The correct answer is:

$19.99.

Explanation:

33 1/3% is equal to taking 1/3 of a number. To take 1/3 of a number, we multiply by 1/3:

29.99(1/3) = 29.99/3 = 9.9966666667 ≈ $10

This means the price is marked down by $10. This makes the new price 29.99-10 = 19.99

Find the mean, variance &a standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p.

MrMuchimi

A random variable following a binomial distribution over $n$ trials with success probability $p$ has PMF

$f_X(x)=\dbinom nxp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Because it's a proper probability distribution, you know that the sum of all the probabilities over the distribution's support must be 1, i.e.

$\displaystyle\sum_xf_X(x)=\sum_{x=0}^n\binom nxp^x(1-p)^{n-x}=1$

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

$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle\sum_xf_X(x)=\sum_{x=0}^nx\binom nxp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle\sum_{x=1}^nx\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle\sum_{x=1}^n\frac{n!}{(x-1)!(n-x)!}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle np\sum_{x=1}^n\frac{(n-1)!}{(x-1)!((n-1)-(x-1))!}p^{x-1}(1-p)^{(n-1)-(x-1)}$
$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle np\sum_{x=0}^n\frac{(n-1)!}{x!((n-1)-x)!}p^x(1-p)^{(n-1)-x}$
$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle np\sum_{x=0}^n\binom{n-1}xp^x(1-p)^{(n-1)-x}$
$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle np\sum_{x=0}^{n-1}\binom{n-1}xp^x(1-p)^{(n-1)-x}$

The remaining sum has a summand which is the PMF of yet another binomial distribution with $n-1$ trials and the same success probability, so the sum is 1 and you're left with

$\mathbb E(x)=np=126\times0.27=34.02$

You can similarly derive the variance by computing $\mathbb V(X)=\mathbb E(X^2)-\mathbb E(X)^2$ , but I'll leave that as an exercise for you. You would find that $\mathbb V(X)=np(1-p)$ , so the variance here would be

$\mathbb V(X)=125\times0.27\times0.73=24.8346$

The standard deviation is just the square root of the variance, which is

$\sqrt{\mathbb V(X)}=\sqrt{24.3846}\approx4.9834$

Gertrude takes out a $5,500 subsidized stafford loan, which must be paid back in ten years. gertrude will graduate four years af

Leno4ka [110]

The total amount of interest will Gertrude pay by the time the subsidized Stafford loan is repaid is $2094.80.

<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>

Compound interest is the amount charged on the principal amount and the accumulated interest with a fixed rate of interest for a time period.

The formula for the final amount with the compound interest formula can be given as,

$A=P\times\left(1+\dfrac{r}{n\times100}\right)^{nt}\\$

Here, A is the final amount (principal plus interest amount) on the principal amount P of with the rate r of in the time period of t.

Gertrude will graduate four years after taking out the loan. if the loan has an interest rate of 6.8%, compounded monthly, and Gertrude makes monthly payments.

Put the values in the above formula as,

$5500=P_{mt}\times\left(1-\dfrac{6.8}{12\times100}\right)^{-12\times10}\\P_{mt}=63.29$
