4. Charles claims that he can distinguish between beer and ale 75 percent of the time. Ruth bets that he cannot and, in fact, just guesses. To settle this, a bet is made: Charles is to be given ten small glasses, each having been filled with beer or ale, chosen by tossing a fair coin. He wins the bet if he gets seven or more correct. Find the probability that Charles wins if he has the ability that he claims. Find the probability that Ruth wins if Charles is guessing.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Probability that Charles gets 7 or more correctly = 0.776

Probability that Ruth wins = 0.827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Probability that Charles distinguishes between beer and ale = 0.75

no of glasses = 10

no required to win the bet = 7 or more.

Solution:

a) probability of success p=0.75.

This is a binomial probability problem, what we need to solve for is the probability that ( X >=7 ) this can be gotten as

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

where k=7,8,9,10

Probability that he gets 7 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

Substitute k = 7 into the equation

= 0.250

Probability that he gets 8 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

substitute k = 8 into the equation

= 0.282

Probability that he gets 9 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

Substitute k = 9 into the equation

= 0.188

Probability that he gets 10 correctly.

P(X>=7) = (10Ck) (0.75)^k (1-0.75)^(10-k)

Substitute the k= 10 into the equation.

= 0.0563

Probability that Charles gets 7 or more correctly

= 0.250 + 0.282 + 0.0563 + 0.188

= 0.776

b) Probability that Ruth wins

K = 1,2,3,4,5,6

p=0.5

P(X < 7)

P(X < 7) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Probability that he gets one correctly

P(X = 1 ) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

substitute k= 1 into the equation.

= 0.0098

P(X=2) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k= 2 into the equation

= 0.0439

P(X =3) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k=3 into the equation.

=0.117

P(X=4) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k= 4 into the equation

= 0.2051

P(X=5) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k =5 into the equation

= 0.246

P(X= 6 ) = (10Ck) (.5)^k (1-.5)^(10-k)

Substitute k = 6 into the equation

= 0.205

Probability that Ruth wins

= 0.205 + 0.246 + 0.2051 + 0.117 + 0.0439 + 0.0098

= 0.827

Answers

Answer:

exponential expression:

8ᵇ = 2

log8(2) = 0.333333333 or 1/3

Answer:

log8(2) = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if they mean this by an exponential expression but:

set x = log8(2), then

8^x = 8^(log8(2))

By logarithmic properties:

8^x = 2.

notice that 8 = 2^3.

By exponential properties:

8^x = (2^3)^x = 2^(3x)

So 2^(3x) = 2 = 2^1.

Comparing exponents gives:

3x = 1 <=> x = 1/3.

So log8(2) = 1/3.

Question 2: √x

Question 5: B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

If you move a factor from the denominator to the numberator (or vice versa) its exponent must flip sign.

I.e., [tex]\frac{1}{x^{-1}}[/tex] will become [tex]\frac{x^1}{1}}[/tex] which is x

Multiplying the same number x you must add the exponents. (1/3)+(1/3)+(1/3) is 1, so D is also x¹.

Therefore B and D are equivalent.

Ashley and her four friends went trick-or-treating. Each one of them got 4/5 of a bag of treats. How many bags of treats did they have in total?

Answers

Answer:

4 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there were five in total, and each got 4/5 evenly, it's just basic adding while subtracting the amount from the other bags.

So to get 5/5, which is a full bag, you take portions out of the others to create a full one. Write out 4/5, five times, and then subtract the needed portions from a separate bag to combine a full one.

find the amount accumulated after investing a principal P for t years at an interest rate compounded k times per year . ​

Answers

Answer:

A = $2,122.20

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P(1 + r/k)^kt

Where,

A = future amount

P = principal = $1,500

r = interest rate = 7%

k = number of periods compounded = 4

t = years = 5 years

A = P(1 + r/k)^kt

= 1,500 (1 + 0.07/4)^4*5

= 1,500 (1 + 0.0175)^20

= 1,500 (1.0175)^20

= 1,500 (1.4148)

= 2,122.20

A = $2,122.20
