The probability that the cab was really yellow given that it was reported as being yellow is 0.32.
Given that there are 80% black taxis and 20% yellow taxis, witness is 80% accurate.
Probability is the chance of happening an event among all the events possible. It lies between 0 and 1. The value of probability can be calculated through the following formula:
Probability=Number of items/ total items.
Black taxis=80%
Yellow taxs=20%
Eyewitness is accurate=80%
Probability that the cab was really yellow=
P(X=Yellow)P(Witness is correct)+P(X=Black)P(Witness is incorrect)
Probability that car is black=0.8
Probability that car is yellow=0.2
Probability that witness is correct=0.8
Probability that witness is incorrect=1-0.8
=0.2
We have to just put the values in the formula given above.
Required probability=0.2*0.8+0.8*0.2
=0.16+0.16
=0.32
Hence the probability that the cab is really yellow is 0.32.

The standard deviation tells us a. the average value of the scores. b. the relative standing of a particular score. c. the skewness of the distribution. d. the dispersion of the scores.
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard deviation tells us the dispersion of data/scores around the mean.
We can say that the standard deviation tells us the dispersion of the scores, making option D the correct choice.
What is the standard deviation?A standard deviation (or σ) is a measure of how widely distributed the data is about the mean (μ). A low standard deviation suggests that data is grouped around the mean, whereas a large standard deviation shows that data is more spread out. A standard deviation around 0 suggests that data points are close to the mean, whereas a high or low standard deviation indicates that data points are above or below the mean, respectively.
We use the following formula to compute the standard deviation:
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt\frac{{\sum_{i=1}^{N}\left | x_i - \mu \right | }^2}{N}[/tex]
In this formula, σ is the standard deviation, [tex]x_i[/tex] is the data point in the set we are solving for, μ is the mean, and N is the total number of data points.
How to solve the question?In the question, we are asked to tell what standard deviations tell us from the given options.
From the above discussion, we can say that the standard deviation tells us the dispersion of the scores, making option D the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
(the side required )² = sum of squares of other 2 sides - ( 2 × product of other 2 sides and cos(angle opposite side required ) )
x² = 12² + 15² - (2 × 12 × 15 × cos71°)

A random sample of n = 16 scores is obtained from a normal population with m = 40 and s = 8. what is the probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean?
Using the normal distribution, there is a 0.6826 = 68.26% probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean.
Normal Probability DistributionThe 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.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:
[tex]\mu = 40, \sigma = 8, n = 16, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{16}} = 2[/tex]
The probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean is the p-value of Z when X = 40 + 2 = 42 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 40 - 2 = 38, hence:
X = 42:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
Z = (42 - 40)/2
Z = 1
Z = 1 has a p-value of 0.8413.
X = 38:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
Z = (38 - 40)/2
Z = -1
Z = -1 has a p-value of 0.1587.
0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826 = 68.26% probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean.

The 95 percent confidence interval for the mean is (266.76,426.24).
A confidence interval is how much uncertainty there is with any particular statistic. Confidence intervals are often used with a margin of error. It tells you how confident you can be that the results from a poll or survey reflect what you would expect to find if it were possible to survey the entire population. Confidence intervals are intrinsically connected to confidence levels.

Answer:
the following 3 equations are equivalent :
• x + 1 = 4
• 2 + x = 5
• -5 + x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + x = 5
x + 1 = 4
9 + x = 6
x + (- 4) = 7
-5 + x = - 2
Let’s take this equation :
x + 1 = 4

By Adding 1 to both sides of the equation we get :
x + 1 + 1 = 4 + 1
⇔ x + 2 = 5
⇔ 2 + x = 5
Then the equations x + 1 = 4 and 2 + x = 5 are equivalent.

On the other hand ,if we subtract 6 from both sides
of the equation x + 1 = 4 we get :
x + 1 - 6 = 4 - 6
⇔ x - 5 = -2
⇔ -5 + x = -2
Then the equations x + 1 = 4 and -5 + x = -2 are equivalent.

Joel spends 272727 more minutes playing soccer after school on Tuesday than he did on Monday. He still exercises for a total of 606060 minutes after school.
What percent of his time exercising after school did Joel spend playing soccer on Tuesday?
Joel spent 72.5% of his time exercising after playing soccer on Tuesda
How to determine the percentage?The given parameters are
Minutes spent on Tuesday = 27 more minutes than Monday
Total minutes spend = 60
This means that
Tuesday = Monday + 27
Monday + Tuesday = 60
Make Monday the subject in Tuesday = Monday + 27
Monday = Tuesday - 27
Substitute Monday = Tuesday - 27 in Monday + Tuesday = 60
Tuesday - 27 + Tuesday = 60
Evaluate
2 * Tuesday = 87
Divide by 2
Tuesday = 43.5
The percentage of time spent exercising on Tuesday is then calculated as
Percentage = 43.5/60 * 100%
Evaluate the expression
Percentage = 72.5%
Hence, Joel spent 72.5% of his time exercising after playing soccer on Tuesday

The probability that a kid who goes to the doctor has a sore throat given that he has a fever is 30%
How to determine the probability?The given parameters are:
P(Fever) = 70%
P(Fever and sore throat) = 21%
The probability that a kid who goes to the doctor has a sore throat given that he has a fever is calculated as:
P = P(Fever and sore throat)/P(Fever)
So, we have:
P = 21%/70%
Evaluate
P = 30%
Hence, the probability is 30%
