Consider n independent flips of a coin having probability p of landing on heads. Say that a changeover occurs whenever an outcome differs from the one preceding it. For instance, if n=5 and the outcome is HHTHT, then there are 3 changeovers. Find the expected number of changeovers. Hint: Express the number of changeovers as the sum of n-1 Bernoulli random variables.

Answers

Answer 1

The expected number of transitions is 22p(1-p) when take into account n separate coin flips with a p percent chance of landing on heads.

Given that,

Take into account n separate coin flips with a p percent chance of landing on heads. Say a changeover happens any time an outcome diverges from the one that came before it. For instance, there are 3 changeovers if n=5 and the result is HHTHT.

We have to determine the anticipated number of transitions.

We know that,

Independent flips,

n =12

Probability of heads =p

Probability of tails =(1-p)

Let m=1,2,...n

If mth term may be head then (m+1)th outcome could be head or vice-versa.

Probability of change overs from mth to (m+1)th outcome =2p(1-p)

So, the  expected changeovers is given by

E[change overs] = (n-1) *2p(1-p)

= (12-1) × 2p(1-p)

=11 × 2p(1-p)

=22p(1-p)

Therefore, the expected number of transitions is 22p(1-p) when take into account n separate coin flips with a p percent chance of landing on heads.

Answers

If Diana averages 6 mph walking to school. The distance from  the school to her home is 5.4 miles.

What is distance?

Distance can be defined as how far an object is from another object.

Formula for Distance

Distance = Speed × Time

Solving for t (time) to walk to school

6t = 35 (t-.75)              

6t = 35t - 26.25

Collect like terms

29t= 26.25

Divide both side by  29t

t = 26.25/29

t=  .9

t=54 minutes

Solving for Distance (d)

d = 6× .9

d = 5.4 miles

2. In a random sample of 50 university students (37 females and 13 males), the distribution of time spent at university recreational facilities is strongly skewed to the right for females but not strongly skewed for males. [ Select ] ["Conditions met; proceed with the hypothesis test.", "Conditions not met; do not proceed with the hypothesis test."]
3. In a study of 100 brother-sister sibling pairs at the university, the distribution of time spent at university recreational facilities for the 100 males is compared to the 100 females; both distributions are fairly normal.

Answers

In the following first scenario the conditions for the t-test is not met for the difference in populations mean so the hypothesis test cannot be done.

1)The distribution of time spent at university recreational facilities is considerably skewed to the right in a random sample of 100 university students.

The variable is X, which stands for time spent at the university's leisure facilities.

Because the variable "time" is at least ordinal, this criterion is satisfied.

The sample was drawn at random, hence this requirement is met.

The data is heavily skewed to the right, the normal distribution is symmetrical, and this data set is highly unlikely to have a normal distribution.

2)The distribution of time spent at university recreational facilities is highly skewed to the right for females but not strongly skewed for males in a random sample of 50 university students (37 females and 13 males).

In this scenario, you have two groups of interest, and the variable X: Time spent at the university recreational facilities will be measured for each group.

Because the variable "time" is at least ordinal, this criterion is satisfied.

The samples "male students" and "female students" were randomly taken so this condition tests.

You have two populations of interest in this case. Male university students and female university students are divided into two groups. To use the t-test, both populations must be normal.

The distribution for the females has strongly skewed to the males have a somewhat skewed distribution.

If the distribution of females is substantially skewed, it is impossible for it to be normal.

In this case, a t-test is not appropriate.

3)Because the experimental units are dependent, this is a "paired sample" situation. (Consider the sibling pair's relationship; if they get along well, it is more likely that they will spend time together in the recreational facilities; if their relationship is not so good, it is more likely that the presence of one of the siblings in the facilities will cause the other to spend less time there.)

X will be the variable measured for each member of the "sibling pair": Time spent at university recreational facilities, and the research variable in this case, will be defined by the difference in times measured for both siblings.

The normality condition checks.

so the t-test in this scenario can be applied.

How far is the school
from her home?

Answers

The school is 5.43 miles from Diana's house. This is evaluated by using the speed-distance-time relationship.

What is the relation between the speed-distance-time?

The ratio of distance to time gives speed to an object.

I.e., S = D/T or D = ST ot T = D/S

Calculation:

It is given that,

Diana walks to her school at a speed of 6 mph.

