tester [92]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be a number

Rewrite the sentence into something that can be interpreted better:

A number subtracted from -5 is -2

Now you can translate the statement into an equation:

-5 - n = -2

Solve for n

-n = 3

n = -3

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

B) A/l

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, w. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Divide l from both sides of the equation:

A = l * w

(A)/l = (l)/l * w

w = A/l

B) A/l is your answer.

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

B. E(x²) = 1/n

Step-by-step explanation:

The n candidates for a job have been ranked 1,2,3....n. Let x be the rank of a randomly selected candidate. Therefore, the PMF of X is given as

P(x) = {1/n, x = 1,2...n}

Therefore,

Expectation of X

E(x) = summation {xP(×)}

= summation {X×1/n}

= 1/n summation{x}

= 1/n×n(n+1)/2

= n+1/2

Thus, E(x) = 1/n×n(n+1)/2

Value of E(x²)

E(x²) = summation {x²P(×)}

= summation{x²×1/n}

= 1/n
