Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \tt{33.33}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\star{ \:  \sf{ \: Suppose, \: the \: number \: be \: x}}

\star \:  \sf \: Create \: an \: equation \: and \: solve \: for \: x

\underline{ \underline{ \mathfrak{lets \: solve}}} :

\sf{ \: 60\% \:  \: of \:  \: x \:  = 20}

\text{Step \: 1} :  \sf{ \: Convert \: percentage \: ( \%) \: into \: fraction}

\sf{To \: do \: so, \: Divide \: it \: by \: 100 \: and \: remove \: the \: \% \: symbol. \: }

\sf{Then, \: Simplify \: the \: fraction \: to \: its \: lowest \: term.}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{60}{100} x = 20}}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{ \cancel{60}   ^{ \:  \: 3} }{ \cancel{100} \: ^{ \: 5}  } x = 20}}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{3}{5}x = 20}}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{0.6x = 20}}

\text{Step \: 2} :  \sf{Divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 0.6}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{0.6x}{0.6}  =  \frac{20}{0.6}}}

\text{Step \: 3} :  \sf{Calculate}

\hookrightarrow{ \sf{x = 33.33}}

The required number is 33.33

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Answer:

33.33

Step-by-step explanation:

60% of 33.33 is 20. 100% of 33.33 is 33.33, therefore 60 percent of 33.33 equals 20.

Let X denote the distance (m) that an animal moves from its birth site to the first territorial vacancy it encounters. Suppose t
andrezito [222]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: For an exponential distribution, the probability distribution function is:

f(x) = λ.e^{-\lambda.x}

and the cumulative distribution function, which describes the probability distribution of a random variable X, is:

F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda.x}

(a) <u>Probability</u> of distance at most <u>100m</u>, with λ = 0.0143:

F(100) = 1 - e^{-0.0143.100}

F(100) = 0.76

<u>Probability</u> of distance at most <u>200</u>:

F(200) = 1 - e^{-0.0143.200}

F(200) = 0.94

<u>Probability</u> of distance between <u>100 and 200</u>:

F(100≤X≤200) = F(200) - F(100)

F(100≤X≤200) = 0.94 - 0.76

F(100≤X≤200) = 0.18

(b) The mean, E(X), of a probability distribution is calculated by:

E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda}

E(X) = \frac{1}{0.0143}

E(X) = 69.93

The standard deviation is the square root of variance,V(X), which is calculated by:

σ = \sqrt{\frac{1}{\lambda^{2}} }

σ = \sqrt{\frac{1}{0.0143^{2}} }

σ = 69.93

<u>Distance exceeds the mean distance by more than 2σ</u>:

P(X > 69.93+2.69.93) = P(X > 209.79)

P(X > 209.79) = 1 - P(X≤209.79)

P(X > 209.79) = 1 - F(209.79)

P(X > 209.79) = 1 - (1 - e^{-0.0143*209.79})

P(X > 209.79) = 0.0503

(c) Median is a point that divides the value in half. For a probability distribution:

P(X≤m) = 0.5

\int\limits^m_0 f({x}) \, dx = 0.5

\int\limits^m_0 {\lambda.e^{-\lambda.x}} \, dx = 0.5

\lambda.\frac{e^{-\lambda.x}}{-\lambda} = -e^{-\lambda.x} + e^{0}

1 - e^{-\lambda.m} = 0.5

-e^{-\lambda.m} = - 0.5

ln(e^{-0.0143.m}) = ln(0.5)

-0.0143.m = - 0.0693

m = 48.46