So, the time taken for her to walk is t1 = d/6 hours

Diana returns home by car at a speed of 35 mph.

So, the time taken for her to return by car is t2 = d/35 hours

But it is given that, she takes 3/4 hours less time for returning by car.

Thus, we can write t2 = t1 - 3/4

⇒ d/35 = d/6 - 3/4

⇒ 3/4 = d/6 - d/35 = d(1/6 - 1/35)

⇒ 3/4 = d(29/210)

⇒ d = (3 × 210)/(4 × 29) = 5.431 miles

On rounding the obtained value to the nearest hundredths is 5.43 miles.

Thus, the distance between Diana's home and her school is 5.43 miles.

use a proof by contraposition to show that for integers m and n if m n is even then m is even or n is even

Answers

The contrapositive is true

Proving a contraposition involves proving that the contrapositive of a statement is true. The opposite of "if m n is even then m is even or n is even" is "if m is not even and n is not even then m n is not even".

To prove this statement by a proof by contrast, first assume that m is not even and neither is n. This means that both m and n are odd.

Since m and n are odd, m n is also odd. This can be expressed as:

If m and n are odd, we can write m as;

2k + 1 and n as 2l + 1 for integers k and l.

Then mn = (2k + 1)(2l + 1) = 4kl + 2k + 2l + 1 = 2(2kl + k + l) + 1,

which is odd. Therefore, m n is not even if m is not even and n is not even.

It turns out that the opposite of the original statement is true, so the original statement must also be true. Therefore, if m n is even, then we can say that   that m is even or n is even using a proof by contrast.

Answers

When comparing the proportions of ethnic groups represented in television commercials on Philadelphia stations to census data, we can use a chi-squared test to see if there is a difference.

Suitable hypotheses for this test include the following: H0: P1 = 0.165, P2 = 0.026, P3 = 0.789, and P4 = 0.019 Ha: at least one P1 to P10, where P1, P2, P3, and P4 represent the proportions of the four main ethnic groups—African, Asian, Caucasian, and Hispanic—in the population.

The test statistic cannot be calculated until we get the predicted frequencies for each group under the null hypothesis. Given that N is the total number of observations and E I is the expected frequency for group I, E I = N * P I provides the expected frequency for each group.

the population percentage for group I is P i.

These equations allow us to determine the anticipated frequencies in the following ways:

E 1 = 69 * 0.165 = 11.485

E 2 = 11 * 0.026 = 0.286

E 3 = 330 * 0.789 = 261.67

E 4 = 8 * 0.019 = 0.152

After that, the chi-squared test statistic is calculated as follows: x2 = ∑_(i=1)4 [(O i - E i)2 / E i], where O i is the observed frequency for group I and E i is the anticipated frequency for group i.

The numbers for the observed and anticipated frequencies are substituted to produce the following equation: x2 = (69 - 11.485)2 / 11.485 + (11 - 0.286)2 / 0.286 + (330 - 261.67)2 / 261.67 + (8 - 0.152)2 / 0.152

= 57.015^2

nikki williams wishes to evaluate the risk and return behaviors associated with various combinations of assets x and y

Answers

Nikki can use modern portfolio theory to assess the risk and return behaviors associated with different combinations of assets X and Y.

Modern portfolio theory involves calculating the expected return and risk of a portfolio of assets by analyzing the correlations between the assets. It also looks at the diversification benefits of combining different assets and the impact of adding riskier assets to a portfolio. By quantifying the risk and return behaviors of different portfolios, Nikki can make informed decisions about which portfolios are most suitable for her.Modern portfolio theory is used to assess the risk and return behaviors of different combinations of assets X and Y.

assume that the heights of of adult males in a certain region are normally distributed. the heights (in inches) of 20 randomly selected adult males from this region are listed below: 70 72 71 70 69 73 69 68 70 71 67 71 70 74 69 68 71 71 71 72 use this sample data and a .05 significance level to test the claim that the variance of all heights in this region is less than 6.25.

Answers

The sample variance is 2.976 , which means it's lesser than 6.25. We calculate this using the standard method.

Given:

Sample data is 0.05

The sample size is 20.

