Which of the following numbers CANNOT represent the probability of an event?

A. -0.5
B. 1
C. 0
D. 0.675

Answers

Answer 1
Answer : -0.5
Explanation: because it’s a negative number and is less than 0 is it cannot represent a probability of an event.
Answer 2

The number that can not represent the probability of an event is -0.5.

Option A is the correct answer.

What is probability?

It is the chance of an event to occur from a total number of outcomes.

The formula for probability is given as:

Probability = Number of required events / Total number of outcomes.

Example:

The probability of getting a head in tossing a coin.

P(H) = 1/2

We have,

The probability of an event always lies between 0 and 1 (inclusive), where 0 represents an impossible event and 1 represents a certain event.

Therefore, any number outside this range cannot represent the probability of an event.

Probabilities are always non-negative values between 0 and 1 (inclusive). The value 0 represents an impossible event, meaning that the event cannot occur.

The value 1 represents a certain event, meaning that the event will definitely occur. Any value between 0 and 1 represents the likelihood that the event will occur, where a value closer to 0 represents a low probability and a value closer to 1 represents a high probability.

Negative numbers cannot represent probabilities since probabilities are always non-negative values between 0 and 1.

Thus,

The number that can not represent the probability of an event is -0.5.

C. The maximum value of f is –7 when x = –2.
D. As x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches infinity.
E. As x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity.

Answers

Answer:

A, D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:  [tex]f(x)=x^2+4x-3[/tex]

Axis of symmetry

[tex]\textsf{Axis of Symmetry formula : }x=-\dfrac{b}{2a}[/tex]

for a quadratic equation in standard form [tex]y=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

[tex]\implies \textsf{Axis of symmetry}: x=-\dfrac{4}{2}=-2[/tex]

Maximum/Minimum point (vertex)

The max/min point is the turning point of the parabola.

The x-value of the turning point is the axis of symmetry.

[tex]\implies \textsf{Turning point}:f(-2)=(-2)^2+4(-2)-3=-7[/tex]

Turning point (vertex) = (-2, -7)

As the leading coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upwards.  Therefore, the turning point  (-2, -7) will be a minimum.

Domain & Range

Domain: input values → All real numbers

Range: output values → [tex]x\geq -7[/tex]  [as (-2, -7) is the minimum point]

End behavior

As the leading degree is positive and the leading coefficient is positive:

[tex]f(x) \rightarrow + \infty, \textsf{ as } x \rightarrow - \infty[/tex]

[tex]f(x) \rightarrow + \infty, \textsf{ as } x \rightarrow + \infty[/tex]

The volume, v, of a cylinder is equal to this area base, b, times it’s height h. if the diameter of the cylinder is 18 feet and it’s height is 2.9 feet, which expression represents v in cubic meters?

Answers

The volume of the cylinder in cubic meters is 20.886 m^3

How to get the volume?

We know that the volume is the area of the base times the height.

In this case, the diameter of the base is 18 ft, so the radius (half of that) is:

R = 18ft/2 = 9ft

Then the area of the base is:

B = 3.14*(9ft)^2 = 254.34 ft^2

And the height is 2.9 ft, then the volume is:

V = (2.9 ft)*254.34 ft^2 = 737.586 ft^3

Now, we know that:

1ft = 0.3048 m

if we cube both of these

1 ft^3 = (0.3048 m)^3 = 0.0283 m^3

Now we can change the unis of our volume:

V = 737.586 ft^3 = 737.586*0.0283 m^3 = 20.886 m^3

exceeds 70 in.

What is the probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in. ?

Use your standard normal table.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0125 = 1.25% probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are, respectively, given by [tex]\mu = 63.5, \sigma = 2.9[/tex].

The probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 70, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{70 - 63.5}{2.9}[/tex]

Z = 2.24

Z = 2.24 has a p-value of 0.9875.

1 - 0.9875 = 0.0125.

0.0125 = 1.25% probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in.
