According to Bill Nye, How many people need to be in a room for there to be 50% chance of atleast 2 people having the same birthday?a. 128 b. 56 c. 29 d. 12

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is actually 23 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill Nye's birthday paradox can be explained in the following manner:

first we must find the probability that in a room with 23 people, no two people have the same birthday

probability of no two people having the same birthday = 365/365 x 364/365 x 363/365 x 362/365 ... you keep multiplying until 343/365 = 0.492703

so the probability that in a room with 23 people, no two people have the same birthday = 49.2703%

the probability of two people having the same birthday = 1 - probability of no two people having the same birthday = 1 - 49.2703% = 50.7297%

Challenge Schools A and B are competing in an academic contest. Correct answers earn 9 points.

Incorrect answers lose 2 points. In the final round, School A gives the same number of correct and

incorrect answers. School B gives no incorrect answers and the same number of correct answers as

School A. School A started the final round with 62 points. School B started with 24. The game ends

with the two schools tied. Let x represent the number of correct answers given by School A in the final

round. Write an equation that models the outcome of the contest. Then find the number of answers

that each school got correct in the final round.

Which equation models the scoring in the final round and the outcome of the contest?

OA. 9x + 2x - 62 = - 9x + 24

OB. 2x-9x + 62 = 9x + 24

OC. 9x - 2x - 62 = 9x + 24

OD. 9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

Answers

Answer:

9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

Number of correct answer each obtained = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of correct answers = x

POINTS for correct answers = 9

POINTS for incorrect answers = - 2

SCHOOL A:

Number of correct answers = x

Number of incorrect answers = x

Initial point = 62

Initial point + 9(number of correct answers) + - 2(number of incorrect answers)

62 + 9x - 2x

SCHOOL B :

Number of correct answers = x

Number of incorrect answers = 0

Initial point = 24

Initial point + 9(number of correct answers) + - 2(number of incorrect answers

24 + 9x

Since they end up tied :

School A = School B

62 + 9x - 2x = 24 + 9x

9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

Number of correct answers gotten :

9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

7x + 62 = 9x + 24

7x - 9x = 24 - 62

-2x = - 38

x = 19

Hence, Number of correct answers each obtained = 19

A designer plans to create a new pattern of stitching a triangular piece of fabric shown in the figure above. She will stitch fabric in a straight line from the vertices of the triangle to the circumcenter of the triangle, located at point C, and then stitch an additional line of fabric back from the circumcenter to each vertex. How much fabric, in inches, will she need in total to create the design? (Note: Answer should be a whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumcenter is the middle to each vertex. So since they gave you 9 in. and you have to go back and forth on each line, that is 18 in. per line. Considering there are three lines, add all of them together (Or multiple 18 by 3) to get 54 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct statements about triangle PQR.are given by options A), B), and F) and this can be determined by using the trigonometric functions.

Given :

In triangle PQR, angle P is 60°, angle Q is 30° and angle R is 90°.

The trigonometric functions can be used in order to determine the correct statements about triangle PQR.

[tex]\rm sin30 = \dfrac{PR}{QP}[/tex]

[tex]\rm PQ = 2\;PR[/tex]

[tex]\rm cos30 = \dfrac{QR}{QP}[/tex]

[tex]\rm PR=\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2}\;PQ[/tex]

[tex]\rm tan30 = \dfrac{PR}{QR}[/tex]

00:00 The product of 64 and 13 can be rewritten as the sum of two products. Which expression is equal to 64 x 13? A. (60 x 13) + (60 x 4) B. (10 x 60) + (4 x 3) O C. (60 x 13) + (4 x 13) O D. (60 x 1) + (60 x 4)​

Answers

Answer:

∴ The expression which is equal to 64 x 13 is (60 × 13) + (4 × 13) ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two numbers can be put in the form of the sum of two products by using this rule, m × n =  (a × n) + (b × n), where m = a + b

Let us solve the question using this rule

∵ We need to put 64 × 13 as the sum of two products

→ Let m = 64 and n = 13

m = 64 and n = 13

∵ 64 = 60 + 4

a = 60 and b = 4

→ By using the rule above

∵ m × n = (a × n) + (b × n)

∵ a = 60, b = 4, and n = 13

64 × 13 = (60 × 13) + (4 × 13)

The expression which is equal to 64 x 13 is (60 × 13) + (4 × 13)

In a clinical trial of oxycodone, 16 subjects experience headaches among the 227 subjects treated with oxycodone. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of treated subjects who experience headaches. Provide both probabilistic and practical interpretations. (Hint: this is proportion problem).

Answers

Answer:

95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval if a proportion is:

p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

z = z score of a 95% confidence interval = 1.96

p = proportion = x/n

x = 16, n = 227

p = 16/227

p = 0.0704845815

≈ 0.0705

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0705(1 - 0.0705)/227

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0002886773

= 0.0705 ± 0.0333013921

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 - 0.0333013921

= 0.0371986079

≈ 0.037

= 0.0705 + 0.0333013921

= 0.1038013921

≈ 0.104

Hence, 95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)
