Answer:
550
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 17% of the applicants (3,240) will receive acceptance.
0.17 * 3,240 = 550.8
Thus, 550 students will gain acceptance
we must round down since only 17% can be accepted, and having 0.8 of a person is not feasible
hope this helps
A. Mean and standard deviation.
The sampling distribution’s mean closely matches the population mean. Since the population mean is 174.5, the sampling distribution’s mean equals this value.
The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is:
σₓ̄ = σ / √n
Plugging in values:
σₓ̄ = 6.9 / √25 = 1.38
b. Calculate z-scores for both values:
z = (value - mean) / standard deviation
For 172.5:
z = (172.5 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.49
Corresponding probability ≈ 0.068
For 175.8:
z = (175.8 - 174.5) / 1.38 = 0.94
Corresponding probability ≈ 0.83
The difference between these probabilities is 0.762.
Approximately 0.762 × 200 = 152 sample means lie between 172.5 and 175.8.
c. Z-score for 172 cm:
z = (172 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.81
Probability ≈ 0.03
Hence, samples with means below 172 cm equal 0.03 × 200 = 6.
Solution:
In Mr. Skinner's class, the count of students bringing lunch from home is 12 out of 20.
Fraction of students who brought lunch from home in Mr. Skinner's class=
For Ms. Cho's class, the number who brought lunch from home is 14 out of 21.
Fraction of students who brought lunch from home in Ms. Cho's class=
Siloni is utilizing two spinners with 15 equal sections to randomly select students from the classes and predict whether they brought lunch or will purchase it from the cafeteria.
Number of Equal sections in each Spinner=15
To visualize the students from Mr. Skinner's class who brought lunch using a Spinner with 15 equal sections =
For Ms. Cho's class, using a Spinner with 15 equal sections =
Mr. Skinner's Class +1 = Ms. Cho's Class
This means that the spinner for Ms. Cho's class will include one additional section representing students who brought lunch.
Option A signifies that one additional section on Mr. Skinner's spinner represents students who brought lunch, reflecting Ms. Cho's class.
Answer:
i) A total of 40320 different arrangements
ii) For the initial 3 spots, there are 336 different combinations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The total finalists = 8
The count of boys = 3
The count of girls = 5
To determine the number of sample point in the sample space S for possible arrangements, we calculate the factorial of 8!
The number of possible arrangements equals 8!
= 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7 x 8
= 40320
ii) Among the 8 finalists, we must select the first 3 spots. The sequence matters, hence we utilize permutation.
nPr =
Here n = 8 and r = 3
Substituting n = 8 and r = 3 into the formula, we arrive at
8P3 = 
= 
= 6.7.8
= 336
Thus, there are 336 different arrangements for the first 3 spots.
Answer:
Possible values for X include;
15, 30, 45, 60, and so on
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters provided are
Number of chocolates Tanmay possessed = X
Number of chocolates given to Akash = 1/3 × X
Number of chocolates given to Sharad = 1/5 × X
Consequently, since both 3 and 5 divide X,
3 × 5 = 15 is the smallest single factor of X.
Thus, the values of X based on this minimum factor are as follows;
15 × 1 = 15
15 × 2 = 30
15 × 3 = 45
15 × 4 = 60
Therefore, potential values for X form an arithmetic series: a + (n - 1) × d
Where:
a = 15
n = 1, 2, 3, 4,...
d = 15
This results in;
15, 30, 45, 60
