Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean of the random variable is 0.

The variance of the random variable is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following probability distribution:

[tex]P(X = -2) = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = -1) = \frac{2}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{2}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{2}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Mean:

Sum of each value multiplied by its probabilities. So

[tex]E(X) = -2\frac{1}{8} -1\frac{2}{8} + 0\frac{2}{8} + 1\frac{2}{8} + 2\frac{1}{8} = \frac{-2 -1 0 + 1 + 2}{8} = \frac{0}{8} = 0[/tex]

The mean of the random variable is 0.

Variance:

Sum of the difference squared between each value and the mean, multiplied by its probabilities. So

[tex]V(X) = \frac{1}{8}(-2-0)^2 +\frac{2}{8}(-1-0)^2 + \frac{2}{8}(0-0)^2 + \frac{2}{8}(1-0)^2 + \frac{1}{8}(2-0)^2 = \frac{4 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 4} = \frac{12}{8} = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

The variance of the random variable is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Find the equation for the line that passes through the points ( 7 , 2 ) and ( 10 , − 6 ) . Give your answer in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y  =  [tex]\frac{-8}{3}[/tex]x + [tex]\frac{62}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use slope formula.

then substitute slope for m in y = mx + b

pick a set of coordinates and substitute them in for x and y.

Solve for b

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{8}{3}x+\frac{62}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] where two given points are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the points (7,2) and (10,-6)

[tex]m=\frac{2-(-6)}{7-10}\\m=\frac{2+6}{7-10}\\m=\frac{8}{-3}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]-\frac{8}{3}[/tex]. Plug this into [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=-\frac{8}{3}x+b[/tex]

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

[tex]y=-\frac{8}{3}x+b[/tex]

Plug in one of the given points and solve for b

[tex]2=-\frac{8}{3}(7)+b\\2=-\frac{56}{3}+b[/tex]

Add [tex]\frac{56}{3}[/tex] to both sides to isolate b

[tex]2+\frac{56}{3}=-\frac{56}{3}+b+\frac{56}{3}\\\frac{62}{3}=b[/tex]

Therefore, the y-intercept is [tex]\frac{62}{3}[/tex]. Plug this back into [tex]y=-\frac{8}{3}x+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=-\frac{8}{3}x+\frac{62}{3}[/tex]

Sixty percent of all children in a school do not have cavities. The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 9 children selected from this school, at least 6 do not have cavities is:

Answers

Answer:

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of student do not have cavities = 60%

Number of random sample = 9 children

Find:

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities]

Computation:

n = 9

p = 60% = 0.6

P(At least 6)  

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 1 - P(Less than 6)  

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 1 - P(Less than or equal to 6)

Probability[Number of 6 random sample do not have cavities] = 0.8

The probability of 9 children selected from this school, at least 6 do not have cavities is 0.80.

What is probability?

Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1. Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.

Sixty percent of all children in a school do not have cavities.

The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 9 children selected from this school, at least 6 do not have cavities will be

n = 9

p = 0.60

Then we have

[tex]\rm P = 1 - P(less \ than \ or \ equal \ 6)\\\\P = 0.8[/tex]

An urn contains three white and four red chips. Each time we draw a chip, we look at its color. If it is red, we replace it along with two new red chips, and if it is white, we replace it along with three new white chips. What is the probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the rst four chips alternate?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the first four chips alternate = 0.0751

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the first four chips alternate, can occur in two ways: RED-WHITE-RED-WHITE (RWRW) or WHITE-RED-WHITE-RED (WRWR).

Step 2:

Given that an urn contains three white and four red chips and that each time we draw a chip, we look at its color. If it is red, we replace it along with two new red chips, and if it is white, we replace it along with three new white chips.

Probability of RWRW is given as follows:

Probabilty of the first being a red = 4/7

Probability of the next being a white = 3/9 = 1/3

Probability of the next being a red = 6/12 = 1/2

Probability of the next being a white = 6/14 = 3/7

Thus, probability of RWRW = 4/7 × 1/3 × 1/2 × 3/7 = 0.0408

Probability of WRWR is given as follows:

Probabilty of the first being a white = 3/7

Probability of the next being a white = 4/10 =2/5

Probability of the next being a red = 6/12 = 1/2

Probability of the next being a white = 6/15 = 2/5

Thus, probability of WRWR = 3/7 × 2/5 × 1/2 × 2/5 = 0.0343

Step 3:

Probability of RWRW or WRWR = 0.0408 + 0.0343 = 0.0751

Therefore, the probability that, in successive drawing of chips, the colors of the first four chips alternate = 0.0751

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the game number, and y is the amount of touchdown passes for that specific game number, then (5,3) represents the idea that the quarter back threw y = 3 touchdown passes for game number x = 5

So the answer is choice D. This is the only ordered pair that comes from the given table. Something like (2,4) isn't true because the quarterback threw 1 touchdown pass (not 4) in game two.

Hank is running sprints on a football field and likes to challenge himself, so instead of running straight down the field, he runs on the diagonal. Of the field is 50 yards wide and 100 yards long, how far does he run on the diagonal? Round your answer to the nearest yard.

Answers

Answer:

112 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying Pythagoras theorem,

Pythagoras theorem states that, in a right angle triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the two other sides.

Mathematically, it is expressed as

a² = b²+c²................. Equation 1

Where a = Length of the diagonal, b and c = lenght of the two other sides

From the question,

Given: b = 50 yards, c = 100  yards.

Substitute these values into equation 1

a² = 50²+100²

a² = 2500+10000

a² = 12500

a = √12500

a = 111.8

a = 112 yards
