A food-protection agency counts the number of insect heads found per 100-gram batch of wheat flour. The researchers have 500 batches, and they want to know whether the frequency of insect heads in batches follows a distribution called a Poisson distribution. To generate the expected frequencies of batches with different numbers of insect heads under a Poisson distribution, they had to estimate the mean number of insect heads per batch from the data. The 500 batches included at least 5 batches having 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 insect heads. No batches had more than four heads. Given this information, there are_____classes (k).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is k = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chi-square goodness of fit test would be used to determine whether the frequency of insect heads in batches follows a distribution called a Poisson distribution.

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: The frequency of insect heads in batches does not follows a Poisson distribution.

Hₐ: The frequency of insect heads in batches follows a Poisson distribution.

Assume that the significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

The Chi-square test statistic is given by:

[tex]\chi^{2}=\sum\limits^{k}_{i=1}\frac{(O_{i}-E_{i})^{2}}{E_{i}}[/tex]

It is provided that the 500 batches included at least 5 batches having 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 insect heads. No batches had more than four heads.

So, the number of classes or categories are, k = 5.

Thus, the correct answer is k = 5.

two angles are complementary.the measure of the larger angle is two times the measure of the smaller angle .What is the measure of each angle ?

Answers

We know that :

The sum of two angles that are complementary = 90°

Smaller angle = x

Larger angle = 2x

We can make the formula as

= 2x + x = 90°

= 3x = 90°

= x = 90 ÷ 3

= x = 30

The smaller angle = x = 30°

The larger angle = 2x = 30 × 2 = 60°

Therefore , the measure of each of the angles are 30° and 60° .

In southern California, a growing number of individuals pursuing teaching credentials are choosing paid internships over traditional student teaching programs. A group of eight candidates for three local teaching positions consisted of five who had enrolled in paid internships and three who enrolled in traditional student teaching programs. All eight candidates appear to be equally qualified, so three are randomly selected to fill the open positions. Let Y be the number of internship trained candidates who are hired.
a. Does Y have a binomial or hypergeometric distribution? Why?
b. Find the probability that two or more internship trained candidated are hired.
c. Find the standard deviation and mean of Y.

Answers

Answer:

A) Hypergeometric

B) P( X ≥ 2) = 0.7143

C) Standard deviation: σ = 0.7087

Mean = 1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Y has Hypergeometric distribution. This is because, the population is not definite and is largely a finite number of people that have one of the two characteristics. Also, a sample of 8 was selected from this population and a random variable of interest that contained the number of people with one of the characteristics.

B) We are told total candidates were 8.

Thus; N = 8

3 were for local teaching positions, thus; n = 3

5 were for paid internship, thus; r = 5

Now, the formula for Hypergeometric distribution is;

P(y) = {(rCy) × [(N-r)C(n-y)]}/(NCn)

Where C represents combination.

Thus, probability that two or more candidates were hired is;

P( X ≥ 2) = P(2) + P(3)

Now, N - r = 8 - 5 = 3

For P(2); n - y = 3 - 2 = 1

For P(3); n - y = 3 - 3 = 0

Thus;

P(2) = {(5C2) × (3C1}/(8C3)

P(2) = 30/56

P(2) = 0.5357

P(3) = {(5C3) × (3C0}/(8C3)

P(3) = 10/56

P(3) = 0.1786

Thus;

P( X ≥ 2) = 0.5357 + 0.1786

P( X ≥ 2) = 0.7143

C) Formula for standard deviation in Hypergeometric distribution is;

σ = √[(nr/N) × ((N - r)/n) × ((N - n)/(N - 1))]

nr/N = (3 × 5/8) = 15/8

((N - r)/N) = (8 - 5)/8 = 3/8

((N - n)/(N - 1)) = (8 - 3)/(8 - 1) = 5/7

σ = √((15/8) × (3/8) × (5/7))

σ =√0.5022

σ = 0.7087

Formula for mean in Hypergeometric distribution is;

E(Y) = nr/N = 3 × 5/8 = 1.875

When Jeremy made 8 black and white copies and 2 color copies at a copy shop, the cost was $1.20. When he made 10 black and white copies and 10 color copies, the cost was $3.00. How much do black and white copies cost? ​

Answers

Answer:

10¢

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to be able to differentiate between the B&W and Color copies, use x in place of the B&W copies and y in place of the Color copies.

Then, write a system of equations to solve (the system of equations input was not working, so there is no brace):

 8x + 2y = $1.20

 10x + 10y = $3.00

Then, solve the system of equations:

   8x +  2y = $1.20

 10x + 10y = $3.00

Isolate x to be able to substitute:

8x + 2y = $1.20

8x = -2y + 1.2

x = -2/8y + 1.2/8

x = -0.25y + 0.15

Substitute:

10x + 10y = $3.00

10 (-0.25y + 0.15) + 10y = 3

-2.5y + 1.5 + 10y = 3

7.5y + 1.5 = 3

7.5y = 1.5

y = $0.20

Now that you have the cost of the Colored copies, you can plug it in to find the B&W copies:

8x + 2y = $1.20

8x + 2(0.2) = 1.2

8x + 0.4 = 1.2

8x = 0.8

x = $0.10

g Statesville population in 2010 was about 24,700, and was growing by about 1% each year. If this continues, what will Statesville population be in 2018? [Round to the nearest person.]

Answers

Answer:

26,676population

Step-by-step explanation:

Population in 2010 = 24,700

If it grows yearly by 1%, increment per year is expressed as:

1% of 24,700

= 1/100×24700

= 247 populations

After 8years, population increase will be 247×8 = 1976 population

Statesville population in 2018 will be expressed as;

Population in 2010+increase after 8years

= 24700+1976

= 26,676 population

Hence statesville population in 2018 will be 26,676population

A vaccine is 95 percent effective. What is the probability that it is not effective for more than 1 out of 20 individuals?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the vaccine is not effective in more than 1 of the 20 individuals is equal to:

P = 1 - P(1) - P(0)

Where:

P(1) = probability that the vaccine is not effective in one individual

P(0) = probability that the vaccine is not effective in 0 individuals.

The probability that the vaccine is effective is 0.95

Then the probability that the vaccine is not effective is 0.05.

Then to calculate P(1), suppose that the vaccine is not effective in the first case and then is effective 19 times, this is:

p(1) = (0.05^1)*(0.95^19)

But this only for one case, we have 20 possible permutations (the vaccine is not effective in the first case, the second case, third case, etc)

Then the actual probability is:

P(1) = 20*((0.05^1)*(0.95^19)) = 0.377

And P(0) is easy to compute:

P(0) = (0.05^0)*(0.95^20) = 0.358

And here we have only one possible permutation, so we do not worry about that.

Then P = 1 - P(1) - P(0) = 1 - 0.377 - 0.358 = 0.265

This means that the probability that the vaccine is not effective in more than one individual is of 0.265 (or 26.5% in percentage form)
