The expected value of the inseam length of the jeans is found as

30% of 30+ 25% of 32+ 10% of 34+ 10% of 36 + 10% of 38 + 15% of 40

= \frac{30}{100}\times30 +\frac{25}{100}\times32+ \frac{10}{100}\times34+ \frac{10}{100}\times36 +\frac{10}{100}\times38+ \frac{15}{100}\times40

= 9+8+3.4+3.6+3.8+6=33.8

Hence, the third option 33.8 is the correct expected value.

For the 1,000-meter running event, Abby's mean time is 4.5 minutes with a standard deviation of 0.75 minutes. For the 800-meter
Lilit [14]

Answer:

He performed better in the 800 m race

Step-by-step explanation:

Obtain the standardized score for each event :

Zscore = (score - mean) / standard deviation

1000 meter :

Mean = 4.5 ; Standard deviation = 0.75 ; x = 4.1

Zscore = (4.1 - 4.5) / 0.75

Zscore = - 0.4 / 0.75 = - 0.5333

800 meter :

Mean = 3.2 ; Standard deviation = 0.4 ; x = 3

Zscore = (3 - 3.2) / 0.4

Zscore = - 0.2 / 0.4 = - 0.5

-0.5 > - 0.533

Hence, he performed better in the 800 m race

What does PEMDAS mean in math
Dahasolnce [82]

Hey there!

PEMDAS simply means (the OVERALL question answer)


• Parentheses
• Exponents
• Multiplication
• Division
• Addition
• Subtraction


Here’s an example

24 - 4^2 + 2 * 4

= 24 - 16 + 2 * 4

= 24 - 16 + 8

= 8 + 8

= 16

Thus, the answer for that equation is: 16


Often people remember PEMDAS by saying. (So, I’d advise you think of it like that way as well!)

• Please
• Excuse
• My
• Dear
• Aunt
• Sally


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
