Answer:

11/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to know the total number of instructors. This is equal to 7+5+4+3 = 19 instructors.

The probability of selecting a science instructor is 4/19

The probability of selecting a math instructor is 7/19

The probability of selecting either a science or a maths instructor is 4/19 + 7/19 = 11/19

Hardy's plant grows rapidly. It grows by 10cm every 2 years. How much taller will hardy's plant be in 5 years?
nirvana33 [79]
It will be 25cm long Since it growing 10cm every 2 years it must be growing 5cm every year 10/2=5/1 To find total growth in 5 years multiply the cm it grows every year by the number of years so 5yearsX 5cm =25cm

A grab bag contains 12 packages worth $.70 each, 15 packages $.40 cents each, and 25 packages worth $.30 each. what is the expec
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The expected value of the discrete distribution, if you have to pay $.50 to pick one package at random, is of -$0.08.

<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.

For this problem, considering the cost of $0.5, the distribution is given as follows:

  • P(X = 0.2) = 12/(12 + 15 + 23) = 12/50 = 0.24.
  • P(X = -0.1) = 15/(12 + 15 + 23) = 15/50 = 0.3.
  • P(X = -0.2) = 23/(12 + 15 + 23) = 23/50 = 0.46.

Hence the expected value is given by:

E(X) = 0.2 x 0.24 - 0.3 x 0.1 - 0.2 x 0.46 = -$0.08.

Solve for x xx: 7 x + 4 9 ∘ 7x+49 ​∘ ​​ 2 x + 9 4 ∘ 2x+94 ​∘ ​​
Murrr4er [49]
The value for x is 9 because:

7x +49 = 2x + 94
7x-2x=45
5x=45
x=45/5
x=9
