the center for medicare services reported that there were 295,000 reported appeals for hospitalization and other medicare part a services. for this group, 40% of the first round appeals were successful. suppose ten first round appeals were just received. the results follow a binomial distribution. what is the probability exactly two of the appeals was successful? enter answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

The probability exactly two of the appeals were successful is 0.9536

We are given that 40% of first-round appeals were successful (The Wall Street Journal, October 22, 2012), and suppose ten first-round appeals have just been received by a Medicare appeals office.

This situation can be represented through Binomial distribution as;

[tex]P(X=r)={}^{n}C_{r}(p)^r(1-p)^r[/tex] where [tex]x=0,1,2,3.....[/tex]

where,  n = number of trials (samples) taken = 10

            r = number of success

            p = probability of success which in our question is % of first-round

                  appeals that were successful, i.e.; 40%

So, here X ~ Binom(n=10 , p=0.40

Probability that at least two of the appeals will be successful = P(X>=2)

   P(X >= 2) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

                    = 1 - [tex]^{10}C_{0}(0.40)^0(1-0.40)^{10-0}-^{10}C_{1}(0.40)^1(1-0.40)^{10-1}[/tex]

                     = 1 - 0.00605 - 0.0403

                     = 0.9536

Hence, the probability exactly two of the appeals were successful is 0.9536

Solve the equation: 4 - 2y + 3 = - 9. What is y equal to?

Answers

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given equation  4 - 2y + 3 = - 9, y is equal to 8.

The equation is a statement in which the values of two mathematical expressions are equal (indicated by the sign =).

To find the value of y from the given equation

∴  4 - 2y + 3 = - 9

=> 4+3 -2y = -9

=> 7 - 2y = -9

=> 7 + 9 = 2y

=> 16 = 2y

=> 16/2 = y

=> 8 = y

=> y = 8

So, the value of y in the above equation 4 - 2y + 3 = -9 is 8.

a professor at a local university noted that the exam grades of her students were normally distributed with a mean of 73 and a standard deviation of 11. the professor has informed us that 8.75 percent of her students received grades of a. what is the minimum score needed to receive a grade of a?

Answers

The minimum score needed to receive a grade of 'a' is 87.92

Given that,

At a nearby university, a professor noticed that her students' exam results were regularly distributed, with a mean of 73 and a standard deviation of 11. 8.75 percent of the professor's students achieved grades of A, she told us.

Mean = μ = 73

Standard deviation = σ =  11

Using the standard normal table,

⇒ P(Z > z) = 8.75%

⇒ 1 - P(Z < z) = 8.75%

= 1 - P(Z < z) = 0.0875

= P(Z < -1.36) =1- 0.0875

= P(Z < 1.3563) =0.9125

∴ Z = 1.3563                              ( Using standard normal z-table )

Using z-score formula ;

x= z * σ + μ

x=1.3563 * 11 + 73

x=87.92

So, the minimum score needed to receive a grade of 'a' is 87.92

Answers

The statement about That by increasing the sample size, the amount of sampling error will be decreased is true.

Given that,

That by increasing the sample size, the amount of sampling error will be decreased

Sampling error is inversely related to sample size. Therefore, if we expand the size of our sample, the likelihood of sampling error is reduced and the results are more trustworthy. The standard error is the term used to describe the sampling error that is most frequently utilized (SE). A measurement of the range of estimations around the "actual value" is the standard error. You get a lower return by increasing the sample size beyond what you already have because the added accuracy won't make much of a difference.

a certain car travels at a constant speed of 40 miles per hour. how far does the car travel in 45 minutes

Answers

The car travels 30 miles in 45 minutes with the speed 40 miles/hour with the constant speed.

What is speed?

Velocity is the rate and direction of an object's movement, whereas speed is the time rate at which an object is moving along a path. In other words, velocity is a vector, whereas speed is a scalar value. The distance traveled by a moving object in a specific amount of time is its speed. How quickly something is moving is determined by its speed. The distance traveled by an object in a given amount of time divided by the time gives the object's average speed.

Here,

45 minutes/60 minutes= .75 hours (this gives you the amount of time in hours)

time x speed = distance

.75 hours time x 40 mph speed = 30 miles distance

With a constant speed of 40 miles per hour, the car covers 30 miles in 45 minutes.

a mixture of 3% disinfectant solution is to be made from 5% and 2% disinfectant solutions. how much of each solution should be used if 21 gallons of 3% solution are needed?

