Candidate A makes 48 speeches. Candidate B makes 16 speeches. a. Write the ratio of speeches by candidate A to candidate B b. Simplify the ratio so the second quantity is 1. Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 48:16

b. 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a asks for a ratio of the two speeches. You simply separate the two numbers with a colon to show that it's a ratio.

Part b asks that the second quantity (which is the speeches made by B) be 1. To do this, divide 16 on both sides. 48 divided by 16 is 3, and 16 divided by 16 is 1. Thus, 3:1

A company must decide which of two delivery services they will contract with. During a
recent trial period they shipped numerous packages with each service, keeping track of how
often the deliveries did not arrive on time. Here are the data:
Delivery Service Type of Service Number of Deliveries Number of Late Packages
Pack Rats Regular 400 12
overnight 100 16
Boxes R Us Regular 100 2
Overnight 400 28
a) Compare the two service's overall (total) percentage of late deliveries. [5.6% for Pack
Rats; 6% for Boxes R Us]
b) Based on the results in part (a), the company has decided to hire Pack Rats. Do you
agree that they deliver on time more often? Why or why not? Be specific.

Answers

a) To compare the overall percentage of late deliveries for each delivery service, we need to calculate the total number of late packages and total number of deliveries for each service, and then divide the number of late packages by the total number of deliveries, and multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

For Pack Rats, the total number of deliveries is 400 + 100 = 500, and the total number of late packages is 12 + 16 = 28. Therefore, the percentage of late deliveries for Pack Rats is:

percentage of late deliveries for Pack Rats = (28/500) x 100 = 5.6%

percentage of late deliveries for Boxes R Us = (30/500) x 100 = 6%

Therefore, based on these calculations, Pack Rats has a lower overall percentage of late deliveries compared to Boxes R Us.

b) While Pack Rats has a lower overall percentage of late deliveries compared to Boxes R Us, it's important to note that this decision should not be based solely on this one comparison. It's possible that there are other factors that the company needs to consider, such as the cost of each delivery service or the quality of customer service provided by each company.

Furthermore, the sample size in this trial period may not be large enough to draw a definitive conclusion about the reliability of each service. Therefore, while Pack Rats may be a good choice based on the available data, the company should consider other factors and conduct further research before making a final decision.

a spam filer is designed by screening commonly occuring phrases in spam suppose that 60 of email is spam in 20 o the spam emails the phprase fee gift card is used

Answers

The probability that a newly arrived email which does mention "free gift card", is not spam is 0.0165.

Let S be the event that an email is spam, and let F be the event that an email mentions "free gift card". We want to find P(S' | F), the probability that the email is not spam given that it mentions "free gift card".

We can use Bayes' theorem to find P(S' | F):

P(S' | F) = P(F | S') P(S') / P(F)

We can calculate each of these probabilities as follows:

P(F | S') = the probability that a non-spam email mentions "free gift card". From the problem, we know that this probability is 0.005 (i.e., 99.5% of non-spam emails do not mention "free gift card").

P(S') = the probability that an email is not spam. From the problem, we know that this probability is 0.4 (i.e., 60% of emails are spam, so 40% are not spam).

P(F) = the probability that an email mentions "free gift card". This can be calculated using the law of total probability:

P(F) = P(F | S) P(S) + P(F | S') P(S')

= 0.20 × 0.60 + 0.005 × 0.40

= 0.121

In the first term, we use the given probability that 20% of spam emails mention "free gift card". In the second term, we use the probability that 0.5% of non-spam emails mention "free gift card".

Plugging these values into Bayes' theorem, we get:

P(S' | F) = 0.005 × 0.4 / 0.121 ≈ 0.0165

Therefore, the probability that a newly arrived email which does mention "free gift card" is not spam is approximately 0.0165 or 1.65%.

Correct Question :

A spam filer is designed by screening commonly occurring phrases in spam. Suppose that 60% of email is spam. In 20% of the spam emails, the phrase “free gift card” is used. In non-spam emails, 99.5% of them do not mention “free gift card”. What is the probability that a newly arrived email which does mention “free gift card”, is not spam?

set up, but do not evaluate, an integral for the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified line. y = x , y = 0, x = 4; about x = 8

Answers

The integral for the volume of the solid is obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified axis is  V = 2[tex]\int\limits^ π/3_[/tex][tex]_{0}[/tex] [tex]{x} tan(x) - x^{2} dx[/tex]

When we rotate a thin vertical strip, about the y-axis.

We get a cylindrical shell  with an inner of radius an x and an outer of radius x + dx

The height of the cylinder shell is tan (x) - x

The volume of the cylindrical shell is

     dV = π [tex](Outer Radius)^{2} (Height)[/tex] - π[tex](Inner Radius)^{2} (Height)[/tex]

     dV = π [tex](x + dx )^{2} (tan(x) - x)[/tex] - π [tex](x )^{2} (tan(x) - x)[/tex]

dV = π[tex](x^{2} + 2 xdx + (dx)^{2} ) (tan(x) - x)[/tex] - π [tex](x)^{2} (tan(x) - x)[/tex]

assume [tex]dx^{2}[/tex]≈ 0

            dV = π[tex](x^{2} + 2xdx + 0 - x^{2} ) (tan(x) - x)\\[/tex]

compute 90 and 95% cis for the parameter associated with age. using just these intervals what could we have deduced about the p-value for age in the regression summary?

Answers

We cannot deduce anything about the p-value for age in the regression summary from just the 90% and 95%. cis for the parameter associated with age.

The 90% and 95% cis for the parameter associated with age tell us the range of values that the parameter could take, given the data. This range does not tell us anything about how likely the parameter is to take any of these values.

To determine how likely it is to take any of these values, we need to look at the p-value for age in the regression summary. The p-value tells us the probability that the parameter associated with age is different from zero.

It is the level of significance and is used to determine if the parameter is statistically significant. It is the only way to determine the likelihood of the parameter taking any of the values in its 90% and 95% cis.

Therefore, we cannot deduce anything about the p-value for age in the regression summary from just the 90% and 95% cis for the parameter associated with age.

Answers

Out of the following the statement  has a reference angle of 30° and is in quadrant one or two-  is true of the location of the terminal side of an angle 0 whose sine value is 1/2.

Since the reason behind this is that the sine value of 1/2  can be written as sin(30°), this means that the terminal side of the angle is located at 30°, which is either quadrant one or two. Quadrant one is the upper right quadrant of the coordinate plane, and quadrant two is the upper left quadrant.

The reference angle of an angle is the angle between the terminal side of the angle and the positive x-axis. In this case, the reference angle would be  30°. The reference angle of an angle is important because it is used to determine the quadrant in which the terminal side of the angle is used to determine the quadrant in which the terminal side of the angle is located. The reference angle must be less than 90° in order for the terminal side to be located in the first and second quadrants.

Answer:

$1,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price be $x

Computer has been marked down by 45%

45% = 45/100 = 0.45

Subject uses drugs 44 6 = 50

Subject does not use drugs 90 860 = 950

Similarly , 90 + 44 = 134 , 860 + 6 = 886 and 950 + 50 = 1000.

a) We have to determine the probability of selecting a subject with a positive test result that the subject does not use drug. Let A be the event that the subject with a positive test result and B be the event that subject does not use drug. We have to determine P(A/B). From conditional probability, P(A/B) = P(A and B)/P(B)

(Use k > 0 for the constant of proportionality and x for x(t).)

Answers

Answer: If the rate at which the flu spreads is proportional to the number of interactions between students who have the flu and students who have not been exposed to it, we can write:

dx/dt = kx(1000 - x)

where x is the number of students who have contracted the flu, k is the constant of proportionality, and t is time. The term x(1000 - x) represents the number of interactions between the students who have the flu and the students who have not been exposed to it. The factor of 1000 - x represents the number of students who have not yet been exposed to the flu.

Thus, the differential equation models the spread of the flu on the isolated college campus as the number of people who have contracted the flu changes over time due to the number of interactions between the students who have the flu and the students who have not been exposed to it.

Step-by-step explanation:

If James gave each cousin 3 cupcakes, there would be 25 left. James is 71 cupcakes short of being able to give each cousin 15 cupcakes. You want to know the number of cousins and the number of cupcakes.

Setup

The given relations between the number of cupcakes (n) and the number of cousins (c) are ...

  n -3c = 25 . . . . . 3 each ⇒ 25 left

  n -15c = -71 . . . . . 15 each ⇒ 71 short

Solution

Subtracting the second equation from the first, we have ...

  (n -3c) -(n -15c) = (25) -(-71)

  12c = 96

  c = 8 . . . . . . divide by 12

  n = 3c +25 = 24 +25 = 49

derive the moment generating function of a random variable following a negative binomial distribution. recall that a negative binomial random variable is a sum of independent geometric random variables

Answers

The moment generating function of a negative binomial distribution with parameters r and p is[tex]M_X(t) = [(1-p)/(1-pe^t)]^r.[/tex]

In probability theory, the negative binomial distribution is a discrete probability distribution that describes the number of successes in a sequence of independent and identically distributed Bernoulli trials before a specified (non-random) number of failures (denoted r) occurs.

The moment generating function (MGF) of a random variable X is defined as

[tex]M_X(t) = E(e^{tX})[/tex]

To derive the MGF of a negative binomial distribution, we can use the fact that a negative binomial random variable can be expressed as a sum of independent geometric random variables.

Let X ~ NB(r, p) be a negative binomial random variable, where r is the number of failures and p is the probability of success in each trial. Let Y ~ Geo(p) be a geometric random variable representing the number of failures before the first success.

