Selecting a State Choose one of the 50 states at
random.
a. What is the probability that it begins with M?
b. What is the probability that it doesn't begin with a
vowel?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

PART ONE- 8/50 PART 2-38/50

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we know that there are 50 states. Lets see how many states begins with M first.

Maine‎ (27 C, 5 P)

Maryland‎ (28 C, 5 P)

Massachusetts‎ (29 C, 4 P)

Michigan‎ (28 C, 4 P)

Minnesota‎ (28 C, 2 P)

Mississippi‎ (27 C, 6 P)

Missouri‎ (25 C, 3 P)

Montana‎ (27 C, 6 P)

There are 8 states which means that the probabilty is 8/50 which simplifies to 4/25

We know that 12 states begins with a vowel. 50-12 is 38/50

Answer 2

The probability that it begins with M is 0.16 and the probability that it doesn't begin with a vowel is 0.76

What is probability?

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur.

Given that, Selecting a State, Choose one of the 50 states at random.

We know that, P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

where, P(A) is the probability of an event “A” n(A) is the number of favourable outcomes. n(S) is the total number of events in the sample space.

a) There are 8 states which begins with M, that means the probability = 8/50 = 4/25 = 0.16

b) We know that 12 states begins with a vowel,

Therefore, the probability that it doesn't begin with a vowel = 1 - 12/50 = 38/50 = 0.76

Hence, The probability that it begins with M is 0.16 and the probability that it doesn't begin with a vowel is 0.76

3. What is the slope of 3y - 4x = 12?

Answers

Answer: (3,0)

Step-by-step explanation: x=0

3y=12

divide both sides by 3 you get

y=4   now you have y axis ( equation x=0) at the point its (0,4)

but if you put y=0 then you get

4x=12

and then x=3

so i think the answer is (3,0)

Answers

Answer:

The estimated gain in score for a student who is given an additional 32 minutes on the exam is 16.96

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimated regression prediction is given by:

[tex]\hat{y}=40+0.53x[/tex]

Where x denotes the time

y denotes the average score

A)

Substitute x = 98

[tex]\hat{y}=40+0.53(98) = 91.94[/tex]

B)

Substitute x = 129

[tex]\hat{y}=40+0.53(129) = 108.37[/tex]

C)

Substitute x = 159

[tex]\hat{y}=40+0.53(159) = 124.27[/tex]

D)the estimated gain in score for a student who is given an additional 32 minutes on the exam.

[tex]\hat{y}=40+0.53(x+32)=40+0.53x+9.57=y+16.96[/tex]

So, the estimated gain in score for a student who is given an additional 32 minutes on the exam is 16.96
