14. A professor records the number of class days (x) each student misses over the course of a semester and uses a frequency distribution to display the data. What is the probability a student missed exactly 1 day
Question is incomplete, however here's an explanation to solve questions such as this
Answer and explanation:
Probability= number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes
The frequency distribution recorded by the professor would show number of times(frequency) each student missed a class day.
We are required to fund the probability that a student would miss class
Probability = number of times the student missed class/ total number of classes missed by all students
Example, if student missed class 20 times in a semester and all students in total missed class 200 times
Probability that the student would miss class=20/200= 1/10

Find the derivative of 4x^3-7x+8 ÷ x
Step-by-step explanation:
If a fraction [tex]f(x)[/tex] is defined as
[tex]f(x) = \dfrac{g(x)}{h(x)}[/tex]
then the derivative [tex]f'(x)[/tex] is given by
[tex]f'(x) = \dfrac{g'(x)h(x) - g(x)h'(x)}{h^2(x)}[/tex]
So the derivative can be calculated as follows:
[tex]f'(x) = \dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\dfrac{4x^3 - 7x + 8}{x} \right)[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{(12x^2 - 7)x - (4x^3 - 7x + 8)}{x^2}[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{12x^3 - 7x - 4x^3 + 7x - 8}{x^2}[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{8x^3 - 8}{x^2}[/tex]
(a) What is the probability that a person who was polled prefers chocolate ice cream to vanilla? Round your answer to four decimal places.
Answer:
[tex]P(k)=0.2628[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 1693[/tex] --- sample size
[tex]k = 445[/tex] --- those that prefer chocolate ice cream to vanilla
Required
[tex]P(k)[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(k)=\frac{k}{n}[/tex] --- probability formula

[tex]P(k)=0.2628[/tex]
Marty's barber shop has one barber. Customers arrive at a rate of 2.2 per hour and haircuts are given at a rate of 5 customers per hour. Assume a Poisson arrival rate and an Exponential service time distribution.
Required:
a. What is the probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and one customer is waiting?
b. What is the probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and two customers are waiting?
c. What is the probability that more than two customers are waiting?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Arrival rate = ∧ = 2.2 customers per hour
Service rate = u = 5 customers per hour
1. Probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and one customer is waiting
P(2 customers)=(∧/u)^2 * (1-∧/u)=(2.2/5)^2 * (1-2.2/5)=0.1936*0.56= 0.108416
2. Probability that one customer is receiving a haircut and two customers are waiting
P(3 customers)= (∧/u)^3 * (1-∧/u)=(2.2/5)^3 * (1-2.2/5)= 0.085184
* 0.56= 0.04770304
3. Probability that more than two customers are waiting
P(more than 3 customers)=1- P(less than 3 customers) =
1- [P(0)+P(1)+P(2)+P(3)]=
= 1- [(1-2.2/5) +2.2/5*(1- 2.2/5) + 0.108416+0.04770304]=1-0.9625=0.0375
The club will use the majority criterion method to determine the final winner. However, while finalizing the votes, a member of the club discovers that Mason did not meet the original criteria to be considered for the vacation package, because he is a county deputy, not a city police person, so Mason is eliminated from the votes. Who actually will win the tickets? Is the irrelevant alternative criterion supported in this case?
Answer and Explanation:
The irrelevant alternative criterion states that if two candidates A and B contest for an election and candidate B is preferred to candidate A then any other candidate X should not cause candidate A to win the election.
In this case if Mason was candidate A, then candidate B should still win by the majority criterion method and the irrelevant alternative criterion would still be supported. However if he is candidate B then the irrelevant alternative criterion is not supported.

what is the cost to drive from san francisco to los angeles (405 mi) if the cost of gasoline is $2.34/gal and the automobile gets 8.5 mi/L
Answer:
The cost is $ 29.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
distance = 405 miles
Cost = $ 2.34 /gal
Average = 8.5 miles per litre
So, the amount of gasoline to travel for 405miles
= 405/8.5 = 47.65 liter
1 gal = 3.785 liters
So,
47.65 liter = 47.65 / 3.785 = 12.6 gal
So, the cots is
= $ 2.34 x 12.6 = $29.5

Helpppppp ,would this just be -1.2?
Explanation:
The result of any absolute value function is never negative. It represents distance on a number line.
The distance from -1.2 to 0 on the number line is exactly 1.2 units.
So that's why |-1.2| = 1.2
In short, we erase the negative sign.

4b^2+300=0 this is a quadratic equation that I am trying to solve including any solutions with imaginary numbers I will include a picture
Answer:
b= 5i square root of 3
b = -5i square root of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4b^2+300=0
4b^2 = -300
b^2 = -75
b = square root of -75
b = -75^1/2
^1/2 means square root
b = 25^1/2 * 3^1/2 * i
b= 5i square root of 3
b = -5i square root of 3
If it takes Ohenhen 10km to pass to Emma and it takes Emma 8km to pass to Omusi and considering Ohenhen & Omusi are at perpendicular ends from Emma. What's the distance between Ohenhen and Omusi?
Answer:
12.81 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras formula for right-angled triangles.
this scenario just says that Emma is the corner point of that triangle with an angle of 90 degrees.
the distance between Ohenhen and Omusi is the baseline (Hypotenuse c) of that triangle. and the distances to Emma are the sides a and b.
so the formula is
c² = a² + b² = 10² + 8² = 100 + 64 = 164
[tex]c = \sqrt{164} [/tex]
c ≈ 12.81 km (rounded to the nearest hundredth).

*see attachment for missing diagram
Answer:
AC = 5 and BC = 5√3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
m<A = 60°
m<B = 30°
AB = 10
Required:
AC and BC
Solution:
Recall, SOH CAH TOA
✔️Find AC:
Reference angle (θ) = 30°
Hypotenuse = 10
Opposite = AC
Apply SOH:
Sin θ = Opp/Hyp
Substitute
Sin 30° = AC/10
10*Sin 30° = AC
10*½ = AC (sin 30° = ½)
5 = AC
AC = 5
✔️Find BC:
Reference angle (θ) = 60°
Hypotenuse = 10
Opposite = BC
Apply SOH:
Sin θ = Opp/Hyp
Substitute
Sin 60° = BC/10
10*Sin 60° = BC
10*√3/2 = BC (sin 60° = √3/2)
5*√3 = BC
BC = 5√3

Consider a relation on the set of all states in the United States given by: two states are related if they have a border in common. Is it an equivalence relation
Answer:
Yes it is an equivalence relation
Explanation:
An equivalence relation is a binary relation between two values that are symmetric, transitive and reflexive. In other words, when we say a value x is equal(using "=") to a value y, there is an equivalence relation between them.
Example, given set {x, y, z} where ~ means equivalence:
x ~ y if y ~ z means symmetric
since x ~ y and y ~ z, then x ~ z means transitive
x ~ x means reflexive
Equivalence relations share a common attribute or attributes(example, a satisfying condition)
The above condition that two states are related from the set of all US states if they have a border in common satisfies the condition of equivalence listed hence it is an equivalence relation.
