The probability that a truck will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin is about 75%. Suppose a random sample of five trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77. a. Find the mean of this probability distribution. Show the formula and your work. b. Interpret the mean in the context of the problem. c. Find the standard deviation of this probability distribution. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. d. Find the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding. e. Find the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding.
Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X = number of trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.
The probability of X is, p = 0.75.
A random sample of n = 5 trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77.
The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 0.75.
(a)
Compute the mean as follows:
[tex]\mu=n\times p=5\times 0.75=3.75[/tex]
The mean of this probability distribution is 3.75.
(b)
The mean of 3.75 implies that on average 3.75 trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.
(c)
Compute the standard deviation as follows:
[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5\times 0.75\times (1-0.75)}=0.968[/tex]
Thus, the standard deviation of this probability distribution is 0.97.
(d)
Compute the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:
[tex]P(X=3)={5\choose 3}(0.75)^{3}(1-0.75)^{5-3}\\\\=10\times 0.421875\times 0.0625\\\\=0.263671875\\\\\approx 0.2637[/tex]
Thus, the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.2637.
(e)
Compute the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:
[tex]P(X<3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)\\\\=\sum\limits^{2}_{x=0}{{5\choose x}(0.75)^{x}(1-0.75)^{5-x}}\\\\=0.0009765625+0.0146484375+0.087890625\\\\=0.103515625\\\\\approx 0.1035[/tex]
Thus, the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.1035.

Explain how to write fractions with denominators of 10 and 100 as decimals.
To write fractions with denominators of 10 and 100 as decimals, the position of the zero to the right of the number in the numerator is shifted a number of places left depending on the power of 10 in the denominator
Reason:
Examples of fractions that has 10 and 100 as denominators are;
[tex]\dfrac{9}{10}, \ \dfrac{15}{100}, \ \dfrac{5}{100}[/tex]
The steps to express the above fractions as decimals are;
Place a decimal point to the right to the number in the numerator as follows;
[tex]\dfrac{9.}{10}, \ \dfrac{15.}{100}, \ \dfrac{5.}{100}[/tex]
Move the decimal point to the left a number of places equal to the number of zeros in the denominator
Where the denominator is a 10, the decimal point is moved left one place and place a zero to the left of the decimal point
Where the denominator is a 100, the decimal point is moved left two places, as follows;
[tex]\dfrac{9.}{10} = 0.9, \ \dfrac{15.}{100} = 0.15, \ \dfrac{5.}{100}= 0.05[/tex]
Therefore, the decimal point is moved left depending on the number of zeros or the power of 10 in the denominator
100 = 10² in the denominator (move the decimal point two places left)
10 = 10¹ in the denominator (move the decimal point one place left)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This questions bothers permutation since permutation talks about arrangement.
The number of ways n objects can be arranged is n! ways
n! = n(n-1)(n-2)!
If a family of 5 is going on a cross-country vacation, and decided to change their seating arrangement. The total seating arrangement that they can have is;
5! = 5*4*3*2*1

Candidate A and Candidate B are running for mayor. A poll was taken to determine which candidate would likely win the election. The poll is accurate within ±5%. Write an absolute value equation to find the maximum and minimum percentage of voters who will vote for Candidate A if 38% of the voters in the poll voted for Candidate A. Let A represent the percent of voters who will vote for Candidate A.
Answer:
[tex]|A-38|=5[/tex]
33% or 43%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that poll is accurate within [tex]\pm5[/tex].
38% voters have voted for candidate A.
[tex]A[/tex] is the percent of voters who will vote for candidate A.
So, value of A can be 38+5=43%
OR
38-5 = 33%
We will write an absolute function for the above situation.
But, first of all, let us have a look at the definition of Absolute value function.
[tex]|y|=\left \{ {-{y}\ if\ y<0 \atop {y}\ if\ y>0} \right.[/tex]
The the value of function gives us a negative sign when the value inside the modulus function is negative.
[tex]A-38[/tex] will be negative when [tex]A < 38[/tex] and
[tex]A-38[/tex] will be positive when [tex]A>38[/tex].
This difference is given as [tex]\pm5[/tex].
Therefore, the absolute value function can be written as:
[tex]|A-38|=5[/tex]
Case 1: [tex]A < 38[/tex]
As per definition of modulus function, it will open with a negative sign.
[tex]-A+38=5\Rightarrow A = 33[/tex]
Case 2: [tex]A>38[/tex]
As per definition of modulus function, it will open with a positive sign.
[tex]A-38=5\Rightarrow A = 43[/tex]
Therefore the answer is 33% or 43%

