Answer: B. Population X will require a larger sample size

Step-by-step explanation:

  • If a random variable say p has skewed distribution (whether right or left ) in a population then a bigger sample size is needed to make sure that  the sampling distribution follows normal distribution.

Given : Two population distributions labeled X and Y.

Distribution X → highly skewed

Distribution Y → slightly skewed.

Since Distribution X more skewed so , we will need a larger sample size of population X as compared to Y.

Hence, the correct answer is B. Population X will require a larger sample size

We want to find the zeros of this polynomial: p(x) = (x - 1)(x + 3) * (2x + 1) Plot all the zeros (-intercepts) of the polynomia
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the function is a product, the zeros will occur when any term is equal to zero. For

(x-1)(x+3)(2x+1) the value will be zero when x=1,-3, or -1/2 so the points are

(-3,0), (-1/2,0), and (1,0)

Last​ year, a person wrote 139 checks. Let the random variable x represent the number of checks he wrote in one​ day, and assume
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Mean = 0.38082 checks per day

Variance = 0.38082

Standard deviation = 0.61711

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the variance (V) is equal to the mean value (μ), and the standard deviation (σ) is the square root of the variance.

A year has 365 days,, if 139 checks were written during a year, the mean number of checks written per day is:

E(x)=\mu=\frac{139}{365}\\ \mu=0.38082\ checks/day

Therefore, the variance and standard deviation are, respectively:

V=\mu=0.38082\\\sigma=\sqrt{V}=\sqrt{0.38082}\\ \sigma =0.61711

how to do this??? i would appreciate if you could answer the actual answer for the first one and explain how to do the process.
Hoochie [10]
For the first problem, a "fifth" means divided by 5, so "four-fifths of b" means (b/5)*4 or 4b/5

Subtract means to take away, so "6 subtracted from" means to "take away 6" or -6

As such, the answer to the problem would be 4b/6

The rest the problems are also just translating English to math.

A diver is a horizontal distance of 50 feet from a boat and 120 feet beneath the surface of the water. What distance will the di
amid [387]

Answer:

The answer is 130 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' Theorem:

120² + 50² = diagonal²

diagonal² = 16900ft

diagonal = √16900

= 130ft
