grigory [225]

Answer:

x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangle's angles must equal when added up to 180.

76 + 49 + x = 180

combine terms

125 + x = 180

x = 55

A right cubic prism has edges of 2 1/2 inches. How

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Option D, the volume is 15.625 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

For a cube of side length L, the volume is:

V = L^3

for the smaller cubes, we know that each one has a side length of 1 in, then the volume of each small cube is:

v = (1in)^3 = 1 in^3

Then:

1 in^3 is equivalent to one small cube

Here we know that the side length of our cube is (2 + 1/2) in

Then the volume of this cube will be:

V = [ (2 + 1/2) in]^3

To simplify the calculation, we can write:

2 + 1/2 = 4/2 + 1/2 = 5/2

Then:

V = ( 5/2 in)^3 = (5^3)/(2^3) in^3 = 125/8 in^3 = 15.626 in^3

This means that 15.625 small cubes will fill the prism.

So the correct option is D.

The market and Stock J have the following probability distributions:

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1) $E(M) = 14*0.3 + 10*0.4 + 19*0.3 = 13.9 \%$

2) $E(J)= 22*0.3 + 4*0.4 + 12*0.3 = 11.8 \%$

3) $E(M^2) = 14^2*0.3 + 10^2*0.4 + 19^2*0.3 = 207.1$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (M)= E(M^2) -[E(M)]^2 = 207.1 -(13.9^2)= 13.89$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{13.89}= 3.73$

4) $E(J^2) = 22^2*0.3 + 4^2*0.4 + 12^2*0.3 =194.8$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (J)= E(J^2) -[E(J)]^2 = 194.8 -(11.8^2)= 55.56$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{55.56}= 7.45$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following distributions given:

Probability M J

0.3 14% 22%

0.4 10% 4%

0.3 19% 12%

Part 1

The expected value is given by this formula:

$E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)$

And replacing we got:

$E(M) = 14*0.3 + 10*0.4 + 19*0.3 = 13.9 \%$

Part 2

$E(J)= 22*0.3 + 4*0.4 + 12*0.3 = 11.8 \%$

Part 3

We can calculate the second moment first with the following formula:

$E(M^2) = 14^2*0.3 + 10^2*0.4 + 19^2*0.3 = 207.1$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (M)= E(M^2) -[E(M)]^2 = 207.1 -(13.9^2)= 13.89$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{13.89}= 3.73$

Part 4

We can calculate the second moment first with the following formula:

$E(J^2) = 22^2*0.3 + 4^2*0.4 + 12^2*0.3 =194.8$

And the variance would be given by:

$Var (J)= E(J^2) -[E(J)]^2 = 194.8 -(11.8^2)= 55.56$

And the deviation would be:

$Sd(M) = \sqrt{55.56}= 7.45$