The length of the rope the woman is holding is 7.3 m long. The woman hopes to land in the water at a point that is 13.7 m away from where she stands on the large rock. The angle between the point where the rope is tied and her landing spot in the water is 89°. What is the distance between the the point where the rope is tied and the point where she wants to land to the nearest tenth of a metre.
Answer:
6.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The image attached is a representation of the question. to the river hence the distance between the place where she landed and the rock where she was standing must be horizontal. We are now required to find the shortest vertical distance between the point where the rope was tied and the place where she wants to land.
Note that the woman used the rope to move down in
Applying the cosine rule;
[tex]c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} -2ab Cos C[/tex]
[tex]c^{2} = 13.7^{2} + 7.3^{2} - 2(13.7 *7.3) Cos 89o[/tex]

2x+b=w,for x i need to know what this answer is
Answer:
Let's take this step by step:
2x+b=w
2x+b-b=w-b (the basics to what we are trying to do is to get x alone so that it equals whatever is on the other side of the equation.)
2x=w-b(now that we got rid of the b on the left side of the equation by canceling it out, we have to subtract by b on the other side of the equation as well)
2x divided by 2=w-b/2 (For our final step x is being mulitplied by 2 so what we can do to get x alone is canel out the multiplication by dividing by 2. What this does is it leaves x alone showing us what x equals)
x=w-b/2

The sum of the average amounts spent for veterinary expenses for dogs, cats, and birds in a recent year was $293 The average expenditure per dog exceeded the sum of the averages for cats and birds by $113. The amount spent per cat was times the amount spent per bird. Find the average amount spent on each type of animal.
The question is incomplete:
The sum of the average amounts spent for veterinary expenses for dogs, cats, and birds in a recent year was $293 The average expenditure per dog exceeded the sum of the averages for cats and birds by $113. The amount spent per cat was 9 times the amount spent per bird. Find the average amount spent on each type of animal.
Answer:
The average amount spent in dogs is $203, in cats is $81 and in birds is $9.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given, you can write the following equations:
x+y+z=293 (1)
x-y-z=113 (2)
y=9z (3)
You can replace (3) in (1) and (2):
x+9z+z=293
x+10z=293 (4)
x-9z-z=113
x-10z=113 (5)
Now, you have the following equations:
x+10z=293 (4)
x-10z=113 (5)
Then, you can isolate x in (4):
x=293-10z (6)
Next, you can replace (6) in (5):
293-10z-10z=113
293-20z=113
293-113=20z
180=20z
z=180/20
z=9
Now, you can replace the value of z in (6) to find x:
x=293-10z
x=293-10(9)
x=293-90
x=203
Finally, you can replace the value z in (3) to find y:
y=9*(9)
y=81
According to this, the answer is that the average amount spent in dogs is $203, in cats is $81 and in birds is $9.

Al saves pennies. He agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl in turn would give 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani. Bev, Carl, and Dani agreed and Dani received pennies. How many pennies did Al have initially
Answer:
2744
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Al had x pennies initially.
Al agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl in turn would give 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani.
So, as per the given condition,
The number of Pennies received by Ben from Al [tex]= \frac{3}{7} x[/tex]
The number of Pennies received by Carl from Bev
[tex]=\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{3}{7} x=\frac{9}{49}x[/tex]
The number of Pennies received by Dani from Carl
[tex]= \frac{3}{7}\times \frac{9}{49}x=\frac{27}{343} x[/tex]
Now, as Dani received 216 Pennies, so
[tex]\frac{27}{343} x =216[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{216\times 343}{27}=2744.[/tex]
Hence, initially, Al had 2744 Pennies.
