In how many ways can 8 people be seated around a circular table if 2 people aren't aloud to sit next to each other?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 8 people to be seated around a circular table.

As per formula:

Number of ways that they n people can sit around a circular table = [tex](n-1)![/tex]

We know that 2 people of out of these 8 are not allowed to sit together.

If we subtract the number of ways of these 2 people sitting together from the total number of ways of sitting of 8 people, we will get the number of ways that these 2 people do not sit together.

Number of ways of 2 people not sitting together = Total number of ways of 8 people sitting - Number of ways these 2 people sitting together.

Using formula:

Total number of ways = [tex](8-1 )! = 7! = 5040[/tex]

Let these two people always sit together, so these 2 can be thought as one pair.

So, 6 people and 1 pair,

Total number of ways the 2 people sitting together = [tex](7-1)! \times 2 = 6! \times 2 = 720 \times 2 =1440[/tex]

Total number of ways that the two do not sit together =

[tex]5040 - 1440\\\Rightarrow 3600[/tex]

The valve was tested on 270 engines and the mean pressure was 6.6 lbs/square inch. Assume the variance is known to be 0.49. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 6.5 lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the valve does not perform to the specifications

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{6.6-6.5}{\frac{0.7}{\sqrt{270}}}=2.347[/tex]      

The p value for this case would be given by"

[tex]p_v =2*P(z>2.347)=0.0189[/tex]  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean is significantly different from 6.5 lbs/square inch at 10% of significance. So then there is not enough evidence to conclude that the valve does not perform to the specifications

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X=6.6[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]s=\sqrt{0.49}= 0.7[/tex] represent the population deviation

[tex]n=270[/tex] sample size      

[tex]\mu_o =6.5[/tex] represent the value that we want to test    

[tex]\alpha=0.1[/tex] represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value for the test

Hypothesis to verify

We want to verify if the true mean for this case is equal to 6.5 lbs/square inch or not , the system of hypothesis would be:      

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu= 6.5[/tex]      

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 6.5[/tex]      

The statistic for this case is given by:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)      

And replacing we got:

[tex]z=\frac{6.6-6.5}{\frac{0.7}{\sqrt{270}}}=2.347[/tex]      

The p value for this case would be given by"

[tex]p_v =2*P(z>2.347)=0.0189[/tex]  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean is significantly different from 6.5 lbs/square inch at 10% of significance. So then there is not enough evidence to conclude that the valve does not perform to the specifications

A political candidate has asked you to conduct a poll to determine what percentage of people support her. If the candidate only wants a 5% margin of error at a 99% confidence level, what size of sample is needed

Answers

Answer:

A sample size of 664 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

If the candidate only wants a 5% margin of error at a 99% confidence level, what size of sample is needed

A sample size of n is needed.

n is found when M = 0.05.

We have no estimate, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.05[/tex]. Then

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 2.575*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575*0.5}{0.05}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.575*0.5}{0.05})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 663.1[/tex]

(sec α - tan α)(sec α + tan α) = sec^2 α - tan^2α

But sec^2  α = 1 + tan^2 α so

sec^2 α - tan^2α  = 1 + tan^2 α - tan^2α

= 1

so 1 =  (sec α - tan α)(sec α + tan α) = 1/4 * x     where x  is sec α + tan α

many miles must it fly to return to its starting point by the shortest
route? (Enter your answer without units.)

Answers

Answer: The distance of the shortest route of return is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction of travel of the plane forms a right angle triangle ABC as shown in the attached photo. C represents the starting point of the plane. To determine the distance of the shortest by which the plane can return to its starting point, BC, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

BC² = 320² + 240²

BC² = 160000

BC = √160000

BC = 400

de que obtengas exactamente 2 soles?

Answers

Answer:

The probability of getting exactly 2 soles is 0.375.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

If you toss a fair coin 4 times, what's the probability that you get exactly 2 soles?

Solution:

A fair coin has two parts.

On tossing a coin once there is 50-50 odds of both the sides.

So, the probability of one side is, p = 0.50.

It is provided that a fair coin is tossed n = 4 times.

The event of any of the sides showing up after the toss are independent of each other.

The random variable X defined as soles, follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 4 and p = 0.50.

