Answer:

The standard deviation of this distribution is 0.8850.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each U.S. mortgage in the sample, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is delinquent, or it is not. The probabilities of each mortgages being delinquent are independent from one another. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

11% of U.S. mortgages were delinquent last year.

This means that p = 0.11

A random sample of eight mortgages was selected. What is standard deviation of this distribution?

This is \sqrt{V(X)} when n = 8

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{8*0.11*0.89} = 0.8850

The standard deviation of this distribution is 0.8850.

Variable termes X-12-3X+22
adell [148]

Answer: x + 12 = 3x + -22

12 + x = 3x + -22

Reorder the terms:

12 + x = -22 + 3x

Solving

12 + x = -22 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

12 + x + -3x = -22 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: x + -3x = -2x

12 + -2x = -22 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

12 + -2x = -22 + 0

12 + -2x = -22

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + -2x = -22 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + -2x = -22 + -12

-2x = -22 + -12

Combine like terms: -22 + -12 = -34

-2x = -34

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = 17

Simplifying

x = 17