And ,

The hypotheses are:

H0: sigma^2 = 6.25 (>=)

Ha: sigma^2 < 6.25

The critical value is 10.117. If the test statistic is less than this value, we'll reject the null hypothesis. We Reject the null hypothesis when the p-value is less than or equal to your significance level. Your sample data favor the alternative hypothesis, which suggests that the effect exists in the population. For a mnemonic device, remember—when the p-value is low, the null must go.

The test statistic is:

2.976 * 19 / 6.25 = 9.047.

So we reject the null hypothesis. The variance is not 6.25, which means it is lesser then 6.25

As per question and the information provided we can compute the solution for both exercises as follows:

Investments are defined as assets bought or invested in with the goal of increasing wealth and setting aside funds from salary or capital gains. The main goal of an investment is to generate additional revenue or to make money on the investment over a certain amount of time.

Exercise (a)

The sequence "an "'s" first five terms are:

[tex]a1 = 6000(1.04) = 6240 [/tex]

[tex]a2 = 6000(1.04) ^2 = 6489.6 [/tex]

[tex]a3 = 6000(1.04)^3 = 6749.184 [/tex]

[tex]a4 = 6000(1.04) ^4 = 7019.151 [/tex]

[tex]a5 = 6000(1.04)^5 = 7299.197[/tex]

Exercise (b)

Because infinity, which is not a finite number, serves as the series's limit as n approaches infinity, the sequence is divergent.

[tex]an = 6000(1.04)^n [/tex]

that is the formula for the nth term of the sequence. As n rises, the value of

[tex](1.04)^n[/tex]

it grows steadily larger, which causes a to grow steadily larger until it approaches infinity. The sequence "an" diverges as a result.

The length of DE is 6.3

Similar triangles are triangles that have a similar appearance but differ in size.

Two triangles are similar if their angles are the same (corresponding angles) and their sides have the same ratio or proportion (corresponding sides)

If two triangles are similar, it means that their corresponding angle pairs are all equal.All triangle corresponding sides are proportional.

The " ~ " symbol is used to represent similarity.

According to the question,

In ΔABC and ΔDBE,

(1) ∠B = ∠B (common)

(2) ∠ACB = ∠DEB (opposite sides are equal)

(2) ∠CAB = ∠ECB

Therefore , ΔABC ~ ΔDBE

By using similar triangle property

The ratio of correspond sides are equal ,

AB/BD = BC/BE = AC/DE

=> 2/1 = AC/DE

=> 12.6 / DE = 2/1

=> DE =  12.6/2

=> DE = 6.3

A manufacturer of floor mops would like her product to last 700 hours, on the average. She hopes the mean number of hours is not a lot less than 700 (people will not continue to buy her product) or a lot more than 700 (people would seldom have to buy the product). However, the manufacturer has reason to believe the mean may have changed. A random sample of 48 items shows that sample mean = 675 and sample standard deviation = 77 hours. Use the significance level α=.05. What is the appropriate test to perform? Regarding the hypothesis testing in question 1, what is the rejection region? Regarding the hypothesis testing in question 1, what is the p-value of the test? Round your answer to four decimal places Regarding the hypothesis testing in question 1, what is your conlusion?

Answers

The appropriate test to perform is one sample t test

The rejection reason is t statistic less than -2.012 or t statistic more than -2.012

The p value of the test is 0.0292

Firstly,

       As the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is more than 30, it is appropriate to use one sample t test for this hypothesis testing

Testing if the mean is changed from 700 levels or not

Null and alternate hypothesis are 700

Degree of freedom,

                       n-1

                      = 48-1

                      = 47

Using alpha level 0.05 and t critical table, we found the following two critical values

t critical values= -2.012 and 2.012

So, the rejection reason is t statistic less than -2.012 or t statistic more than -2.012

Now,

        Population means = 700 hours

        Sample mean = 675 hours

        n = 48

So,

Test statistic= (mean-alternate hypothesis)/(s/√n)

                     = (675-700)/ (77/√48)

                     =-25/11.1140

                     = -2.249

Degree of freedom = n-1

                                  = 48-1  

                                  = 47

With t distribution table for -2.249 and 47 degrees of freedom obtain p value of 0.0292

So, pvalue= 0.0292

Reject null hypothesis since the p value is less than alpha level

So, we conclude that the mean has changed from 700 hours
