In a study by Peter D. Hart Research Associates for the Nasdaq Stock Market, it was determined that 20% of all stock investors are retired people. In addition, 40% of all U. S. adults invest in mutual funds. Suppose a random sample of 25 stock investors is taken.

a. What is the probability that exactly seven are retired people?
b. What is the probability that 10 or more are retired people?
c. How many retired people would you expect to find in a random sample of 25 stock investors?
d. Suppose a random sample of 20 U. S. adults is taken. What is the probability that exactly seven adults invested in mutual funds?
e. Suppose a random sample of 20 U. S. adults is taken. What is the probability that fewer than five adults invested in mutual funds?
f. Suppose a random sample of 20 U. S. adults is taken. What is the probability that exactly two adults invested in mutual funds?
g. Suppose a random sample of 20 U. S. adults is taken. What is the probability that 12 or more adults invested in mutual funds?
h. For parts e–g, what exact number of adults would produce the highest probability? How does this compare to the expected number?

Answer: question no. 1 -a. yes, the sides are in the ratio 2 : 5.question no. 2 -b. 59°question no. 3 -c. angles x and y are remote interior angles.question no. 4 -d. 90°, 45° and 45°question no. 5 -b. mn and qrstep-by-step explanation: question no. 1 -rs : xu = 3 : 7.5 = 2 : 5rt : x? = 6.4 : 16 = 2 : 5st : u? = 6 : 15 = 2 : 5as the ratios of all sides are equivalent, the triangles must be congruent and the sides must be proportional.therefore, the answer is: a. yes, the sides are in the ratio 2 : 5.question no. 2 -in the second diagram, angle b is the only letter not shown. therefore, the number must be equivalent to angle b.if we substitute the value of angle b as being 22° in the first diagram, we can now use the angle sum of a triangle to obtain the value of angle a.angle sum of a triangle = 180°therefore: let angle a = aa + 99 + 22 = 180a = 180 - 99 - 22a = 59°therefore, the answer is: b. 59°question no. 3 -angles x and y don't share the vertex of the triangle with the exterior angle w. remote interior angles don't share a vertex of a triangle with an exterior angle. this means that angles x and y are remote interior angles.therefore, the answer is: c. angles x and y are remote interior angles.question no. 4 -the sum of all interior angles of a triangle must be equivalent to 180°.90°, 45° and 45° are the only set of angle measures that are equivalent to 180°.therefore, the answer is: d. 90°, 45° and 45°question no. 5 -the only pair of sides stated in the options which are corresponding are mn and qr.therefore, the answer is: b. mn and qr.
