Answer: x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
it is 6 becuase when you subtract 17-5 you will get 12 ad to get 12 you need to multiply 2x6 so x=6
Answer: In mathematics, a variable is a symbol which functions as a placeholder for varying expression or quantities, and is often used to represent an arbitrary element of a set. In addition to numbers, variables are commonly used to represent vectors, matrices and functions
Step-by-step explanation:A symbol for a value we don't know yet. It is usually a letter like x or y.
Example: in x + 2 = 6, x is the variable.
Why "variable" when it may have just one value? In the case of x + 2 = 6 we can solve it to find that x = 4. But in something like y = x + 2 (a linear equation) x can have many values. In general it is much easier to always call it a variable even though in some cases it is a single value.
This is a binomial experiment and you'll use the binomial probability distribution because:
- There are two choices for each birth. Either you get a girl or you get a boy. So there are two outcomes to each trial. This is where the "bi" comes from in "binomial" (bi means 2).
- Each birth is independent of any other birth. The probability of getting a girl is the same for each trial. In this case, the probability is p = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%
- There are fixed number of trials. In this case, there are 5 births so n = 5 is the number of trials.
Since all of those conditions above are met, this means we have a binomial experiment.
Some textbooks may split up item #2 into two parts, but I chose to place them together since they are similar ideas.
Answer:
To find average, please add all the numbers together:
4.2+...+2.25=17.25
Now, divide by 5, the number of terms:
17.25/5=3.45
