Answer:  Mean = 20 and standard deviation = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the success of getting the correct answer.

Here, the total number of trials(n) = 100

The probability of getting the correct answer, p = 1/5

Thus, the mean of the number of correct answer,

\mu_x= np

\mu_x= 100\times 1/5

\mu_x= 20

Now, the standard deviation, \sigma_x= \sqrt{n\times p\times (1-p)}

\sigma_x= \sqrt{100\times 1/5\times 4/5}

\sigma_x= \sqrt{16}

\sigma_x= 4

Thus, First option is correct.

You are hiking on a trail that leads down from the top of a mountain. At 11 A.M. You are at an elevation of 5400 feet. At 3 P.M.
Tems11 [23]

Step-by-step explanation:

You hiked 5400 - 3800 = 1600 feet in 4 hours so the mean change is 1600 / 4 = 400 ft/hour.
