In southern California, a growing number of individuals pursuing teaching credentials are choosing paid internships over traditional student teaching programs. A group of eight candidates for three local teaching positions consisted of five who had enrolled in paid internships and three who enrolled in traditional student teaching programs. All eight candidates appear to be equally qualified, so three are randomly selected to fill the open positions. Let Y be the number of internship trained candidates who are hired.
a. Does Y have a binomial or hypergeometric distribution? Why?
b. Find the probability that two or more internship trained candidated are hired.
c. Find the standard deviation and mean of Y.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Hypergeometric

B) P( X ≥ 2) = 0.7143

C) Standard deviation: σ = 0.7087

Mean = 1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Y has Hypergeometric distribution. This is because, the population is not definite and is largely a finite number of people that have one of the two characteristics. Also, a sample of 8 was selected from this population and a random variable of interest that contained the number of people with one of the characteristics.

B) We are told total candidates were 8.

Thus; N = 8

3 were for local teaching positions, thus; n = 3

5 were for paid internship, thus; r = 5

Now, the formula for Hypergeometric distribution is;

P(y) = {(rCy) × [(N-r)C(n-y)]}/(NCn)

Where C represents combination.

Thus, probability that two or more candidates were hired is;

P( X ≥ 2) = P(2) + P(3)

Now, N - r = 8 - 5 = 3

For P(2); n - y = 3 - 2 = 1

For P(3); n - y = 3 - 3 = 0

Thus;

P(2) = {(5C2) × (3C1}/(8C3)

P(2) = 30/56

P(2) = 0.5357

P(3) = {(5C3) × (3C0}/(8C3)

P(3) = 10/56

P(3) = 0.1786

Thus;

P( X ≥ 2) = 0.5357 + 0.1786

P( X ≥ 2) = 0.7143

C) Formula for standard deviation in Hypergeometric distribution is;

σ = √[(nr/N) × ((N - r)/n) × ((N - n)/(N - 1))]

nr/N = (3 × 5/8) = 15/8

((N - r)/N) = (8 - 5)/8 = 3/8

((N - n)/(N - 1)) = (8 - 3)/(8 - 1) = 5/7

σ = √((15/8) × (3/8) × (5/7))

σ =√0.5022

σ = 0.7087

Formula for mean in Hypergeometric distribution is;

E(Y) = nr/N = 3 × 5/8 = 1.875

A water tank holds 648 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 4 gallons per week. A second water tank holds 864 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 7 gallons per week. After how many weeks will the amount of water in the two tanks be the same?


The amount of water in the two tanks will be the same in ________ weeks.

Answers

Answer:

The first tank contains

486 gal - (4 gal/week) t

gal of water after t weeks.

Similarly, the second tank contains

648 gal - (7 gal/week) t

gal of water.

The tanks hold the same amount of water when these two amounts are equal:

486 gal - (4 gal/week) t = 648 gal - (7 gal/week) t

(7 gal/week) t - (4 gal/week) t = 648 gal - 486 gal

(3 gal/week) t = 162 gal

t = (162 gal) / (3 gal/week)

t = 54 weeks

An airplane pilot over the Pacific sights a ship wreck at an angle of depression of 5°. At this time, the horizontal distance from the airplane to the wreck is 4629 meters. What is the height of the plane to the nearest meter?





405 m

Answers

Answer:

The height of the plane is 405 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Trigonometric Ratios

The situation can be represented as shown in the image below. The ground, the height H, and the direct distance to the plane to the shipwreck form a right triangle, where the trigonometric ratios stand.

Since the known distance is adjacent to the angle, and the required height is opposite to the given angle, we use the tangent ratio, defined as:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan\ x=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \tan 5^\circ=\frac{H}{4629}[/tex]

We need to find H, so we solve for H:

[tex]H=4629\cdot\tan5^\circ[/tex]

H=405 m

The height of the plane is 405 meters

Some car jacks are constructed like a collapsed rhombus. When used to raise a​ car, the rhombus is easily seen. If the sides of the rhombus are 15​", what is the maximum length of the​ shaft?

Answers

Complete question is;

Some car jacks are constructed like a collapsed rhombus. When used to raise a car, the rhombus is easily seen. If the sides of the rhombus are 15 inches, what is the maximum length of the shaft?

Answer:

Maximum length of shaft = 30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand this clearly, I've attached a real life image of a car jack that's in the shape of a rhombus.

From the attached image, we can see that it has four sides which are equal in length.

