Kayla is saving $10 each week for a college fund. On her birthday, her aunt gave her $45 to add to the fund. If she has a total

of $255 in the fund, determine how many weeks she has been saving.

255-45-10=200

1 week

200/10=20

20 weeks plus one week equals 21 weeks

Thank you have a day!

Draw a line plot to correctly display the data 4,5,6,9,13,14,14,14,15 mean= median= mode= range=

ziro4ka [17]

Mean=10.4 since you add all the numbers which gives you 94 and divide by how many they are and that is 9
median=13 (middle number)
mode=14 constant seen number
range= 11 because 15 minus 4 is 11 (difference between your lowest and highest value
a line plot is another word for dot plot so just use 1 -20 and arrange the number
hope this helps

An certain brand of upright freezer is available in three different rated capacities: 16 ft3, 18 ft3, and 20 ft3. Let X = the ra

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

$E(X)=16\cdot 0.3+18\cdot 0.1+20\cdot 0.6=18.6$

$E(X^2)=16^2\cdot 0.3+18^2\cdot 0.1+20^2\cdot 0.6=349.2$

$V(X) = E(X^2)-[E(X)]^2=349.2-(18.6)^2=3.24$

The expected price paid by the next customer to buy a freezer is $466

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given we know the probability mass function (pmf) of random variable X.

$\left|\begin{array}{c|ccc}x&16&18&20\\p(x)&0.3&0.1&0.6\end{array}\right|$

<em>Point a:</em>

The Expected value or the mean value of X with set of possible values D, denoted by <em>E(X)</em> or <em>μ </em>is

$E(X) = $\sum_{x\in D} x\cdot p(x)$

Therefore

$E(X)=16\cdot 0.3+18\cdot 0.1+20\cdot 0.6=18.6$

If the random variable X has a set of possible values D and a probability mass function, then the expected value of any function h(X), denoted by <em>E[h(X)]</em> is computed by

$E[h(X)] = $\sum_{D} h(x)\cdot p(x)$

So $h(X) = X^2$ and

$E[h(X)] = $\sum_{D} h(x)\cdot p(x)\\E[X^2]=$\sum_{D}x^2\cdot p(x)\\ E(X^2)=16^2\cdot 0.3+18^2\cdot 0.1+20^2\cdot 0.6\\E(X^2)=349.2$

The variance of X, denoted by V(X), is

$V(X) = $\sum_{D}E[(X-\mu)^2]=E(X^2)-[E(X)]^2$

Therefore

$V(X) = E(X^2)-[E(X)]^2\\V(X)=349.2-(18.6)^2\\V(X)=3.24$

<em>Point b:</em>

We know that the price of a freezer having capacity X is 60X − 650, to find the expected price paid by the next customer to buy a freezer you need to:

From the rules of expected value this proposition is true:

$E(aX+b)=a\cdot E(x)+b$

We have a = 60, b = -650, and <em>E(X)</em> = 18.6. Therefore

The expected price paid by the next customer is

$60\cdot E(X)-650=60\cdot 18.6-650=466$

Graph the function h (x) = -3x-1.

Stolb23 [73]

Just connect the dots
the -1 is where it passes through the y axis (up and down line)
the -3 is the slope, so every 1 space it goes over it goes 3 down
