Answer:
a) 0.3462 = 34.62% that a randomly selected employee is a woman given that the person brings their lunch to work.
b) 0.09 = 9% probability that a randomly selected employee brings their lunch to work given that person is a woman.
c) 0.3462 = 34.62% that a randomly selected employee is a woman given that the person brings their lunch to work.
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.
Questions a/c:
Questions a and c are the same, so:
Event A: Brings lunch to work.
Event B: Is a woman.
Probability of a person bringing lunch to work:
9% of 15%(woman)
3% of 100 - 15 = 85%(man). So
[tex]P(A) = 0.09*0.15 + 0.03*0.85 = 0.039[/tex]
Probability of a person bringing lunch to work and being a woman:
9% of 15%, so:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.09*0.15[/tex]
Desired probability:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.09*0.15}{0.039} = 0.3462[/tex]
0.3462 = 34.62% that a randomly selected employee is a woman given that the person brings their lunch to work.
Question b:
Event A: Woman
Event B: Brings lunch
15% of the employees are women.
This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.15[/tex]
Probability of a person bringing lunch to work and being a woman:
9% of 15%, so:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.09*0.15[/tex]
Desired probability:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.09*0.15}{0.15} = 0.09[/tex]
0.09 = 9% probability that a randomly selected employee brings their lunch to work given that person is a woman.

Form a union for the following sets.
M = {1, 2, 4, 8)
N = (2,5,8)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are asked to find the union of sets you find numbers that are present in both sets.
So a number that appears in both the sets of M and N are 2 and 8.
So M U N = { 2,8} where U is the symbol for union.
Your car can go 2/7 of the way on 3/8 of a tank of gas how far can you go on the remaining gas?
A proportion that can be used is a/b=c/d
Answer:
10/21 of the distance
Step-by-step explanation:
2/7 distance
------------------
3/8 tank
The rest of the tank is 8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8
2/7 distance x
------------------ = ----------------------
3/8 tank 5/8 tank
Using cross products
2/7 * 5/8 = 3/8x
10/56 = 3/8x
Multiply each side by 8/3
10/56 * 8/3 = 3/8x * 8/3
10/3 * 8/56=x
10/3 * 1/7 =x
10/21 =x
10/21 of the distance

11
2- V10
2- 10
3- V11
3- V11
We should multiply the expression by √11/ √11 fraction.
What is the fundamental principle of multiplication?Multiplication is the mathematical operation that is used to determine the product of two or more numbers.
To rationalize this, we multiply both the denominator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.
The denominator is 2-√10 and its conjugate is; (2+√10).
(2√10)/(3√11) = (2√10)/(3√11)
= ((2√10)√11/(3√11) √11
= (2√110)/33
This is the rationalized expression.

what is the length of GN, given that figure LMNO is a square PLZ HELP!!!!!
Answer:
A. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals are also congruent to each other. Diagonals of a square bisect each other. This implies that:
MO bisects LN, thereby dividing LN into two equal segments, LG and GN.
Thus, LG = GN.
Since the length of LG = 4, therefore:
GN = 4

Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. Find the margin of error E that corresponds to thegiven statistics and confidence level. Round the margin of error to four decimal places.1)99% confidence; n
Answer:
[tex]E = 0.0158[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 5900[/tex]
[tex]x = 1770[/tex]
[tex]CI = 99\%[/tex]
Required
The margin of error (E)
First, calculate proportion p
[tex]p = x/n[/tex]
[tex]p = 1770/5900[/tex]
[tex]p = 0.3[/tex]
Given that:
[tex]CI = 99\%[/tex]
Calculate the alpha leve;
[tex]\alpha = 1 - CI[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 1- 0.99[/tex]
[tex]\alpha= 0.01[/tex]
Divide by 2
[tex]\alpha/2= 0.01/2[/tex]
Subtract from 1
[tex]1 - \alpha/2= 1 - 0.01/2[/tex]
[tex]1 - \alpha/2= 0.995[/tex]
The corresponding z value is:
[tex]z =2.576[/tex]
So, the margin of error is:
[tex]E = z * \sqrt{p * (1 - p)/n}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]E = 2.576 * \sqrt{0.3 * (1 - 0.3)/5600}[/tex]
Using a calculator, we have:
[tex]E = 0.01577471394[/tex]
Approximate
[tex]E = 0.0158[/tex]

