The mean of the probability distribution is given by the expected value given by

E(x)=\sum xp(x) \\  \\ =0(0.53)+1(0.40)+2(0.05)+3(0.02) \\  \\ =0.40+0.10+0.06=0.56

The variance of the probability distribution is given by

Var(x)=(x-\bar{x})^2p(x) \\  \\ =(0-0.56)^2(0.53)+(1-0.56)^2(0.40)+(2-0.56)^2(0.05)\\+(3-0.56)^2(0.02) \\  \\ =(-0.56)^2(0.53)+0.44^2(0.40)+1.44^2(0.05)+2.44^2(0.02) \\  \\ =0.3136(0.53)+0.1936(0.40)+2.0736(0.05)+5.9536(0.02) \\  \\ =0.166208+0.07744+0.10368+0.119072=0.4664

The standard deviation is given by

\sigma(x)=\sqrt{Var(x)} \\  \\ =\sqrt{0.4664}=0.683

Which of the following is NOT true? Question 19 options: (3x2y5)3=27x6y15 (1000x12y20z−3)0=1 52‾‾√3=523 42×43= 165
bixtya [17]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Lets try to simplify each to check which one is incorrect so it will be NOT true

first one is :

distribute the exponent so :

(3x^2y^5)^3 =3^3x^{2*3}y^{5*3}

27x^6y^{15} CORRECT

Second one is :

(1000x^{12}y^{20}z^{-30})^{0} =1

CORRECT because anything raised to exponent 0 is 1 .

Last one is :

4^2 *4^3 = 4^{2+3}\\=4^{6}\\=(4)^{2*3}\\=16^{3}

so Last is<em> INCORRECT</em>