We know that the MGF of a geometric distribution is

[tex]M_Y(t) = E(e^{tY}) = (1-p)/(1-pe^t).[/tex]

Using the fact that a negative binomial random variable is a sum of r independent geometric random variables, we can derive the MGF of X as follows:

[tex]M_X(t) = E(e^{tX}) = E(e^{tY_1 + tY_2 + ... + tY_r})\\\\= E(e^{tY_1} * e^{tY_2} * ... * e^{tY_r})[/tex]

(since the Y's are independent)

[tex]= E(e^{tY_1} * e^{tY_2} * ... * e^{tY_r})[/tex]

(since the Y's have the same distribution)

[tex]= [M_Y(t)]^r\\\\= [(1-p)/(1-pe^t)]^r[/tex]

Therefore, the moment generating function of a negative binomial distribution with parameters r and p is[tex]M_X(t) = [(1-p)/(1-pe^t)]^r.[/tex] This function can be used to derive moments and other statistical properties of the negative binomial distribution.

f the mean is greater than the median in a distribution which of following statements are true? (choose one or more) group of answer choices a. the distribution is positively skewed b. the distribution is negatively skewed c. the right tail is longer than the left d. the left tail is longer than the right

Answers

When the mean is higher than the median, the distribution has a right-skewed pattern. Thus the statement 'a. the distribution is positively skewed' is the accurate one.

This indicates that the majority of the data are centered on the left and that the right is covered by a lengthy tail. The mean exceeds the median. In a positively skewed distribution, the mean overestimates the values that are most prevalent. The median is larger than the mean. In a distribution that is positively skewed, the mean—the average of all the values—is higher than the median since the data tends to be lower. The center value of the data is called the median, in comparison. As a result, if the data is more skewed towards the negative, the average will be higher than the middle number.

y-intercept of the line that represents each linear
relationship.
4. The equation K = °C + 273.15 can be used to
convert Celsius to Kelvin.

Answers

By rewriting the equation in slope-intercept form and setting Celsius to 0, we can find the y-intercept of the corresponding line, which represents the temperature in Kelvin when Celsius is 0°C.

When studying linear relationships between two variables, it is often useful to identify the y-intercept of the line that represents such relationship.

The equation K = °C + 273.15 expresses the relationship between the temperature in Celsius (°C) and the temperature in Kelvin (K). It tells us that to convert a temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, we need to add 273.15 to the original value.

We can plot the Celsius and Kelvin values as two variables on a graph, with Celsius on the x-axis and Kelvin on the y-axis. Since the equation K = °C + 273.15 is a linear equation (meaning that the graph is a straight line), we can use the slope-intercept form of the equation to find the y-intercept, which is the point where the line intersects the y-axis.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. In the case of K = °C + 273.15, we can rewrite it as K = 1°C + 273.15, which tells us that the slope of the line is 1. This means that for every 1°C increase in temperature, there is a corresponding 1 K increase in temperature.

To find the y-intercept, we can simply set the value of Celsius to 0, since this is the point where the line intersects the y-axis. Plugging in 0 for °C in the equation K = °C + 273.15, we get K = 273.15. This means that the y-intercept of the line is (0, 273.15), which corresponds to the temperature in Kelvin when the temperature in Celsius is 0°C.

In summary, the equation K = °C + 273.15 provides a linear relationship between the temperature in Celsius and the temperature in Kelvin.

answer in index form.
b) The prime factor decompositions of five numbers are shown
below. Use your answer to part a) to work out which two of
these numbers are factors of 396.
88=2³×11
121=11²
9=3²
14=2×7
22=2×11

Answers

Answer:

a) Prime factorization of 396: 2² × 3¹ × 11¹

b) Factors of 396: 88 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To find the prime factorization of 396, we can start by dividing it by the smallest prime number, which is 2:

396 ÷ 2 = 198

Now we can write:

396 = 2 × 198

Next, we can divide 198 by 2 again:

198 ÷ 2 = 99

So we have:

396 = 2 × 2 × 99

Now we need to find the prime factorization of 99. We can start by dividing it by 3:

99 ÷ 3 = 33

So we can write:

396 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 33

Now we need to find the prime factorization of 33. We can start by dividing it by 3 again:

33 ÷ 3 = 11

So we have:

396 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 11 × 1

We don't need to include the factor of 1, so we can write the prime factorization of 396 in index form as:

396 = 2² × 3¹ × 11¹

b) To find which two of the given numbers are factors of 396, we need to check if all the prime factors of each number are also prime factors of 396.

The prime factorization of 88 is 2³ × 11. Both 2 and 11 are factors of 396, so 88 is a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 121 is 11². 11 is a factor of 396, but there is no factor of 121 that matches the remaining prime factors of 396 (2² × 3¹), so 121 is not a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 9 is 3². Both 3 and 2 are factors of 396, so 9 is a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 14 is 2 × 7. 7 is not a factor of 396, so 14 is not a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 22 is 2 × 11. Both 2 and 11 are factors of 396, so 22 is a factor of 396.

Therefore, the two numbers that are factors of 396 are 88 and 9.
