It is known that 60% of the students at a large university have a job and 40% do not have a job. If three of these students are randomly selected, what is the probability at least one does not have a job? (Hint: the compliment of this event is all three have jobs.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

78.4% probability at least one does not have a job

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a job, or they do not have a job. The probability of a student having a job is independent of other students. So 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.

60% of the students at a large university have a job

This means that [tex]p = 0.6[/tex]

Three of these students are randomly selected

This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

What is the probability at least one does not have a job?

Either all of them have a job, or at least one does not. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

[tex]P(X < 3) + P(X = 3) = 1[/tex]

We want P(X < 3). Then

[tex]P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3)[/tex]

In which

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

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.6)^{3}.(0.4)^{0} = 0.216[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3) = 1 - 0.216 = 0.784[/tex]

78.4% probability at least one does not have a job

Answers

Answer:

No, obtuse simply means that the angle measures are > 90 and less than 360. Just because two angles are obtuse DOES NOT mean they are congruent.

Here is a circle touching a square. The area of the square is 36cm squared. Work out the area of the circle. Give your answer in terms of (Pi)

Answers

Answer:

∠3 is 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠1 is 50° since it is across from another 50° angle

x then equals 35°

you then use the alternate interior angle theorem to say that ∠3 is 2x, or 70°

In ΔRST, the measure of ∠T=90°, ST = 44 feet, and TR = 84 feet. Find the measure of ∠R to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]27.6^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A [tex]\triangle RST[/tex] with [tex]\angle T =90 ^\circ[/tex]

ST = 44 feet

TR = 84 feet

To find:

[tex]\angle R = ?[/tex]

Solution:

Please have a look at the attached figure for clear view of the given dimensions of the right angled triangle.

Here, we can use trigonometric formula to find out the [tex]\angle R[/tex].

We know that formula for tangent of angle [tex]\theta[/tex] is given as:

[tex]tan \theta = \dfrac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Base}}[/tex]

Here, Perpendicular for [tex]\angle R[/tex] is side ST and

Base is side TR.

Putting the values in above tangent formula:

[tex]tan R = \dfrac{ST}{TR}\\\Rightarrow tan R = \dfrac{44}{84}\\\Rightarrow tan R = 0.523\\\Rightarrow \angle R = 27.6^\circ[/tex]

Hence, [tex]\angle R = 27.6^\circ[/tex] is the answer.

What effect will replacing x with (x+7) have on the graph of the equation y=x2 y = x 2 ? A. slides the graph 7 units right B. slides the graph 7 units down C. slides the graph 7 units left D. shrinks the graph by a factor of 7

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) then the graph of f(x + a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)

• If a > 0 then a shift to the left of a units

• If a < 0 then a shift to the right of a units

Thus y = (x + 7)²

represents a shift to the left of 7 units → C

The graph y = x² will slide the graph 7 units left by replacing x with (x+7) thus, the correct option is (C).

How to plot a graph?

In order to plot a graph, we have to substitute all the x's values into a function.

Find out the y's value corresponding to the x's and plot the graph in the coordinate geometry.

By the replacing x by (x + a) in the function y = f(x), the function is going to shift either left or right horizontaly.

1. If a is positive then the graph will slide left of the units.

2. If a is negative then the graph will slide right of the units.

Given that, y = x² is need to replace with y = (x+7)²

Since 7 is positive so the graph will slide 7 units left.

Answers

Answer:

A. y = 5/4(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line can be written in the form:

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

From the points given,

To find the average rate of change, we divide the change in the output value by the change in the input value. The Greek letter Δ (delta) signifies the change in a quantity; we read the ratio as “delta-y over delta-x” or “the change in y divided by the change in x”.

Answer:

Find the average rate of change of the function

A General Note: Rate of Change

The units on a rate of change are “output units per input units.” The average rate of change between two input values is the total change of the function values (output values) divided by the change in the input values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially they replace x with 14, so all you have to do is plug 14 into the equation. 14 multiplied by 1/2 is 7, because it's the same thing as 14 divided by 2. Then you minus 2 from 7, and you get 5.

Hey there! :)

Answer:

f(-2) = -148.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate f(-2), simplify substitute -2 for x in the equation. Therefore:

f(x) = 4x³ -12x² + 40x + 12

Becomes:

f(-2) = 4(-2)³ - 12(-2)² + 40(-2) + 12

Simplify:

f(-2) = 4(-8) - 12(4) - 80 + 12

f(-2) = -32 - 48 -80 + 12

Finally, you get:

f(-2) = -148.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Combination (as in permutation vs combination) question the symbol (n r) refers to "n choose r". This is sometimes written as nCr

i.e the question is asking you to find how many combinations each will yield when you chose r items from n item without repetition and order does not matter.

I will only do the first question for you and you can just follow the same steps to solve the rest of the questions.

Recall that

[tex]nCr=\frac{n!}{(r!)(n-r)!}[/tex]

Consider question a) we are given (5 1) or ₅C₁

we can see that n = 5 and r = 1

If we substitute this into the formula:

₅C₁ = (5!) / [ (1!)(5- 1)!]

= (5!) / [ (5- 1)!]

= (5!) / (4!)

= (5·4·3·2·1) / (4·3·2·1)

= 5

hence ₅C₁ = 5

A rectangle has a width that is 3cm less than its length. The perimeter of the rectangle is 22cm. What is the length and width of the rectangle? Please use problem solving algebraically and explain your answer so i can give you the brainliest. :)

Answers

Answer:

The length is 7 and the width is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = l-3

P =2( l+w)

22 = 2( l+ l-3)

Combine like terms

22 = 2(2l-3)

Divide each side by 2

22/2 = 2/2 (2l-3)

11 = 2l-3

Add 3 to each  side

11+3 = 2l-3+3

14 = 2l

Divide each side by 2

14/2 =2l/2

7 = l

Now find w

w = l-3

w = 7-3 = 4

Answer: length = 7 cm

Width = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2 (l + w)

22 = 2 ( l + l-3)

22=2 (2l - 3)

22=4l - 6

22+6 = 4l

4l = 28/4

l = 28/1 = 7 = length

Width = 7-3 = 4
