 length of  square = 18


x = side of square

x-7 = side of triangle

3(x-7) + 39 = 4x

3x-21 + 39 = 4x

3x+18 = 4x

18=x

square    18x4 =72(perimeter square)

triangle side  (18-7=11)

11x3 = 33(perimeter triangle) 

72-33=39

0.27 (repeating) into a fraction. Simplify if needed.
WARRIOR [948]
Dont ask me why...I cant really explain it...but if u have 1 repeating decimal, u put it over 9. If u have 2 repeating decimals, u put it over 99....3 repeating decimals, put it over 999.

Examples :
0.7 (repeating) = 7/9
0.27 (repeating) = 27/99 when simplified = 3/11 <===
0.444 (repeating = 444/999

Suppose that a college determines the following distribution for X = number of courses taken by a full-time student this semeste
lidiya [134]

Answer:

E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i) = 3*0.07 +4*0.4 +5*0.25 +6*0.28= 4.74In order to find the variance we need to calculate first the second moment given by:

E(X^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i) = 3^2*0.07 +4^2*0.4 +5^2*0.25 +6^2*0.28= 23.36And the variance is given by:

Var(X) = E(X^2) +[E(X)]^2 = 23.36 -[4.74]^2 = 0.8924

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{0.8924} =0.9447

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The expected value of a random variable X is the n-th moment about zero of a probability density function f(x) if X is continuous, or the weighted average for a discrete probability distribution, if X is discrete.

The variance of a random variable X represent the spread of the possible values of the variable. The variance of X is written as Var(X).  

Solution to the problem

For this case we have the following distribution given:

X          3      4       5        6

P(X)   0.07  0.4  0.25  0.28

We can calculate the mean with the following formula:

E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i) = 3*0.07 +4*0.4 +5*0.25 +6*0.28= 4.74

In order to find the variance we need to calculate first the second moment given by:

E(X^2) = \sum_{i=1}^n X^2_i P(X_i) = 3^2*0.07 +4^2*0.4 +5^2*0.25 +6^2*0.28= 23.36

And the variance is given by:

Var(X) = E(X^2) +[E(X)]^2 = 23.36 -[4.74]^2 = 0.8924

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{0.8924} =0.9447
