A Fair Coin Is Tossed Four Times. What Is The Probability Of Obtaining At Least Three Tails?

Answers

Answer 1

The probability of obtaining at least three tails is; 5/16

When tossing a coin four times, the number of possibilities since one is either a tail or head is;

Total number of possibilities = 2⁴ = 16

Now, various ways of getting at least three tails are;

TTTH, TTHT, THTT, HTTT, and TTTT.

This is a total of 5 different ways.

Thus;

P(obtaining at least 3 tails) = 5/16

find the solution of the general equation of the differential equation:
(1-cosx)y' - ysinx =0, x ≠ k2π

Answers

Notice that the condition x ≠ 2πk for (presumably) integer k means cos(x) ≠ ±1, and in particular cos(x) ≠ 1 so that we could divide both sides by (1 - cos(x)) safely. Doing so lets us separate the variables:

(1 - cos(x)) y' - y sin(x) = 0

==>   (1 - cos(x)) y' = y sin(x)

==>   y'/y = sin(x)/(1 - cos(x))

==>   dy/y = sin(x)/(1 - cos(x)) dx

Integrate both sides and solve for y. On the right, substitute u = 1 - cos(x) and du = sin(x) dx.

∫ dy/y = ∫ sin(x)/(1 - cos(x)) dx

∫ dy/y = ∫ du/u

ln|y| = ln|u| + C

exp(ln|y|) = exp(ln|u| + C )

exp(ln|y|) = exp(ln|u|) exp(C )

y = Cu

Answers

Base case (n = 1):

• On the left side: 1/(1×2) = 1/2

• On the right side: 1/(1 + 1) = 1/2

Induction hypothesis: Assume the statement is true for n = k ; that is,

1/(1×2) + 1/(2×3) + … + 1/(k × (k + 1))) = k/(k + 1)

Inductive step (n = k + 1):

1/(1×2) + 1/(2×3) + … + 1/(k × (k + 1))) + 1/((k + 1) × (k + 2)))

= k/(k + 1) + 1/((k + 1) × (k + 2))

= (k × (k + 2) + 1) / ((k + 1) × (k + 2))

= (k ² + 2k + 1) / ((k + 1) × (k + 2))

= (k + 1)² / ((k + 1) × (k + 2))

= (k + 1) / (k + 2)

You're looking for a solution in the form

[tex]y(x) = \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n[/tex]

Differentiating, we get

[tex]y'(x) = \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty na_nx^{n-1} = \sum_{n=1}^\infty na_nx^{n-1} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)a_{n+1}x^n[/tex]

[tex]y''(x) = \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)na_{n+1}x^{n-1} = \sum_{n=1}^\infty (n+1)na_{n+1}x^{n-1} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}x^n[/tex]

Substitute these for y' and y'' in the differential equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}x^n - \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)a_{n+1}x^n = 0[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty \bigg((n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}-(n+1)a_{n+1}\bigg)x^n = 0[/tex]

Then the coefficients of y are given by the recurrence

[tex]\begin{cases}a_0=y(0)\\a_1=y'(0)\\a_{n+2}=\frac{a_{n+1}}{n+2}&\text{for }n\ge0\end{cases}[/tex]

or

[tex]a_n = \dfrac{a_{n-1}}n[/tex]

But we cannot assume that [tex]a_0[/tex] and [tex]a_1[/tex] depend on each other; we can only guarantee that the recurrence holds for n ≥ 1, so that

[tex]a_2=\dfrac{a_1}2 \\\\ a_3=\dfrac{a_2}3=\dfrac{a_1}{3\times2} \\\\ a_4=\dfrac{a_3}4=\dfrac{a_1}{4\times3\times2} \\\\ \vdots \\\\ a_n=\dfrac{a_1}{n!}[/tex]

So in the power series solution, we split off the constant term and we're left with

[tex]y(x) = a_0 + a_1 \displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}[/tex]

so that the fundamental solutions are

[tex]y_1=1[/tex]

Find two consecutive even numbers whose sum is 758.

Answers

Answer:

378 and 380

Step-by-step explanation:

The two even consecutive numbers that add up to 758 are going to be very close to half of 758. This is because two half of 758 are going to be the most similar addends of 758. This is important because the answers will be consecutive and therefore, must also be very similar. To solve, first, divide 758 by 2. This is 379, which is not an even number. So, to find the needed addends subtract and add 1 to 379. Both of these will be even and consecutive. These two numbers are 378 and 380. Then, to check you, can add them and see that they do sum 758.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number = x

Let the second number = x + 2

x + x + 2 = 758                      Collect like terms

2x + 2 = 758                         Subtract 2

2x = 758 - 2                          Combine

2x = 756                                Divide by 2

2x/2 = 756/2

x = 378

The first number is 378

The second number 380

If your teacher is really fussy, you can do it this way.