The probability mass function of X is:

[tex]P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.50)^{x}\ (1-0.50)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3,4[/tex]

Compute the probability of getting exactly 2 soles as follows:

[tex]P(X=2)={4\choose 2}\ (0.50)^{2}\ (1-0.50)^{4-2}[/tex]

                [tex]=6\times 0.25\times 0.25\\\\=0.375[/tex]

Thus, the probability of getting exactly 2 soles is 0.375.

the equation of straight line passing through the point (2,3)&perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=10 is​

Answers

Answer:

4y = -3x +18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's get the gradient from this line equation first.

4x-3y=10

4x-10=3y

Y= 4/3x -10/3

The gradient is 4/3.

For a line perpendicular to another line.

M*M'= -1

M= -/(4/3)

M = -3/4

So the gradient to be used is -3/4

Formula for solving is

(Y-y1)/(x-x1)= M

X1= 2

Y1= 3

M = -3/4

(Y-y1)/(x-x1)= M

(Y-3)/(x-2)= -3/4

4(y-3)= -3(x-2)

4y -12 = -3x +6

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation 6x-3y=18

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Saying "put an equation into slope-intercept form" is another way of saying, "solve this equation for y". Not 6y or -3y...just plain old ordinary positive y. In order to begin that process, we need to first isolate the term that has the y in it. We do that by subtracting 6x from both sides to get

-3y = -6x + 18

Now, again, we are not solving for -3y, just y. We do that by dividing both sides by -3 to get

[tex]y=\frac{-6x}{-3}+\frac{18}{-3}[/tex]

Simplifying that gives us

y = 2x - 6

Question:

You are interested in estimating the the mean age of the citizens living in your community. In order to do this, you plan on constructing a confidence interval; however, you are not sure how many citizens should be included in the sample. If you want your sample estimate to be within 5 years of the actual mean with a confidence level of 97% , how many citizens should be included in your sample? Assume that the standard deviation of the ages of all the citizens in this community is 18 years.

Answer:

61.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Standard deviation = 18

Sample estimate = 5

Confidence level = 97%

Required:

Find sample size, n.

First find the Z value. Using zscore table

Z-value at a confidence level of 97% = 2.17

To find the sample size, use the formula below:

[tex] n = (Z * \frac{\sigma}{E})^2[/tex]

[tex] n = ( 2.17 * \frac{18}{5})^2 [/tex]

[tex] n = (2.17 * 3.6)^2 [/tex]

Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 95.9 and a standard deviation of 16.4. Find the following probabilities. Round your answers to three decimal places; add trailing zeros as needed. The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 122.6 is 0.052 . The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ lower than 92.0 is 0.413 . The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 80.0 and 110.0 is 0.639 .

Answers

Answer:

a) The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 122.6 is 0.052.

b) The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ lower than 92.0 is 0.405.

c) The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 80.0 and 110.0 is 0.639.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem with

Mean = μ = 95.9

Standard deviation = σ = 16.4

a) The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 122.6

= P(x > 122.6)

We first normalize or standardize 122.6

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (122.6 - 95.9)/16.4 = 1.63

To determine the required probability

P(x > 122.6) = P(z > 1.63)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

P(x > 122.6) = P(z > 1.63) = 1 - P(z ≤ 1.63)

= 1 - 0.94845

= 0.05155 = 0.052 to 3 d.p

b) The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ lower than 92.0 = P(x < 92)

We first normalize or standardize 92.0

z = (x - μ)/σ = (92 - 95.9)/16.4 = - 0.24

To determine the required probability

P(x < 92.0) = P(z < -0.24)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

P(x < 92.0) = P(z < -0.24) = 0.40517 = 0.405 to 3 d.p

c) The probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 80.0 and 110.0.

P(80 ≤ x ≤ 110)

We first normalize or standardize 80.0 and 110.0

For 80.0

z = (x - μ)/σ = (80 - 95.9)/16.4 = - 0.97

For 110.0

z = (x - μ)/σ = (110 - 95.9)/16.4 = 0.86

The required probability

P(80 ≤ x ≤ 110) = P(-0.97 ≤ z ≤ 0.86)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

(80 ≤ x ≤ 110) = P(-0.97 ≤ z ≤ 0.86)

= P(z ≤ 0.86) - P(z ≤ -0.97)

= 0.80511 - 0.16602

= 0.63909 = 0.639 to 3 d.p
