The standard deviation for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups is 3.1305.

<h3>Standard Deviation</h3>

In statistics, the standard deviation is a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values. A low standard deviation indicates that the values tend to be close to the mean of the set, while a high standard deviation indicates that the values are spread out over a wider range.

Let X be the number of people with genetic mutation is a group of 500,

The formula of standard deviation is given as

SD=\sqrt{n*p(1-p)} \\SD=\sqrt{500*0.02*0.98} \\SD=3.1305

The standard deviation of the given sample is 3.1305

Find the polar equation of the conic with the focus at the pole, directrix x = -5, and eccentricity 2.
prohojiy [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Directrix, d= -5, and eccentricity, e = 2.

The polar equation of the conic is given by :

r=\dfrac{ed}{1-e\cos\theta}

Put all the values,

r=\dfrac{-5\times 2}{1-2\cos\theta}\\\\=\dfrac{-10}{1-2\cos\theta}

As e>1, it is a hyperbola. Hence, this is the required solution.

Write a linear equation that represents the cost of buying T-shirts from Paula’s Printing. Identify the meaning of each variable
vivado [14]

Answer:

y=21.50x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of t-shirts

y ----> the cost of buying T-shirts from Paula’s Printing in dollars

take two points from the given data

we have

(2,43) and (4,86)

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values in the formula

m=\frac{86-43}{4-2}

m=\frac{43}{2}=\$21.50\ per\ t-shirt

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=21.50

(x1,y1)=(2,43)

substitute

y-43=21.50(x-2)

step 3

Convert to slope intercept form

y=mx+b

Isolate the variable y

y-43=21.50x-43

y=21.50x-43+43

y=21.50x

This linear equation represent a proportional relationship (the line passes through the origin)

The coin box of a vending machine contains $6.20 in dimes and quarters. There are 32 coins in all. How many of each kind are the
Lady_Fox [76]
Let d and q be the number of dimes and quarters respectively.

10 cents* d+ 25 cents* q = 620 cents ($6.20 = 620 cents)
⇒ 10d + 25q = 620 (1)

On the other hand, we have: d+ q= 32 (coins) (2)

From (1) and (2), we solve the set of equations.

The final answer is d= 12 coins and q= 20 coins.
