false, an independent event is an event that isn't affected

The statement given is false

Two events are dependent, when the outcome of the first event influences the outcome of the second event.

Given that, Picking the first second and third place winners at a track meet is an independent even,

This statement is not correct.

The event is a dependant variable, the 1st person is picked based on the 1st mark on the track, so is the second and the 3rd. their position influence the outcome of the other.

the position of the 1st, 2nd or 3rd is influenced by time and speed, so the positions will be picked based on the participant scores /effect of time or speed of the 1st person to reach the track meet.

Answer: B. 1.414

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the random variable denotes the number of die.

Numbers on 5-faced die = 1,2,3,4,5

Probability of getting any number = [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

Mean = [tex]\bar {x}=\sum p_ix_i[/tex]

[tex]\\\\\Rightarrow\bar{x}=\dfrac{1}{5}(1)+\dfrac{1}{5}(2)+\dfrac{1}{5}(3)+\dfrac{1}{5}(4)+\dfrac{1}{5}(5)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}(1+2+3+4+5)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}(15)=3[/tex]

Standard deviation: [tex]\sigma=\sum \sqrt{\dfrac{(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{N}}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\dfrac{(1-3)^2+(2-3)^2+(3-3)^2+(4-3)^2+(5-3)^2}{5}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{4+1+0+1+4}{5}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{10}{5}}\\\\=\sqrt{2}\approx1.414[/tex]

Hence, the standard deviation of the random variable x is 1.414.

Thus, the correct option is B.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{D = 6.4 units}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

She stops by (0,0)

She further needs to travel to (5,-4)

Let's calculate the distance using the Distance Formula:

Distance Formula = [tex]\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}[/tex]

D = [tex]\sqrt{(5-0)^2+(-4-0)^2}[/tex]

D = [tex]\sqrt{(5)^2+(-4)^2}[/tex]

D = [tex]\sqrt{25+16}[/tex]

D = [tex]\sqrt{41}[/tex]

D = 6.4 units

She needs to travel 6.4 units more.

Answer:

2sqrt41

Step-by-step explanation:

Origin=(0,0)

Brenda wants to go from (-4,5) to (0,0) and then to (5,-4). So we need to calculate the distance from (-4,5) to (0,0), and the distance of (0,0) to (5,-4).

The distance formula is sqrt (x2-xs1)^2+(y2-y1`)^2.

So: sqrt (5-0)^2+(-4-0)^2

sqrt (5^2+-4^2)

sqrt 25+16

sqrt 41

Now we need to figure out the distance from (0,0) to (5,-4)

sqrt(0-5)^2+(0-(-4))^2

sqrt(-5^2+4^2)

sqrt 25+16

sqrt 41

sqrt 41+sqrt 41

2sqrt41

Answer:

The researcher cannot conclude that salary and gender are dependent.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dependent variable is a variable, for example "Salary" that depends on an independent variable, e.g. "Gender."  Salary is the dependent variable while gender is the independent variable.  This means that the value of salary changes in relation to the gender and not vice versa.  Two variables become dependent if they change based on another independent variable that is operating on them.  In this research, the researcher is not trying to measure gender but the relationship between salary and gender.  To achieve her purpose, she shows that salary depends on gender and not that gender depends on salary.

Answer:

1/5 are towboats

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer, we need to find the total number of flag vessels. We can find this by adding all the categories together

30k + 10k + 10k= 50k

In total there are 50,000 flag vessels

Of those 50,000, 10,000 of them are tow boats

10,000/50,000 can be simplified to 1/5

1/5 are towboats

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to find the fraction we first need to know the total amount of Flag Vessels.

30,000 + 10,000 + 10,000 = 50,000

If there are 10,000 towboats we can make the following fraction.

10,000/50,000

Simplified

1/5

Thus,

the answer is 1/5.

Answer:

son is 12

dad is 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the son is x years old.

Then the father is 3x. Also 3x+x must be 48.

So 4x = 48 => x= 48/4 = 12

Let x be how old the son is. We know that the dad is 3 times older and their sum is 48. Creating an equation to represent this situation gives us:

[tex]x+3x=48[/tex]

[tex]4x=48[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]x=12[/tex]

The son is 12 years old, but we want to find the age of the dad. Since we know the dad is 3 times older, multiply 12 with 3

[tex]12 \times 3 = 36[/tex]

The dad is 36 years old. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:

B or 24 mm2

Step-by-step explanation:

Just did the test :)

The area of the shaded region is 24mm^2

Step 1: Find area of the larger triangle

Here base b = 5 mm

Height h = 12 mm

Area of the larger triangle = (5*12)/2 = 60/2 = 30mm^2

Step 2: Find area of the smaller triangle

Here base b = 3 mm

Height h = 4 mm

Area of the smaller triangle = (3*4)/2 = 12/2 = 6 mm^2

Step 3: Find area of the required shaded region

Area of the required shaded region = Area of larger triangle - Area of smaller triangle

= 30 mm^2 - 6 mm^2

=24 mm^2

Hence, the area of the shaded region is 24mm^2

Vertex for your equation is (-1, -8)

Answer:

a

    [tex]0.5043 < p <0.9075[/tex]

b

   [tex]n = 24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n =  34

    The  number of damaged helmets is  x  =  24

Now the proportion of damaged helmets is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n }[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]\r p = \frac{24}{34 }[/tex]

