Answer: |3-(-8)|
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Paige lives 3 miles east of her school. Diego lives 8 miles west of the school.
From the picture , the number line represents the position of the houses of the two friends such that position of Paige is 3 but position of Diego is (-8) [since east and west are opposite directions]
We know that, Distance between any two points from A to B= B-A
Since distance is a positive quantity, thus
The distance between them = miles=11 miles
Using the binomial distribution, it is found that the mean and the standard deviation of variable x are given as follows:
It is the probability of exactly <u>x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
E(X) = np
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
In this problem, we have that the parameters are given as follows:
n = 4, p = 0.75.
Hence the mean and the standard deviation are given as follows:
