The final exam grade distribution for all students in the introductory statistics class at a local community college is displaye

d in the table, with A = 4, B = 3, C = 2, D = 1, and F = 0. Let X represent the grade for a randomly selected student from the class. A 2-column table with 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled grade with entries 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. Column 2 is labeled probability with entries 0.4, 0.32, 0.17, 0.08, 0.03. What is the mean of the distribution? 2 3 2.98 3.50

The mean of the discrete distribution that models this situation is of 2.98.

<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.

Considering the table, the probability distribution is given by:

  • P(X = 4) = 0.4.
  • P(X = 3) = 0.32.
  • P(X = 2) = 0.17.
  • P(X = 1) = 0.08.
  • P(X = 0) = 0.03.

Hence the mean is given by:

E(X) = 4 x 0.4 + 3 x 0.32 + 2 x 0.17 + 1 x 0.08 + 0 x 0.03 = 2.98.

Choose the correct response. Homeowners insurance covers loss of a home caused by which of the following two factors? fire inabi
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

fire and in some places natural disasters but it costs.

Step-by-step explanation:

fire

There isn't universal coverage on the other two. If you can't pay your mortgage, generally the banks get very upset and foreclose. Banks are not very understanding about late mortgage payments.

natural disaster is usually not covered. Flooding earthquakes are usually not part of insurance coverage. Hurricanes aren't either. You can get such coverage, but it likely is not cheap.

Property taxes will cause the city to put a lien on your dwelling and there is usually no insurance for that.

Fire and with a lot of extra money natural disaster are your only choices.

Form a polynomial, f(x), with real coefficients having the given degree and zeros.
Ostrovityanka [42]
The question indicates that 4i and 5i are imaginary so, they cannot have real roots.

f(x) = (x - 4i)(x + 4i)(x - 5i)(x + 5i)
Then simplify it and it would look like this,

(x^2 + 16)(x^2 + 25)

Simply it again.
x^4 + 16x^2 + 25x^2 + 400 x^4 + 41x^2 + 400 <span>
The polynomial that is required is 
</span><span>f(x) = x^4 + 41x^2 + 400</span>
