Answer:

The variance and standard deviation of <em>X</em> are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

The variance and standard deviation of (20 - <em>X</em>) are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable <em>X</em> is defined as, <em>X</em> = number of defective items in the sample.

In a sample of 20 items there are 4 defective items.

The probability of selecting a defective item is:

P (X)=\frac{4}{20}=0.20

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 3 items are selected at random.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 3 and <em>p </em>= 0.20.

The variance of a Binomial distribution is:

V(X)=np(1-p)

Compute the variance of <em>X</em> as follows:

V(X)=np(1-p)=3\times0.20\times(1-0.20)=0.48

Compute the standard deviation (σ (X)) as follows:

\sigma (X)=\sqrt{V(X)}=\sqrt{0.48}=0.693

Thus, the variance and standard deviation of <em>X</em> are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

Now compute the variance of (20 - X) as follows:

V(20-X)=V(20)+V(X)-2Cov(20,X)=0+0.48-0=0.48

Compute the standard deviation of (20 - X) as follows:

\sigma (20-X)=\sqrt{V(20-X)} =\sqrt{0.48}0.693

Thus, the variance and standard deviation of (20 - <em>X</em>) are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

The length of a rectangle is 3 meter shorter than3 times its width.Find the length and width if the perimeter is 210 meters
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

length = 78 m , width = 27 m

Step-by-step explanation:

let w represent width then length l = 3w - 3

the perimeter (P) is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w = 210 , substitute values

2(3w - 3) + 2w = 210 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

6w - 6 + 2w = 210

8w - 6 = 210 ( add 6 to both sides )

8w = 216 ( divide both sides by 8 )

w = 27 and l = 3(27) - 3 = 81 - 3 = 78

Then length = 78 m and width = 27 m

Justin lives 3 2 5 miles from his grandfather's house. Enter the mixed number as a fraction greater than one. 3 2 5 =
elena-s [515]

Answer: \dfrac{17}{5} miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express a mixed fraction as an improper fraction.

The process is as follows:

a\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{ac+b}{c}

The given mixed number = 3\dfrac25 miles

This can be represented as

3\dfrac25=\dfrac{3\times5+2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{15+2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{15+2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{17}{5}>1

Hence, the required fraction= \dfrac{17}{5} miles
