The correct option is A

Step-by-step breakdown:

You have been presented with the table

\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Green eyes}&\text{Other eye color}&\text{Total}\\\text{Red hair}&18&29&47\\\text{Other hair color}&114&650&764\\\text{Total}&132&679&811\end{array}

The probabilities should be calculated:

\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Green eyes}&\text{Other eye color}&\text{Total}\\\text{Red hair}&\dfrac{18}{811}&\dfrac{29}{811}&\dfrac{47}{811}\\ \\\text{Other hair color}&\dfrac{114}{811}&\dfrac{650}{811}&\dfrac{764}{811}\\ \\\text{Total}&\dfrac{132}{811}&\dfrac{679}{811}&\dfrac{811}{811}\end{array}

Instead of x, it should be

\dfrac{114}{811}\approx 0.14=14\%.

The life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed with a mean of 40,000 and a standard deviation of 5,00
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer: the likelihood of a randomly selected tire lasting exactly 47,500 miles is 0.067

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the expected lifespan of this tire brand follows a normal distribution, we will use the normal distribution formula:

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = lifespan of the tire in miles.

µ = mean

σ = standard deviation

The given figures include,

µ = 40000 miles

σ = 5000 miles

The probability that a tire will last precisely 47,500 miles

P(x = 47500)

For x = 47500,

z = (40000 - 47500) / 5000 = -1.5

According to the standard normal distribution table, the probability associated with this z score is 0.067

Kayla says that the point labeled C in the diagram below is the center. Raymond says that point C is the radius. A sphere. The c
Leona [12618]

Answer:

Kayla is right; the center constitutes a fixed point located at the sphere's core.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kayla is indeed correct, whereas Raymond is mistaken since a point itself cannot represent a radius; a radius is defined as the line segment stretching from the center to the surface.

The center is indeed the stable point positioned at the center of the sphere.

Sanjit drives the 45 km distance between York and Leeds he then drives a further 42 km from Leeds to Blackpool
Leona [12618]

The average speed for his entire journey from York to Blackpool is about 61.41 km/h.

Here’s a breakdown of how we arrive at this:

\text{ The average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}

The distance he travelled from York to Leeds is 45 km,

and the speed during that section was 54 km/h.

Therefore, the time taken to travel from York to Leeds is 45/54 hours (since Time = Distance/Speed).

Next, the distance from Leeds to Blackpool is 42 km,

and the time for that leg of the journey is 35 minutes, which is 35/60 hours.

This leads to the total duration for his trip as

=\frac{45}{54}+\frac{35}{60}=\frac{450+315}{540}=\frac{765}{540}=\frac{17}{12} hours.

The cumulative distance covered equals 45 + 42 = 87 km.

Thus, his average speed is calculated as:

=\frac{87}{17/12}= \frac{12\times 87}{17}=\frac{1044}{17}=61.4117647\approx 61.41\text{ km per hour}

We flip a fair coin five times. For every heads you pay me $1 and for every tails I pay you $1. Let X denote the my net winning
AnnZ [12381]
The probability mass function of X equals 0.03. To clarify:
Assuming the requirement for winning is one side as heads and the opposing side as tails, the likelihood of both outcomes is 1/2 or 0.5. Thus, we can construct a graph to calculate all probabilities related to achieving heads. In this context, X indicates the dollar amounts won during the coin flips, while the probability of heads reflects the likelihood of each outcome and the potential winnings. The chances of winning decrease as the winning amount rises.

Paul, Kevin, Justin, and David will share the cost of buying a fishing boat.
PIT_PIT [12445]
For Paul, the calculation is 2550 * 0.2 = 510. For Kevin, it's 2550 * 0.25 = 637.5. Justin's calculation is 2550 * 0.3 = 765. Lastly, David's portion, calculated as 2550 minus the others' contributions, results in 637.5.
