A club is choosing 2 members to serve on a committee. The club has
nominated 3 women and 3 men. Based on chance alone, what is the
probability no women are chosen to be on the committee?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The probability that no women are chosen to be in the committee is 2/5 or 0.40.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two positions, and we have 6 options for those positions, 3 are men, and 3 are women.

If we want to see the probability where no women are chosen, then this means that in the first selection a man is chosen.

If all the 6 nominees have the same probability of being chosen, then the probability that in the first selection a man is chosen is equal to the number of men divided the total number of nominees, this is:

p1 = 3/6 = 1/2.

Now the same happens for the second selection, but now we have 5 total nominees and 2 are men, so the probability now is:

p2 = 2/5

And the joint probability will be the product of the individual probabilities, then we have:

P = p1*p2 = (1/2)*(2/5)  = 2/5.

The probability that no women are chosen to be in the committee is 2/5 or 0.40.

Answer 2

The probability that no woman is chosen to be on the committee is 0.40.

Given

A club is choosing 2 members to serve on a committee.

The club has nominated 3 women and 3 men.

The number of ways to select two persons from 6 will be:

[tex]\rm = ^6C_2[/tex]

Therefore,

The probability that no woman is chosen to be on the committee is;

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{2}{5}\\\\= \dfrac{1}{5}\\\\=0.40[/tex]

Hence, the probability that no woman is chosen to be on the committee is 0.40.

Peter leaves Mitchell's house traveling 30 mph. Mitchell leaves 15 min later, trying to catch up to peter, going 40 mph. if they drive along the same route, how long will it take Mitchell to catch Peter?

Answers

Answer:

  45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

At 30 mph for 1/4 hour, Peter has a 7.5 mile head start. After he leaves, Mitchell closes that gap at the rate of 40-30 = 10 miles per hour. It will take him ...

  t = d/s

  t = (7.5 mi)/(10 mi/h) = 0.75 h

to catch Peter.

Mitchell will catch Peter in 45 minutes.

__

Alternate Solution

Another way to look at it is that Mitchell's 10 mph advantage is 1/3 of Peter's speed, so it will take 1/(1/3) = 3 times the period of Peter's head start:

  3 × 15 minutes = 45 minutes . . . for Mitchell to catch Peter

_____

You can write equations involving time and distance and see where the distances traveled become the same. You need to be careful choosing the time reference, since you're concerned with Mitchell's travel time. I personally prefer to work "head start" problems by considering the differences in time and speed, as above. This is where you end up using the equations approach, anyway.

Answers

Answer:

Time = approximately mid 2012Oil import rate = 3600 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

Unclear part of the questionI(t) = −35t² + 800t − 1,000 thousand barrels per day (9 ≤ t ≤ 13) According to the model, approximately when were oil imports to the country greatest?  t =  ? Solution

Given the quadratic function  

The vertex of a quadratic function is found by a formula: x = -b/2a

As per given function:

b = 800, a = -35

Then

t = - 800/2*(-35) = 11.43 which is within given range of 9 ≤ t ≤ 13

This time is approximately mid 2012.

Considering this in the function, to get oil import rate for the same time:

l(11.43) = -35*(11.43)² + 800*11.43 - 1000 = 3571.4285

Rounded to two significant figures, the greatest oil import rate was:

The total distance should be: 37.15 miles

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 148 t + 227. Assuming that the rocket will splash down into the ocean, at what time does splashdown occur? The rocket splashes down after 32 seconds. How high above sea-level does the rocket get at its peak? The rocket peaks at meters above sea-level.

Answers

Answer:

A.) 24.08 seconds

B.) 825.42 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

function of time is given as

h ( t ) = − 4.9 t 2 + 118 t + 115 .

Where a = -4.9, b = 118, c = 115

Let's assume that the trajectory of the rocket is a perfect parabola.

The time t the rocket will reach its maximum height will be at the symmetry of the parabola.

t = -b/2a

Substitute b and a into the formula

t = -118/-2(4.9)

t = 118/9.8

t = 12.041 seconds

Since NASA launches the rocket at t = 0 seconds, the time it will splash down into the ocean will be 2t.

2t = 2 × 12.041 = 24.08 seconds

Therefore, the rocket splashes down after 24.08 seconds.

B.) At maximum height, time t = 12.041s

Substitute t for 12.041 in the function

h ( t ) = − 4.9 t 2 + 118 t + 115

h(t) = -4.9(12.041)^2 + 118(12.041) + 115

h(t) = -4.9(144.98) + 118(12.041) + 115

h(t) = -710.402 + 1420.82 + 115

h(t) = 825.42 metres

Therefore, the rocket get to the peak at 825.42 metres

Find the first partial derivatives of the function f(x,y,z)=4xsin(y−z)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f_x(x,y,z)=4\sin (y-z)[/tex]

[tex]f_x(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)[/tex]

[tex]f_z(x,y,z)=-4x\cos (y-z)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]f(x,y,z)=4x\sin (y-z)[/tex]

We need to find first partial derivatives of the function.

Differentiate partially w.r.t. x and y, z are constants.

[tex]f_x(x,y,z)=4(1)\sin (y-z)[/tex]

[tex]f_x(x,y,z)=4\sin (y-z)[/tex]

Differentiate partially w.r.t. y and x, z are constants.

[tex]f_y(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)\dfrac{\partial}{\partial y}(y-z)[/tex]

[tex]f_y(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)[/tex]

Differentiate partially w.r.t. z and x, y are constants.

[tex]f_z(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)\dfrac{\partial}{\partial z}(y-z)[/tex]

[tex]f_z(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)(-1)[/tex]

[tex]f_z(x,y,z)=-4x\cos (y-z)[/tex]

Therefore, the first partial derivatives of the function are [tex]f_x(x,y,z)=4\sin (y-z), f_x(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)\text{ and }f_z(x,y,z)=-4x\cos (y-z)[/tex].

One of the most spectacular and least known hummingbirds is the Marvelous Spatuletail, Loddigesia mirabilis, found in only in a single remote valley in northern Peru (see photo below). In this valley the mean density is 3 spatuletails per 100-hectare quadrat. (a) What is the probability a random quadrat contains less than 3 spatuletails

Answers

Answer:

P(x < 3) = 0.42319

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

The mean density [tex]\lambda =[/tex] 3

Let x be the random variable that follows a Poisson distribution.

Therefore:

[tex]\mathtt{P(x) = \dfrac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda ^x}{x!}}[/tex]     for x =1, 2, 3...

However, the probability that a random quadrat contains less than 3 spatuletails can be computed as:

[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) = \dfrac{e^{-3}3 ^0}{0!}+ \dfrac{e^{-3}3 ^1}{1!}+ \dfrac{e^{-3} 3 ^2}{2!} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix} \dfrac{3 ^0}{0!}+ \dfrac{3 ^1}{1!}+ \dfrac{3 ^2}{2!} \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{1}+ \dfrac{3 }{1}+ \dfrac{9}{2} \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix} 1+3+ 4.5 \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix}8.5 \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]

P(x < 3) = 0.42319