Now, if this jack is collapsed, the shaft will just be like a straight line with a maximum length equal to twice a side of the rhombus which represents the maximum length of the diagonal.

Since we are told that one side of the rhombus is 15 inches, it means that the maximum length of shaft = 2 × 15 = 30 inches

What is decimal in numeral system ?

The decimal numeral system is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system. The way of denoting numbers in the decimal system is often referred to as decimal notation. A formal way to read decimals is to read the whole part as a whole number, then the decimal dot as “and” and then reading the fractional part altogether but using the place value of the last digit with it.

= (7x1)+(4x1/10)+(6x1/1000)

= 7 + 0.4 + 0.006

= 7.406

therefore , the decimal form of the expression is 7.406

Write the equation in slope intercept form: 3x - 4y = 8*

Answers

Answer:

the answer is y=[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation 3x - 4y = 8  written in slope-intercept form as y = (3/4)x - 2.

To write the equation 3x - 4y = 8 in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept,  to isolate y on one side of the equation.

Starting with the given equation:

3x - 4y = 8

First, let's subtract 3x from both sides of the equation to isolate the y term:

-4y = -3x + 8

Next, divide both sides of the equation by -4 to solve for y:

y = (3/4)x - 2

Now the equation in slope-intercept form. The slope is 3/4, and the y-intercept is -2.

When she finally emerged from underground, she got to the sidewalk and looked at the landscape. She was used to flatness and green; the farm that theyd just sold had cattle grazing as far as the eye could see. There was nothing green in sight here as cement behemoths sprung out of the ground taller than the stalks of corn back in Iowa. People zipped in front of her with briefcases tucked to their sides as high heels clacked on the pavement. It was all so overwhelming, so loud, and Hattie put her hands over her ears to shut out the sounds of the taxi horns and the thousand different conversations. Her little sister Evelyn didnt; she was trying to take it all in.Her mother pulled out a map from her purse and held it in shaky hands. According to this, our new home should be right here. Hattie traced her mothers index finger to a building that was so high that she had to crane her neck to see the top.This? Evelyn gasped.Her father, the man who was never at a loss for words, didnt say anything. He adjusted the weight of the three bags that contained most of the possessions theyd been able to bring on the three-hour plane journey that had uprooted them from their old lives and deposited them in New York City.Her father struggled to open the heavy front door, and when they were inside, the smell of hundreds of different meals clashed in her nose: spaghetti, fried chicken, fish, and curry. They stood in front of a bank of elevators as Evelyn pushed the button for the seventeenth floor. When they entered what would be their new home, Hattie spun around in tiny circles as her father gave them the grand tour.Here is where you and Evelyn will sleep, he announced. He pointed to a room that was half the size of the Iowa bedroom that was hers alone, the same Iowa bedroom where shed had all her sleepovers and whose walls still showcased the crayon scribbles from when she was a toddler. Shed tried to scrub them clean, but they were more stubborn than she was, so they would be there for the new family that would be moving in soon.Evelyn tried to sound excited. We get to share a room!Hattie was grateful for her younger sister, for the way that she could always look at the bright side of things. Hattie couldnt say anything in responseshed been speechless for most of the trip. Instead, she followed her father down the hallway that was narrow enough for one person to fit through, maybe two if they squeezed shoulder to shoulder.And here is where your mom and I will be.

But theyd had to sell the farm, and when this opportunity presented itself, there had really been no choice.The tour was over as soon as it startedtiny kitchen, one bathroom, boxy living room. The four of them would be sharing an apartment that was smaller than the drafty old kitchen in the farmhouse.Without a word, they grabbed boxes and started about the business of unpacking in rooms that were inches away from one another rather than feet. Hattie walked over to a dirty square window in her new shared bedroom. She wiped it clean, hoping to see something that would remind her of Iowa, but the window only looked out onto more concrete and glass. A wave of sadness washed over herthe first crack in the numbness that shed been feeling for the past month since she found out about the move. She turned her back and lowered her head so Evelyn wouldnt see her, but then the sobs came, each louder than the previous one.There was a hand on her shoulder. She wanted to put the smile back on because she knew it would be better for Evelyn and everyone else that way, but she couldnt summon it now. She turned around and saw her blurry sister through tear-filled eyes. In front of her face, Evelyn was holding a folded-up picture of the whole family in front of the farmhouse.I miss it too, Evelyn began, but we dont have to forget it.Together, they taped the picture to the corner of the bedroom window so they could see it whenever they wanted.
