Answer:

(a) The probability distribution is valid.

(b) The probability that x = 30 is 0.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability distribution of the random variable <em>X</em> is:

<em>    x</em>:  20   |  25  |  30   |   35

f (<em>x</em>): 0.20 | 0.15 | 0.30 | 0.35

(a)

The properties of a probability distribution are:

  1. 0 ≤ P (X) ≤ 1
  2. ∑ P (X) = 1

All the probability value are more than 0 and less than 1.

Compute the sum of all the probabilities as follows:

\sum P(X)=0.20+0.15+0.30+0.35=1

The sum of all probabilities is 1.

Thus, the probability distribution is valid.

(b)

Consider the probability distribution table.

The probability of <em>X</em> = 30 is,

P (X = 30) = 0.30.

Thus, the probability that x = 30 is 0.30.

Convert 3.521 g to ___ mg
inna [77]

To convert any unit to it's "milli-" form always multiply the given value by 1000. The new value will be the value of in the "milli-" form.

The question asked to us is to convert 3.521 g to mg (or milligram). Thus, all that we need to do is to multiply 3.521 with 1000 and we will get the corresponding value in milligrams. Thus, in mg, 3.521 g is:

3.521\times 1000=3521 mg

He makes commission of 15% on everything he sells.....so if he sells 293 worth of stuff, then he would make 15% of 293

15% of 293.....turn ur percent to a decimal..." of " means multiply

In February, Alec had 1,525 visitors to his website. In March, he had 1,385 visitors to his website. What is the percentage decr
Helga [31]
A proportion box can be used to solve this problem. First, we need to compute the difference or change in the original amount of visitors Alec had (in February) and the new amount of visitors (in March). 

1,525 - 1, 385 = 140

We place this amount (140) in the top left of our box, and we place the original amount (1,525) in the bottom left of our box. We are looking for the percentage decrease, so that box in the upper right will stay empty. The number 100 always goes in the bottom right of our percent proportion box. 

(The attached image will show an example of how to set this up). 

Our last step is to cross multiply and divide. 

140 x 100 = 14,000

14,000 ÷ 1,525 = 9.18

So, the percentage decrease of the number of visitors to Alec's website from February to March was 9.18%.
