Answer:

D. 1/4 and 9/36

Step-by-step explanation:

If two ratios make a proportion then it can be shown as:

a/b = c/d ⇒ ad = bc

Let's verify the answer choices with this method

A. 1/4 and 5/25

1*25 = 4*5
25 = 20, incorrect, not a proportion

B. 1/4 and 7/24

1*24 = 4*7
24 = 28, incorrect, not a proportion

C. 1/4 and 10/48

1*48 = 4*10
48 = 40, incorrect, not a proportion

D. 1/4 and 9/36

1*36 = 4*9
36 = 36, correct, this is a proportion

Answer:

μ =2.23

$\sigma_x^2= 1.49$

$\sigma_x=1.22$

Step-by-step explanation:

Radio(x) weeks P(x)

0 5 5/100 = 0.05

1 27 27/100=0.27

2 27 27/100 = 0.27

3 27 27/100 = 0.27

4 9 9/100=0.09

5 5 5/100=0.05

We know that

Mean ,μ

$\mu =\sum x.P(x)$

μ = 0 x 0.05 + 1 x 0.27 + 2 x 0.27 + 3 x 0.27 + 4 x 0 .09 + 5 x 0.05

μ =2.23

$\sigma_x^2= \sum x^2\times P(x)-(\sum x.P(x))^2$

$\sigma_x^2= 0^2\times 0.05+ 1^2\times 0.27+ 2^2\times 0.27+ 3^2\times 0.27+ 4^2\times 0.09+5^2\times 0.05-2.23^2$

$\sigma_x^2= 1.49$

$\sigma_x= \sqrt{\sigma_x^2}$

$\sigma_x=1.22$
