Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance that a is to b is b-a=17-2=15.

The line segment from a=2 to b=17 has length 15.

We need to know what is 3/5 of 15.

3/5 of 15 means what is 3/5 times 15?

(3/5)(15)=3(3)=9

So this means we are looking to make a line segment that is 9 units from 2 which is 2 to 11.

So 11 is 3/5 the way from a=2 to b=17.

Let's check from 2 to 11 that is a length of 9 and from 2 to 17 that is a length of 15.

Is 9/15 equal to 3/5?

Yes, 9/15 can be reduced to 3/5.

The following function is probability Distribution function.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

9.60 ; - 60.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

F(x)=6(x+1) /25, x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

x = 0

F(0)=6(0+1)/25 = 6/25 = 0.24

x = 1

F(1)=6(1+1)/25 = 12/25 = 0.48

x = 2

F(2)=6(2+1)/25 = 18/25 = 0.72

x = 3

F(2)=6(3+1)/25 = 24/25 = 0.96

x = 4

F(2)=6(4+1)/25 = 30/25 = 1.2

X ______0 _____ 1 ______ 2 ______ 3 ____ 4

P(x) ___ 0.24 __ 0.48 ___ 0.72 ____ 0.96 __ 1.2

Mean, μ = Σx*p(x) :

(0*0.24) + (1*0.48) + (2*0.72) + (3*0.96) + (4*1.2)

= 9.60

Variance : Σx²*p(x) - μ²

(0^2*0.24) + (1^2*0.48) + (2^2*0.72) + (3^2*0.96) + (4^2*1.2) - 9.6^2

= 31.2 - 92.16

= - 60.96

1. S = 10 mm<br> V= S×S×S<br> =___×___×___<br> =____ mm3<br><br>​
Minchanka [31]

Hi there!  

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:  

V=1000\text{mm}^3

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

I am assuming by the infomation given that the figure is a cube.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Finding the volume of the cube...}}\\\\S = 10mm; V= s^3\\--------------\\\rightarrow V = 10^3\\\\\rightarrow V = 10 * 10 * 10\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{V=1000\text{mm}^3}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
