A certain journal likes to give new writers an opportunity. Therefore, there is a 40% chance that an author’s first article submitted will be published. But, that author’s second article submitted, and each article submitted after that, have only a 20% chance of being published. Past history of being published has no influence on whether a new article will be published.
(a) What is the probability that a new author will be published for the first time when he or she
submits a 4th article?
(b) What is the probability a new author will be published for the first time within his or her first 5
articles submitted?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

[tex]P(A_4) =  0.077[/tex]  

b

[tex]P(A_5) =0.7542 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The chance that a new authors first article will be submitted is  [tex]P(A) =  0.40[/tex]

    The chance that a new authors next article will be submitted is  [tex]P(N) =  0.20[/tex]

Generally the probability that a new author first article is not published is

      [tex]P(A)' = 1 - 0.4 =  0.6[/tex]

Generally the probability that a new author next articles are not published is  

      [tex]P(N)' = 1 - 0.2 =  0.8[/tex]

Now from the question we are told to obtain the probability that a new author will be published for the first time when he or she  submits a 4th article, which implies that the new authors first three articles where not published

So the probability is mathematically represented as

   [tex]P(A_4) =  P(A)' *  P(N)' * P(N)' * P(N)[/tex]    

=> [tex]P(A_4) =  0.6 * 0.8 * 0.8* 0.2[/tex]  

=> [tex]P(A_4) =  0.077[/tex]  

Generally the probability that a new author will be published for the first time within his or her first 5  articles submitted is equivalent to

1 - [The probability that a new author will not be published for the first time

    within his or her first 5  articles submitted]

Now the  probability that a new author will not be published for the first time within his or her first 5  articles submitted. is mathematically represented as

    [tex]P(A_5)' = P(A)' * P(N)' * P(N)'*P(N)'* P(N)'[/tex]

=> [tex]P(A_5)' = 0.6 *0.8 * 0.8'*0.8* 0.8[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(A_5)' = 0.24576 [/tex]

Generally the probability that a new author will be published for the first time within his or her first 5  articles submitted is mathematically represented as

    [tex]P(A_5) = 1 - P(A_5)'[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(A_5) = 1 -0.24576 [/tex]

=>  [tex]P(A_5) =0.7542 [/tex]

What is the second number of an ordered pair called

Answers

The second number in the ordered pair is the y coordinate.

The second value of an ordered pair is the y-value.

It signifies how far above (or below) the x axis o (horizontal axis) that a point is. If the y value is positive, then the point is above the x-axis, but if it is negative it is below the x axis (when it's 0, the point is on the x-axis)

If p and q vary inversely and p is 29 when q is 16, determine q when p is equal to 116.

Answers

Answer:

q = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given p and q vary inversely then the equation relating them is

p = [tex]\frac{k}{q}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition p = 29 when q = 16 , then

29 = [tex]\frac{k}{16}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 16 )

464 = k

p = [tex]\frac{464}{q}[/tex] ← equation of variation

when p = 116 , then

116 = [tex]\frac{464}{q}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by q )

116q = 464 ( divide both sides by 116 )

q = 4

Find rise, run and slope values

Answers

From the given graph, the rise, run and slope of this graph are 1, 5, and 1/5 respectively.

Slope of a Line

This is the ratio between the rise and run i.e y-axis and x-axis.

The rise any graph is the change in the y-axis.

Rise

[tex]\delta y = y_2 - y_1[/tex]

The rise in this graph will be

[tex]\delta y = 1 - 0 = 1[/tex]

Run

The run on any graph is the change in the x-axis.

[tex]\delta x = x_2 - x_1[/tex]

The run on this graph is

[tex]\delta x = 5 - 0 = 5[/tex]

Having the values of rise and run, we can find the slope of this graph

[tex]m = \frac{\delta y}{\delta x} = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

The rise, run and slope of this graph are 1, 5, and 1/5 respectively.

The area of a sector of a circle with a central angle of 6pi/5 rad is 31 km2.

Find the radius of the circle.
r =
km

Answers

Answer:

  4.06 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the sector of a circle is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2r²θ

Filling in the given information, we have ...

  31 km² = 1/2(r²)(6π/5)

Solving for r gives ...

  r² = (31 km²)(5/(3π)) ≈ 16.446 km² . . . . divide by the coefficient of r²

  r ≈ 4.055 km . . . . . . take the square root

The radius of the circle is about 4.06 km.

Wendi is 6 years older than Zaviel. The sum of their ages is 30. Which of these systems of equations can be used to find Wendi's age (w) and Zaviel's age (z)?

Answers

For Wendy’s age you can’t do 30-6=24 and then for Zaviel’s you can do 24-6=18 so Wendy is 24 years old and Zaviel is 18 years old.
30-6=w
W-6=z
30-6=24(w)
24-6=18(z)

The system of equations for the ages of Wendi and Zaviel can be obtained as  x = y + 6 and x + y = 30 respectively.

What is a system of linear equations?

A system of linear equations is a group of  equations having same number of variables and degree.

For the n number of variables n number of equations are required.

On the basis of number of solutions a system of equations can be classified as consistent and inconsistent.

Suppose the age of Wendi and Zaviel be x and y respectively.

Then, the equation for their age can be written as,

x = y + 6

And, the equation for the sum of ages is given as,

x + y = 30

Hence, the equations that represent the given case are x = y + 6 and x + y = 30 respectively.
