Answer:

b. 42 people

Step-by-step explanation:

For each foreigner living in the U.S., there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are naturalized citizens, or they are not. The probability of a foreigner living in the U.S. not being a naturalized citizen is independent from other foreigners living in the U.S. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

"approximately 60% of foreign-born people who live in the U.S. are not naturalized citizens"

This means that p = 0.6

70 foreign-born people who live in the U.S

This means that n = 70

How many people would you expect to get that are not naturalized citizens?

E(X) = np = 70*0.6 = 42

So the correct answer is:

b. 42 people

If f(x)=2x and g(x)= 1/x, what is the domain of (f*g) (x)
postnew [5]

Answer:

The domain of (f*g) (x) is the set of all real numbers; ( -∞, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

(f*g) (x) simply means we obtain the product of f(x) and g(x). We are given that;

f(x)=2x

g(x)= 1/x

(f*g) (x) = f(x) * g(x)

(f*g) (x) = 2x * 1/x = 2

This is a horizontal line defined everywhere on the real line. The domain of  (f*g) (x) is thus ( -∞, ∞)