Let the first number = 2x

Let the second number = 2x + 2

The reason for this is to guarantee that both numbers were even to start with.

2x + 2x+2 = 758                    Combine like terms

4x + 2 = 758                          Subtract 2

4x = 756                                Divide by 4

x = 756/4

x = 189

Therefore 2x = 378

2x + 2 = 380                 Just as before.

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines can be used to find the resultant ground speed. In the attached diagram, the length of interest is OR. It will be found as ...

  OR² = OP² +PR² -2·OP·PR·cos(P)

  OR² = 130² +26² -2×130×26×cos(32°) ≈ 11843.19

  OR = √11843.19 ≈ 108.8

__

The angle POR can be found from the law of sines.

  sin(POR)/PR = sin(OPR)/OR

  sin(POR) = PR/OR×sin(32°) ≈ 0.12660

  ∠POR ≈ arcsin(0.12660) ≈ 7.27°

Then the bearing of the ground track of the airplane is 77° +7.27° = 84.27°.

The airplane is traveling at about 108.8 km/h on a bearing of 84.3°.

If the radius of the circle is perpendicular to the chord of the circle, the radius bisects the chord. The two strings are congruent only if they are equidistant from the center of the circle.

No, not all strings in a circle are diameters because the diameter passes through the center of the circle. Therefore, all the diameters of a circle are also strings, not all the strings of a circle.

No. The F test has a requirement that samples be from the normally distributed populations, regardless of how large the samples are.

The F-test simply shows whether the variances that are in the numerator and the denominator are equal. The F-test can be applied on a large sampled population.

One main assumption of the F test is that the populations where the two samples are drawn are normally distributed.

a basketball player makes each free-throw with a probability of 0.3 and is on the line for a one-and-one free throw. (that is, a second throw is allowed only if the first is successful.) what is the probability that the player will score 0 points

Answers

Answer:

0.7 = 70% probability that the player will score 0 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each free throw, we have these following probabilities:

0.3 probability the player makes.

0.7 probability the player misses.

What is the probability that the player will score 0 points?

He is only allowed the second if he misses the first, thus, he ends with 0 points only if he misses the first.

For any free throw:

0.7 probability the player misses, so 0.7 = 70% probability that the player misses the first free throw, and 0.7 = 70% probability that the player will score 0 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, I would say copy the example, using 70,000 instead of 55,000. However, the example you show has a couple of errors in it. You need to do what it says, not follow what it did.

__

The first 48,535 is taxed at 15%, so the tax is 0.15×48535 = 7280.25.

The next (70,000 -48,535) = 21,465 is taxed at 20.5%, so the tax is ...

  0.205×21,465 = 4400.325 ≈ 4400.33

The the total tax due on $70,000 is ...

  $7280.25 +4400.33 = $11,680.58 . . . . tax due on $70,000

_____

Additional comments

The example shown has a couple of errors. The tax on the excess amount is figured at 2.05%, not 20.5%, and the 132.53 value from that is shown as 132.23.

__

Any tax table like this one can be reduced to a set of simpler formulas. Here are the formulas for the brackets shown in your tax table.

  ≤ 48535 -- income × 0.15

  ≤ 97069 -- income × 0.205 -2669.425

  ≤ 150,473 -- income × 0.26 -8008.22

  ≤ 214,368 -- income × 0.29 -12,522.41

  > 214,368 -- income × 0.33 -21,097.13

In this case, the second row of this simpler table would give the tax on $70,000 as ...

  tax = 70,000 × 0.205 -2669.425

  tax = 14350 -2669.425 = 11680.575 ≈ 11,680.58 . . . same as above

An article reported that, in a study of a particular wafer inspection process, 356 dies were examined by an inspection probe and 244 of these passed the probe. Assuming a stable process, calculate a 95% (two-sided) confidence interval for the proportion of all dies that pass the probe. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all dies that pass the probe is (0.637, 0.733).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

356 dies were examined by an inspection probe and 244 of these passed the probe.

This means that [tex]n = 356, \pi = \frac{244}{356} = 0.685[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].  

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.685 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.685*0.315}{356}} = 0.637[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.685 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.685*0.315}{356}} = 0.733[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all dies that pass the probe is (0.637, 0.733).
