = 12

Which is false. But we can fix this by replacing every equal sign with a less than sign

1/6 < 2/11

1*11 < 6*2

11 < 12

---------------------

Yet another way to see which is smaller is to use your calculator or long division to find the decimal form of each value

1/6 = 0.1667 approximately

2/11 = 0.1818 approximately

We see that 0.1667 is smaller than 0.1818, which must mean 1/6 is smaller than 2/11.

if cars A and B are traveling at the speed of 55km/hr and 75km/hr respectively. What is their average speed?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of numbers can be calculated by adding them up and dividing that by how many numbers there are.

Here, we have two numbers. Therefore, we first add them (55+75 = 130) and then divide by 2 because there are 2 numbers, so 130/2 = 65

a= 1

b= 6

c = -13

x= -6 +/- square root( 6^2 - 4(1)(13)) / 2(1)

Answers

Answer:

1 0.5

2 0.0833

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The speedometers are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this question:

7 + 2 = 9 speedometers, which means that [tex]N = 9[/tex]

2 are not correctly calibrated, which means that [tex]k = 2[/tex]

3 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

Complete the probability distribution table.

Probability of each outcome.

So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,0}*C_{7,3}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.4167[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,1}*C_{7,2}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{7,1}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.0833[/tex]

Only 2 defective, so [tex]P(X = 3) = 0[/tex]

Answers

First account: $6500
Second account: $8500

Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500

The weights of a certain type of captured fish can be described by a bell-shaped distribution (symmetric and unimodal) with a mean of 1050 grams and a standard deviation of 375 grams. What is the probability of fish that have weights above 675g

Answers

Answer:

0.913716

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a normal distribution :

Mean, x = 1050

Standard deviation, σ = 375

The Zscore = (x - mean) / σ

Zscore = (675 - 1050) / 275

Zscore = - 1.364

The probability :

P(Z > - 1.364)

P(Z > - 1.364) = 1 - P(Z < - 1.364) = 1 - 0.086284

P(Z > - 1.364) = 0.913716

Answer:

0.5 liters of milk are available per child.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of milk available per children:

The amount of milk, in liters, available for x children is given by:

[tex]m(x) = \frac{25}{x}[/tex]

50 children are present on a day

This means that [tex]x = 50[/tex]

How much milk is available per child?

This is m(50). So
