Consider randomly selecting a student who is among the 12,000 registered for the current semester in a college. Let X be the number of courses the selected student is taking, and suppose that X has the following probability distribution: x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 f(x) 0.01 0.02 0.12 0.25 0.42 0.16 0.02 a. Find the cdf of X. b. Find the expected number of courses a student is taking this semester. c. Find the variance of X. d. Find the third quartile of this distribution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = 0.01[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = 0.03[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = 0.15[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 0.40[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 5) = 0.82[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 6) = 0.98[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = 1[/tex]

b)

4.61

c) 1.1579

d) 5 is the third quartile of this distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following discrete distribution:

[tex]P(X = 1) = 0.01[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = 0.02[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = 0.12[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = 0.42[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = 0.16[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = 0.02[/tex]

a. Find the cdf of X.

Probability of X being less of equal to x. Than

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 1) = 0.01[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.01 + 0.02 = 0.03[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X \leq 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.03 + 0.12 = 0.15[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = P(X \leq 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.15 + 0.25 = 0.40[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 5) = P(X \leq 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.4 + 0.42 = 0.82[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 6) = P(X \leq 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.82 + 0.16 = 0.98[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X \leq 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.98 + 0.02 = 1[/tex]

b. Find the expected number of courses a student is taking this semester.

Multiplication of every outcome by its probability.

[tex]E = 0.01*1 + 0.02*2 + 0.12*3 + 0.25*4 + 0.42*5 + 0.16*6 + 0.02*7 = 4.61[/tex]

c. Find the variance of X.

Multiplication of the squared subtraction of each value and the mean, multiplied by its probability. So

[tex]V = 0.01*(1-4.61)^2 + 0.02*(2-4.61)^2 + 0.12*(3-4.61)^2 + 0.25*(4-4.61)^2 + 0.42*(5-4.61)^2 + 0.16*(6-4.61)^2 + 0.02*(7-4.61)^2 = 1.1579[/tex]

d. Find the third quartile of this distribution.

100*(3/4) = 75th percentile

The cdf passes 0.75 when X = 5, so 5 is the third quartile of this distribution.

A local anime fan club surveyed its members regarding their viewing habits last weekend, and the following information was obtained: 35 members had watched an episode of Naruto, 48 had watched an episode of Death Note, 24 had watched both an episode of Naruto and an episode of Death Note, and 12 had watched neither Naruto nor Death Note. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
(a) What percent of the club members had watched Naruto or Death Note?
(b) What percent of the club members had watched only Naruto?
(c) What percent of the club members had watched only Death Note?

Answers

Answer:

a) 83.099% of the club members had watched Naruto or Death Note.

b) 15.493% of the club members had watched only Naruto

c) 33.803% of the club members had watched only Death Note.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the number of students which each habit, treating the habits as Venn sets.

I am going to say that:

Set A: Watched an episode of Naruto.

Set B: Watched an episode of Death Note.

24 had watched both an episode of Naruto and an episode of Death Note:

This means that [tex](A \cap B) = 24[/tex]

48 had watched an episode of Death Note

This means that [tex]B = 48[/tex].

We have that:

[tex]B = (B-A) + (A \cap B)[/tex]

In which B - A are those who watched only Death Note. So

[tex]48 = (B-A) + 24[/tex]

[tex](B-A) = 24[/tex]

35 members had watched an episode of Naruto

This means that [tex]A = 35[/tex].

[tex]A = (A-B) + (A \cap B)[/tex]

[tex]35 = (A-B) + 24[/tex]

[tex](A-B) = 11[/tex]

At least one:

This is

[tex](A \cup B) = A + B - (A \cap B)[/tex]

So

[tex](A \cup B) = 35 + 48 - 24[/tex]

[tex](A \cup B) = 59[/tex]

Total number of students:

59 at least one, 12 none, so 71 total.

(a) What percent of the club members had watched Naruto or Death Note?

At least one, so 59 out of 71

59*100/71 = 83.099

83.099% of the club members had watched Naruto or Death Note.

(b) What percent of the club members had watched only Naruto?

11 out of 71. So

11*100/71 = 15.493

15.493% of the club members had watched only Naruto.

(c) What percent of the club members had watched only Death Note?

24 out of 71. So

24*100/71 = 33.803

33.803% of the club members had watched only Death Note.

i think it is (b) What percent of the club members had watched only Naruto?

The dj charges $35 for 1/2 hour. If the school hires him for a dance that lasts 3 1/2 hours, how much will the dj earn

Answers

Answer:

$245

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: $245

Step-by-step explanation:

$35 / 1/2=x / 3 1/2

Divide 35 by 1/2 by multiplying 35 by the reciprocal of 1/2.

35*2=x / 3*2+1/2

Multiply 35 and 2 to get 70.

70=x / 3*2+1/2

Divide x by 3*2+1/2 by multiplying x by the reciprocal of 3*2+1/2.

70=x*2/3*2+1

Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.

70=x*2/6+1

Add 6 and 1 to get 7.

70=x*2/7

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left-hand side.

x*2/7=70

Multiply both sides by 7.

x*2=70*7

Multiply 70 and 7 to get 490.

x*2=490

Divide both sides by 2.

x=490/2

Divide 490 by 2 to get 245.

x=245
