X can't simultaneously be equal to 1 and larger than 2, so the probability must be zero.

Did you mean to find the probability of the union? In that case, since the events are mutually exclusive, you would be able to write

\mathbb P((X=1)\cap(X\ge3))=\mathbb P(X=1)+\mathbb P(X\ge3)
=\mathbb P(X=1)+1-\mathbb P(X
=\mathbb P(X=1)+1-\mathbb P(X\le2)
=1+f_X(1)+F_X(2)

where f_X(x) is the probability density function and F_X(x) is the cumulative distribution function for the random variable X.

On a statistics examination the mean was 78 and the standard deviation was 10. (a) Determine the standard scores of two students
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

a) Grade = 93, Standard score = 1.5

Grade = 62, Standard score = -1.6

b) Standard scores = 0.6, Grade = 84

Standard scores = 1.2, Grade = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 78

Standard Deviation, σ = 10

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) Grade = 93

\text{Standard score } = \displaystyle\frac{93-78}{10} = 1.5

Grade = 62

\text{Standard score } = \displaystyle\frac{62-78}{10} = -1.6

b) We have to find grades of student

Standard scores = 0.6

\displaystyle\frac{x-78}{10} = 0.6\\\\x = (0.6)(10)+78 \\x = 84

Grade = 84

Standard scores = 1.2

\displaystyle\frac{x-78}{10} = 1.2\\\\x = (1.2)(10)+78 \\x = 90

Grade = 90

Find the number that makes the ratio equivalent to 3:8 6:_
erik [133]

Answer:

6:16

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer you do 3x_=6 which the missing number is 2, so you do 8x2=16 because whatever you multiply the first number by you have to do the same to the second number in fractions, ratios, etc.
