The exam in a course consists of 25 true/false questions, each worth two points, 35 multiple-choice questions, each worth one point, and 5 fill-in-the-blank questions, each worth three points. The probability that a student answers a true/false question correctly is 0.8, the probability that they answer a multiple-choice question correctly is 0.75, and the probability that they answer a fill-in-the-blank question correctly is 0.65. What is the expected score on the exam? Now consider the case where an incorrect answer on a true/false question results in a penalty of −1 point. 2 What is the resulting expected score?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Expected Score (No Negative Marking) = 135 points

Expected Score (with penalty) = 130 points

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find no. of true false answered correctly:

True/False Correct = (Total No. of True/False)(Probability to correctly answer true/false)

True/False Correct = (25)(0.8)

True/False Correct = 20

Now, for points scored from true/false:

True/False Score = (True/False Correct)(Points for 1 True/False)

True/False Score = (20)(2)

True/False Score = 40 points

Now, we find no. of mcqs answered correctly:

MCQs Correct = (Total No. of MCQs)(Probability to correctly answer MCQs)

MCQs Correct = (35)(0.75)

MCQs Correct = 26.25 = 26

Now, for points scored from MCQs:

MCQ Score = (MCQs Correct)(Points for 1 MCQ)

MCQ Score = (26)(1)

MCQ Score = 26 points

Now, we find no. of fill in the blanks answered correctly:

Fill in the blanks Correct = (Total No. of Fill in the blanks)(Probability to correctly answer Fill in the blanks)

Fill in the blanks Correct = (35)(0.65)

True/False Correct = 22.75 = 23

Now, for points scored from true/false:

Fill in the blanks Score = (Fill in the blanks Correct)(Points for 1 Fill in the blanks)

Fill in the blanks Score = (23)(3)

Fill in the blanks Score = 69 points

So, the expected total score will be:

Expected Score = 40 points + 26 points + 69 points

Expected Score = 135 points

IN CASE OF PENALTY:

We know that:

Incorrect True/Flase = Total True/False - Correct True/False = 25 - 20 = 5

Therefore,

Total Penalty = (Incorrect True/False)(Penalty on one)

Total Penalty = (5)(- 1 points)

Total Penalty = - 5 points

Now, expected score will be;

Expected Score (with penalty) = 135 points - 5 points

Expected Score (with penalty) = 130 points

A number cube is rolled 24 times and lands on the number 2 four times and on the number 6 three times what is the theoretical probability of landing on 6?

Answers

Answer:

A: 4 / 24 (or 1/6) B: (24 - 3) / 24 = 21/24 (or 7/8) C and D: Theoretical probability for each number is 1/6 on each roll, and we expect 4 occurrences of each number, on average. 2 came up as expected. 6 came up 3/4 as often as expected. Or "Not-6" came up 21 instead of 20 times, slightly more often than expected.

Match each part of this algebraic expression with its appropriate description 12.1x - 4.7y + 6x + 1/6

Answers

Answer:Terms, like terms, constant(s),Variable (s),Coefficient(s)

Step-by-step explanation: 18.1x,4.7 and 1/6=Terms

The matched part with the respective appropriate description:

1) x and y → Variable(s)

2) 1/6 →  Constant(s)

3) 12.1, 4.7, and 6 →  Coefficient(s)

4) 12.1x and 6x →  Like Terms

5) 12.1x, 4.7y, and 1/6 →  Terms

What is an expression?

One mathematical expression makes up a term. It might be a single variable (a letter), a single number (positive or negative), or a number of variables multiplied but never added or subtracted. Variables in certain words have a number in front of them. A coefficient is the number used before a phrase.

We have the algebraic expression,

12.1x - 4.7y + 6x + 1/6.

From the definition,

x and y are the two variables.

And 12.1, 6 and -4.7 are the numbers in front of the variables.

So, 12.1, 6 and -4.7 are the coefficients.

And 1/6 is the constant.

So, 1) x and y → Variable(s)

2) 1/6 →  Constant(s)

3) 12.1, 4.7, and 6 →  Coefficient(s)

4) 12.1x and 6x →  Like Terms

5) 12.1x, 4.7y, and 1/6 →  Terms

Therefore, each part of the algebraic expression matched with its appropriate description.

3x square - 6x + 3=0

Answers

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to multiply 3 x 3 (9), because that's all 3 squared means.