Answers

To make 21 gallons of 3% disinfectant solution, 7 gallons of 5% solution are used, and 14 gallons of 2% solution are used.

21 gallons of the 3% solution is required.

Therefore, the amount of disinfectant in the solution

= 3/100  X  21 gallons

= 0.63 gallons

Let the amount of 5% disinfectant solution used be x

Therefore,

the amount of 2% disinfectant solution used is (21 - x)

Now, the amount of disinfectant added through these solutions must be equal to the amount of disinfectant in the solution.

Hence,

5/100 X x  +  2/100 X (21 - x) =  0.63

or, 5x/100 + (42 - 2x) / 100 = 0.63

or, 0.05x + 0.42 - 0.02x = 0.63

or, 0.03x = 0.63 - 0.42

or, 0.03x = 0.21

or, x = 0.21 / 0.03

or, x = 7

Therefore 21 - x = 14

Hence 7 gallons of 5% solution is used and 14 gallons of 2% solution is used.

Part of the graph of a quadratic function is graphed below. Between which two integers will the graph again cross the x-axis?​

Answers

From the coefficients of the quadratic equation and the vertex of the parabola, it was found that the graph again crosses the x-axis  in x=7.

Quadratic Function

The standard form for a quadratic equation is ax²+ bx + c=0, where: a, b and c are your respective coefficients. In the quadratic function, the coefficient "a" must be different than zero (a≠0) and the degree of the function must be equal to 2.

For solving the quadratic function, you should find the discriminant: Δ=b²-4ac and then use this variable in the formula: [tex]\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}[/tex] .

The given equation is a quadratic function because have a degree equal to 2. Therefore, the graph is represented by a parabola. The vertex of the parabola is given by the coordinates(xv= -b/2a, yv= -Δ/4a).

From the given figure, it is possible to see that:

the graph crosses the x-axis in x= -1 the graph crosses the y-axis in y=2. xv=3 and yv=7

For x= -1, you have y=0, then:

ax²+bx+c=0 -> x=-1

a (-1)²-b+c=0

a*1-b+c=0

a-b+c=0 (1)

For y= 2, you have x=0, then:

ax²+bx+c=0

a*0²+b*0+c=2

0+0+c=2

c=2 (2)

As, a-b+c=0 (1) and c=2 (2), you have:

a-b+c=0

a-b+2=0

a-b=-2 (3)

Now, you should use the information about the xv.

[tex]x_v=\frac{-b}{2a} =3[/tex]

-b=6a

b=-6a

From equation 3, you will find the coefficient a .

a-b=-2 (3)

a-(-6a)= -2

a +6a =-2

7a= -2

a=-2/7

If a= -2/7, from equation 3 you can find the coefficient b.

b=-6a = -6* (-2/7)=12/7

Thus, the quadratic equation of the plot is: ax²+bx+c

[tex]f(x)=-\frac{2}{7}\cdot \:x^2+\frac{12}{7}\cdot \:x+2[/tex]

Now, you should find the roots for the found equation :[tex]f(x)=-\frac{2}{7}\cdot \:x^2+\frac{12}{7}\cdot \:x+2[/tex].

[tex]x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-12\pm \sqrt{12^2-4\left(-2\right)\cdot \:14}}{2\left(-2\right)}[/tex]

[tex]x_1=\frac{-12+16}{2\left(-2\right)}=-1,\:x_2=\frac{-12-16}{2\left(-2\right)}=7[/tex]

Write an equation for the line parallel to the given line that contains the given point.


Line: 8y=6x+5 Point: (-8,-10)

Please answer quick!!

Answers

The linear equation parallel to 8y=6x+5  is:

y = (3/4)*x - 4

How to find the equation of the parallel line?

Remember that two linear equations are parallel if and only if both lines have the same slope and different y-intercept.

Here we want to find a line parallel to:

8y = 6x + 5

Rewriting this in slope-intercept form we get:

y = (6x + 5)/8

y = (3/4)*x + 5/8

Then a parallel line to this one will be:

y = (3/4)*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the fact that this line must pass through the point (-8, -10).

-10 = (3/4)*(-8) + b

-10 = -6 + b

-10 + 6 = b

-4 = b
