g The proportion of U.S. births that result in a birth defect is approximately 1/33 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). A local hospital randomly selects five births and lets the random variable X count the number not resulting in a defect. Assume the births are independent. What is the probability that at least one of the births results in a defect

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1426 = 14.26% probability that at least one of the births results in a defect.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each birth, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it results in a defect, or it does not. The probability that a birth results in a defect is independent of any other birth. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used 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.

The proportion of U.S. births that result in a birth defect is approximately 1/33 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{33}[/tex]

A local hospital randomly selects five births.

This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

What is the probability that at least one of the births results in a defect?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(\frac{1}{33})^{0}.(\frac{32}{33})^{5} = 0.8574[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.8574 = 0.1426[/tex]

0.1426 = 14.26% probability that at least one of the births results in a defect.

Foresters want to estimate the average age of trees in a stand. Determining age is cumbersome, because one needs to count the tree rings on a core taken from the tree. In general, though, the older the tree, the larger the diameter, and diameter is easy to measure. The foresters measure the diameter of all 1132 trees and find that the population mean equals 10.3. They then randomly select 20 trees for age measurement

Answers

Answer:

hello your question has some missing information attached below is the missing information

answer : mean ratio of estimate = 117.62

              standard error ( SE ) = 3.9765

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data : n = 20,  μx = 10.3  , N = 1132

∑ age ( yi) = ( 125 + 119 + --------- + 99 ) =  2148

∑ ( Y - rX)^2 = 6116.728

mean of age ( y ) = ∑ y / 20 =  2148 / 20 = 107.4

mean of diameter ( x ) = ∑x /20 = 188.1 / 20 = 9.405

∴ ratio estimate  = y /x = 107.4 / 9.41 = 11.4195

i) The mean of ratio estimate

= 11.4195 * μx  = 11.4195 * 10.3 = 117.6204

ii) determine the standard error ( SE )

calculate ; [tex]s^{2} _{r}[/tex] = 1 / ( n-1 ) *  ∑ (Y - rX)^2  = 1/19 ( 6116.728 ) = 321.933

Var (  μr ) = [ ( N - n ) / N*n ]*[tex]s^{2} _{r}[/tex]  =  [ ( 1132 - 20 ) / (1132*20) ] * 321.933

               = 15.81226

therefore the SE = √15.81226 ≈ 3.9765

2x+2y= 24
x=3y
What is the value of x+y?

Answers

Answer:

x = 9

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 24 is the same as x + y = 12

using substitution, x = 12-y

12 - y = 3y

12 = 4y

y = 3

x = 3(3)

x = 9

The value of x + y for the given system of equations 2x+2y= 24 and x=3y will be 12.

What is the equation?

There are many different ways to define an equation. The definition of an equation in algebra is a mathematical statement that demonstrates the equality of 2 mathematical expressions.

The equation must be constrained with some constraints.

As per the given system of equations,

2x+2y= 24

x=3y

Take common 2 from 2x+2y= 24 as

2(x + y) = 24

Divide by 2 into both sides

x + y = 12

Hence "The value of x + y for the given system of equations 2x+2y= 24 and x=3y will be 12".

Hello your question is poorly written the complete question is attached below

answer :

a) H0 : p1 = p2

  Ha : p1 ≠ p2

b)  Z = -0.58

c) P-value =  0.561915

d) we will reject the Alternative hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

For sample 1 ;  n1 = 254 , x1 = 28

For sample 2 ; n2 = 301 , x2 = 38

level of significance ∝ = 0.01

P1 = X1 / n1 = 28 / 254  = 0.1102

P2 = X2 / n2 = 38 / 301 = 0.126

a) Determine the null and alternate hypothesis

H0 : p1 = p2

Ha : p1 ≠ p2

b) Determine Test statistic

we perform a Z-statistic to test the hypothesis

Z = [tex]\frac{p1-p1 }{\sqrt{( p(1-p)*(\frac{1}{n1}+\frac{1}{n2}) ) } }[/tex]  -------- ( 1 )

p =  ( x1 + x2 ) / ( n1 + n2 )

= ( 28 + 38 ) / ( 254 + 301 ) = 0.1189

Where: p = 0.1189 , p1 = 0.1102 , p2 = 0.126 ( input values into equation 1 )

∴ Z = -0.58

c) Determine P-value

P-value =  0.561915 ( using excel function )

d) conclusion : since p-value > 0.01 ( level of significance ) we do not reject the null hypothesis.  therefore it proves that p1 = p2

How is the percentage of a value calculated?

The percentage represents a value divided by 100. In this way, saying 25% of a value is the same as saying 25 out of 100, that is, 25 divided by 100. And to find the exact number of absentees in the event, just multiply the whole by the percentage

So in this case, we have the information that:

May: 223 Dinztop salesJune: 148 Dinztop sales.

Using the percentage we have:

[tex]p=\frac{148}{223} = 0.6637[/tex]

This value in percentage that will be:

[tex]0.6637*100\%= 66.37\%[/tex]

Because of the same percent rate, the amoutns sold in June:

[tex]66.37\%*148=98[/tex]
