What is the value of y when x= 2y <br> 4x-3=0.4-2y

A genetics experiment involves a population of fruit flies consisting of 1 male named Bart and 3 females named Charlene, Diana,

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

(b) $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1 male named Bart (b)

3 females named Charlene(c), Diana(d), and Erin(e).

Since there is replacement, the possible samples are:

bb, bc, be, bd, cb, cc, cd, ce, db, dc, dd, de, eb, ec, ed, and ee.

Total Number of pairs = 16

Event of picking 2 males:bb

Event of 1 male:bc,cb,bd,db,be,eb

Event of picking 0 males:

cc, cd, ce, dc, dd, de, ec, ed, and ee.

$\begin{equation*} \begin{matrix}Proportion of males & Probability \\0 & 9/16 \\1 & 6/16 \\2 & 1/16 \end{matrix} \end{equation*}$

b. The mean of the sampling distribution

$\mu = (\frac{9}{16} X0 ) +(\frac{6}{16} X 1)+(\frac{1}{16} X 2) = \frac{8}{16} = \frac{1}{2}$

c. No; the proportion of males is $\frac{1}{4}$ while the mean is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

B. No, the sample mean is not equal to the population proportion of males. These values are not always equal, because proportion is an unbiased estimator.

if 3 buckets containing 2kg of paint has been used to paint a fence 90 m long and 80 cm high. how many buckets of 2kg of paint a

Anit [1.1K]

3 buckets covers 90m x 80cm = 3 buckets for 90x0.8 = 3 for 72

x buckets covers 200m x 120cm = x buckets for 200x1.2 = x for 240

3/72 = x/240
720 = 72x
x =10 buckets of paint to cover 200mx120cm fence

Answer:

a) 0.01111

b) 0.4679

c) 0.33747

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The number of accidents per week can be treated as a Poisson distribution.

Mean number of accidents per week = 4.5
