The table below summarizes the number of children per household for a sample of 36 high-income families.

1 answer:

4 0

Using the given table, it is found that the mean number of children per household for these families is of 2.33.

The mean of a data-set is given by the <u>sum of all observations in the data-set divided by the number of observations</u>.

Researching the problem on the internet, the table states that:

2 households have 4 children.

16 households have 2 children.

13 households have 3 children.

5 households have 1 children.

The total number of children is given by:

T = 2 x 4 + 16 x 2 + 13 x 3 + 5 x 1 = 84

Hence the mean number of children for the 36 households is given by:

M = 84/36 = 2.33.

There are 3 red marbles, 5 green marbles, and 2 blue marbles in a jar. Event A is defined as drawing a red marble from the jar o

Anastaziya [24]

P(B/A) is $\frac{5}{9}$ in the simplest form

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us explain how to solve the problem

P(B|A) is called the "Conditional Probability" of B given A
Conditional probability is the probability of one event occurring with some relationship to one or more other events that means event A has already happened, now what is the chance of event B
The formula for conditional probability is P(B|A) = P(A and B)/P(A), where P(A and B) is P(A) . P(B given A occurred)

∵ There are 3 red marbles, 5 green marbles, and 2 blue

marbles in the jar

∴ The total number of the marbles in the jar = 3 + 5 + 2 = 10

∵ Two marbles are drawn from the bag, one after the other without

replacement

- That means red is already occurred when green is happened,

so it is a "Conditional Probability" of green given red

P(B/A) = P(A and B)/P(A)

∵ Event A is defined as drawing a red marble from the jar on

the first draw

∴ P(A) = P(red)

∵ P(red) = $\frac{3}{10}$

∴ P(A) = $\frac{3}{10}$

∵ Event B is defined as drawing a green marble on the second draw

∴ P(B) = P(green)

- The number of marbles after the red is chosen is 9

∵ P(green) = $\frac{5}{9}$

∴ P(B) = $\frac{5}{9}$

- Find P( A and B)

∴ P(A and B) = ( $\frac{3}{10}$ ) . ( $\frac{5}{9}$ )

∴ P(A and B) = $\frac{15}{90}$

- Simplify the fraction by divide up and down by 15

∴ P(A and B) = $\frac{1}{6}$

∵ P(B|A) = P(A and B)/P(A)

- Substitute the values of P(A and B) and P(A) in the rule above

∴ P(B/A) = $\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\frac{3}{10}}$

- Simplify the fraction

∵ $\frac{1}{6}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{10}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$ × $\frac{10}{3}$ = $\frac{10}{18}$

- Divide up and down by 2

∴ P(B/A) = $\frac{5}{9}$

P(B/A) is $\frac{5}{9}$ in the simplest form

Please help and explain why, so that I understand.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Hello there!

The number of people in different cities should be represented on a graph as Two-dimensional.

I'll explain why: The number of dimensions you need on a graph is equal to the number of variables that you are studying. In this case, you have two variables in the study:

1)The number of people
2)The city where they live

You'll need a two-dimensional graph with two axes in which one of the axes represents the number of people and the other axis represents the city. If you were also studying the age of those people, you'll need one more dimension to include this new variable.

Have a nice day!

Its only one math question show right steps then get brainliest and right answer ofc

valkas [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

equation.

2(m+10)=4(m−15)

(2)(m)+(2)(10)=(4)(m)+(4)(−15)(Distribute)

2m+20=4m+−60

2m+20=4m−60

Step 2: Subtract 4m from both sides.

2m+20−4m=4m−60−4m

−2m+20=−60

Step 3: Subtract 20 from both sides.

−2m+20−20=−60−20

−2m=−80

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2m−/2=−80/−2

m=40

Help! locus points!

Liula [17]

Answer:

Circle X with radius 2 cm.
Either of two lines parallel to AB.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The definition of a circle is all the points in a plane that are at some radius r from a given point (the circle center). That is what you have, with a radius of 2 cm.

2. Parallel lines are the same distance apart everywhere. Each line will have two parallel lines at some given distance from it, one on each side. Here, the separation distance from AB is 1 cm, so your locus of points is the two lines parallel AB that are 1 cm from it on either side.
