If y has moment-generating function m(t) = e 6(e t −1) , what is p(|y − µ| ≤ 2σ)?

Lostsunrise [7]

Since $\mathrm M_Y(t)=e^{6(e^t-1}$ , we know that $Y$ follows a Poisson distribution with parameter $\lambda=6$ .

Now assuming $\mu,\sigma$ denote the mean and standard deviation of $Y$ , respectively, then we know right away that $\mu=6$ and $\sigma=\sqrt6$ .

So,

$\mathbb P(|Y-\mu|\le2\sigma)=\mathbb P(6-2\sqrt6\le Y\le6+2\sqrt6)=\dfrac{66366}{175e^6}\approx0.940028$

y varies jointly as x and z, and y = 32 m, x = 6 m, and z = 8 m. What is the value of y when x = 5 m and z = 12 m

Fantom [35]

We are given y = kxz
We also know 32 = k×6×8, so k = 32/48 = 2/3.
We are then asked to solve:

$y = \frac{2}{3} \times 5 \times 12 = 40$

What is the seventh term of a sequence whose first term is 1 and whose common ratio is 3?

ikadub [295]

$\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of a geometric sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
a_1=1\\
r=3\\
n=7
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
a_7=1\cdot 3^{7-1}\implies a_7=1\cdot 3^6\implies a_7=1\cdot 729\implies a_7=729$

I would go with Jesses survey.

Unlike everyone else’s survey Jesse chose 6th grade students in random, causing a more unbiased research.

Komok [63]

This is one of those problems where you don't actually have to know anything. The only answer that is any combination of the two given numbers is the last one:
.. 8.4672*10¹³ miles

_____
That result is the product of 5.88*10¹² and 14.4.