    [tex]\r p = 0.7059[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 99% the level of significance can be evaluated as

     [tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]

     [tex]\alpha = 1[/tex]%

    [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex]  from the normal distribution table, the value is  [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]

The reason we are obtaining critical values of   [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] instead of   [tex]\alpha[/tex] is because  

[tex]\alpha[/tex] represents the area under the normal curve where the confidence level interval (  [tex]1-\alpha[/tex]) did not cover which include both the left and right tail while  

[tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex]is just the area of one tail which what we required to calculate the margin of error

   The margin of error is mathematically represented as

     [tex]MOE = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\r p ( 1 - \r p)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]MOE = 2.58 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.7059 ( 1 - 0.7059)}{34} }[/tex]

     [tex]MOE =0.2016[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for p is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p-MOE < p < p + MOE[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]0.7059 - 0.2016 < p <0.7059 + 0.2016[/tex]

      [tex]0.5043 < p <0.9075[/tex]

The  sample size required for the width of a 99% Cl to beat most 0.10, irrespective of p ? is mathematically represented as  

     [tex]n \ge \frac{ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\r p (1- \r p )} }{\frac{\sigma }{2} }[/tex]

Here  [tex]\sigma = 0.10[/tex]  telling  us that the deviation from the sample proportion is  set to 0.10 irrespective of the value of  [tex]\r p[/tex]

so the  sample size for this condition is

    [tex]n \ge \frac{ 2.58 * \sqrt{ 0.7059 (1- 0.7059)} }{\frac{0.10 }{2} }[/tex]

    [tex]n \ge 23.51[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1). Equation of a line which has slope 'm' and y-intercept as 'b' is,

y = mx + b

If slope 'm' = 1 and y-intercept 'b' = -3

Equation of the line will be,

y = x - 3

x - y = 3

2). Equation of a line having slope 'm' and passing through a point (x', y') is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

If the slope 'm' = 1 and point is (-1, 2),

The the equation of the line will be,

y - 2 = 1(x + 1)

y = x + 1 + 2

y = x + 3

x - y = -3

3). Equation of a line passing through two points [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] will be,

[tex]y-y_1=\frac{(y_2-y_1)}{(x_2-x_1)}(x-x_1)[/tex]

If this line passes through (-2, 3) and (-3, 4),

[tex]y-3=\frac{(4-3)}{(-3+2)}(x+2)[/tex]

y - 3 = -1(x + 2)

y = -x - 2 + 3

y = -x + 1

x + y = 1

[tex]\approx[/tex] 17.5% per annum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Money invested = $20,000 at the age of 20 years.

Money expected to be $500,000 at the age of 40.

Time = 40 - 20 = 20 years

Interest is compounded annually.

To find:

Rate of growth = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the formula for compound interest.

[tex]A = P \times (1+\frac{R}{100})^T[/tex]

Where A is the amount after T years compounding at a rate of R% per annum. P is the principal amount.

Here, We are given:

P = $20,000

A = $500,000

T = 20 years

R = ?

Putting all the values in the formula:

[tex]500000 = 20000 \times (1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{500000}{20000} =(1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow 25 =(1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt[20]{25} =1+\frac{R}{100}\\\Rightarrow 1.175 = 1+0.01R\\\Rightarrow R \approx17.5\%[/tex]

So, the correct answer is [tex]\approx[/tex] 17.5% per annum and compounding annually.

-111 and -110

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the lesser integer, and x+1 is the next integer, then:

x + x+1 = -221

2x = -222

x = -111

x+1 = -110

The two integers are -111 and -110.

Answer:

-111,-110

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the first integer. Then n+1 will represent the next consecutive integer.

Translate into an equation.

We can restate the given information in one sentence as "The sum of the integers is −221."

As an equation this sentence is represented as:

n+n+1=−221

Solve the equation.

n+n+1=-221

2n+1=−221

2n=−222

n=−111

So, n=−111 is the first integer and n+1=−110 is the second integer.

Answer:

Generally the standard deviation of the sample mean is mathematically represented as  

               [tex]\sigma _ {\= x } = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

               [tex]\sigma _ {\= x } = \frac{ 21 }{\sqrt{60} }[/tex]

               [tex]\sigma _ {\= x } = 2.711[/tex]

Answer:

77

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, you would probably think that the side lengths are 1², 2², 3² = 1, 4 and 9 but these side lengths don't form a triangle. The Triangle Inequality states that the sum of the two shortest side lengths must be greater than the largest side length, and since 1 + 4 > 9 is a false statement, it's not a triangle. Let's try 2², 3², 4² = 4, 9, 16. 4 + 9 > 16 is also false so that doesn't work. 3², 4², 5² = 9, 16, 25 but since 9 + 16 > 25 is false (25 isn't greater than 25), that doesn't work either. 4², 5², 6² = 16, 25, 36 and since 16 + 25 > 36 is true, this is our triangle which means that the perimeter is 16 + 25 + 36 = 77.

⇒  [tex]56[/tex]

Using the principle of combination, the number of different random samples of size 3 that can be selected is 56.

Using the principle of combination :

Hence, we have ;

8C3 = [8! ÷ (8 - 3)! 3!]

8C3 = [8! ÷ 5!3!]

8C3 = (8 × 7 × 6) ÷ (3 × 2 × 1)

8C3 = 8 × 7

8C3 = 56

Hence, there are 56 different possible samples.
