Answer:
a) 0.70
b) 0.82
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Let M be the event that student get merit scholarship and A be the event that student get athletic scholarship.
P(M)=0.3
P(A)=0.6
P(M∩A)=0.08
P(not getting merit scholarships)=P(M')=?
P(not getting merit scholarships)=1-P(M)
P(not getting merit scholarships)=1-0.3
P(not getting merit scholarships)=0.7
The probability that student not get the merit scholarship is 70%.
b)
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=P(M or A)=P(M∪A)
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=P(M)+P(A)-P(M∩A)
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.3+0.6-0.08
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.9-0.08
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.82
The probability that student gets at least one of two scholarships is 82%.
Range is greater for the 13-14 year olds.
Answer:
Parameter
Step-by-step explanation:
Parameter and statistic:
- Parameter is a numerical value that describes a population.
- A sample is a part of the population and always smaller than the population.
- The statistic is a numerical value that describes a sample.
Population of interest:
College students aged 18 to 22
Parameter:
66.4% reported using alcohol within the past month
Thus, the given is a parameter as it describes a population proportion.
Answer:
h = b - 11.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Sharron(h) has 11.50 less than Rita(b)
h = b - 11.50
