What is the probability that out of 125 babies born, at least 70 will be girls?
Assume that boys and girls are equally probable, and round your answer to
the nearest tenth of a percent.
O A. 70.4%
B. 10.5%
C. 51.2%
D. 99.0%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Well just looking at the choices can lead you to the answer right away.

Well since the probability of boys and girls are equal, its 50/50. And since 125 in half well about is about 60-62 and the minimum amount of girls has to be 70. It can’t be higher then half and the choices remain to less then half not including 50%. So that eliminates all 3 choices except B.

Answer 2

The probability that out of 125 babies born, at least 70 will be girls is 10.5%. So, option B is correct.

What is meant by probability ?

Probability is defined as the chance for an event to occur. The value of probability is expressed from zero to one.

Here,

Let X be the number of girls born among the babies.

Let the number of babies born be n = 125

Let the probability of girls being born be P

Since, boys and girls are equally probable, P = 1/2 = 0.5

The probability that at least 70 girls will be born is P(X ≤ 70)

P(X ≤ 70) = P(70) + P(71) + P(72) + P(73) + P(74) +....P(125)

Applying the binomial probability equation,

P(X) = {n!/[X!(n - X)!} Pˣ (1 -P)ⁿ⁻ˣ

So,

P(70) = {125!/[70!(125-70)!]}x 0.5⁷x (1 - 0.5)⁵⁵

We get P(70) = 0.02913

Using cumulative probability function, we get the probability upto X=125.

By adding all the values, we get,

P(70) = 0.1051

Therefore probability that at least 70 girls are born = 0.1051 x 100 = 10.5%

Hence,

The probability that out of 125 babies born, at least 70 will be girls is 10.5%.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points
Y=2x+5

Answers

Answer:

Parallel means that the lines never intersect. If the equation of the new line is y=ax+b , then the system

y=ax+b

y=2x+5

needs to have no solutions. Subtracting the equations gives us

(a−2)x+(b−5)=0

In order for this to ever be 0 we need either a≠2 or b=5 , so to stop this from happening, we will require both a=2 and b≠5 .

Since our line now has the form y=2x+b , and (4,5) is on the line, then the equation

5=2⋅4+b

should be true. Since this implies that b=−3 , we have that the parallel line going through (4,5) has equation

y=2x−3

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

A pair of dice was rolled many times and the results appear below. Based upon these results.

Outcome      2     3     4     5     6     7     8     9     10     11     12

Frequency    3    6     8     11     14   16    15    12     9      5      1

Then the experimental probability of rolling a multiple of 3 will be

Favorable events = 6 + 14 + 12 + 1 = 33

Total events = 100

Then the probability will be

P = (33 / 100) x 100

P = 0.33 x 100

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y =(1/2)x - 5 and passes through point (-6,2)

Answers

Answer: y=-2x-10

Work:
m=(1/2)
m perpendicular= -2
2=-2(-6)+b
b=-10

Explanation: the standard form of the equation of a line is y=mx+b, find the y-int and perpendicular slope.

Answer:

y=-2x-10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us start with a general slope-intercept equation, y=mx+b, where m represents the slope, b represents the y-intercept, and the y and x represents the coordinates the line passes through.

Therefore, the slope of our line

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x-5[/tex]

is 0.5

We also know that the perpendicular slope is simply the negative reciprocal of the current slope. We know have:

[tex]-\frac{2}{1} =\\-2[/tex]

Now, let us find the y intercept. We can plug in the x and y values using the given coordinate (–6,2).

[tex]y=-2x+b\\2=-2*(-6)+b\\2=12+b\\b=-10[/tex]

Now, we can write our equation:

[tex]y=-2x-10[/tex]

About 7% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 800 people are randomly selected. Find the standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 800.

Answers

Answer:

The standard deviation is of 7.22 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have the mutation, or they do not. The probability of a person having the mutation is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

About 7% of the population has a particular genetic mutation.

This means that [tex]p = 0.07[/tex]

800 people are randomly selected.

This means that [tex]n = 800[/tex]

Find the standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 800.

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{800*0.07*0.93} = 7.22[/tex]

The standard deviation is of 7.22 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = length x width x height

height = 20

The rectangular bin is 20 feet deep.

What is a cuboid?

A cuboid is a three-dimensional shape in which all sides are rectangles. A cuboid has 6 faces, 8 vertices, and 12 edges. All the angles formed at the vertices of a cuboid are right angles. The opposite edges are parallel to each other.

For the given situation,

A rectangular bin is in the shape of a cuboid.

Volume of the rectangular bin,V = 1200 cubic feet

Length of the rectangular bin,l = 10 feet

Width of the rectangular bin,w = 6 feet

Let the height of the rectangular bin be h.

The formula of volume of cuboid is

[tex]V=lwh[/tex]

Now substitute the above values,

⇒ [tex]1200=(10)(6)h[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h=\frac{1200}{60}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h=20[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the rectangular bin is 20 feet deep.

Given

[tex]x \to base\ length[/tex]

[tex]y \to height[/tex]

Required

The surface area as a function of base length

The volume (V) is calculated as:

[tex]V = Base\ Area * Height[/tex]

[tex]V = x*x*y[/tex]

[tex]V = x^2*y[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = \frac{V}{x^2}[/tex]

Substitute 3 for V

[tex]y = \frac{3}{x^2}[/tex]

The surface area of the open box is:

[tex]SA = x^2 + 2xy+2xy[/tex]

[tex]SA = x^2 + 4xy[/tex]

Substitute: [tex]y = \frac{3}{x^2}[/tex]

[tex]SA = x^2 + 4x*\frac{3}{x^2}[/tex]

[tex]SA = x^2 + 4*\frac{3}{x}[/tex]

[tex]SA = x^2 + \frac{12}{x}[/tex]

Hence, the function is:
