Find the variance of this probability distribution. Round to two decimal places.​

Answer:

Variance = 4.68

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the variance is:

\sigma^{2} =\frac{\Sigma(X- \mu)^{2}}{N} \\or \\ \sigma^{2} =\frac{\Sigma(X)^{2}}{N} -\mu^{2} \\

Where:

X: Values \\\mu: Mean \\N: Number\ of\ values

The mean can be calculated as each value multiplied by its probability

\mu = 0*0.4 + 1*0.3 + 2*0.1+3*0.15+ 4*0.05=1.15

\frac{\Sigma (X)^{2}}{N} =\frac{(0^{2}+1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+4^{2})}{5} =6

Replacing the mean and the summatory of X:

\sigma^{2} = \frac{\Sigma(X)^{2}}{N} -\mu^{2} \\= 6 - 1.15^{2}\\= 4.6775

Solve Tan^2x/2-2 cos x = 1 for 0 &lt; or equal to theta &lt; greater or equal to 1.
mixer [17]

Answer:

x = theta = 0°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the trigonometry function

Tan²x/2-2 cos x = 1

Tan²x-4cosx = 2 ... 1

From trigonometry identity

Sec²x = tan²x+1

tan²x = sec²x-1 ... 2

Substituting 2 into 1, we have:

sec²x-1 -4cosx = 2

Note that secx = 1/cosx

1/cos²x - 1 - 4cosx = 2

Let cosx. = P

1/P² - 1 - 4P = 2

1-P²-4P³ = 2P²

4P³+2P²+P²-1 = 0

4P³+3P² = 1

P²(4P+3) = 1

P² = 1 and 4P+3 = 1

P = ±1 and P = -3/4

Since cosx = P

If P = 1

Cosx = 1

x = arccos1

x = 0°

If x = -1

cosx = -1

x = arccos(-1)

x = 180°

Since our angle must be between 0 and 1 therefore x = 0°

A line that passes through the points (2,7) and (6,15)<br> Show work.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we first need to find the slope. For that we use slope intercept form.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (15 - 7)/(6 -2)

m = 8/4

m =2

Now that we have this, we can use the slope and either point in slope-intercept form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 7 = 2(x - 2)

y - 7 = 2x - 4

y = 2x + 3