Given: Measure of arc AB = measure of arc BC,
Measure of angle x = 60°, measure of angle y = 15°
Find: Measure of arc AC
9514 1404 393
Answer:
100°
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant relation for angle x is ...
x = (AB +DE)/2
and for angle y, it is ...
y =(AC -DE)/2
Using the second relation to write an expression for DE, we have ...
DE = AC -2y
In the first equation, this lets us write ...
x = (AB +(AC -2y))/2 = (AB +(2AB -2y))/2
2x = 3AB-2y . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
(2x +2y)/3 = AB = AC/2 . . . . . add 2y; divide by 3
AC = (4/3)(x +y) = (4/3)(60° +15°) . . . . multiply by 2, substitute known values
AC = 100°

If x+7 is an even number, is x+11 an even number or odd number?
Answer:
x + 11 is an even number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Even numbers can only be obtained from the sum of two odd numbers or two even numbers. Since we know that x + 7 is even, x + 11 must be even as well.

The time I spend waiting for the bus on any given day has a distribution with mean 4 min- utes and variance off 0.5 minutes. What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)? You may assume that waiting times on different days are independent of each other. HINT: Is there a sum of random variables somewhere in here?
Answer:
0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
n instances of a normal variable:
For n instances of a normal variable, the mean is:
[tex]M = n\mu[/tex]
[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]
Mean of 4 minutes, standard deviation of 0.5 minutes:
This means that [tex]\mu = 4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5}[/tex]
30 days:
[tex]M = 30(4) = 120[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{0.5}\sqrt{30} = \sqrt{0.5*30} = \sqrt{15}[/tex]
What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)?
2 hours and 10 minutes is 2*60 + 10 = 130 minutes, so this probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 130. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
In this context, due to the 30 instances of the normal variable:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - M}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{130 - 120}{\sqrt{15}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9951.
1 - 0.9951 = 0.0049
0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.
The survey included a random sample of 640 western residents and 540 northeastern residents. 39% of the western residents and 51% of the northeastern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0456, 0.1944).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Western residents:
39% out of 640, so:
[tex]p_1 = 0.39[/tex]
[tex]s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{640}} = 0.0193[/tex]
Eastern residents:
51% out of 540, so:
[tex]p_2 = 0.51[/tex]
[tex]s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.51*0.49}{540}} = 0.0215[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]p = p_2 - p_1 = 0.51 - 0.39 = 0.12[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_2^2+s_1^2} = \sqrt{0.0215^2+0.0193^2} = 0.0289[/tex]
Confidence interval:
[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]p - zs = 0.12 - 2.575*0.0289 = 0.0456[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]p + zs = 0.12 + 2.575*0.0289 = 0.1944[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0456, 0.1944).

metal is made using copper, zinc and lead in thr ratio 13:6:1 . if the mass of the zinc is 90kg, calculate the mass of the lead
============================================
Explanation:
Let x be the mass of the lead, and this mass is in kg.
The ratio 13:6:1 can be scaled up to 13x:6x:1x after multiplying all parts by x.
The portion in the middle (6x) represents how much zinc we have, while the last part (1x or simply x) is the amount of lead.
----------------
We're told that we have 90 kg of zinc. Set this equal to 6x and solve for x
6x = 90
6x/6 = 90/6 ..... dividing both sides by 6
x = 15
So we have 15 kg of lead
Side note: we also have 13x = 13*15 = 195 kg of copper.
