Each time a hurricane arrives, a new home has a 0.4 probability of experiencing damage. The occurrences of damage in different hurricanes are mutually independent. a. Calculate the probability that there will be at least two hurricanes from which the home will experience no damage before the second hurricane from which the home will experience damage. b. Calculate the probability that the home will experience its second damage from the fourth hurricane, given that the home has not experienced two damages from the first two hurricanes. c. Calculate the mode of the number of hurricanes it takes for the home to experience damage from three hurricanes.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, we find that:

a) There is a 0.648 = 64.8% probability that there will be at least two hurricanes from which the home will experience no damage before the second hurricane from which the home will experience damage.

b) There is a 0.1728 = 17.28% probability that the home will experience its second damage from the fourth hurricane, given that the home has not experienced two damages from the first two hurricanes.

c) The mode is of 7.5 hurricanes.

For each hurricane, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it causes damage, or it does not. The probability of the home experiencing damage from a hurricane is independent of any other hurricane, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

It gives the probability of exactly x successes on n trials, with p probability.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]  

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The mode of the number of trials needed for q successes is given by:

[tex]M = \frac{q}{p}}[/tex]

In this problem, there is a 0.4 probability of experiencing damage from a hurricane, thus [tex]p = 0.4[/tex].

Item a:

This is the probability of at most 1 damage in 3 hurricanes, which is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

With [tex]n = 3[/tex].

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.4)^{0}.(0.6)^{3} = 0.216[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{3,1}.(0.4)^{1}.(0.6)^{2} = 0.432[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.216 + 0.432 = 0.648[/tex]

0.648 = 64.8% probability that there will be at least two hurricanes from which the home will experience no damage before the second hurricane from which the home will experience damage.

Item b:

1 in the first three, with 0.432 probability.Damage in the fourth, with 0.4 probability.

Then

[tex]0.432(0.4) = 0.1728[/tex]

0.1728 = 17.28% probability that the home will experience its second damage from the fourth hurricane, given that the home has not experienced two damages from the first two hurricanes.

Item c:

Damage from 3 hurricanes, thus q = 3.

Then:

[tex]M = \frac{3}{0.4}} = 7.5[/tex]

The mode is of 7.5 hurricanes.

Rewrite 19/8 as a mixed number.

Answers

Answer: 2 3/8

I got an A

Answer:

2 + 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore we get 19 / 8 = 2 + 3/8 , which is written as 2 3/8 , called a mixed number. To convert 19/8 you do division; 8 into 19 goes 2 times with 3 left over; so 2 3/8.

In the diagram shown, C is the midpoint of BD. What is the
length of AC?
Set up an equation based on the given information, solve
for x, and plug answer back in to answer the question

Answers

Answer:

AC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

C is the midpoint of BD.

That means that BC = CD

BC = x + 4

CD = 3x - 10

x + 4 = 3x - 10                       Subtract x from both sides

4 = 3x - x - 10                       Combine

4 = 2x - 10                            Add 10 to both sides

4 + 10 = 2x - 10 + 10            Combine

14 = 2x                                 Divide by 2

14/2 = 2x/2                          Combine

7 = x

AC = AB + BC

AC = 2x - 5 + x + 4

AC = 3x - 1

AC = 3*7 - 1

AC = 21 - 1

AC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the slope, you can use the formula [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex] to find it!

2. Rise means how many units you go up and down from point to point, and run means how far you go left or right from point to point.

3. Given the statement above, the rise would be 1, and the run would be 4.

4. Now, since slope is (rise)/(run), the slope is 1/4 because one divided by four is equal to one fourth.

The length of each side of a square is
represented by 2x - 1. Represent the
perimeter of the square.

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter = 4(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Perimeter of a square is 4L, it would be,

(2x - 1) + (2x - 1) + (2x - 1) + (2x - 1) which could also be shortened to 4(2x - 1)

Answer:

P = 4(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the side of each square is 2x - 1:

The formula for finding the perimeter of a square is:

P = 4s

where s represents the side of a square.

Substitute the given value for s into the perimeter formula:

s = 2x - 1

P = 4(2x - 1)

Therefore, the perimeter of the square is 4(2x - 1).

Answers

Answer:

Mean- 4.9

Median- 4

Mode- 3,4,8

Range- 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a sequence is the average amount. This is equal to all of the terms' sum divided by the number of terms. So, to find the mean add 2+3+3+4+4+7+8+8, which equals 39. Then, divide by 8 because that is the number of terms. Therefore, the mean is 4.9.

The median is the number in the middle of the sequence. To find the median order the sequence from least to greatest and find the middlemost number. In this case, that is 4.

The mode is the number that appears most often. In this sequence, 3, 4, and 8 all appear twice.

The range is the difference between the minimum and maximum. So, subtract 2 from 8 to get 6.

There is a property of the box plot i.e. When the median is in the center of the box, and the whiskers are about the same on both flanks of the box, then the distribution is symmetric. when the median is anywhere to the box except the center, and if the whisker is more concise on the left or right end of the box, then the distribution is skewed.

d.
$628.40

Answers

Adam's balance at the end of June is $627.27

The adjusting balance method is used to determine the interest that would be paid by a credit card owner. The interest that would be paid is determined at the end of a period after all transactions have been adjusted for.

For example, if I have $100 in my credit card. If I buy a shoe worth $50 and deposit $20. My balance at the end of the month would be ($100 + $50 - $20) = $130.

Adam's balance can be determined by adding the amount he spent on purchases to the beginning balance and subtracting the payments he made.

$626.45 + $37.41 + $44.50 - $65.5 +$24.89 - $104.77 +$23.60 + $15 + $51.85 = $605.23

The balance at the end of the month would be the sum of the interest and the amount in his balance

Interest earned = balance x interest rate

Interest rate = 14.63% / 4 = 3.66%

Interest earned = $605.23 x 0.0366 = $22.14

Balance = $22.14 + $605.23 = $627.37