Now the equation should be 9x-6x+3=0

Next we need to combine like terms. Do 9x - 6x which should give you 3x

Now your equations should be 3x+3=0

Now for the somewhat harder part...

Under the three (the one without the x) write -3 and under the zero write the same thing.  the +3-3 cancels out so just put a line or something across it.

0-3= -3

so now you should have...

3x=-3    ignore the 3x, at this point it's useless in getting the answer because it would cancel out.

-3 divided by -3  is 1 because a negative (-)  divided by a negative (-) equals a positive (+).

The answer should be  x = 1

How do you determine what bn should be in a limit comparison test and a comparison test? When do you know that the series should use a limit comparison test or a comparison test to find if it is convergent/divergent? Examples would be greatly appreciated

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick a function that is the same "family".  It needs to be a function that you know diverges or converges.  So p-series and geometric series are common choices.  Often we make the numerators the same so that it's easy to compare.

For example, if you have an = 1 / (n − 1), you would choose bn = 1 / n.  Since n − 1 is less than n, we know an is greater than bn.  And since we know bn diverges, that means the larger function an also diverges.

Or, if you have an = 1 / (n + 1), we again choose bn = 1 / n.  However, comparison test is inconclusive here (an < bn, bn diverges), so we use limit comparison test instead.

lim(n→∞) an / bn

lim(n→∞) 1 / (n + 1) / (1 / n)

lim(n→∞) n / (n + 1)

1

The limit is greater than 0, and bn diverges, so an also diverges.

Let's try something more complicated.  Let's say an = e⁻ⁿ / (n + cos²n).  The numerator e⁻ⁿ is always less than 1, and the denominator is always greater than n.

If we again choose p-series bn = 1 / n, we know bn > an, and bn diverges, so comparison test is inconclusive.  Limit comparison test is possible, but tricky.

But, if we choose geometric series bn = e⁻ⁿ / 1, we know bn > an, and bn converges, so by comparison test, an converges as well.

We can try one more: an = (n² + 2) / (n⁴ + 5).  Let's choose bn = (n² + 2) / n⁴ = 1 / n² + 2 / n⁴.

The numerators are the same, but an has a larger denominator, so bn > an.  bn is the sum of two p-series which converge, so bn converges.  Therefore, an converges.

Answer:

In y intercept form, the equation would be: Y= -1/3x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation, you can use any points given. In this case, I used (-6,-4) and (-3,-5).

With these points, you must find the slope. The change in our y values is -1 and the change in our x values is +3.

Now we have Y= -1/3x

To find the y intercept, you look on the graph for where there's a point that is lying on y line. In this case (0,-6) is lying on the y line. This means that the Y intercept for our equation is -6. Another example is (0,8), our y intercept would be 8 because the x value is 0!

In conclusion, our equation in y intercept form would be Y= -1/3x-6

A floor is made up of 20 triangular tiles, each with sides 40 cm, 24 cm and 32 cm. Find the cost of polishing the floor at the rate of 2 rupees per sq.cm.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]15360\,\,rupees[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sides of the triangle be [tex]a,b,c[/tex]

[tex]a=40\,,\,b=24\,,\,c=32[/tex]

Semi-perimeter (s) = [tex]\frac{a+b+c}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{40+24+32}{2}\\ =\frac{96}{2}\\=48[/tex]

Area of one tile [tex]=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{48(48-40)(48-24)(48-32)}\\ =\sqrt{48(8)(24)(16)}\\ =\sqrt{147456} \\=384\,\,cm^2[/tex]

So,

Area of 20 tiles [tex]=20(384)=7680\,\,cm^2[/tex]

Cost of polishing the floor at the rate of 2 rupees per sq.cm = [tex]7680(2)=15360\,\,rupees[/tex]

Mary Jo takes her son to get a haircut at the barbershop. The total cost of the haircut is $12.60, including a 20% tip. How much was the haircut before the tip?

Answers

Based on the total cost of the haircut with the tip included, the cost of the haircut before the tip was $10.50

How to find the cost of the haircut?

The cost of the haircut give of $12.60 is merely the cost of the haircut including the 20% tip.

To find the cost of the haircut before the tip was included, assume that it is x. The relevant expression would then be:

Total cost including tip = x × (1 + tip percentage)

Solving for the haircut cost before the tip gives:

12.60 = x ( 1 + 20%)

12.60 = 1.20x

x = 12.60 / 1.20

x = $10.50
