For the following sample of n 5 10 scores:
a. Assume that the scores are measurements of a discrete variable and find the median.
b. Assume that the scores are measurements of a continuous variable and find the median by locating the precise midpoint of the distribution.
Scores: 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

scores = 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7

Since the scores are already in ascending order; then the median which is the middle number will be:

median = (5th term + 6 term)/2

median = (5+5)/2

median = 10/2

meian = 5

b)

Use the cumulative percentage table

X     frequency    cumulative frequency     cumulative percentage

2         1                     1                                            10%

3         1                     2                                           20%

4        2                     4                                            40%

5        3                     7                                             70%

6        2                     9                                             90%

7        1                     10                                             100%

fraction = the no. required to reach 50%/ no. in that interval

= 1/3

Since we have a total of 4 boxes when we reach the value of 4.5

The median of the continuous variable = 4.5 + (1/3)

The median of the continuous variable = 4.833

The median of the continuous variable ≅ 5

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

scores = 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7

Since the scores are already in ascending order; then the median which is the middle number will be:

median = (5th term + 6 term)/2

median = (5+5)/2

median = 10/2

median = 5

Cause of Fatality Number of Fatalities Transportation incidents 1795 Assaults and violent acts 837 Contact with objects and equipment 741 Falls 645 Exposure to harmful substances or environments 404 Fires and explosions 113 Assume that a fatality will be randomly chosen from this population. Round your answers to four decimal places. a. What is the probability the fatality resulted from a fall

Answers

Answer:

0.1634 = 16.34% probability the fatality resulted from a fall

Step-by-step explanation:

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

In this question, we have that:

1795 + 837 + 741 + 645 + 404 + 113 = 4535 total fatalities.

Of those, 741 from falls.

741/4535 = 0.1634

0.1634 = 16.34% probability the fatality resulted from a fall

Suppose 88% of all batteries from a supplier have acceptable voltages. A certain type of flashlight requires two D batteries, and the flashlight will work only if both its batteries have acceptable voltages. Treat all batteries and flashlights as independent of one another. Suppose 20 randomly selected batteries are placed into 10 flashlights. What is the probability that at least 9 of the flashlights function properly

Answers

Answer:

0.3036 = 30.36% probability that at least 9 of the flashlights function properly.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each flashlight, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it works, or it does not. Flashlights are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Flashlight works correctly if both its batteries have acceptable voltages:

Each battery has an 88% = 0.88 probability of working correctly(having acceptable voltage), so the probability of the flashlight working correctly is given by:

[tex]p = (0.88)^2 = 0.7744[/tex]

10 flashlights.

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

What is the probability that at least 9 of the flashlights function properly?

This is

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}(0.7744)^{9}.(0.2256)^{1} = 0.2260[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}(0.7744)^{10}.(0.2256)^{0} = 0.0776[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.2260 + 0.0776 = 0.3036[/tex]

0.3036 = 30.36% probability that at least 9 of the flashlights function properly.

Three machines turn out all the products in a factory, with the first machine producing 30% of the products, the second machine 20%, and the third machine 50%. The first machine produces defective products 13% of the time, the second machine 9% of the time and the third machine 9% of the time. What is the probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

Answers

Answer:

0.2027 = 20.27% probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Non-defective product.

Event B: From the second machine.

Probability of a non-defective product:

100-13 = 87% of 30%(first machine)

100-9 = 91% of 20%(second machine)

100-9 = 91% of 50%(third machine).

So

[tex]P(A) = 0.87*0.3 + 0.91*0.2 + 0.91*0.5 = 0.898[/tex]

Non-defective and from the second machine:

91% of 20%. So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.91*0.2 = 0.182[/tex]

What is the probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.182}{0.898} = 0.2027[/tex]

0.2027 = 20.27% probability that a non-defective product came from the second machine

(T & G) -> (E v D) what does this mean

Answers

Answer:

The work done by the electric field in Figure 1 to move a positive charge q from A, the positive plate, higher potential, to B, the negative plate, lower potential, is

W = −ΔPE = −qΔV.

The potential difference between points A and B is

−ΔV = −(VB − VA) = VA − VB = VAB.

Entering this into the expression for work yields W = qVAB.

Work is W = Fd cos θ; here cos θ = 1, since the path is parallel to the field, and so W = Fd. Since F = qE, we see that W = qEd. Substituting this expression for work into the previous equation gives qEd = qVAB.

The charge cancels, and so the voltage between points A and B is seen to be

On an American League baseball team with 15 field players and 10 pitchers, the manager must select for the starting line-up, 8 field players, 1 pitcher and 1 designated hitter. A starting line-up specifies the players for these positions and the positions in a batting order for the 8 field players and designated hitter. If the designated hitter must be chosen among all the possible field players, how many possible starting line-ups are there.

Answers

Answer:

There are 18,162,144,000 possible starting line-ups

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the player are chosen is important, as if two player exchange places, we have a new batting order. So we use the permutations formula 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:

Batting order:

9 batters(8 field + the designated hitter) from a set of 15. So

[tex]B = P_{(15,9)} = \frac{15!}{(15-9)!} = 1816214400[/tex]

Pitcher:

1 from a set of 10. So

[tex]P = P_{(10,1)} = \frac{10!}{(10-1)!} = 10[/tex]

Total:

[tex]T = B*P = 1816214400*10 = 18162144000[/tex]

Two students, Alice and Bob, forgot to put their names on their exam papers. The professor knows that Alice does well with probability 0.8, and Bob does well with probability 0.4, independently of each other. What is the probability that exactly one of Alice and Bob does well on the exam

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Probability = 0.56[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the probability that Alice does well with P(A), the probability that Bob does well with P(B).

So, we have:

[tex]P(A) = 0.8[/tex]

[tex]P(B) = 0.4[/tex]

Required

Determine the probability that only one of them do well

This event is represented as: (A and B') or (B and A')

Where B' means Bob does not perform well and A' means Alice does not perform well.

And:

[tex]P(B') = 1 - P(B)[/tex]

[tex]P(A') = 1 - P(A)[/tex]

So, the probability becomes:

[tex]Probability = P(A\ and\ B')\ or\ P(B\ and\ A')[/tex]

[tex]Probability = P(A) * P(B')\ +\ P(B)*P(A')[/tex]

[tex]Probability = P(A) * (1-P(B)) +\ P(B)*(1-P(A))[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.8 * (1-0.4) +\ 0.4*(1-0.8)[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.8 * 0.6 +\ 0.4*0.2[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.48 + 0.08[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.56[/tex]

Hence, the required probability is 0.56

Give the equation:

A(t) = 700(1.03)^t

A.)

Average rate of change over the first 4 years ;

(t=0 to t=4)

At t = 0

A(0) = 700(1.03)^0 = 700

A(1) = 700(1.03)^1 = 721

A(2) = 700(1.03)^2 = 742.63

A(3) = 700(1.03)^3 = 764. 9089

A(4) = 700(1.03)^4 = 787.856167

[(721 - 700) + (742.63 - 721) + (764.9089 - 742.63) + (787.856167 - 764.9089)] / 4

= 87.856167 / 4

= 21.96404175

= 21.96

Over the 2nd 4 years :

A(4) = 700(1.03)^4 = 787.856167

A(8) = 700(1.03)^8 = 886.73905697133127

[(811.49185201 - 787.856167) + (835.8366075703 - 811.49185201) + (860.911705797409 - 835.8366075703) + (886.73905697133127 - 860.911705797409)] / 4
