Answer and Explanation:
Given : The random variable x has the following probability distribution.
To find :
a. Is this probability distribution valid? Explain and list the requirements for a valid probability distribution.
b. Calculate the expected value of x.
c. Calculate the variance of x.
d. Calculate the standard deviation of x.
Solution :
First we create the table as per requirements,
x P(x) xP(x) x² x²P(x)
0 0.25 0 0 0
1 0.20 0.20 1 0.20
2 0.15 0.3 4 0.6
3 0.30 0.9 9 2.7
4 0.10 0.4 16 1.6
∑P(x)=1 ∑xP(x)=1.8 ∑x²P(x)=5.1
a) To determine that table shows a probability distribution we add up all five probabilities if the sum is 1 then it is a valid distribution.
Yes it is a probability distribution.
b) The expected value of x is defined as
c) The variance of x is defined as
d) The standard deviation of x is defined as
Answer:
b/a
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,(b^-2)/a*(b^-3)
or,(b^-2+3)/a
or,b/a
Answer:
The conclusion is invalid.
The required diagram is shown below:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided statement.
Great tennis players use Hexrackets. Therefore, if you use a Hexracket, you are a great tennis player.
From the above statement we can concluded that Great tennis players use Hexrackets. But it may be possible that some people who use a haxracket are not great tennis player.
Therefore, the conclusion is invalid.
The required diagram is shown below:
Answer: 34%.
By definition of normal distribution, ≈68% of the data is within 1 standard deviation of the mean. Therefore 68% of IQs are between 85 and 115, and half of that is on the lower end, 85 to 100.
Answer:
Plan B
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply 21 by $2.50 you get $52.5 then add $5 you get 57.5 and that's you outcome for Plan A
but if you multiply 21 by $1.50 you get $31.5 then add $24 you get $55.5 so the best and cheapest plan would be Plan B
