Answer:

Range

Step-by-step explanation:

Range is found by subtracting the highest and lowest point in the dataset

Mode is the number that occurs most frequently in the set

Median is the central number in the dataset when arranged from lowest to highest

Mean is the sum of all the numbers in the dataset divided by how many numbers there are.

For example, take this list of numbers: 10, 10, 20, 40, 70.

The mean (also known as average) is found by: 10 + 10 + 20 + 40 + 70 / 5 = 30.

The median is found by ordering the set from lowest to highest and finding the exact middle. The median is just the middle number: 20.

1. A report from the Secretary of Health and Human Services stated that 70% of single-vehicle traffic fatalities that occur at n

Nuetrik [128]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.7215 = 72.15% probability that between 10 and 15, inclusive, accidents involved drivers who were intoxicated.

For each fatality, there are only two possible outcomes, either it involved an intoxicated driver, or it did not. The probability of a fatality involving an intoxicated driver is independent of any other fatality, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.
n is the number of trials.
p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

70% of fatalities involve an intoxicated driver, hence $p = 0.7$ .

A sample of 15 fatalities is taken, hence $n = 15$ .

The probability is:

$P(10 \leq X \leq 15) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15)$

Hence

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 10) = C_{15,10}.(0.7)^{10}.(0.3)^{5} = 0.2061$

$P(X = 11) = C_{15,11}.(0.7)^{11}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.2186$

$P(X = 12) = C_{15,12}.(0.7)^{12}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.1700$

$P(X = 13) = C_{15,13}.(0.7)^{13}.(0.3)^{2} = 0.0916$

$P(X = 14) = C_{15,14}.(0.7)^{14}.(0.3)^{1} = 0.0305$

$P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.7)^{15}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.0047$

Then:

$P(10 \leq X \leq 15) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) = 0.2061 + 0.2186 + 0.1700 + 0.0916 + 0.0305 + 0.0047 = 0.7215$

0.7215 = 72.15% probability that between 10 and 15, inclusive, accidents involved drivers who were intoxicated.

Answer:

The points on a line can be assigned real number coordinates (think of numbers on a number line). The distance between any two points is their difference.

Solve the equation below for x.<br> сх — 4 = 7

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

x = 11/c

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation for x, we simply need to apply equation operations and isolate the x variable.

cx - 4 = 7

cx - 4 + 4 = 7 + 4

cx = 7 + 4

cx = 11

cx * (1/c) = 11 * (1/c)

x = 11 * (1/c)

x = 11/c

Cheers.
